Noem says 'worst of the worst' arrested in NYC raid targeting criminal illegal immigrants
Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem said the Trump administration was keeping its promise to target criminal illegal immigrants and remove them from the country.

Remember early in the GWB administration? VP Cheney characterized the ~750 Guantanamo Bay prisoners as "the worst of the worst".
What the GWB administration eventually realized was that the majority of these ~750 were nothing of the kind. And incarcerating each of them in Cuba cost about $Ten times as much as similar incarceration in the lower 48.
The cost per prisoner at that time, reportedly over one million dollars each, for cab drivers, goat herders, etc.
Over the decades successive administrations Republican & Democrat alike have helped trim this population down, from ~750, to:
As of January 6, 2025, 15 detainees remain at Guantanamo Bay.

Reports have already disclosed some of these Trump administration deportees are not violent criminals. Their "crime" is simply being in the country.
Give it a few years. See whether this helps lower the $price you pay for eggs.

From 7 years ago (immediately after the Parkland shootings)
It's about both.
And while sensible taxpaying voters will appreciate you Tomi, terminating the lunatic / gun problem by fully restraining the lunatics,
we can as a temporary emergency response at least responsibly regulate guns.
Do you think when humans are at risk to the inanimate, killing machines, guns,
we should defer to the killing machines, to the detriment of the humans? Why don't you run for president Tomi?

Example demonstrating subjective presidential priority for children's drinking water safety:
Trump has had more time as President than Biden has.
What has Trump done to eliminate neurotoxic heavy metals from public drinking water?

Perhaps they would, if they were, if children were as high a priority.
Trump wants to ‘immediately’ close Education Department: ‘Big con job’
By Elaine Mallon / February 12, 2025 10:53 pmPresident Donald Trump suggested the Education Department will not exist for much longer, saying he wants to close it “immediately” and calling it a “big con job.”
“So they ranked the top 40 countries in the world,” Trump told reporters on Wednesday afternoon. “We’re ranked number 40th, but we’re ranked No. 1 in department costs per pupil, so we spend more per pupil than any other country in the world, but we’re ranked No. 40.”
