Gallego: "They're going and racially profiling people and rounding up Americans until they can prove their citizenship. That money came from kicking millions and millions of Americans off Medicaid. It was the same bill. They cut Medicaid to expand ICE."

ICE agents are parading around Americaโ€™s streets in the same gear I wore in combat overseas.

Itโ€™s Commando Cosplay. And itโ€™s bullshit.

Federal agents should be targeting violent criminals, not murdering American civilians.

The hidden ICE blueprint that should horrify every American | Will Bunch An internal Department of Homeland Security document shows how ICE plans to cram thousands of detained human beings inside a Georgia warehouse.

โ€ชWill Bunchโ€ฌ: Kristi Noem's DHS definitely did not want you to see this. But officials in Social Circle, Ga. trying to stop the regime's plan to turn a massive warehouse into a concentration camp for 8,500 humans have shared the floor plan. It's worse than you think.

The UK and Other Democracies Hold the Epstein Elite Accountable Americaโ€™s tolerance of Epstein associates is a national disgrace

According to the New Yorker, Donald Trump and his family profited off the presidency by an estimated $4 billion in 2025 โ€” mostly through shady crypto deals.

That amounts to $456,621 per hour.

But how are you doing?

Armed Man Shot Dead at Mar-a-Lago Was Fixated on Epstein Files, Text Shows The armed man shot and killed by Secret Service agents outside President Donald Trump's Mar-a-Lago property Sunday had grown increasingly obsessed with the Epstein files and was also a vocal supporter...

With caution that the source here is TMZ... this is insane if true. The way they have this framed up, the guy who Secret Service shot this morning was a MAGA guy disillusioned by the Epstein Files shitshow so severely he allegedly rolled up to Mar-a-Lago armed

Mexican cartel boss 'El Mencho' killed in military raid The operation set off a wave of violence, with torched cars and gunmen blocking highways in more than half a dozen states.

I might be off on this, but something feels amiss to me. Coverage is spotty and Trump is silent thus far.
