Funny how God doesn’t say “Repent, turn yourself in to Idaho” but instead just tells you to keep on doing what you were planning to do. “When he fled to southern Utah, Bundy said he prayed for guidance and received a revelation from God telling him to live as normal a life as possible.”

T rump‘s mass deportation is a charade. Instead, we are deporting people we shouldn’t be! www.scrippsnews.com/politics/imm...

Numbers show no mass deportation of migrants, despite Trump immigration crackdown
As the 100 day mark approaches, the Trump administration is not on pace to deport millions of immigrants as promised.

“mostly as expected” is not how I would frame a disapproval rating of 59%! that is astoundingly terrible, especially for this early in a term! he started higher than his first term but he is rapidly trending lower and the shelves aren’t even empty yet

Trump has now officially tied his 2017 record for worst-ever approval rating for a POTUS 94 days into his term, at -8 net approval. If that wasn't bad enough for him, the trajectory is also terrible: Trump's decline in term 2 has been quicker than in term 1. www.gelliottmorris.com/p/data

The IRS will be on its fifth Commissioner since January. It turns out that the new acting Commissioner, announced 2 days ago, was selected by Musk. Bessent, the Treasury Secretary who oversees IRS, was not told. He persuaded Trump to reverse the decision. donmoynihan.substack.com/p/this-tax-d...
The fourth IRS Commissioner since January is already out. Gary Shapley was installed in the position by Elon Musk without the knowledge or agreement of Scott Bessent, the Treasury Secretary who oversees IRS. Shapley was announced for the position on April 16, and out by April 18 after Bessent pushed back against Musk usurping his powers. Musk has since attacked Bessent on social media. He will be replaced by another acting Commissioner until Billy Long is confirmed.

3 days ago RFK Jr. told the CDC to stop recommending water fluoridation, claiming it was a neurotoxin (this is a lie). Turns out he also just eliminated the CDC’s entire Lead Program, and now lead poisoned children in Milwaukee are just on their own. Lead IS a neurotoxin and harms brain development

Khalil can raise his constitutional arguments both in his habeas petition (still pending in federal court in New Jersey), and once he is able to challenge the immigration judge’s ruling in the Fifth Circuit. It sucks that he can’t raise them before the IJ, but that’s (unfortunately) not unusual.
