NEW: Earlier today, DHS Sec Kristi Noem posted a photo of federal agents arresting civil rights attorney and ICE protestor Nekima Levy Armstrong.
The White House then posted the same arrest image -- but digitally altered Levy Armstrong's face to depict her sobbing.

It’s a mad, bad policy. Creates a class of disadvantaged families and children for no conceivable policy outcome aside from that disadvantage. Although I suppose it helps to fund the Home Office through fees, which are charged at well above cost of processing.

If telling the troops not to follow illegal orders is “sedition,” what do we call colluding with the Kremlin to manipulate the U.S. President into advancing Russian interests over America’s?

If Labour abolish most trials by jury, and a future Reform government then takes us out of the ECHR, we'll end up in an incredibly scary place because we'll be at the whim of a handful of people.

I'm hearing the same thing. Dems are nearing a surrender. I'm shocked. Largest protest in history + best election night in years + polling showing we're kicking their ass in public opinion. And now Dems may cave.
It ain't over til it's over, so please do call if you've got a Dem senator.

Sounds like the squishes in the senate caucus are ready to pull the plug with no ACA changes. This is real. If you want to register your opinion you shld call yr senator in the next hour. They not only want to reopen w/nothing. They want cover from their colleagues who still want to hold out.

We are so far through the looking glass that the man who tried to overthrow an election becomes president, the people who attacked the Capitol are turned into martyrs, & it's the BBC that gets punished - cheered on by the worst news outlets in the UK & the two most dishonest politicians of our age.
It’s not at all clear to me how the BBC can do any kind of serious journalism if its top two bosses can be forced to quit over such an obviously confected scandal. There is no substantive error here. How can the BBC report on Trump, or Farage, or anyone else, in these circumstances?

It’s easy to see why Trump wants to destroy the world’s number one news source. We can’t let him.
The BBC belongs to all of us here in the UK.
The Prime Minister and leaders from across the political spectrum should be united in telling Trump to keep his hands off it.
