I don’t think anyone is prepared for what they just did w/ ICE.
This is not a simple budget increase. It is an explosion - making ICE bigger than the FBI, US Bureau of Prisons, DEA,& others combined.
It is setting up to make what’s happening now look like child’s play. And people are disappearing.

RFK leans on "MAHA moms" to push his quack agenda. On the surface, his praise of them seems flattering, like "moms" have knowledge doctors don't.
But looking closer, it quickly becomes evident that "MAHA moms" are part of a larger misogynist agenda.
