"The response is always, always, always that intelligence points to narcotrafficking. They don’t offer anything else. They never identify the drug, almost never identify the armed group they suspect them to be working with, and there is never any evidence of drugs being recovered in the water,” 1/

Eye-opening article. Heads-up, Okies, and everyone else.

We’re expecting to see text of a budget resolution tomorrow. That would be the first of many steps in enacting a reconciliation bill, which can be passed even with all Democrats opposed.

We’re expecting it to be a slush fund for ICE and CBP, but we’ll have a few more details tomorrow. Follow along.

The consequences of thinking “I saw a video online” trumps “millions of scientists with years of training and a deep understanding of scientific method have analyzed billions of data points and reached a judgment.”
