Legit/real or not, WH tweet leaks are fantastic entertainment...



...on a positive note....Trump's numbers can jump 40% (0.39 x 1.4) and he'd still be trailing Clinton and Bush. So....just wait for that headline "Trumps approval numbers have grown 20% from last month!!!" and make sure you understand that qualifier...
 




Well...that would explain this mess:

CBP’s budget is larger than the combined budgets of the FBI, DEA, and ATF; all told, it employs more than 62,000 agents and operates an entire fleet of planes, helicopters, and drones. The federal government spends more on immigration enforcement than on all other federal law-enforcement agencies combined. In the last 10 years, for both immigration and border enforcement (CBP and Immigration and Customs Enforcement), the government has spent approximately $170 billion. According to its own statistics, the Border Patrol interacts with around 27 million people a year, most of whom are US citizens, and yet they are also one of the least transparent federal agencies. As ACLU of Vermont Executive Director James Lyall put it, “We don’t know very much about the Border Patrol, except that they are the most lawless, abusive, and unaccountable law enforcement agency in the country—we do know that.”

Garrett Graff, former editor of Politico and the author of the revelatory article “The Green Monster,” told me that after covering federal law-enforcement for a decade, he’d “never come across a federal law enforcement agency that is as difficult [as the Border Patrol] to get information out of.” He added: “We know shockingly little about how the [Border Patrol] works.”

This Admin isn't going to make many friends on SC with this kind of rhetoric and action. I think SCOTUS and CJ are going to be looking much more closely at how laws could be misused and abused in their judgements with this crew.....and it really won't matter if it's liberal or conservative justices on the court.

Remember, deportations of citizens for political purposes was made practice by our upstart FBI. Another red scare by a different name.
 


This was generally already described in another tweet a few days ago: ICE confiscates belongings like cellphones, IDs, any possessions and doesn't return ANY of it and drops people off with nothing.

Irrespective of your position on deporting illegal immigrants, that's simply wrong.
 


So....maybe somethings either going to fizzle or blow up quickly.
Although previous political sagas indicated "you could indict a ham sandwich" with a GJ, so still could be all bluster. Filing charges isn't a conviction....

So Trump thought that when you're President, judges answer to you, and that if a judge is "conservative" or appointed by a R, their job is to back you blindly just like any other person on your staff. That's a shocker that Trump doesn't understand the concept of checks and balances.
