President Trump defended the deportation of Kilmar Abrego Garcia, an alleged MS-13 gang member, during an ABC interview, citing a photo he shared showing the gang's name tattooed on Garcia's knuckles. However, other recent photos do not show the tattoo, raising questions about its existence.

Breitbart: TRUMP EFFECT: First 100 Days Yields Mass Deportations, Record-Low Border Crossings
In the first 100 days of President Donald Trump’s second administration, illegal border crossings dropped significantly, attributed to a comprehensive approach to immigration enforcement. Key actions included deploying troops to the U.S.-Mexico border, mass deportation initiatives, and the designation of Mexican cartels as Foreign Terrorist Organizations.
The administration reported a historic decline in migrant apprehensions, with numbers falling by as much as 96% compared to the previous year. Enhanced enforcement operations and the implementation of a "Catch and Return" policy contributed to this decrease, while federal agencies collaborated to carry out targeted immigration raids across various states.

The Federalist: Trump Delivered On His Most Important Campaign Promise

The administration reported a 99.99% decrease in illegal alien releases compared to the previous year, with a notable drop in border crossings.
Trump's border policies are framed as essential for preserving American culture and identity, arguing that mass migration threatens national cohesion.

Trump's tariffs on China, now at 145%, are expected to increase costs for law enforcement agencies, particularly those relying on technology from companies like Axon Enterprise and Cellebrite. These companies warn that rising prices could impact their competitiveness and profitability.
As costs for surveillance tools and equipment rise, police departments nationwide may face budget constraints, complicating their operations. Local and federal governments will likely bear the financial burden of these tariffs, affecting their ability to procure necessary law enforcement technologies.

The Telegraph: Trump has made the world far more dangerous
Despite President Trump's claims of a successful administration, recent military actions against Iranian-backed Houthi rebels in Yemen highlight ongoing security challenges. The Houthis continue to threaten international shipping, undermining Trump's narrative of effective conflict resolution.
Additionally, Trump's foreign policy efforts, including addressing the Ukraine conflict and Iran's nuclear ambitions, have not yielded the promised results. The global security landscape appears more precarious now than at the start of his second term, contradicting his assertions of progress.

The Imaginative Conservative: Making Up the Alleluias
During Lent, the omission of the word "Alleluia" in prayers highlights a spiritual principle: sacrifices made for God are ultimately returned, blessed and increased. This practice teaches that God is greater than His gifts, emphasizing that loss can lead to deeper fulfillment.
Fasting and renunciation can lead to unexpected richness and freedom, reflecting the belief that God provides abundantly to those who trust Him. The cycle of giving up and receiving back reinforces the understanding that true fulfillment comes from God alone.
