If you're a Democrat, you're a sucker if you imagine this agency has anything to do with immigration. It is--and aspires to be!--a fascist paramilitary goon squad. You should start saying so and lay the groundwork for starving it of funding when you take power

TRUMP'S BAD BIRD CALL

Fossil fuels kill more birds than wind power.
Oil pits kill 500,000 to 1 million birds each year.

That's at least twice as many birds as wind turbines.

And that doesn't account for loss of avian life due to climate disruption.

Still mind-blowing that a top admin official was revealed to have taken $50,000 in cash in a paper bag from people looking for government favors, the reaction of the administration was "Whatever losers, this is how it works now" and bigshot news media said "If you say so, we'll forget about it"
Border czar Tom Homan didn't receive a normal background check for his role while his bribery probe was still ongoing:

Justice officials felt sure Homan would not be able to obtain a security clearance based on the evidence gathered. It remains unclear how Homan was eventually granted clearance.

President-elect Trump initially balked at submitting names of likely nominees to the FBI for background checks, a basic step intended to flag possible financial conflicts or ethical problems.

In a fundraising email Monday, Trump told supporters that Democrats would steal their “tariff rebate checks” if they didn’t donate money to him within the hour.

We need a law against lying in politics, but the right will fight it as if their lives depended on it.

It appears the whole Putin “Ukraine tried to kill me with 91 drones last night” was entirely made up. And of course Trump repeated it and said he was mad at Ukraine.

Fox News:Is there any indication that you see that Vladimir Putin wants peace by what he's doing or saying?

They’ve been slashing healthcare due to “waste, fraud and abuse”.

It was never about saving money.
