I was on the ground today in Broadview with Senator Durbin to conduct Congressional oversight on ICE’s processing facility.  As elected officials, we have a duty to ensure transparency within federal facilities. What is ICE hiding? Kristi Noem, what are you hiding?

Companies say they aren't getting any value from it. It's over hyped and priced too high.

Hopefully Mayor Johnson can keep them safe. I hope this reporter wins a lot of $ in court.

Wolff says people tell him that Trump just isn't a curious person at all. He never spends one second trying to understand something. Epstein said the only thing he was ever good at was Real Estate. With everything else, he has no idea what he's doing.

Exactly. It's hard to admit you were wrong. But, at some point, you have no choice but to own up to your decisions. MAGA needs to put on their big boy and girl pants and help us take our country back. The vast majority of us don't want this. A Qatar base in America? Enough is enough.

Michael Wolff says Trump really is just stupid. 4D chess? Nah. He's dumb. That's it.

That guy is a total criminal. He's a head cracker. He will be with Trump in the bunker when the time comes.

They will expose his inability to transform into the dictator he aspires to be and will reveal him as the washed up lame-duck he truly is.

Texas needs to stop messing with Illinois and go back to your own damn state.

They are still ruling against him at every turn

That's a good sign.

No, one of them is working up contempt charges now. We just need to get the ball rolling.

This is a direct violation of a federal judge's order yesterday not to arrest press. They are also violating orders that they must identify themselves. Time for contempt. If the US Marshals won't do it, the Illinois State Police or Chicago cops should.

I remember listening to a CIA agent talk about how they use kiddy porn as currency in their operations because the guys who make and trade weapons want it. Thiel is an AI weapons manufacturer. I hear he likes little boys.

The U.S. Marshals don't want to take them in custody, I'm sure the Chicago cops will oblige.
