Trump's Housing and Development dept (Secretary Pictured) is launching an investigation into a housing program in Washington state that discriminates against Whites in favour of non-Whites. HUD calls this an illegal DEI activity.

'Arrests of migrants with no current criminal record surged 2,450%+ in Trump’s first year, driven by increases in tactics like β€œat-large” arrests and worksite raids ... Detention of immigrants is at its highest ever recorded level.'

U.S. Appeals court sides with Trump on mass detaining tens of thousands of arrested migrants indefinitely, denying them bond hearings and now summarily rejecting attempts at lawful appeals
A second Court of Appeals has sided with President Trump, ICE and the DOJ on mass detaining a massive volume of migrants, making ICE 2-0 in the circuit.

An Appeal To Pragmatism
DOJ has quietly gutted a 60-year old migrant assistance program called The Recognition and Accreditation program which allowed non-attorneys such as Catholic Charities representatives to assist immigrants
The program he is referring to has existed for 60 years, but he is upset Trump took 1 year to gut it.

This kind of ungrateful, unrealistic attitude is why it's taken us decades to get anywhere. People like this are not doing anything to help us fix it faster, they're just yelling at the driver while sitting in their carseat.

This is the mindset most people need to be operating on. We're in a long fight.

Forwarded from Donald J. Trump
We are asking for expedited Judicial Review because they are robbing our Country blind, β€œCenters” that don’t exist are being paid tremendous amounts of money, and yet we have Court Orders not letting us proceed. They are being protected by our unbelievably Corrupt and OUT OF CONTROL Court System! Billions of Dollars are being β€œhanded over” to CROOKS, and the Courts won’t let us do anything about it. Again, EXPEDITE! President DONALD J. TRUMP

Practically all forms of legal migration went down, before Trump's larger restrictions went into effect
Net migration declined by half after only 6 months of President Trump taking office. A significant portion of the recorded immigration during 2025 was under Biden's term (Because of Fiscal Years, which includes Oct-Jan), so the overall drop will be more pronounced for 2026, 2027 under Trump's restrictions.

In New York City the influx of new immigrants went down by 70% between Summer 2024 and Summer 2024.

This is only a census estimate, however the general trend of all available data shows net immigration, legal too, is in decline even without factoring in ICE, travel bans or stricter vetting.

For programs the Trump Admin cannot immediately end, USCIS and DHS have been shown to use regulations as restrictions to cut away at legal status
USCIS head Joe Edlow has been stalling legal immigration processing, causing an uncomfortable situation that leads many migrants to give up and go home, or stop trying to apply at all, or wait indefinitely. Excellent work by USCIS.

The results of government policy tend to show best at a county and state level. Areas that pass immigration enforcement laws will experience better deportation progress, but they need people willing to speak and vote for that to happen. All the talk about the White House needing to do more must be backed up by people at a lower level doing more too, whether through GOP politics, independent lobbying or local law enforcement.

Tom Homan: 'If you think the numbers were good last year, wait 'til this year. I see a lot of language out there saying President Trump is backing off of mass deportations. He is not. (Our numbers are better than the Eisenhower numbers)

We have sanctuary cities and Congress in the way, but we are suing the hell out of those. We will get the numbers we need.'

It's very sad to see someone who was an icon of sorts in right-wing memes end up an impotent, underinformed or dishonest version of a liberal with 'White' interests on the side.

If you dislike Trump so much that you'll lie about reality itself and side with the people who hate you, you've probably lived past your purpose.

Net immigration into America is down across the board, including H-1Bs and student visas. Meanwhile, migrant detention and departure are being pushed past historic highs and can climb farther with better state cooperation.

You don't need to be a sycophant to acknowledge sincere progress, but if you choose to lie you're practically worthless.

This is the first White House in 60 to 90 years that remotely celebrates reversing and reducing immigration at all.

A reminder that denaturalization is historically very rare; only 305 cases filed between 1990 and 2017. Trump's first term beat that with 170 cases filed throughout 2017 to 2020.

This current term the DOJ is pursuing dozens to hundreds of denaturalization cases a month if possible, an extreme escalation. That will take serious legal work in the background of the news. Over two dozen denaturalization filings were announced on the DOJ news list so far.

New executive order requires federal contracts to be made with a prohibition on diversity, equity and inclusion (DEI) practices and any activity that may discriminate such as a preference for non-White causes or clients.

Likewise the Attorney General is directed to give priority to charging DEI violations and the Federal Acquisition Regulatory Council must end provisions that oppose this.
