    The arrests took place in six counties during what U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement officials described as a “five-day targeted enforcement operation” that began Monday and wrapped up around noon Friday.

    Of the 160 arrested, about 150 had criminal histories, while five more had either been previously deported or had “final orders of removal”. Many of those arrested had prior felony convictions for “serious or violent offenses” including child sex crimes and assault.


    [...]

    “The rash of these recent reports about ICE checkpoints and random sweeps, it’s all false and that’s definitely dangerous and irresponsible,” said ICE spokesperson David Marin.

    So much of the left leaning reporting has been wrong in the last year its scary. This is no longer a coincidence in my mind. There is intent.

    BREAKING: Trump's national security adviser Michael Flynn and Russian ambassador to Washington did not discuss lifting sanctions - Kremlin

    Guessing this source that will meet the approval of some fellow Braves Fans
    Pretty sure Hawk said Reuters was ok, still waiting to learn the leaning from some others


    Fact of matter Kremlin creates a pretty broad swath. Think maybe from here on out we will have Liberals or Left or Leftists v Kremlin when broad brushing sources or people

    Well, I imagine this is all fine unless as long as there's not a private email server involved.

    Seriously, I don't really care how often the President plays golf or goes on vacation. But running the country from his private club seems like a giant security mess, to say nothing of the ethical morass. Buy a membership to the club and you've essentially bought access to the president, with none of the disclosure required by campaign finance laws.

    Is this not a concern?

    Should the guy whose job it is to carry Trump’s nuclear codes be posing for pictures at Mar-a-Lago? https://www.facebook.com/richarddeag...40?pnref=story

    Let me try again. You asked if suddenly more had a negative opinion of Trump since election day. This aggregation of 30 polls from 11 orgs has it as +9 disapproval since Jan 20. Link.

    So, yeah. If only there were some way to know.

    I don't place tremendous stock in day-to-day approval ratings. On the other hand, those numbers will have an impact on his ability to govern, one way or another, positive or negative. In response to your assertion, though, even if there's ambiguity about what it means, it seems pretty clear that there is a post-inauguration trend.
