The shorthand minimizes the underlying, horrific criminal enterprise, airbrushing out the victims and quest for justice. It shields Trump, Bondi, and DOJ from level of scrutiny. And it lessens pressure on congressional Rs to distance themselves from this travesty open.substack.com/pub/contrari...

Undocumented immigrants aren’t showing up to work because they face a double threat: 📌 ICE could roll up to the job site, because it’s easier to target hardworking people than go after real criminals. 📌 When the work’s done, some employers refuse to pay and threaten to call ICE.

Texas hasn't received FEMA aid yet. The callous disregard from officials is shocking. I hope Texans remember this in 2026. Ultimately, it seems the priority is enriching the wealthy using funds collected from struggling individuals.

The lack of total outrage at the indictment of Congresswoman McIvey is truly frightening. Hakeem Jeffries ought to be causing high holy hell over this. She is indicted because she is Black. Half of the GOP caucus engaged in sedition and Garland felt arresting a member of congress went too far.
