Trump said last year that he would focus on deporting immigrants who were violent criminals. But a study of arrests in major operations in DC, LA, Illinois and Massachusetts shows that the vast majority of those swept up by ICE have no criminal record.

don't worry, john roberts says this is a legitimate exercise of presidential power and if we did anything to curb it, we would be robbing the executive of the energy he needs to do his job
Trump rages that Henry Cuellar didn’t pay him back for a pardon by switching parties, blasting Cuellar for a “lack of LOYALTY.”

In other words, Trump admits he was trying to use his pardon power to buy Republicans a House seat.

if you're going to have these rat bastards on the air, you have to have follow up questions ready. tom cotton is the chairman of the senate intelligence committee, "i dunno, haven't asked" is, if true, a deliberate dereliction of his duties both as a senator and in his current role as a senator.
WELKER: You're talking about Trump protecting Arkansas from drugs, yet he pardoned the former president of Honduras who trafficked more than 500 tons of cocaine into the US. How does that make us safer?

COTTON: I haven't spoken to POTUS about that pardon. I have to know more about the circumstances

Sadly, this story implicitly accepts the notion that a US Senator should place keeping his own job for another term over saving the lives of others.
