Oh yeah Bovino has doubled down on this. He insists, repeatedly, that there at least an extra 85 million undocumented immigrants living in the US who aren’t counted in any other estimates. To be blunt, he is a moron endowed with far more self-confidence than sense.
"The 100 million figure, that's something I've looked at since I started with Border
Patrol 30 years ago. When I started 30 years ago, that figure stood around between 10 and 15 million. There were
actually studies in the 70s with approximately 15 million already in the United States, mostly centered in places like California, New York, Oregon, and Washington," Bovino told Border Hawk during a wide-ranging interview.

You're supposed to believe that this country is eternally teetering on the edge of communist central planning because our most leftist public figures at most want to use the democratic process to gently curb the most garish excesses of our economy. Preposterous

If you over-regulate capitalism you get totalitarian communism. If you under-regulate capitalism you get a ruling caste of insane monopolists. Please ignore the fact that one of these things has never happened and the other keeps happening over and over

One reason I hate death penalty cases is that capital punishment is incredibly stupid and irrational. It's cruel, expensive, and serves no deterrent effect. It's rarely imposed, except against a tiny minority of unlucky defendants—and in those cases, racism almost always plays a role. Just end it.

The height of judicial arrogance here. SCOTUS breaks Congress’ clear intent for the MSPB by allowing Trump to remove its members and deny it a quorum. Then Barrett and Thomas scold a lower court for trying to find a way to get litigants relief from a mess SCOTUS made.

Not only did they bring a small private army, but among the waste of taxpayer money was BRINGING A FULL PLANE OF FOOD. To *Italy*.
J.D. Vance and his family are attending the Winter Olympics in Milan with an exceptionally large security and logistics operation. Their entourage includes a fleet of 14 aircraft and a motorcade of 100 vehicles navigating tightly secured streets. Eleven of the planes are carrying his delegation, staff, former athletes, and security personnel, while one aircraft is dedicated solely to food supplies. Two additional planes transported armored vehicles across the Atlantic.

I'm not sure Democrats in D.C. are aware that their base's rage against ICE has reached a level of blinding white-hot intensity. They're worried about "looking weak" for voting "against law enforcement" when they should be worried a mob of housewives is going to come beat them to death if they do.

A lot of people don't understand how the 2A supporters are so okay with this, and the answer (as brilliantly explained by Carol Anderson in her book "The Second" ) is that the 2A has never been about protecting everyone's right to bear arms, but rather protecting white people's property USING guns.

Reminder: All it would take to end the murder of American citizens by an untrained government goon squad is 16 Republicans in Congress voting with Dems to defund ICE (or 23 to impeach and remove Trump — 3 in House & 20 in Senate). That’s it. 23 Americans can vote for the public and end all of this.

The newest video shows very clearly that they attacked him for coming to an aid of a woman that the agents pushed, and then executed him while he was immobilized. Everything the government has said, like with Good, has been a complete lie.
