Don’t fall for Trump’s efforts to convince the public he’s changing course on immigration. It’s meant to distract and stop the protests. Nothing more. joycevance.substack.com/p/ice-gettin...

Moneybags Homan. Next man up.
The Trump administration is painting Border Czar Tom Homan as a less extreme and more professional alternative to the leadership of the recently removed Border Patrol head, Greg Bovino, and Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem.
But his record tells a much different story.

Tom Homan is supposed to fix Trump's Minnesota crisis. His record raises serious questions.

The blame game has commenced. Dracula vs. Cosplay Barbie. Hope they kill each other.
The blame game heats up:
A few days ago they were confidently smearing a murdered man as an “assassin” - now Noem is whining that it’s all Miller’s fault and Miller is blaming Customs and Border Patrol for bad info. They all need to go down.

So Greg Bovino is back to his post at USBP in El Centro. There are many lovely hardworking Americans in El Centro but at a place to be it is not to everyone’s taste. I had a hearing in El Centro and drove there the night before because you can’t get there in the morning…../1

Ian Austin, an Army veteran, was arrested for protesting ICE in Minneapolis. But he’s continued protesting. Senior reporter @julialurie.bsky.social spoke to him.
“When they say, ‘Why would you be out here?’ How the fuck could I not be out here?” he says. “My nation is under attack."

It's not quite the most pressing issue at the moment, but the American people absolutely have a right to know the names of the federal officials who shot and killed a man peacefully protesting, who was on his knees, prone in the street when they shot him in the back.

It's nice that Chris Murphy will say this on a podcast and all, but if he's not actively working to throw out the Vichy Dems like Durbin and Schumer, it will be all for naught. He can have a nice told-you-so moment when the Dems flush the midterms down the toilet, but not much else.
Sen Chris Murphy warns Dems:
"If people don’t see us fighting on something as existential as whether we condone the federal government murdering our own citizens, there will be a mass withdrawal from politics altogether."
On the pod, Murphy lays it all out so well:

Q: Was Alex Pretti armed when he was shot?
BOVINO: Um, again, the investigation is going to uncover all those facts
Q: If you are investigating, isn't it possible this was a bad shooting?
BOVINO: I haven't concluded anything
