If the GOP reconciliation bill passes, ICE gets through FY2029:

- $45 billion for detention, on top of the current annual budget of $3.4 billion
- $14.4 billion for transportation and removal, on top of the current annual budget of $750 million
- $8 billion for hiring/retention
- Billions more.

Trump just threatened to impose severe, unprecedented tariffs on Chinese imports. He won’t negotiate with Xi at the upcoming APEC summit, choosing to sink the global economy. The Dow is already down 300 points. This will devastate American small businesses and cause your expenses to skyrocket.

Good fucking morning to everyone except Speaker Mike Johnson—still refusing to swear in Adelita Grijalva in a desperate attempt to stall the Epstein discharge petition. You can run from this cover-up, but you can’t hide. The truth is coming for you.

The indictment of Letitia James should alarm us all.

It was meant to send a message: If you cross Trump, you could be next.

New — Video shared with me shows ICE officers in DC detaining a man on Friday.

Bystander filming asks man for his name. ICE agent lies and says he’s not allowed to speak to him “by law” and another says “We’ve arrested American citizens for being too close…If he gets any closer, put him in cuffs.”
