Breaking News: The EPA will stop considering lives saved when setting pollution limits and instead calculate only the cost to businesses.

In a reversal, the agency plans to calculate only the cost to industry when setting pollution limits, and not the monetary value of saving human lives, documents show.

Why is this ICE agent’s weapon not on safety? Why is his hand on the trigger. What is going on @dhs these people are operating around US Citizens with less discipline than 18 year olds in the military. A round goes off because of this amateur.

This daycare fraud case from right here in North Carolina will blow your mind. For years, this couple of sleazebags conspired to grift taxpayer money from the government, sometimes by endangering children entrusted in their care. Again and again, state inspectors shut down their

Last April, I left @USCIS heartbroken by how career civil servants were treated — and honestly terrified for what that meant for America’s legal immigration system. What I saw inside wasn’t normal — and I couldn’t unsee it.

BREAKING: Trump’s State Department just declared abortion, DEI, and LGBTQ+ rights “human rights violations” — and the world is stunned. In a jaw-dropping escalation of the Trump administration’s war on basic freedoms, the State Department has quietly rewritten the definition of

The federal government just dismissed charges against this woman who it had accused of deliberately attacking its agents and trying to kill them. Instead, it now appears they tried to murder her. Will Chicago or Illinois police prosecute?
ICE shot a latina FIVE TIMES (then lied) and now she just WALKED out of the hospital. "Do something, bitch," shouted a federal mediocrity before they opened fire. Now I bet she's about to. Don't sleep on Latinas, esp in Chicago boyyy https://t.co/pi0TRyJnoK

US citizen Maria Greeley, a Latina who was adopted, was walking home from work downtown when masked agents zip tied her. They said she “doesn’t look like a Greeley.” This is how the government treats people under current deportation policies. https://t.co/plQxq1w87L

Bumping for anyone who didn’t see it yesterday. The Trump admin is diverting agents away from trafficking, child-exploitation, and terrorism cases to inflate deportation stats. The consequences are showing up in real investigations. Congress & the public deserves answers.
Every Hill staffer should make sure their boss reads this. Trump is pulling agents off child-exploitation, trafficking, and terrorism-finance cases to bulk up its political deportation push. This isn’t just a shift in priorities. It’s a blow to public safety.

Please read the article and share it widely. Public safety depends on letting these investigators do the work they are trained for—work that protects children, disrupts traffickers, and counters real national-security threats. Those missions can’t wait. https://t.co/SdhyKLtYVD

Under President Trump, an agency intended to keep Americans safe has diverted resources from combating child abuse, trafficking and terrorism.

Democrats should be saying this clearly: This administration isn’t prioritizing the crimes that put Americans at the greatest risk. It’s prioritizing mass deportation numbers above all else—even when that means leaving kids, survivors, and national-security cases hanging.

If Trump’s team can’t tell whether an apartment inside the U.S. is actually filled with gang members, how the hell can we trust them to know that the 80 people they’ve killed on boats in international waters were truly narco-terrorists?
Stephen Miller said the building was “filled with TdA terrorists.” DOJ prosecutors have not filed criminal charges or shown evidence that anyone arrested in the raid belonged to the Tren de Aragua gang. https://t.co/ygwv4cdAYl

Jesus Christ, a “three hops from a TdA member = we can kill you” is terrifying. That means if an unrelated friend of the cousin of your neighbor is a member of a Tren de Aragua, the Trump admin says you’re fair game for a lethal strike if they think you’re smuggling drugs.
"Ms. Jacobs said Pentagon officials said they needed to prove only that the targeted people were connected to designated terrorist organizations, even if the connection is 'as much as THREE HOPS AWAY FROM A KNOWN MEMBER' of a designated terrorist organization."

“These weren’t activists, these weren’t paid protesters, these were literally my neighbors coming out of their homes at 10 o’clock in the morning because they saw lawless agents acting in violent ways,” said Brian Kolp, a former Cook County prosecutor.

Residents came out of their homes Saturday as ICE agents chased people on foot, deployed tear gas and took three people into custody in the Old Irving Park neighborhood.

The White House now claims it’s legally barred from using emergency funds to keep SNAP running. Journalists discovered that this directly contradicts the USDA’s publicly released shutdown plan (below). The White House wants to end SNAP and is lying to protect themselves.

This article is one of the most chilling examples yet of how seamlessly ICE—now the highest-funded U.S. law enforcement agency—will be pivoting to enforcement against U.S. citizens.
New: Recent official remarks & federal contracts reflect ICE intends to use some of its growing, powerful surveillance tools to probe what the administration defines as ‘Antifa’. Civil-rights watchdogs say ICE may now have broad authority to surveil dissenting Americans
