Rep. Ilhan Omar posted on X calling President Trump the “leader of the P*dophile Protection Party,” saying “at least in Somalia they execute pedophiles not elect them.” Her comment came after Trump criticized Somalia and Omar in an interview and also suggested the Justice Department and Congress were “looking at” her.
Omar’s post drew strong condemnation from the White House and triggered MAGA weirdos.

Since October, federal judges across the U.S. have issued more than 4,400 rulings finding that U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) under the Trump regime is holding immigrant hostages without lawful authority — and yet the detentions continue. 
The wave of decisions stems from a shift in how the government interprets immigration law, particularly its approach to bond hearings and mandatory detention. Many courts — including judges appointed by Republican presidents — have concluded that people who could be released on bond are instead being kept in concentration camps INDEFINITELY. 
In its review of thousands of federal habeas corpus cases, Reuters reportedly found that detainees have filed over 20,000 lawsuits arguing they are being held illegally. In at least 4,421 of those, judges ruled in their favor, yet ICE often CONTINUED detaining them anyway. 
One judge from West Virginia blasted the government for ignoring clear legal standards when ordering a detainee’s release, while others noted that some people remained locked up even after judges ordered their freedom. 
The surge in legal challenges has strained the U.S. Department of Justice, with hundreds of attorneys diverted from other work to defend the government’s dystopian and inhumane position in immigration detention cases. 
Under current policies, ICE’s concentration camp population has swollen — at one point reaching roughly 68,000 people, up sharply from before — even as courts have repeatedly rejected the legal basis for holding many of them. 
The persistence of these practices despite thousands of adverse rulings raises questions about respect for constitutional protections and the limits of the judicial branch to enforce rulings.

TACO Trump Plots Humiliating Retreat as His Approval Rating Plummets
Donald Trump is quietly gearing up to roll back some of the tariffs he promised would make the country “rich as hell” as his approval rating plummets amid an affordability crisis. The president slapped tariffs of up to 50 percent on steel and aluminum imports last summer, boasting that the move would provide a “big jolt” to U.S. industry. But in a humiliating retreat, and keeping true to the nickname he has earned for his chaotic approach to trade policy—“TACO,” short for “Trump Always Chickens Out".

How a Solitary Bullet Hole Blew Apart ICE’s Web of Lies
A nonfatal shooting forced DHS to walk back its own version of events.
Michael DalyHomeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem quickly offered a variation of her standard falsehood.
She had said the same after the fatal shooting of Renee Good, an unarmed mother of three, a week earlier on Jan. 7. And she would repeat it regarding the killing of VA ICU nurse Alex Pretti on Jan. 24.
“Fearing for his life, he fired a defensive shot,” Noem said of her agent.
She told the press that the delivery driver incident constituted “an attempted murder of federal law enforcement.”
“Our officer was ambushed and attacked by three individuals who beat him with snow shovels and the handles of brooms,” she added.
That falsehood was more elaborate than the others, but received less attention because .....
