    Another coercion tactic by Trump.


    20 states and D.C. sue Trump administration for tying billions in crime victim grants to immigration enforcement

    20 states and D.C. sue Trump administration for tying billions in crime victim grants to immigration enforcement

    excerpt:

    "The Trump-era Justice Department added a new condition to those grants that denies funding to any program that "violates (or promotes or facilitates the violation of) federal immigration law." That includes failing to "give access to [Department of Homeland Security] agents, or honor DHS requests."

    But the states that joined Monday's lawsuit argue that the rule is illegal, since the Reagan-era law that set up the federal government's crime victim grant programs doesn't say anything about immigration enforcement."

    Trump will say that his immigration crackdown is related to reducing crime, and, therefore, he can cut off money to crime victims if states aren't bowing to his immigration enforcement demands.

    On the topic of Reagan, he withheld 10% of federal highway funds to states unless they implemented a 21-year-old age for purchasing alcohol. Apparently, the claimed link between the two was that a higher drinking age would make the highways safer and, therefore, it was justified to withhold federal highway funds from states that didn't comply.

    Trump is outright withholding all of the money, citing issues that aren't even related to the purpose of the funds (i.e., cutting off crime victims funds because of immigration enforcement issues).

    During his first term, Trump made the same remark about healthcare. Who could have thought it would be so complicated.

    The American public has been waiting over ten years for Trump to give his plan that will provide big, beautiful, low-cost, high-quality healthcare for everyone

    Trump stated at the time that his healthcare plan would be big and beautiful and that he would implement it fast.

    Trump said during the 2024 campaign that he would bring prices down fast.

    His usual "We're gonna do it and do it fast."

    Trump says he knows more about healthcare than anyone.

    He knows more about stopping wars than anyone.

    He said at a rally that he knows more about the Bible than anyone (yet he was unable to recite even one verse when asked by journalists).

    He also rapes children. It’s the most important part of his legacy.

    The usual remarks can be expected from Trump.

    'They are our beloved and cherished tourists, after the kneel down to my demands.'

    No one knows more than Trump about underestimating complex problems.

    Trump using American taxpayer dollars to fight all the tough crime.


    DC residents question troops’ focus on low-crime areas amid Trump takeover

    excerpt:

    "In the Mount Pleasant neighborhood, which is home to a large Hispanic population, US Immigration and Customs Enforcement (Ice) shared a video on Sunday of at least seven agents taking down a banner supporting immigrant neighbors from a public park. “Mount Pleasant melts Ice,” the banner read.

    After removing it, a masked agent says: “Mine. We’re taking America back baby.” According to a local reporter and a neighbor’s surveillance camera footage, the agents left a dildo in its place. The banner was quickly replaced."

    Fox News Anchor Brett Baier, pulled over and ticketed in D.C.

    Cop stop for speaking on handheld phone.

    Wow Brett: would think that you would have a handless speaker phone in that Benz.

    Good to see equal opportunity cops ticketing big shots.
