Trump’s advisor on border security, Tom Homan, told Rs yesterday at the Border Security Expo in Phoenix, AZ, that mass deportation is coming and that the admin will flood ICE/BP into jurisdictions that aren’t cooperative. “You ain’t seen sh*t yet." heathercoxrichardson.substack.com/p/may-5-2026

Pretti was executed and DOH immediately, without investigation claimed Pretti was the aggressor and deserved to die. This is DARVO (Deny, Attack, Reverse Victim and Offender), a deliberate manipulative tactic used by perpetrators of wrongdoing. But we have video, the internet, and our voices.

I swore an oath to the Constitution in 1986. I've upheld it through 25 years of service and every day since I retired. If Trump's trying to intimidate me, it won’t work. I’ve given too much to our country to be silenced by bullies who care more about power than the Constitution.

HCR: “Seven Republican senators have now signed onto a bill that would limit Trump’s ability to impose tariffs.” Good to see R pushback, but there needs to be a wave of resistance to Trump from both sides of the aisle, bills to limit executive overreach. open.substack.com/pub/heatherc...

Traditionally, presidents and politicians who challenge/flount the law have been constrained by political fallout, bad press and public opinion. But Trump&Co's political capital grows from mocking, aggressive, even violent behavior. www.nytimes.com/2025/03/20/w...

I think this is an underestimated part of what's going on. The stupidity. It is true they don't care much about consequences. But also that they, notably Trump and Musk, don't understand them....
