When Trump encounters a demographic he doesn’t care for, he “disappears” them–in many cases, the very record of their existence. Meet America’s new “missing persons," and the govt campaign to delete statistical evidence of anyone who doesn't fit Trump’s idea of our new golden age. w/ @ashendruk.com

ICE — or Trump’s Secret Police? Add this to the fact that Trump’s government is apparently compiling a database to build profiles on American citizens.

Haliburton, as called in: Brazil, France, Iceland, U.S. (in Spanish), Albania, U.S. (ESPN Radio), Indianapolis, Oklahoma City, the Netherlands, Türkiye, Canada, and Croatia:

I think we’ve reached a boiling point when it comes to ICE. Today in Minneapolis, a militarized task force raided the beloved Lake Street taqueria, Las Cuatro Milpas—and the community was not having it. Agents from ICE, the DEA, FBI, ATF, IRS and HHS rolled up looking like they were ready for war.

ICE dressed up like utility workers who offer "free estimates" if invited inside. Neighbor recorded the ICE goons and intervened, just before a young boy let them into his home. Tucson Electric Power was not told ICE agents would be impersonating their utility workers as part of the ICE raid.

🚨BREAKING: The SEC just dropped its lawsuit against Binance—days after the crypto exchange listed the Trump-backed stablecoin USD1. me, for @forbes.com

Happening in Tallahassee, Florida right now. Immigration raid against people who are literally working to build our housing by ICE agents wearing military gear and looking like they are in a war-zone.

Terminal out with coverage of the potential gut shot for US capital markets buried in the House reconciliation bill. No web link yet. This got flagged and discussed by a couple smart folks here last week.

Oh I am not shitposting, folks. Stephen Miller, his wife, and Elon are widely rumored to be a throuple. Now Miller's wife is leaving the Trump team to be with Musk & LITERALLY PER THE NEW YORK TIMES Stephen is angrily subtweeting Musk. They actually put it in the paper of record that he was mad
