It seems like shutdowns have become another piece of performative art with enough of the government working to mitigate consequences .

I'm in favor of people getting more insurance not less but paying insurance companies isn't my preferred way. Also as happens often and with this one, popular programs are enacted then phased out in a short time period leaving people stranded. You can't take benefits away from people once they work

Photoshop or real? If real, vandalism or purposeful?

I mean, it's definitely not a photoshop. As to the purpose, who knows?

You could have made "no comment" either but you decided to take a picture that any sane person knows isn't what you're trying to make it out to be

Agree to disagree meaning you actually think he was giving a Nazi salute? You are delusional.

How Trump is Building a Violent, Shadowy Federal Police Force ProPublica https://www.propublica.org/article/trump-dhs-ice-secret-police-civil-rights-unaccountable

" Current and former national security officials share the mayor's concerns. They describe the legions of masked immigration officers operating in near-total anonymity on the orders of the president as the crossing of a line that had long set the United States apart from the world's most repressive regimes. ICE, in their view, has become an unfettered and unaccountable national police force. The transformation, the officials say, unfolded rapidly and in plain sight. Trump's DHS appointees swiftly dismantled civil rights guardrails, encouraged agents to wear masks, threatened groups and state governments that stood in their way, and then made so many arrests that the influx overwhelmed lawyers trying to defend immigrants taken out of state or out of the country.

Meanwhile, ICE is enjoying a windfall in resources. On top of its annual operating budget of $10 billion a year, the so-called One Big Beautiful Bill included an added $7.5 billion a year for the next four years for recruiting and retention alone. As part of its hiring blitz, the agency has dropped age, training and education standards and has offered recruits signing bonuses as high as $50,000."
