The Trump Regime attempting to deport eyewitnesses to the murder of Lorenzo Salgado Araujo, incl. Jose Trinidad, who says Lorenzo didn't ram an ICE vehicle or run over agents. LULAC's Juan Proaño on what is being done to protect Lorenzo’s family & the Latino community. youtu.be/wF3ulAZP0kU?...
Don't worry folks, Trump will implode and this will fall apart...
This would amount to a complete capitulation from the US. Literally no way to even attempt to spin this as a win.

😡 CBS is just state-sponsored media
A 60 Minutes probe into Epstein's banking, with Wyden already interviewed, vanished right after Sharyn Alfonsi got pushed out under Bari Weiss. Same editor who stalled the CECOT migrant story until Stephen Miller got a say. CBS keeps calling it timing. Sure looks like a pattern.
