A CBP agent or officer has been arrested every 24 to 36 hours since 2005 — and there's every reason to believe that ICE has similar cultural misconduct problems, as it's set to be turbocharged with 10,000 new officers. www.doomsdayscenario.co/p/accountabi...

My quick take after reading FBI's Fulton County affidavit: it's a bunch of discredited recycled BS peddled for years by election deniers and it's appalling that a judge signed off on a warrant for the raid based on the "evidence" presented here
Affidavit for Fulton County FBI raid is out & begins with massive red flag, noting that "criminal investigation originated from referral sent by Kurt Olsen, [Trump's] Director of Election Security & Integrity"

VAN HOLLEN: Did you in fact make the visit to Epstein's private island?
LUTNICK: I did have lunch w/ him as I was on a boat going across on a family vacation. My wife was with me as were my 4 children and nannies. We had lunch on the island. That's true. For an hour. We left with all of my children

Didn't they claim that jobs worked by undocumented immigrants would be filled by Americans looking for work?
Perhaps they didn't consider that immigrants also *consume* goods and services?
