Last night, I wrote on Substack how I thought Trump would respond to the Abrego Garcia ruling from SCOTUS (left). Here’s how Trump actually responded this morning (right). Also, the deadline for Trump to report the steps it’s taken has passed.

🧵 There are a lot of misleading claims out there about the SAVE Act. Let me set the record straight: I voted for the SAVE Act for the simple reason that American elections are for Americans. Requiring proof of citizenship to register to vote is common sense.

Hey, @schumer.senate.gov :: you better not be playing cute with your language about stopping the SAVE Act. I hope you intend to VOTE NO ON CLOTURE, as opposed to what you did with the CR when you told us you'd vote no on the bill, but still voted YES on cloture. We are in no mood for games.
