Good immigration policy must be grounded in two principles: security and humanity.
We can enforce the law and remove violent criminals while still upholding due process, human dignity, and America’s core values.
That balance is worth reflecting on this Christmas.

Nationally, analyses of ICE detention data indicate that roughly 73% of detainees have no criminal record, while about 5% have been convicted of violent offenses.
Publicly available government data and independent analyses show that the majority of people being taken into ICE custody do not have criminal convictions.
Many have lived in the United States for years, worked, raised families, and contributed to their communities.
Multiple government reports, court filings, and congressional oversight visits have documented serious concerns about overcrowding, medical care, and detainees’ ability to reach family.
Important questions remain unanswered about confinement conditions and whether basic rights are being protected.
I will always support the deportation of violent criminals who threaten public safety. But immigration enforcement must also be lawful, targeted, and humane.
This holiday season, tens of thousands of people are being held in ICE detention facilities.
From our family to yours, we wish you a wonderful Christmas Eve!
A dangerous storm is impacting much of Southern California this holiday. Emergency personnel are deploying statewide. I pray that all residents follow their guidance and remain safe.
We will weather this storm together.
Law enforcement in America belongs to civilian authorities and the courts, not soldiers sent into our cities at a president’s whim.
Even in a moment when democratic norms are under extraordinary strain, the Supreme Court drew a line and reinforced that presidents don’t get to turn the military into a domestic police force.
Shutting them down weakens the grid, kills jobs, and creates a real security risk by leaving us with less reliable power when demand is surging.
This move is unbelievably stupid.
These offshore wind projects went through years of review by the FAA and the Pentagon and were already approved, built, and in some cases operating.
Claiming “national security” now is nonsense.
Anyone standing in the way of justice for the Epstein victims must be held to account. Release the files.
Follow the law.
Let the truth come out.

This Epstein files cover-up should cost Pam Bondi her job.
When the Justice Department delays or withholds records tied to one of the most notorious criminal cases in modern history, we must demand accountability.

I’ve been watching 60 Minutes my entire life. It has earned trust by telling hard truths, even when powerful people didn’t like it.
That’s why this moment is so disturbing.
A fully vetted segment was pulled at the last minute, and its own reporter, the excellent Sharyn Alfonsi, says the call was political. Bari Weiss and anyone else who did this should be ashamed.
This is how journalism dies.

Confidence in the Supreme Court is at a historic low, and that should worry anyone who believes in the rule of law.
The Court is increasingly seen as partisan, precedent is being discarded, and confirmation fights have turned lifetime seats into political trophies.
This reform isn’t about ideology. It applies evenly, looks forward, and strengthens judicial independence rather than weakening it.
A Supreme Court earns legitimacy by serving the Constitution, not politics.
Regular terms help restore that legitimacy.
