In the before times, ICE, DHS, and Dept. of State leadership probably would have been hauled before Congress to explain this. The president would also have said leadership fired.

And the agencies would have been sued as well.

But that was then. This is now and the law doesn’t matter now. 🤬🤬🤬
Mahmoud Khalil did everything MAGAs claim they care about: He followed the law, got his green card legally, got married & started a family, had no criminal record—but because the party of free speech didn't like HIS free speech, he's abducted & set for deportation

New from me: The Trump admin ended funding for 1000s of int'l aid programs, including one in Kabul treating severely malnourished kids.

Why? Because Maine’s governor Janet Mills told him to his face she would obey federal and state law, not his bullying edict, and he snapped at her like he did at Zelenskyy and she said see you in court. So, being a thin-skinned hateful savage, he’s now collectively punishing/antagonizing Mainers.
The Trump admin canceled contracts with Maine's CDC supporting "enumeration at birth" -- the way 99% of American babies get their Social Security Numbers.

Now Maine parents have to visit field offices in-person to get their newborn SSNs

Why?

No reason given.

Last I checked there was a federal criminal statute on extortion that’s enforced by the United States Department of Jus— … oh wait, never mind
"Spend more on Elon Musk’s social-media platform, or else."

"A lawyer at advertising conglomerate Interpublic Group fielded a phone call ... from a lawyer at X. The message was clear ... Get your clients to spend more on Elon Musk’s social-media platform, or else." A merger could be tanked.

The whole point of the execrable cabinet picks and the outrageous executive orders was to display his dominance over the R senators, blemishing their records with votes to confirm, so that they will need to depend on him for re-election. And incidentally, to cause chaos.

This story can't be repeated enough. The GOP is lined up behind the guy who is so incompetent that his quasi-gov't agency did this. They're confirming his highly questionable nominees & hurting the American people.

WTF?!
WIC. They are pausing WIC.

That's the Special Supplemental Nutrition Program for Women, Infants, and Children. Last time I checked (a while ago), every dollar spent on WIC produced over a dollar in savings *in the same fiscal year.* For most people, though, feeding infants and mothers is enough.
Broader agreement that it to applies to discretionary spending payments (Head Start, WIC, etc).

If your senator is a Republican other than McConnell, Collins, or Murkowski call or email them and say that you are disgusted that they voted to confirm Pete Hegseth. Our servicemembers will suffer, the US will look weak . Americans are literally less safe because of this vote. It’s shameful.
