ICE is struggling to hire officers — even after lowering its standards. DHS is spending millions of dollars on an aggressive television ad campaign targeting local police officers — but it's not getting nearly enough applicants.

It looks like most Americans simply don’t want to be ICE thugs.

This is the Trump/Johnson Epstein Shutdown

If Johnson swears-in Adelita Girjalva, the House will
override his scheme to block a vote demanding release of ALL the Epstein files

Clearly whatever is in the Epstein files about Trump & his pals is really, really, really bad!!

This statement by JD Vance is no different from the people who claimed it’s “totally reasonable and acceptable” for white folks to not want Black people in their neighborhoods

Or to enact covenants which exclude Jews and Italians

It’s blatant racism-coming from the very top of the US government

Not all of us have a wealthy immigrant oligarch benefactor in our lives like Peter Thiel spearheading our careers.

In my opinion, what's clear about the very affluent regime running our country now is that they look down upon everyone except for their peers.

Vance's most prominent benefactor over the years has been iconoclastic tech investor Peter Thiel, who in recent months said he's not giving money to any politician in 2024.

From billionaire supporters like Musk to top advisers like Stephen Miller to ICE agents carrying out his deportations, Trump is dependent on others to carry out his agenda. Democrats must make clear to every one of those underlings that they’ll be held accountable—if not today, then one day soon.

Opinion | Why Democrats must end the era of no consequences

Party officials need to make clear to Trump's underlings that they face legal risk.
