SEN. KELLY : “They informed me of this in a tweet because this is not about the law. This is about the media cycle, and intimidation… We basically repeated the uniform code of military justice, and they're saying that's in violation of it. It's absurd. Comical.”

I was told that ICE is going after the "worst of the worst?" Criminals? Drug dealers? Drug traffickers?
Are they really trying to convince us all that such dastardly people are hiding by working as carpenters, roofers, landscapers, and car washers?!

ICE abducted and vanished an entire renovation crew from the lumber pickup at a Lowe’s store in Charlotte, North Carolina. On November 15, 2025, masked agents left behind the company’s car and equipment, leaving them completely abandoned.

Trump: "For generations Miami has been a haven for those fleeing communist tyranny in South Africa. I mean, if you take a look at what's going on in parts of South Africa. Look at South Africa, what's going on. Look at South America, what's going on. You know, we have a G20 meeting in South Africa."

Border Patrol agent Lairmore testifies that he was not injured by the sandwich, but he felt the impact through his ballistic vest.
The sandwich came apart and "kind of exploded" on his chest upon impact, he says.
"I could smell the onions and mustard."

Trump did on 60 Minutes what he does every time. He spews a blizzard of lies, exaggerations and assorted other falsehoods, and if (as usual) the reporter isn’t equipped or doesn’t bother to push back, he keeps going.

Here is a detailed list, via @mehdirhasan.bsky.social
zeteo.com/p/factchecki...
![• "We have no inflation." Inflation is at 3%.
• "It's at 2%. It's-- it's the perfect inflation." Inflation is at 3%.
• "Right now [grocery prices are] going down." Grocery prices are up 1.4% since
Trump came to office.
• "A year ago, we were a dead country." Not only did the US have the fastest-growing economy in the G7 in both 2023 and 2024, but the Economist magazine called it "the envy of the world."
• "11,888 murderers were let into our country." Not only is this number inaccurate, but many of the non-citizens convicted of homicide either here or abroad came in during Trump's first term.
• "Washington, DC, was... almost like a crime capital of the world." In 2023, per PolitiFact, "at least 49 other cities in the world had higher homicide rates.
• "[Biden] hardly went anywhere. Guy couldn't leave his bedroom." Not only did Joe Biden visit roughly as many countries in his term of office as Trump did in his first term, but Biden was the first US president to visit an active warzone - Ukraine - not under the control of US forces.
• "I made Middle East peace. For 3,000 years, they couldn't do it." There is no peace in Palestine, no peace deal in place, and it isn't a 3,000-year-old conflict.
• "Communist, not socialist. Communist. He's far worse than a socialist."
Zohran Mamdani is not a communist.
• "I can't give them $1.5 trillion so that they can give welfare to people that came into our country illegally." The Trump/GOP claim that Democrats want to give free healthcare to undocumented immigrants has been repeatedly debunked.
• "They emptied their mental institutions and their insane asylums-- into the United States of America." Asylum seekers don't come from "insane asylums."
Obviously.
• "One thing I can tell you, the 2020 election was rigged." It wasn't. The courts agreed.
• "And a lotta people say when it's rigged you're allowed to do it again." A lot of people don't say this. The US Constitution doesn't, for sure.](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:svawqo4jxobyyuqmixplvcux/bafkreicrg2pdihe5ntgygv6uxk37yldeygsbewwpbsjw7a7xwqjohmap6i@jpeg)
