“This is what corruption looks like,” Rep. Jasmine Crockett said about a firm with ties to Kristi Noem secretly working on a DHS ad campaign. “They’re stealing money from the American people’s pockets and depositing it into their bank accounts.”
Lawmakers Call for Probe of How Firm Tied to Kristi Noem Got Piece of $220 Million DHS Ad Contracts

“So I would encourage DHS, the FBI, law enforcement around this country to reallocate resources away from stunts at Home Depot and picking up grandmas at immigration court back to the places that keep our country safe."

“Shock and dismay”? Are we really? Let’s call it what it is: a predictable consequence of months of normalized chaos and inflammatory rhetoric surrounding the White House. If troops are being targeted near the nation’s most secure residence, it’s not some unforeseeable horror.

Today is Thanksgiving for many, but for Indigenous communities it marks the beginning of colonization, displacement, and violence. Images like this show a more accurate version of what was happening while the U.S. was being built on stolen land.

I tackle three building blocks of the misleading “realignment” narrative:

1) The idea that U.S. society moved right in accordance with the broader outlines of Trumpism’s vision;

2) that Trump is the tribune of the working class;

3) that he is building a stable multiracial coalition.

What do both sides agree on?

The National Guard don't deserve to be shot. They are heroes serving their country, and they deserve better.

Security must be provided when troops are deployed because troops become a target even when deployed domestically.

This is called “chain refoulment” and it’s illegal under both U.S. and international law. And the State Department and ICE know very well what Ghana is doing and simply don’t care.
ICE deported a woman who owned a home in the US for 30 years. A judge banned ICE from deporting her to Sierra Leone where she had been tortured, so it deported her to Ghana, which kidnapped her and sent her back Sierra Leone anyway. ICE is part of this illegal conspiracy.
