The United States government is no longer able to protect us from real hazards, such as flash floods, because it’s shifting funds to fake hazards, such as a non-existent immigrant crime wave. www.nytimes.com/2025/07/05/u...

Homan sounds like in the movie, "we don't need no "Stinkin badges" or due process, we can do what we want as federal agents? "Stinkin' badges" is a paraphrase of a line of dialogue from the 1948 film The Treasure of the Sierra Madre. The irony of a Mexican saying this.

The humane way that was the more common practice before random people being kidnapped & scared to leave their homes. Things like going into work places where intel showed there may be illegal immigrants working there- you go in normally & check their papers, if they don't have them, go from there.

I do agree with most of your statement :) I work in the federal system myself, and from what I see, they’re acting on intel. At least that’s primarily what’s happening. The internet and news mislead people.

That said, if agents are deployed to detain someone and others are present, they likely won’t be overlooked. ICE operates as the interior enforcement arm, while Border Patrol is responsible for apprehensions at or near the border during entry.
jul 7, 2025, 1:34 am • 0 0 • view
That being said, I am not opposed to allocating funds if the estimate of over 10 million undocumented immigrants is accurate, the U.S. is simply too large for Border Patrol to manage alone. ✌️
jul 7, 2025, 1:34 am • 0 0 • view
Also, having more employees at the borders would help - both to process immigration applications and dealing with those that traverse the border illegally. Putting money into ICE where people are terrorized instead of protected is hypocrital if they claim their goal is help. ✌️

Nevertheless, it doesn't help to say that warnings were not provided to TX authorities. They were. Climate change is causing more severe weather events with increased associated costs & deaths. The Trump admin is actively thwarting attempts to mitigate climate change. That's the real story here. 🤷

The Feds are now responsible for flash floods!?!?! Seems more like a local issue to me. But Bobby Reich is a big, socialist government kinda guy. He gets paid by the State of California to tweet propaganda all day. Worthless human.

Got any evidence of the state paying him? I thought not. Keep your baseless lies to xitter, please.

America my beautiful. I think we have again been deceived about the US Constitution. The 9th Amendment mandates that rights given by the Constitution shall "not" be construed to deny or disparage others rights. This means: Constitutional power shall "not" be used, to take away constitutional rights.
