    Trump is a reverse Robin Hood type of public hero.

    He robs from the poor and gives to the rich, yet some of the lower end of society loves him for it.

    Donald Trump Talks About Taking Off His Shirt To Show 'Wounds.' Internet Can't Even.

    excerpt:

    “Together, we stood up to the communists, Marxists and fascists to defend religious liberty like no other president has ever done,” he told the Faith & Freedom Coalition in Washington, D.C. “And I have the wounds all over my body. If I took this shirt off you’d see a beautiful, beautiful person but you’d see wounds all over me. I’ve taken a lot of wounds, I can tell you. More than I suspect any president ever.”

    ICE Removes Injured Woman From Hospital - MyNewsLA.com

    excerpt:

    Center officials claimed the officers twisted her arms and threw her to the ground, leading to injuries so severe she began vomiting and choking in the car while she was handcuffed and was left in her own vomit for about eight hours between the of her initial detention and when she was admitted to the hospital.

    In a statement to the Los Angeles Times, U.S. Department of Homeland Security officials said Portillo “is an illegal alien from El Salvador who has been removed from the United States twice and has been arrested for crimes of false identification, theft, and burglary.”

    But Portillo, in her statement through the law center, said she has “never had a single criminal conviction.”

    Video shows moment ICE agents, detainees react to gunfire at Dallas facility

    excerpt:

    "Evidence indicates that Jahn was targeting ICE agents, but ended up killing one detainee and critically injuring two others, investigators said. After opening fire, Jahn shot himself and died. A bullet casing found near him had “anti-ICE” written on it, FBI Director Kash Patel said."

    excerpt:

    Family members of Mr. Guzman Fuentes, the man who was killed, also spoke up after they said they were notified on Friday by the Salvadoran consulate in Dallas.

    “How can you try to save yourself, tied up like that, like one of the worst criminals?” Santos Odilia Rodriguez, Mr. Guzman Fuentes’s aunt, asked. She said she tried not to picture his last moments, shackled in the back of a white van, with no place to go. He was shot in the head, and his relatives were trying to determine if there could be an open-casket funeral.

    “He was trapped inside that van, shot as if he was not a human,” Ms. Rodriguez said. “How can you defend yourself when your hands and feet are tied up?

    Surveillance video, released by the Dallas Fox News affiliate, confirmed that detainees aboard the white transit van were shackled and handcuffed as they fled the van for their lives, shuffling and tumbling as federal agents pointed them to safety.

    Alabama builders rethink deportations as raids disappear hundreds of their ‘God-fearing, family-oriented’ immigrant workers
    By Eva Roytburg

    Alabama builders rethink deportations as raids disappear hundreds of their ‘God-fearing, family-oriented’ immigrant workers | Fortune

    excerpt:

    "On construction sites across Baldwin County, Ala., workers are vanishing mid-shift. Not because they quit, but because immigration agents hauled them away—the “God-fearing, family-oriented” laborers who braved blistering summer heat on rooftops to support their families.

    Now, contractors warn the raids are deepening a labor shortage that already threatens the state’s economic prosperity: Even in Alabama, where 65% of voters backed President Donald Trump with immigration as a top campaign issue."

    The voters in Alabama knew about Trump's upcoming immigration raids in a second term, thinking that immigrants were supposedly stealing all the great paying jobs.

    It's worthwhile to think things through a little before voting instead of allowing oneself to become immersed in senseless campaign emotion.

    More compelling evidence by Trump administration (in their minds).


    Kilmar Abrego Garcia moved to Pennsylvania detention center

    excerpt:

    "The gang allegation relates to his detention in Maryland back in 2019, when Prince George’s County Police Department officers said he was seen wearing a “Chicago Bulls hat and a hoodie with rolls of money covering the eyes, ears and mouth of the presidents on the separate denominations,” court documents state. Officials claimed the paraphernalia was evidence that he was “in good standing with the MS-13.” He was not charged at the time."

    Garcia moved to detention center in PA.


    Kilmar Abrego Garcia moved to Pennsylvania detention center

    excerpt:

    In a statement, Tricia McLaughlin, assistant secretary for public affairs at DHS, confirmed Abrego Garcia’s transfer to Moshannon, and said he is a “MS-13 gang member, human trafficker, serial domestic abuser, and child predator.”

    “We are not going to allow this criminal Salvadoran gang member to be loose on U.S. streets to terrorize American citizens,” she said.

    The mouth on McLaughlin of the DHS.

    Garcia should sue her for defamation.

    And sue Trump for false arrest.

    Industry leaders are asking for work-visa programs.

    Don't expect Stephen Miller to allow it. It's beyond a work issue to him. It's a matter of people and groups outside his narrow acceptance cone he doesn't like and wants deported.

    https://www.politico.com/news/2025/09/22/why-democrats-cant-match-trumps-gerrymander-push-00572965

    excerpt:

    "Republicans have been busy in recent weeks seeking to achieve that: Texas, Indiana, Missouri and Florida have all either redrawn their congressional districts or floated the idea, in hopes of adding new Republican seats to the House. At Trump’s behest, the Texas GOP added five seats favorable to Republicans. Texas, Indiana, Missouri and Florida all have Republican trifectas — where the GOP controls both chambers of the legislature and the governor’s seat — making it much easier to consider redistricting.

    But of the 15 states with Democratic trifectas, only Maryland and Illinois’ legislatures have clear pathways to redraw lines that could make seats more competitive for Democrats. California and New York, meanwhile, can ask voters to change state gerrymandering laws to redistrict down the road."

    Trump loves little pageantry stunts like that one. No risk 'military' operations that try to make him look tough.

    It's remarkable that ICE Barbie (Kristi Noem) didn't participate, wearing yet another one of her Barbie outfits.

    Trump said he was sending the military into Chicago to fight crime.

    He chickened out.

    He did a photo-op stunt on the river instead.

    I saw a pile of videos shot in downtown Portland today revealing no war zone whatsoever.

    It actually looks like a nice place.
