The Dems need a leader. They need a "Robert De Niro". They need a team of De Niro's. They need a plan of attack. They need to clean house. The GoP wanted to make America great again; well, they failed. Show them how it's done. Steal the thunder.

It’s hard to put into perspective how truly massive the warehouse is that was recently sold by the Rockefeller Group to the Department of Homeland Security for $70 million to build a concentration camp in Surprise, AZ. Across the street is a huge neighborhood and a school. It’s 400,000-square-feet.

When it comes to the Trump regime, personnel shifts can calm headlines, but they rarely signal substantive change. Only a change in optics. At the heart of all that “de-escalation” messaging in Minneapolis is a battle for Trump's favor in his mass deportation game.
The War Inside the Department of Homeland Security
In a loss for Kristi Noem, the White House chose institutions over optics—for now. But its policies remain in place.

Must read, especially for all you legal beagles out there. 🧑🦰
I know you've heard that a federal judge ordered the release of 5 year old Liam Conejo Arias and his father, and that they're now home.
But did you look at the judge's order?
It's less than 2.5 pages and well worth a minute. "Jesus wept."

Yes, this!! BTC is spot on. From the article:
Last year, the U.S. was projected to lose $12.5 billion in international spending. International tourists support almost 20 million jobs. They generate $585 billion in tax revenue – that’s almost 7% of the government’s income for the year.

My guess is that subordinates *probably* malinger enough to avoid this catastrophe (or courts shut it down fast), but what's really worrisome about this to me is that it shows Trump is *extremely* salty at Canada and NATO and is determined to find some way to make them pay for humiliating him.

I know all eyes are on Minneapolis, but there's a fast-approaching nightmare in Springfield, Ohio.
Trump is revoking protected status for tens of thousands of Haitians living there on Feb. 3.
Reportedly, on Feb. 4, 1000 ICE agents are arriving to remove this population. Ethnic cleansing.
