Democrats have spent months pushing basic ICE oversight. These are standard across law enforcement.
But House Republicans have refused to agree to any of this.
The public deserves to know why ICE should be the exception.

So the FBI's priority list under Kash Patel is:
1. Investigate a journalist for reporting on the Director’s girlfriend
2. Sue The Atlantic for reporting on the Director’s drinking problem
3. Avoid arresting a single powerful man implicated in the Epstein files
Did I miss anything?
Rank-and-file agents get fired for this. Their boss sues the reporters who expose it.
Patel is dangerously unfit and cannot remain in his role.
The FBI has a zero-tolerance policy for alcohol abuse, and even the newest recruits are held to that strict standard.
Instead of owning his conduct or answering the questions raised by his own agents, Patel hit The Atlantic with a $250 million defamation suit.
Today would be a great day for Trump to fire Kash Patel.

Two decades ago, I started my career fighting for clean air, clean water, and a livable planet.
On this Earth Day, I’ll be honest with you: the fight has never been harder.

And while he torches the clean energy buildout here at home, China is racing ahead on solar, wind, batteries, and the supply chains that will define the next century.
Working families will pay for it twice, once at the meter and once when the jobs go overseas.

That’s because there is no emergency.
Only a president abusing his powers to pay back donors and punish industries he dislikes.
Trump is stamping “national security” on every giveaway to Big Oil and Big Coal while refusing to say what the actual security threat is.
In court, his administration cannot produce a single document explaining the supposed threats.
This is your daily reminder that Trump and Republicans are spending billions of your tax dollars on an unauthorized war in Iran and Stephen Miller’s ICE agenda while gutting Medicaid, slashing SNAP, and driving up your health care costs.

Here is the truth about President Trump’s tariff mess: the American people got stuck with the bill, and most of us will never see a penny back. 🧵

So let’s be clear about what happened.
The president imposed illegal taxes.
Families paid the price for over a year.
The courts struck them down.
Now businesses may get refunds, but working families almost certainly will not.
And a new round of tariffs is already on the way.
Most have made no such promise.
Economists expect many businesses to simply pocket the money, especially since the president is already planning new tariffs to replace the illegal ones.
The everyday families who paid higher prices at the checkout counter get nothing. A mom who spent extra on groceries for a year cannot file a claim.
A handful of companies, like FedEx and Costco, have said they will try to pass refunds back to customers, and they should be commended. But most?
In February, the Supreme Court ruled many of Trump’s tariffs were illegal. Now the government has to refund over $166 billion, plus interest piling up at roughly $22 million every single day.
Here is the catch.
Only the businesses that paid the tariffs can apply for refunds.
