🚨DUCKWORTH CONFIRMS: DHS could have been paying TSA agents all along using existing funds.
🚨Asked TILLIS if the DHS Secretary Mullin has the discretion to just pay TSA from existing funds. "I think there is the latitude to make the argument that they could and that may be a device that we have to use if we can't get an agreement."

Additional raw footage from new angle. 👇 This woman is U.S. citizen traveling with her young daughter—according to witness who filmed video. She could not prove her citizenship to satisfaction of the agents—and was violently taken into ICE custody. San Francisco Airport

ICE is not at airports to help TSA and reduce lines. They are there (without identification) trying to arrest people, exactly as I predicted. ICE must be abolished.

This guy personally bombed fallujah and yemen, was financed by Peter Thiel, loved Nick Fuentes’ work, but even this war was too insane for him
After much reflection, I have decided to resign from my position as Director of the National Counterterrorism Center, effective today. I cannot in good conscience support the ongoing war in Iran. Iran posed no imminent threat to our nation, and it is clear that we started this war due to pressure from Israel and its powerful American lobby. It has been an honor serving under @POTUS and @DNIGabbard and leading the professionals at NCTC. May God bless America.

Straight up Nazi science. This is from Trump. The head of the GOP.
Trump: A lot of them were let in here, they shouldn't have been let in. Their genetics are not exactly your genetics. It's one of those problems

3/ So according to the San Bernardino Sheriff, every single Sheriff should set their own policy on exactly when and how a deputy could take a side job working for ICE to abduct our neighbors?

It’s really not complicated, and shouldn’t be controversial. #IceOut
The No Side Jobs for ICE Act (AB 1537) is common sense: local law enforcement shouldn’t moonlight for ICE or other agencies abducting our neighbors. Why are some police and sheriff associations OPPOSING this legislation? We need to uncover the truth 🧵
