When the detained and deported aren’t people who have committed crimes in the US, just people trying to make a new life despite an intentionally underfunded immigrant processing system, what’s it got to do with “Homeland Security” when even mass shootings are handled as police matters?

Anyone else wondering where “Homeland Security” got these masked, gun toters so eager to strip people from their families and employers, what some call “kidnapping?”

Anyone else think there are more than a few convicted, and pardoned, 1/6 rioters in the ranks?

Didn’t Musk visit Putin between the election and the inauguration? Seems a likely place for plotting this out.

Could it give SCOTUS an opening to narrow the plain 14th Amendment language,
like they did with the immunity case?

As a Rising Political Star, Gabbard Paid to Mask Her Sect’s Ties to Alleged Scheme Years before Tulsi Gabbard became Trump’s pick to coordinate U.S. spy agencies, she tried to evade unwanted scrutiny.

Damning.

You're saying it's morning in Chicago?

Serious question: can the president just spend all his time in office suing people and then use the litigation as a "legal" way of accepting bribes via "settlements"?

The theory didn’t work out as they hoped, which is one of the reasons there have been no trials, let alone convictions, there 23 years later. For the a complete telling of this story, read “The Terror Courts” by @jessbravin.bsky.social

3. then engage in massive deportation of the "criminal" element that now includes them by definition, it's pretty clear that we're just obstructing entry where the entrants are, you know, brown.

4. And when we're removing from the country predominantly brown people who would otherwise be entitled under US and International Law to be here but for the lack of opportunity, through no fault of their own, to appear before an immigration judge, aren't we engaging in a kind of ethnic cleansing?

The "border issue" is the mouse that roared.
Definition: trump: to get the better of: override.
Yeah, we've been played.

2. And where those ineligible could be turned back promptly? When we starve the immigration system that would provide documentation to the eligible and criminalize people who work around it to escape desperate conditions,

Umm. Lots of people who read in the upper Midwest. You know, Chicago, Milwaukee, Minneapolis, St Louis? And we could use the help, right Missouri?

Looks like Democrats will end up ~7500 votes short of winning the House majority across three districts. That's the difference between having the power of the purse, subpoenas etc — or not — in a nation of 330+ million.

The share of Republicans who say that they’re worse off financially than they were a year ago is already down 15-points since the election.

A Trump Judge Just Nixed Overtime Pay for Millions—and Media Yawned Remember the right-wing frenzy over “Rich Men North of Richmond”? Well, this ruling exposes Trump-MAGA hypocrisy on the working class—and reveals a big media failure.

A Trump-appointed judge just struck down a Biden rule expanding overtime pay to 4 million working people.
