Night of the Long Tweets

Not expecting the "Knives" but Bolton and Romney are decidedly the first victims of the impending TTP (Traitor Trump Party) purge.

The GOP is dead. That party no longer exists. It was tortured for years and today the final, fatal dagger plunge to the heart. All that's left is a party loyal to one person: #TraitorTrump

DHS suspends Global Entry, Trusted Traveler Programs for New York residents in response to sanctuary law
https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/us/dhs-suspends-global-entry-trusted-traveler-programs-for-new-york-residents-in-response-to-sanctuary-law/ar-BBZHvqU

Acting Homeland Security Secretary Chad Wolf exclusively told Fox News' "Tucker Carlson Tonight" Wednesday that DHS was immediately suspending Global Entry and several other Trusted Traveler Programs (TTP) for all New York state residents -- a dramatic move in response to the liberal state's recently enacted sanctuary "Green Light Law."

The sweeping order came a day after President Trump, in his State of the Union address, condemned left-wing states and local governments that "release dangerous criminal aliens to prey upon the public," and called on Congress to pass a law establishing civil liability for sanctuary cities.

In a letter to top New York state officials obtained exclusively by Fox News, Wolf noted that the New York law prohibited state DMVs from sharing criminal records with Customs and Border Protection (CBP) and Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE).

...

As a result, New York residents "will no longer be eligible to enroll or re-enroll" in select TTPs -- including Global Entry, NEXUS, SENTRI, and FAST. Wolf noted that TTP "permits expedited processing into the U.S. from international destinations (under Global Entry); Canada only (under NEXUS); and Canada and Mexico only (under SENTRI)." Additionally, TTP allows quicker processing for commercial truck drivers entering or leaving the U.S. (under FAST).
