This is abject evil. We can have a secure border without having this. I think even most people who voted for Trump didn't understand that they were voting for this, though they should have given his rhetoric.
A Texas father who had lived in the U.S. for 25 years with no criminal record was finishing his night shift as an Uber driver when immigration agents detained him.
Without being able to speak to his lawyer or a judge, he was put on a plane and sent first to Ghana, a country where he had no ties. He was then sent to his home country, despite a determination by a U.S. immigration court judge that he could not be deported there due to likely persecution. cbsn.ws/3Ude66r

"I voted for unprecedented corruption, mass murder on the high seas, an idiotic illegal war, ICE murdering citizens on the street with impunity, pardoning cop-beaters, killing poor people in Africa by the hundreds of thousands, fucking over Ukraine, and alienating our allies!"
I got what I voted for out of the last (almost) two years of the Trump administration and I’m baffled by how quickly people forgot the terrible Biden years, my column in Saturday’s @nypost nypost.com/2026/10/16/opinio…

If this is true it's a level of evil that's really, really hard to imagine. It's not a good-faith question about how much we should fund Ukraine or what realistic endgame goals are. It's choosing to put innocent civilians in harm's way. I hope there are investigations.
The U.S. may have intentionally withheld early warnings this week of Russian strikes on Ukraine, multiple sources familiar with the matter told CBS News. cbsn.ws/4yNtwNv
This episode is a good litmus test of intellectual honesty of the anti-Trump crowd.
This isn’t a direct quote from Trump, and I very much don’t think it’s a correct paraphrase. Trump has repeatedly argued that the consequences of the war, like higher gas prices, are a small price to pay compared to what an unchecked Iran could allegedly do. Last night, in especially rambling and incomplete fashion, he 1) claimed high prices are temporary and suggested they’re “artificial”; 2) contrasted that to the damage of Iran supposedly taking out a city; 3) and then, in especially confusing style, repeated his old point that “this,” as in the consequences of the war, is a small price to pay to avoid something like a a city being wiped out.
It’s Trump’s fault you kinda have to be steeped in TrumpRallySpeak to know what he was saying last night, and of course you can say it’s inappropriate regardless for the president to casually float the possibility of a city being wiped out, but the context exists and is important.

President Trump didn’t consult South Korea before launching the war against Iran, which set off a major energy crisis, the biggest stock market drop in South Korean history, a huge drop in the value of the South Korean won currency, and a spike in inflation in that country.
Let us also recall that, roughly a month before launching the war against Iran, Trump announced that the United States would “increase its tariff on imports from South Korea from 15% to 25% and also hike levies on the country’s automobiles, lumber and pharmaceutical goods.”
If you take the most aggressive and combative stance on trade possible, you cannot be surprised that the same country you’re hitting economically doesn’t want to put its soldiers and sailors in harm’s way to help you militarily.
Hard to believe the government in Seoul wasn’t eager to help the Trump administration, huh?
How long will it take to get our stature back?
U.S. President Donald J. Trump has announced that he has instructed Secretary of War Pete Hegseth to substantially reduce any future joint military exercises between the United States and South Korea, calling them “totally inappropriate and hostile” to North Korea, who he claims has been “unthreatening and respectful.”

This eighty seconds from Jon Karl was very, very strong on undermining faith in free and fair elections. By being so very clear, it allowed the audience and program to move past the ridiculous Trump falsehoods and focus on other important news including developments in Iran.

A reminder on the evolution of 2020 "stolen election" theories: First we had mail-in fraud + Dominion + "illegal law changes" (Nov–Dec 2020) then → Georgia election workers + foreign interference/Italygate (Dec 2020–Jan 2021, concurrent) then → 2,000 Mules (ballot stuffers) (2022) then → social-media-censorship revival via Twitter Files (Dec 2022) then → renewed foreign-interference claims (2024–present).
Through all this, we've had:
1. Dominion getting $787 million from Fox News for defamation
2. Rudy Giuliani admitting he lied about Georgia election workers (and the jury awarding the workers $148 million)
3. Sidney Powell admitting in court "no reasonable person would conclude" her claims of election fraud “were truly statements of fact"
4. The Gateway Pundit retracting claims of election fraud in Atlanta
5. The Media company that put out D'Souza's 2,000 Mules film apologizing and removing it after law enforcement proved it falsely accused people of fraud
6. Newsmax and One America News Network (OANN) settling with Smartmatic
It is NOT true that none of these allegations have seen a court room. Most have. Of the 64 cases of fraud that Trump and his legal team filed in court, 30 were dismissed that included a hearing on the merits, 14 were voluntarily dismissed by Trump and his allies before a hearing, and just 20 were dismissed for lack of standing before a hearing on the merits. One case, involving far too few votes to impact the election, prevailed in Pennsylvania. That case was about voter ID deadlines, not election fraud.
Those are the facts.
Whatever happens Thursday night, please try to remember them.
