The number of convicted criminals in immigration detention is about 1.8x what it was when Trump took office.
The number of people with no criminal record whatsoever — who are detained solely for immigration reasons — has shot up **25.5x**

National Pedophile Day has been added to the list of free entry days to our parks.
Donald Trump just removed Martin Luther King Jr. Day and Juneteenth from the list of free entry days at national parks.

They are being replaced with Trump’s birthday.

Elon Musk has tweeted nonstop about white babies, white genocide, population decline, and fertility rates for the past week.

This is what it's all about, folks. The supervillain plot is tweeted in real time.
