You're a high ranking government official and you shouldn't make things up.
Your 70% number is just a fabrication.
And it's TOTALLY not true that "every single" person you detained is here illegally. For instance, many were allowed in so they could apply for asylum.

In a way, I find the authoritarian takeover of our media system even more disturbing than the authoritarian takeover of our political system.
Our political system has been failing basically my entire adult life. But, the media system provided accountability and sort of worked. Now it’s collapsing.

Grijalva: I do think that Speaker Johnson misplayed his hand.

A glacier partially collapsed in Switzerland, burying the village of Blatten in a huge landslide of ice, rock, and mud after residents had been evacuated.
Scientists called the collapse of the glacier “unprecedented” in the Swiss Alps.

Well, this isn’t going to be good. Trump nominated Paul Ingrassia to lead the Office of Special Counsel, an independent agency meant to protect whistle-blowers and enforce ethics laws in the federal government.

At that point, Social Security is completely dead. Guarantees of benefits will be gone in favor of the whims of the stock market. The rich will get richer, and people that lose the ability to work will get pennies.
All the while, they'll say, "We'll never touch Social Security!"

4/ British kings used taxation to reward loyalty and punish dissent.
Our own revolution was spurred by the King’s use of heavy taxation of the colonies to punish our push for self governance.
The King’s message was simple: stop protesting and I’ll stop taxing.

Why? Because they watched how kings and despots used spending and taxes to control their subjects.
