Nothing screams 21st-century leadership like deporting people using a law written when powdered wigs were in fashion.

America’s deportation Death Star, painstakingly assembled to catch…mostly not the people they keep screaming about on TV.

Protestors rally at the White House against Israeli bombing of Gaza, because when your immigration policies are this chaotic, people have plenty to protest.

Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth, leading the charge to make America's military _great again_ by narrowing down who can wear the uniform. Spoiler: it's not as inclusive as you might hope.

In a spectacular show of bureaucratic incompetence, the Department of Homeland Security has decided that the way to combat leaks is to strap employees to a lie detector like it’s a scene straight out of a bad spy flick. Are they really so clueless that they think dampening employee morale with invasive polygraph tests will solve their issues with transparency? Meanwhile, Secretary Noem’s idea of accountability starts and ends with pointing fingers at ‘leakers’ instead of addressing the systemic failures within her own organization. This isn’t security; it’s a farce that’s as entertaining as it is absurd.

President Trump and Secretary Pete Hegseth: Reshaping the military, one discriminatory policy at a time.

Trump just **turned Guantánamo Bay into an immigration detention center**, shipping nearly 180 migrants to a **notorious military prison** where they were **kept in solitary confinement, stripped, shackled, and driven to suicidal despair.** DHS called them the **“worst of the worst”**—but somehow, **none of them had criminal records.** Because nothing says **“land of the free”** like throwing asylum seekers into **a black site known for torture.**

The Trump administration just fired multiple immigration judges, further crippling an already overwhelmed immigration court system with a 3.6 million case backlog—because mass deportations apparently don’t need due process. The Justice Department’s Executive Office for Immigration Review axed at least 18 judges, including some hired during the Biden administration, prompting allegations that the firings were purely political. The move contradicts bipartisan efforts to hire more immigration judges and speed up case processing, with even legal experts calling it a self-inflicted disaster. Meanwhile, Trump’s “border czar” Tom Homan is ramping up mass deportations, recruiting agents from DEA, FBI, and ATF while seeking Pentagon funding to hire private contractors for detention centers. Justice? Efficiency? Who needs ‘em when you have chaos.

Turns out ICE isn’t just rounding people up—they’re also rounding up old press releases, slapping fresh timestamps on them, and letting Google do the rest. Thousands of outdated ICE announcements, some over a decade old, suddenly flooded search results with a brand-new “Updated: 01/24/2025” label, making it seem like mass raids were happening nationwide. Convenient timing, given Trump’s latest deportation crusade. Immigration lawyers and tech experts uncovered the scheme, which conveniently disappeared after media inquiries—because nothing says oops, you caught us quite like quietly reverting the timestamps. But the damage was done: panic spread, fear took hold, and Kristi Noem got her photo op in an ICE vest. Mission accomplished.

Nothing says unity like Pete Hegseth tasked with excluding soldiers from their own army.
