ICE is offering $50K signing bonuses, $60K student loan forgiveness, and lifting age caps to recruit thousands of new officers under Trump’s $150B enforcement push. Will this deliver the workforce needed for record deportations?

D.C. has sued the Trump administration over its federal takeover of the city’s police, calling it a “brazen usurpation” of local authority. The fight could redefine presidential power in the capital. What do you think: should the courts revoke federal control of the D.C. police?

A 2–1 appeals court just said Trump can keep billions in foreign aid on hold - ruling only the GAO can sue under the Impoundment Control Act. How do you feel about this ruling allowing the administration to withhold Congressional approved funding?

Trump says he’ll know “in the first two minutes” if a deal with Putin is possible - and is ready to walk away. The high-stakes Alaska summit comes without any cease-fire in Ukraine or security guarantees in place.
