At least 75 career federal officials who’d played important roles in elections have left, been fired or been reassigned. In their place are roughly two dozen people Trump has installed in positions that could affect elections. Ten of them actively worked to reverse the 2020 vote. (Published April)

This thing with Trump and Vance bashing the Pope? You all know that it’s an attempt to take the spotlight off this illegal, economy crushing and innocent killing war(s), right?

So Orban’s Hungary was funding CPAC. Orban told Putin that a mouse could help a lion. JD personally went to Hungary to campaign for Orban and Trump spoke to the crowd at JD’s rally for Orban. Am I missing anything here?

Border Patrol dump blind refugee 5 miles away from home—he was found dead on the street. Officers dropped him off in front of a donut shop—didn't notify his lawyer or family he was even released. When reported missing—local police said he was in ICE custody & stopped looking for him. Buffalo, NY

It’s hard to put into perspective how truly massive the warehouse is that was recently sold by the Rockefeller Group to the Department of Homeland Security for $70 million to build a concentration camp in Surprise, AZ. Across the street is a huge neighborhood and a school. It’s 400,000-square-feet.

Remember her name: Aliya Rahman Her testimony is everything and it deserves to be heard, by everyone. Decide for yourself. It’s powerful. It’s gut-wrenching. And no one should have to survive what she did. ICE MUST GO‼️

Highlighting the speaker who stood in front of the Surprise mayor and told him to consider what the Mayor of Ohrdruf must’ve thought before he died by suicide: “He might have thought ‘how is this my fault I had no jurisdiction over this’ maybe he said ‘this site was not subject to local zoning.’”

Q: On ICE protests, what did you mean when you said 'people will suffer an equal or greater consequence'? TRUMP: If they do anything bad to our people, they will have to suffer, I'm sorry. If they throw bricks at one of our very expensive vehicles, they are gonna be met with very very serious force

Recall that Melissa Hortman and her husband were murdered not long ago by a fake cop who showed up at their door looking like this guy

Reminder: Greg Bovino is in charge of Border Patrol, the agency whose agent murdered Alex Pretti. Todd Lyons is in charge of ICE whose agent killed Renee Good. Both these Fed agencies need to leave Minneapolis!

After reading Heather Cox Richardson’s letter this morning, I realize that we, the (ha!) “Radical Left” are now the Conservatives, a counter-insurgency because we fight to uphold the rights given in the Constitution to We the People! Trying to wrap my head around that!🇺🇸🇺🇸

Pew Research Institute (2023): • Red State Texas has about 2.1 million undocumented immigrants • Red State Florida has 1.6 M undocumented immigrants • Blue State Minnesota has 130,000. And yet only Minnesota is being occupied by masked thugs over "immigration." It's *not* about immigration.

ICYMI: In a late night filing, DOJ argues the federal courts cannot force them to comply with the law requiring release of all the Epstein files.

🚨BREAKING: ICE agents just launched flash bang grenades at protesters in front of federal building in Minneapolis—causing massive explosions. "It's terrorizing, this isn't the America I served for 20 years in the U.S. Navy," tearful protester tells us. WE'RE LIVE NOW ⬇️

Jack Smith's deposition must be bigger news "There is no historical analog for what..Trump did..[H]e was free to say he thought he won..He was even free to say falsely that he won..But..he was not free to..violate federal law and use knowingly false statements..to target lawful government function"

Jack Smith: I believe we had proof beyond a reasonable doubt in both cases.

Remember this? James O'Keefe got Pam Bondi on video last May saying the FBI was processing “tens of thousands of videos” of Epstein “with little kids.” Then she told reporters “There are tens of thousands of videos of Epstein with children or child porn.” www.mediaite.com/politics/att...

So the Dept of Ed has designated teaching and nursing as not being professions. Women are predominate in these professions. Often these careers are a first step for many to enter the middle class. Many will be forced to use predatory lenders to further their education. Another assault on Americans

I was just thinking about contributing to the "charity" Feeding America. Until I discovered that the salary for its CEO, Claire Babineaux-Fontenot, was approximately $949,866 in 2024, with her total compensation being $1,113,502. Apparently, feeding America isn't her top priority.

Thus far, ICE and CBP in the Chicago region killed an immigrant Shot a woman 5 times-after allegedly taunting her, saying “Do something, b****” And shot a priest-who wasn’t remotely a threat-in the head So when does Governor Pritzker deploy the National Guard to protect citizens from these thugs

"So, Democrats have three words for this: no fucking way. It's literally life or death. We will not let Republicans blow up our health care system." This is, hands down, the best comms work Chuck Schumer has done in YEARS. Surprisingly good.

Vance faced reporters this morning and lied about Dems trying shutting down the gov to get billions for illegal immigrants to have healthcare. Vance, not Trump. DJT a bit unwell? Millions of American citizens will not be able to afford healthcare or receive help through Medicaid. Medicare is next.

UPDATE: The man ICE violently arrested has been identified as Job Arias-Mendoza. Two weeks ago he published a video to his social media accounts of ICE handcuffing a man in front of a liquor store—it has more than 200,000 views on TikTok. streetcarsuburbs.news/arias-mendoz...

NEW: ICE agents violently arrested a man in a busy Hyattsville, MD intersection this week, at one point brandishing guns and pointing them at bystanders. I spoke to multiple witnesses—including a local priest whose church is a sanctuary for undocumented people: www.thehandbasket.co/p/ice-agents...

Returning to a subject I was discussing this morning on X, I think a single video like this does more to radicalize people against ICE than any loaded rhetoric any politician has ever used, and DHS should think very hard about the consequences of supporting this kind of behavior from its agents.

I was back at 26 Federal Plaza today, where an ICE agent violently threw this bereft woman to the ground in front of her kids. She had not touched him. She did not pose any threat. She had to be taken to the hospital. (🎥: Elias Eliahu)

A hero!

Illinois State Senator Karina Villa sprang into action to protect her community from ICE raids, alerting neighbors to their rights and chasing off masked agents. This is how you stand up to authoritarianism. We should all be inspired by Sen. Villa's courage.

Here’s what was NOT released today: - the proffer agreement between Maxwell and the DoJ - the agreement transferring Maxwell to club fed - communications showing who waived Maxwell’s sex offender status allowing her transfer and possible work assignments outside prison - the Epstein files
