The best part of this truly insane story about the President using $200 MILLION , is the inadvertently honest statement from Noem: “the media will never tell the truth (about immigration).”

Not content to conscript state and local government resources to combat a phantom invasion, DHS is now enlisting the State Department personnel. Did the DOGE bros approve this? drive.google.com/file/d/1S24J...

The single biggest mistake anti-Trumpers are making in resisting DOGE is the desperation to accede to the need for reform of government. MUSK'S OWN COMPANIES are hellholes ridden with corruption and waste and violations of the law. People should be on the ATTACK against private sector misconduct.

Im sorry. What is this? It’s not news. It’s not commentary. It’s not satire. But it is written by the New York Times chief White House correspondent. What is it?

Crazy how quiet Media & Political Elite have been about our new concentration camps: How many people are in Concentration Camp Gitmo? What countries are they from? Are any American citizens? Are they getting lawyers? Are they being held in humane conditions?

Ironically, the problem described in article is most pronounced in the area immigrant rights (see eg muñoz/sharry/atlantic), but, or more to the point— and— immigrant rights is scarcely mentioned in the piece…. www.nytimes.com/2025/02/16/u...

This is the Democrats' playbook in my lifetime, not just for immigration but for any politics of fear and division. It never works, but they can't seem to think of anything else.

This reminds me of David Frum’s seminal Atlantic cover article arguing that immigrants are to blame for American nativism.

Dem consultants: If you don’t mention inflation and betray trans people in literally every post, your career is over. Republican consultants: Hell yeah let’s have the puppy killer build the concentration camps and the corpse defiler fire the cancer docs, our base is going to love you forever.

NYT op-ed: As legal scholars, we really think if you consider these quotes from Blackstone and Coke and this AG opinion and trace the English common law history, there's a colorable argument Trump isn't breaking the law. Trump, same day: I AM BOUND BY NO LAWS!

“Trans people have been here since the beginning of time … We fought in all the wars. We’re creators. We have families and children. We’re just as much a part of this world as anyone else. We’re here to stay, and we will not be erased by a Christo-fascist, neo-Nazi administration.”

That awkward moment when the eugenicists do paid advertising on Twitter lifting up Barack Obama's "felons not families" speech....

The propaganda is working. But they do not support family separation. They do not support deporting peaceful people who have built their lives here. They do not support harassing US citizens. They don't support redirecting law enforcement from investigating real crime.

I can’t say I’ve thought about inflation that much since the US Attorney in the district you and I both live in had to resign because the President wanted to make a corrupt deal with the Mayor, backed by the threat of a dangling DOJ prosecution, to terrorize immigrants and people of color here.

I'm again going to highly recommend this interview. I have never focused as much as I probably should have on immigration politics but it's impossible now to avoid its close connections to everything else that is happening. This discussion brings that out very clearly.

Danielle R. Sassoon, Manhattan’s acting U.S. attorney, resigned on Thursday rather than obey a Justice Department order that she drop a corruption case against New York City’s mayor, Eric Adams, that she had championed, according to three people with knowledge of the matter.

JD Vance says our obligations radiate out in concentric circles, from family to nation and only then to the world, justifying Trump's immigration policies. I say that argument's a sham. Cosmopolitan liberalism offers a much more defensible map of our obligations: newrepublic.com/article/1914...

If I’m understanding this all correctly, Democrats’ whole strategy is to hope that Trump’s incompetence is greater than his wickedness. Is that right?
