THREAD: DHS published a report a few days ago highlighting its first year successes.

Unfortunately, this report has been overshadowed by the recent Border Patrol shooting.

Let's take a look at what Trump's DHS has accomplished so far.

🧵🧵🧵 Image
DHS sealed the border shut, resulting in 95% fewer encounters per day than during the Biden administration.

People forget that Trump 45 struggled with the border. But not Trump 47, which got it secured pretty early on. Image
Under Secretary Noem, DHS removed more than 675,000 illegals. Additionally, roughly 2.2 million illegals have self-deported.

The majority of these deportations occurred before BBB funding (~$170 billion) kicked in, so we can expect the rate to increase this year. Image
The Biden administration lost nearly half a million kids thanks to its reckless open borders policies. Tragically, many of these children are presumed to have fallen prey to exploitation and abuse.

The Trump administration has located 132,000 of them so far. Image
USCIS (a component of DHS) launched Operation Twin Shield, its largest enforcement operation to date, which is focused on fraud. It has investigated 1000 cases, visited 2000 sites, and completed 1500 interviews – many in the Twin Cities. Image
Following Trump's orders, Secretary Noem revitalized the Coast Guard in many ways, making our country considerably safer. Image

I just read the indictment, which provides more information on the SPLC's informants.

It's a truly fascinating – not to mention rare – glimpse behind the curtain.

🧵🧵🧵
Context: The SPLC spent more than $3 million in donor funds on informants from 2014-2023.

The crux of the DOJ's case is that the SPLC did so duplicitously in violation of the law. Image
The first example is an individual who was involved with the 2017 Unite the Right rally in Charlottesville, VA.

Between 2015 and 2023, the SPLC paid him more than $270,000.

I think this is a relative nobody given his unremarkable description. We'll see. Image

The anti-Trump, Jew-obsessed “right” is circulating a clip from 2023 (as the poster on the left shows) claiming that it’s Charlie Kirk’s last broadcast.

These people openly hated and attacked Charlie until yesterday. Now they’re using his murder to farm engagement—contemptible. Image
Image
In the clip, Charlie criticizes left-wing Jews for their support of left-wing policies (as he should). In all other contexts, these types wouldn’t accept this as sufficiently anti-Semitic because such criticism is supported by rw American Jews and probably most Israelis.
It’s true that in the last year or so Charlie grew increasingly critical of US-Israel stuff. But from what I saw, he did so carefully in a “tough love” manner. Why would Israel take him out and not a million other people actively working toward its downfall? It’s ridiculous.

Those confused as to why a leftist would choose to assassinate Charlie Kirk (vs someone more radical) reveal their own political ignorance. The left knows MAGA—not the delusional anti-MAGA rw fringe—is the primary/only threat to its hegemony. Material impact trumps edgelording.
People on here tend to focus on ideas, statements, positions, etc. The left, having a better understanding of both power and political reality, possesses a much deeper understanding of the material dimension of politics.
While many on the online right cry about Trump allegedly not doing enough, the left is watching with horror as the Trump administration unravels decades of race communism, rule by bureaucracy, mass immigration, etc. That’s why they assassinated Charlie Kirk and not RaceTemplar88.

In the 30s, American communists & sympathizers who visited the Soviet Union were so deluded that they were unaffected by the visible dysfunction.

Eugene Lyons, who lived in Russia at the time, wrote that Soviet tour guides quickly began wondering if all Americans were so stupid. Image
Image
Lyons on why communism appealed to disaffected liberals: “It was a more respectable outlet for their cynicism, their economic frustrations, their nihilistic angers.” Image
Bolshevism was far easier to romanticize from a distance Image

NEW: ICE to reverse order exempting farms, hotels, and restaurants from immigration raids after learning that the White House didn’t support it.

So much for Trump doing amnesty! Image
Stephen Miller vs Brooke Rollins—Miller won, thank God. Image
“While we will expand efforts in sanctuary cities, President Trump remains committed to enforcing federal immigration law — anyone present in the United States illegally is at risk of deportation.” Image
