Cable Forum - President Trump 2.0

Under Biden Administration, Justice Dept. Began Examining Ilhan Omar’s Finances

“The DOJ and Congress are looking at ‘Congresswoman’ Illhan Omar, who left Somalia with NOTHING, and is now reportedly worth more than 44 Million Dollars,” he wrote. “Time will tell all.”
It was not clear whether Mr. Trump was referring to another investigation altogether or how he arrived at the $44 million figure.

Ms. Omar, a Somali-born refugee who emigrated to the United States when she was 12, has repeatedly denied any wrongdoing.
“Sorry, Trump, your support is collapsing and you’re panicking,” she wrote on social media on Monday. “Right on cue, you’re deflecting from your failures with lies and conspiracy theories about me. Years of ‘investigations’ have found nothing.”

Mr. Trump recently called her “garbage” at a cabinet meeting.

Ms. Omar has been under intense pressure since her community became a main target of the Trump administration’s crackdown on immigrants.
“I think we’re in for a lot of pain as Americans during this presidency,” she said in an interview with The New York Times in December.
“There is a desire to purify the country from any brown and Black people,” Ms. Omar said. “A lot of their policies and rhetoric seems to be rooted in white supremacy.”

‘Latinas for Trump’ Co-Founder Warns Immigration Will Cost G.O.P. the Midterms

The Trump administration’s immigration crackdown over the last year has gone from uncomfortable to untenable for Ileana Garcia, a Republican state senator in Florida.

A Transportation Security Administration officer at the Tallahassee airport overheard her speaking Spanish and asked whether Ms. Garcia, who was born in Miami, was an American citizen. She worried for the first time that Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents might stop her son, a young adult, because he looks Hispanic. Constituents have asked her for help finding immigrant relatives arrested by ICE.

Ms. Garcia, 56, has had enough. The Republican Party is in trouble, she said in an interview, predicting that it will lose this year’s midterm elections if the White House does not soon reconsider its harsh immigration enforcement tactics.

Re: President Trump 2.0

I dont think an event from nearly two weeks before is particularly relevant unless one of those agents were also there on Saturday and remembered him and decided to get their own back.

It’s been stated that the aim of ICE flooding Minnesota is to find and remove criminal illegal immigrants - Minnesota has an estimated 100,000 illegal immigrants, whilst Florida has nearly one and a quarter million and Texas has nearly two million.

I wonder why ICE aren’t "flooding" those States with ICE personnel?

Since when did facts and an evidence base matter in Trump's regime?
