"Meanwhile, emotions ran high as a growing crowd of neighbors gathered to watch. Some people started shouting at ICE agents as they attempted to leave, surrounding and hitting their vehicles. Agents used flashbangs at one point to try to disperse the crowd." www.kron4.com/news/nationa...

Last week, WaPo reported that 17 of 18 intelligence agencies said that Tren de Aragua had no substantive tie to Venezuela. This effectively says one of two claims on which Trump based his Alien Enemies Act invocation is false. Now, Tulsi says down is up.

@DNIGabbard
The weaponization of intelligence to undermine the President’s agenda is an assault on democracy. Those behind this illegal leak of classified intelligence, twisted and manipulated to convey the exact opposite finding, will be held accountable under the full force of the law. Rooting out this politicization of intelligence is exactly what President Trump campaigned on and what Americans overwhelmingly voted for. The Office of the Director of National Intelligence fully supports the assessment that the foreign terrorist organization, Tren De Aragua, is acting with the support of the Maduro Regime, and thus subject to arrest, detention and removal as alien enemies of the United States.

Trump border czar Tom Homan on Eric Adams: “If he doesn’t come through, I’ll be back in New York City. And we won’t be sitting on a couch. I’ll be in his office, up his butt, saying where the hell is the agreement we came to.” Sure sounds like a quid pro quo.

The Executive Orders rolling out today were part of Project 2025, the part that was never made public, overseen by Russ Vought. open.substack.com/pub/donmoyni...

The Washington Post had already reported that Vought had been assigned responsibility for implementing a secret “180-Day Playbook” to make Project 2025 a reality, and enacting this vision of a Christian nationalist state in a post-constitutional environment. While the existence of the playbook has also been confirmed by other reporters, the content of actual plans continue to remain secret. However, we can predict that much of this work centers on not just using Schedule F to fire career employees in order to make the bureaucracy as subservient to Trump as the Republican Party has become, but finding other ways to undermine the administrative state. Vought told the undercover reporters:

Eighty percent of my time is working on plans of whats necessary to take control of these bureaucracies. I want to be the person that crushes the deep state. I think there are a lot of different ways to do that. Its defunding it. Its impoundment, the ability to not spend money. It’s getting rid of their independence.
