A former career DOJ guy told me a few weeks ago that prior to Trump, the FBI was the varsity team, DHI and ICE were junior varsity, and Border Patrol were like a drunken office softball team. And under Trump, the drunk softball guys are now in charge.

Did Tom Izzo not go into Bill Self’s home territory and snag the #2 center in the country? At 71? I really ought to dig up those old “Tom Izzo is washed”, “Tom Izzo needs to retire”, “The game is behind him” tweets from a few years ago.

Clergy were dragged off in handcuffs at the Broadview ICE facility; faith leaders arrested for demanding basic humanity for detainees. The vigil turned confrontational after an attorney challenged ICE’s protest curfew. Instead of addressing abuses, police & ICE cracked down on clergy & activists.

Eight Senators snuck in a MILLION-DOLLAR PAYOUT for themselves for being investigated for their possible involvement in the January 6th insurrection.

There is no money for healthcare, but there is money for a payout to Senators?

Senator Markey Demands End to ICE's Facial Recogniton Technology
YouTube video by Senator Markey Senator Markey Demands End to ICE's Facial Recogniton Technology

ICE’s facial recognition technology is fueling a surveillance state that targets Black & Brown communities, silences dissent, and chills free speech. I’m demanding ICE stop scanning our faces like barcodes.

He attacks science and higher ed, driving top talent to flee, then complains we don't have talent and must bring in immigrants with h1b visas that he's charging $100,000 a pop for.

He's ok with immigration so long as he can exploit and profit from it.

Trump has suggested 50 year home mortgages. No surprise, it’s an idiotic idea. You want to get young people into homes? Make mortgages assumable.
