Trump spent $42 million of taxpayer money on 250 Cadillac Escalades, and Republicans have the nerve to criticize a mom on SNAP buying cookies for her kid.

Adam Kidan was ordered to pay $21.7 million in restitution for wire fraud and conspiracy in a major casino boat scam.

Sentenced to nearly 6 years. Served about half.

He donated over $270,000 to Trump’s committees and hosted a fundraiser at Mar-a-Lago.

July 2026: full pardon. The remaining restitution was wiped clean.

🚨BREAKING: An ICE agent was filmed sitting on top of a man and repeatedly punching him in the head during an arrest in Plainfield, New Jersey.

In the video, three ICE agents are already on top of the man. One agent is holding his legs, another is sitting on him, and a third is restraining his arms and putting him in handcuffs.

Then, the agent sitting on him starts punching him directly in the head.

The man has one hand handcuffed and is using his other hand to try to shield his head from the punches.

The person filming yells, “Hey!”

The agent looks directly at them… And then seconds later punches the man in the head AGAIN.

ICE agents do NOT get unlimited permission to beat someone just because they are arresting them.

The Fourth Amendment protects people from unreasonable force during an arrest. That means ICE agents cannot just use whatever amount of force they want because they are making an arrest.

ICE’s own detention standards say force is supposed to be limited to what is necessary to gain control, and explicitly state that physical force or restraints are not to be used as punishment.

Looking at the video it appears the agents have control of the man…

The man was already partially handcuffed and was using his free hand to try to protect his head from being punched.

So why is an agent repeatedly punching him in the head?

This is another agent that needs to be investigated…

Because being arrested does not mean you lose your right to be free from excessive force.

Michele Fiore raised $70,000 to build a statue for a Las Vegas cop killed in the line of duty. She spent it on cosmetic surgery, her rent, and her daughter’s wedding. A jury convicted her in two hours. Trump pardoned her before she was ever sentenced.

Last year, a Guatemalan man living in Overland, Missouri was arrested by ICE and deported. A few weeks ago his wife, who had sought asylum, self-deported to rejoin him.

Their bodies were just found in a field, bound and gagged, with their 14-month-old daughter abandoned nearby.

The USA has no universal healthcare, but it does have 49 billionaires who made their wealth from private healthcare. 🤔

Joseph Schwartz took $39M out of his nursing home employees’ paychecks: their Social Security, their Medicare, their taxes.

Sentenced to 3 years and millions in restitution.

He paid nearly $1 million to lobbyists for access.

Three months later: full pardon. He barely spent any time in prison.

The Bureau of Land Management just approved an AI data center on public land.

Never been done before.

Not through a real environmental review either. They dug up an old solar farm's approval from 2023 and decided it counted for a completely different project. No new review. No public comment period. No public say at all.

The site sits on desert tortoise habitat outside Boulder City, Nevada, three miles from residents' homes.

The company behind it is Skylar Capital Management, a Texas hedge fund.

Its water will come from the Colorado River Basin.

The same river that gives nearly 40 million people across seven states their drinking water.

The same river where farmers and ranchers use almost 80 percent of the supply, and it's already so short that farmers this year left fields unplanted and ranchers are shrinking their cattle herds just to survive the season.

The same river so overdrawn that seven states have spent months failing to agree on how to split what's left, and this week, the federal government takes that decision out of their hands entirely.

The same river where Navajo, Hopi, and Paiute nations have waited 118 years for water they were legally promised back in 1908, while states actively fight to block them from getting it.

Now a hedge fund wants a straw in that river too, for a server farm.

Who decided an AI data farm needs water more than the 40 million people who depend on the Colorado River? 💧

‼️FYI: A Texas man has been arrested after authorities alleged he charged migrants $200 each by claiming he would take them to places where they could seek asylum, but instead drove them to ICE detention facilities.

Investigators say he falsely presented himself as someone offering help before allegedly turning the migrants over to federal immigration authorities.

The case has sparked debate over immigration enforcement, deception, and whether private citizens should play any role in border-related operations.

Some argue he helped authorities identify people who entered the country illegally. Others believe taking money under false pretenses from vulnerable people is wrong, regardless of the outcome.

🚨BREAKING: A masked ICE agent was filmed carrying a toddler in pajamas… and walking away.

And given everything we now know about ICE, that should alarm the hell out of you.

Because we are being asked to trust that someone is a legitimate federal agent just because they say they’re ICE… while their face is covered and they refuse to give out their badge numbers.

And when that person is carrying away a fucking toddler, that is not something we should be expected to just shrug off.

Especially when we have learned that ICE’s vetting process is deeply flawed.

The ICE agent who fatally shot Johan Sebastián Durán Guerrero in Maine had years of family court records detailing allegations of domestic and child abuse, including protective orders and other serious red flags.

And somehow, he was still given a badge, a gun, and the authority of the federal government to arrest people, and take children into custody.

And that’s not the only problem…

We are also seeing cases of people impersonating federal immigration agents… including masked individuals using law-enforcement-style clothing, and equipment, to make themselves appear legitimate.

So, when you have a masked man, claiming to be ICE, carrying away a toddler, the question everyone needs to be asking is…

WHO THE FUCK IS THIS PERSON?

How are we supposed to trust a system that has already failed to properly vet the people it gives this kind of power to?

And how the hell are we supposed to tell the difference when criminals can easily pretend to be ICE, too?

This is the terrifying reality of creating a system where people are expected to obey masked men carrying children away… simply because they claim to have government authority.

The data center is anticipated to consume 7 times as much energy as the city of New Orleans.

A NYT investigation found that Trump spent far more than the $400 million of taxpayer money that the regime publicly disclosed, on retrofitting his new Air Force One, which ultimately was not safe enough to fly in recent weeks. Additionally, the costs were even greater because things were done on a rushed basis.

The biggest scandal of the Obama administration was the IRS giving extra scrutiny to Tea Party groups, saying they might be political. Under Trump, staffers freely admitted they canceled every grant going to a blue state to punish blue states. Not even a front page story.
