“Through its third-country deportation deals, the Trump administration is putting millions of taxpayer dollars into the hands of foreign governments, while turning a blind eye to the human costs."
Trump Has Spent $40 Million in Secretive Deals Deporting Hundreds of People to Third Countries
The Trump administration's secretive deportation deals with human rights-abusing countries are costing taxpayers millions and putting migrants at risk. How can we stand by as our government prioritizes appearance over human lives? Demand transparency and accountability now. #EndDeportationDeals

Trump: "The Democrats have gone crazy. They're radical left lunatics. That's why their cities are so unsafe. The blue cities are the cities that are unsafe. So we have to protect our law enforcement."

Disabled American citizen arrested by ICE:

"It's horrific, horrific scenes in there. There are black and brown people shackled and chained together... I ended up on the floor of a cold concrete cell that has no toilet, no bed, no blanket... We're not safe. This can't go on."

Whoa! Didn’t expect to wake up to this news.

“A year into Trump’s term, voters say Biden was better.”

Trump’s net approval on the economy is now -18. That’s 26 points worse than this point in his first term and a brutal 53 points lower among independents.

Trump tapped white nationalist Jeremy Carl for Assistant Secretary of State for International Orgs.

He called the Civil Rights Act an “anti-white weapon,” pushed the “great replacement,” called Juneteenth a “race hustle,” and compared J6 defendants to Black defendants in Jim Crow trials.

Reporter: Within DHS, Secretary Noem and Corey Lewandowski frequently berate senior level staff and give polygraph tests to employees that they simply don't trust. The pair has fired or demoted 80% of the career ICE field leadership that was in place when they first started.

"Previous estimates showed the US economy generated 584,000 jobs in 2025, the first year of Trump’s second term, which was deeply discouraging.

Now, the picture is far worse: The newly revised, final data shows that the U.S. economy actually added only 181,000 jobs..."

🚨In December 2016, Epstein invited Bill Gates to his island and informed him that “new administration people” were visiting.

This was sent exactly one month before Trump was inaugurated for his first term.

Fuentes, yesterday: “Our #1 political enemy is women because women constrain everything, every conversation, every man, everything. They have to be imprisoned. They are the ones that are hurting the fertility rate. They're the ones making us sympathetic to poor people, which are also brown people.”

This is so embarrassing.

The cartel drones Pam Bondi was sounding the alarm about during the hearing turned out to be… party balloons.

This administration is so incompetent.
