ICE DID NOT ORDER ANYTHING.

Sick of seeing this reposted by people who should know better.

Also I really really hate feeling like I have to defend ICE.

The closest you get is ICE acting Director Todd Lyons telling Fox Digital he “applauds” the archdiocese for telling the parish to remove it.
ICE’s acting director ordered a Boston Catholic parish to tear down its Advent Nativity scene—stripped of baby Jesus and branded with the message “ICE WAS HERE.” The parish priest is refusing, citing he pope’s call to stand with migrants. It's another chapter in Kristi Noem's war on Christians.
“ICE Was Here”: Pope Leo-Inspired Nativity Scene Sparks MAGA Outrage
A Nativity scene missing Jesus — and marked with an “ICE was here” sign — has triggered cries of “politicizing Christmas.” The parish priest says he’s answering Pope Leo's call to welcome stranger.

Readers are not asking the New York Times to print propaganda or stump for Democrats. In my view, they simply want the Times to be more clear-eyed and honest about the depth of the crisis this country currently faces. presswatchers.org/2025/12/new-...

Trump’s obsession with me is beyond weird. He needs serious help.

Since he has no economic policies to tout, he’s resorting to regurgitating bigoted lies instead.

He continues to be a national embarrassment.

Every part of this is bonkers. The intro is bonkers. The transition to his health is bonkers. The mention that other presidents didn't need cognitive exams is bonkers. The claim that this screening test is somehow hard is bonkers. The idea that criticism of him is treason is bonkers. All of it.

The Trump admin messaging appears as part of a brazen attempt to pit low-income borrowers against working class Americans in some sort of faux class war (or maybe “affordability” standoff?) during a time when no one can afford anything.

Will Arnett was on Conan and told a story about how Conan dealt with the death of his parents by accusing Jason Bateman of killing them. It’s so funny.

The problem for Republicans is that they’ve never had a serious health care plan; they define themselves by what they’re against. So when they have to produce, nada. Their “ideas” come from creepy billionaire-funded “think tanks,” and would fail in practice.
Why Senate Republicans aren't uniting behind a health care plan
Voting on any alternative to Democrats' Obamacare extension is likely to highlight the divisions in the GOP.

Yes. We must extend the ACA tax credits so that over 20 million Americans don't see a doubling in their health premiums, on average. But we must do more. We cannot remain the only major country not to guarantee health care for all as a human right.

We must pass Medicare for All.
