Poor FOX News. Not the sound bite they were looking for.
FOX: Where’s the protest against the regime that's killing people in the street right now?
Trent: They are doing those today. It’s called the ICE protests
FOX: Are they talking about Iran at the ICE protests?
Trent: No, I think they are talking about the regime that is shooting people in the face

ICE blocked Minnesota officials from investigating their shooting of Renee Good.
Trump and the GOP have blocked and overly redacted the Epstein files.
This is not the behavior of innocent people. This is the behavior of criminals engaged in a cover-up.

I think it is probably a bad idea to put clearly unhinged, angry psychopaths in federal law enforcement positions.

The DEI is coming from inside the house. It's him haranguing and firing the whole of the federal government so it can be "inclusive" of people who paid him off.
Media framing of events is a choice. Trump frames event in way that I think most reporters understand is nonsense.
Don't have to repeat it.
There is a real story about what happens to state capacity over the next 4 years that is better told through specific events like this rather than in abstract.

If you are a federal worker being offered a buyout, I would advise against taking it.
Of course, this is a personal decision for everyone and it’s your choice.
But these offers are a rush job. The legality is questionable and this admin does not keep to its word.
They aren’t firing for a reason.
