Public opinion is souring on Trump’s immigration forces amid their ongoing operation in Minneapolis. Several recent surveys show increasing opposition to ICE’s aggressive tactics and a desire for agents to be held accountable.

No matter how awful many feared a second term would be, in the end we will all wish it had been that good.
One year ago today, Trump was sworn in and announced the US would enter a new "golden age"
That golden age is the state-sponsored murder and roundup of US citizens, terror and torture, a tanked economy, kidnapping & extortion of foreign leaders, child rape cover-up; and Trump pocketing like Caesar.

What the Trump Administration Is Buying With CBS's Reputation
The administration's story about the Renee Good shooting was falling apart. CBS gave them the credibility to put it back together.
