Sarah Pochin raised "concerns" in parliament about the impact of second homes on rural communities. Two days later she purchased an £800,000 second home on Anglesey. Remarkable stuff. www.theguardian.com/politics/202...

IMPORTANT: Stop calling the troops in LA National Guard Troops. They are not. When Trump activated them against the wishes of the Gov they became FEDERAL troops… like the 82nd airborne with no Law enforcement power! Don’t let them confuse you!

Courts have ruled 4,400 times that ICE jailed people illegally. It hasn’t stopped.

As Trump gets less popular and less powerful, he leans into presidential prerogative powers were his powers have few real limits. Trump's character predicts it. It's a form of compensation and presidential self-care.

That's the plan, and to the extent the Trump admin even wanted to help (they don't), they illegally dismantled the mechanisms for it, like USAID. It would've served our strategic interests greatly for millions of Iranians to see boxes and crates of vital supplies with U.S. flags on them. Oh well.
