Tulsi Gabbard and Trump's scheme to gut the intel agencies It's hard to envision a less suited intelligence chief. That’s a feature, not a bug.

Whatever your disdain for ICE agents, the ultimate blame here lies with Trump and his promises of mass deportation, Stephen Miller’s deportation targets, and the voters that empowered them. This is the version of America they created, even if some of those voters are having buyers remorse now.

The Trump administration is trying to bring back asbestos According to newly released court filings, the EPA is 'reconsidering' a 2024 ban on the last legal form of asbestos still used in the U.S.

Hundreds of thousands of Americans have died from asbestos-related diseases, with annual deaths continuing in the tens of thousands.
Asbestos removal is very expensive, cutting into corporate profits. Trump is getting his pockets lined & Americans will die.

ICE Imposes New Rules on Congressional Visits The policy specifies that ICE field offices are not subject to an existing law that allows members of Congress to make unannounced oversight visits to immigration facilities that “detain or otherwise house aliens.”

How My Reporting on the Columbia Protests Led to My Deportation As an Australian who wrote about the demonstrations while on campus, I gave my phone a superficial clean before flying to the U.S. I underestimated what I was up against.

This is shocking. Pure totalitarianism from DHS, and also blatantly unconstitutional.
