Interesting series by @insightcrime.org on how Trump has merged the war on gangs with his anti-immigration agenda.
My concerns with the TBI Director's fear-mongering and misrepresentations stated during his budget hearing last year are mentioned in the second story.

Tariffs = Taxes
Fact: our costs of living are rising because of failed economic policies enacted by the White House.
This president promised to lower prices. Not only has he broken his promise, he has caused prices to increase substantially.

Thanks to the organizers of today’s Rural Voices Town Hall in Lebanon at Cumberland University. We covered a lot of issues of importance to Tennessee families. Public conversations matter.

GOP titled a bill “beautiful” that decimates Medicaid, eliminating health coverage for 100s of thousands, constitutes one of greatest transfers of wealth from America’s working poor to the wealthiest 1%, and adds $3.8 Trillion to US debt. Nothing beautiful about that. #TeamJRC #TN55

It's reprehensible to pick on and discriminate against children. It's unethical for an attorney to introduce legislation s/he knows to be unconstitutional.
