No one should profit off of the loss of liberty of another.

I don’t think anyone is prepared for what they just did w/ ICE.

This is not a simple budget increase. It is an explosion - making ICE bigger than the FBI, US Bureau of Prisons, DEA,& others combined.

It is setting up to make what’s happening now look like child’s play. And people are disappearing.

Any chance that the Newark issue is just the Trump administration trying to dirty up Buttigieg?

Or food inspections.

Clueless. Who's running this shitshow?

David Lipsky’s book The Parrot and the Igloo provides some additional shenanigans.

I didn’t want this to happen.

I voted for the smart black lady.

No matter what happens next, the bigger picture damage is done.

Breaching agreements with irrational tariffs. Antagonizing NATO allies. The US is no longer seen as a good faith actor.

It will take decades of consistency to rebuild the trust Trump broke in less than 3 months.

Private prisons in the US should be banned. No one should profit on someone else's loss of liberty.

It's simple. Everyone in the US enjoys the protections of the Constitution - even visitors. So if someone commits a crime here, you give them due process here. You charge them here, try them here, and sentence them here. You don't deport them to an offshore torture prison.

Foreign automakers will be forced to raise prices as tariff costs will be passed on to consumers. Domestic automakers will raise their prices to take advantage of higher priced models from their foreign competition. It would be foolish not to raise prices to whatever level that the market will bear.

The Supreme Court in Zadvydas v. Davis held that aliens, although not citizens are entitled to Due Process of law, and confirmed that all persons are protected and entitled to due process under the United States Constitution.

Private prisons in the US should be banned. No one should profit on someone else's loss of liberty.

I could write up why there’s no constitutional problem with the President using an auto-pen to sign official documents—or I could just post the 30-page 2005 opinion by George W. Bush’s Office of Legal Counsel that explains why in lots of detail.

I choose the latter:

A top economics reporter goes off script on national TV: “I am going to say this at risk of my job, but what President Trump is doing is insane.”

Canada the state would rank second only to California in size. 8 of Canada's provinces are larger than Wyoming with Ontario more populous than all but 5 states.

Let's see Trump offer to expand the country by 8 states if he is really serious, and then throw in DC and Puerto Rico for an even 60!

Hegseth Orders Pentagon to Stop Offensive Cyberoperations Against Russia The defense secretary’s instructions, which were given before President Trump’s blowup with the Ukrainian president, are apparently part of an effort to draw Russia into talks on the war.

Hegseth has ordered the Pentagon to STOP offensive cyber operations against Russia. This is insane. Russia is actively targeting the U.S., and the ability to conduct offensive operations (which was authorized by Trump in 2018!*) was at least one deterrent.

Nice, but all current US submarines are nuclear powered.

Free idea for federal employees:

1 - I supported and defended

2 - the Constitution of the United States

3 - against all enemies

4 - foreign

5 -- and domestic. 🇺🇸

Forget Patel for just a moment... If the 10-year term for the FBI director is not honored, then why does the same regime get to fire/force resign the current director, and reset the 10-year clock?

Only the best people...

My oath is to the Constitution of our state and of our country.

We don’t have kings in America – and I don’t intend to bend the knee to one.

I am not speaking up in service to my ambitions — but in deference to my obligations.

I'm not sure that I'll go that far, but based on our credit card bills... Costco and Lowe's are favorites.

Long past time to overturn Citizens United, and limit political contributions. We can't have the ones with the fattest wallets drown out the voices of the people.

repeated. Today’s deportation actions without due process is similarly offensive to me. I never intended my post to say that today’s actions are okay in any way… sorry for the confusion.

WW II nor what is being done under Trump’s administration with recent migrants. EO 9066 affected US citizens and non-citizens based only on their ancestry without due process, and if the government can do that to even citizens then they can do it to any other group. That action should never be ...

I did not intend to imply that imprisonment nor deportation based on heritage and skin color was okay under any circumstances. Slavery was an even more heinous offense; I wouldn't equate what was done to those enslaved with the US government's incarceration of those of Japanese ancestry during ...

I don't like our current approach with regard to immigrants to the US, but please don't equate it with the forced relocation and incarceration of US CITIZENS based on their heritage and skin color. Never forget, and never again!

If you wanted to cut waste, fraud, and abuse, you would empower the inspectors general.

If you wanted more waste, fraud, and abuse, you would fire them.
