It costs about $100 a year for the US to provide antiretroviral drugs to kids in low income countries to stop them from getting AIDS. We cut that and are spending what it costs to keep 1,700,000 kids from getting AIDS this year on these —>

One reason it was so surprising that Democratic lawmakers didn’t push harder for details on the El Salvador deal is that combating MS-13 has long been a policy priority. The terms looked suspicious from the start—and now it’s clear that Trump actively undermined U.S. security.
The Trump admin gave Bukele MS-13 informants and high ranking gang members so they could put random hairdressers in an El Salvador gulag. The program was such a disaster that the admin stopped it so now we gave away these informants for nothing.

FULL REPORT: Colombian public media reports that a U.S. military strike on a boat on September 15—the second attack on a vessel by the U.S. in the Caribbean that we’re aware of—was a Colombian boat and was in Colombian territorial waters. At least one of the three victims

So the administration's argument is that these men are dangerous narco-terrorists waging war against the US and thus deserved to be executed, but also that the US should send them home rather than to try prosecute them in court. Makes sense.
Breaking News: The Trump administration has decided to repatriate two survivors of a deadly U.S. strike on suspected drug runners in the Caribbean Sea rather than prosecute or hold them in military detention, people with knowledge of the matter said. https://t.co/YTpRT3lkxY

This is just…so refreshingly honest, vulnerable, and human. Could use more of this in politics.

When this happened earlier this year with a cop in Maine, DHS spokeswoman @TriciaOhio accused the local police department of "reckless reliance" on E-Verify — which DHS runs. She claimed they should have done a better background check and not relied on the DHS system. Seriously.
Another bonkers story coming out of Operation Midway Blitz in Chicagoland: ICE took Hanover Park police Officer Radule Bojovic for allegedly overstaying a visa and being here illegally. The village says he had papers and status.

The people around Donald Trump are taking advantage of his diminished capacity to break the law. Whatever they do now, we won’t forget — and we will hold them accountable.

Wow. New Economist poll finds only 34% of Americans say ICE's use of force has been justified, vs 51% who say it's been excessive. And they oppose agents wearing masks by 52-35. Yep, ICE is becoming a pariah agency, and that's gaining deep penetration in the culture:
ICE's military raids and masked kidnappings are resonating deeply/negatively in the cultural spaces we keep hearing Dems need to reach: Manosphere, Joe Rogan, country music, disengaged voters. That's rare and it gives Ds an opening to engage. Me on this: https://t.co/DlVpsGxiWF

Newsom: This president appears unhinged… seems listless… he seems, dare I say, in decline—cognitively, and… physically. These are just the rantings of someone who needs an intervention, needs some help, needs to be stabilized.
