The Day Ahead

President Donald J. Trump hosts a Salute to the Heroes of ICE and CBP, recognizing the dangerous, important work of America’s border officers. Watch live at 3 p.m. ET.

The life-saving missions of ICE

From saving victims from human smugglers, drug cartels, and criminal gangs to protecting American citizens from crime spilling across our border, President Trump understands the dangerous conditions our border officers face each day. To show his appreciation for their service, the President will highlight the life-saving missions of these heroes today in an event at the White House. 
Even with widespread public support for ICE (U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement), many Democrats have embraced the previously fringe position that the agency should be abolished. A recent POLITICO/Morning Consult poll revealed that even with the left’s recent push, only a quarter of Americans want ICE eliminated.
The heroes who protect our borders are a vital piece of our national security. Getting rid of ICE would be devastating to the safety of American families, particularly those living in communities across the Southwestern United States. Our border officers are the first line of defense for these vulnerable Americans: During the 2017 fiscal year, ICE arrested more than 127,000 aliens with criminal convictions or charges.
President Trump promised that he would secure our borders and keep our communities safe. Today, he is honoring the public servants who risk it all to help achieve that.

The far left turns desperate on Judge Kavanaugh

As Judge Brett Kavanaugh continues to draw rave reviews from the legal community and those who know him best, a few liberal Democrats are grasping at straws in their attempt to discredit his nomination.   
In National Review, David French highlights one particularly desperate—and shoddy—attempt, assisted by The New York Times. “There is no indication at all that the Times reached out to one of the key players in this whole drama,” French explains. “The Times got comment from [Democratic Senators] Chuck Schumer and Dianne Feinstein, but not from a key witness.”
“So I picked up the phone and called him,” French writes. “Once again, the Left has taken a swing at one of the most qualified SCOTUS nominees in history. Once again, it has missed.”
