Newport, Ore — The Department of Homeland Security has put plans to build a temporary detention facility at the Oregon coastal town of Newport's municipal airport on hold till May, an Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) official confirmed in a court filing.

“Evidence is clear that ICE wants to turn Newport into the epicenter of their Oregon detention and deportation efforts. But when asked a straight question, DHS refuses to give us a straight answer. They tried to sneak into Lincoln County and we pushed back. This newest declaration makes clear that rather than sneak away, they want to keep their options open. But if they think they can quietly setup shop here, they are in for a very rude awakening.”

Miller is an apparent problem for Vance, because Miller gets to run things and Vance doesn’t. 2/

But when Trump is gone, and everything is a mess, Vance can blame Miller for the “distortions” of the true MAGA doctrine. 3/

From this it follows that Vance wants Miller out, but maybe not quite yet, because he needs MAGA to remember Miller if Miller is going to be the fall guy. 4/

This is a problem Vance has: he talks to MAGA about things they don’t remember or didn’t notice when they happened. 5/

Meanwhile Rubio looks relatively good. Our foreign policy is disastrous, but not in a way that MAGA notices, even if the rest of the world does. 6/

The main humiliation is obviously Greenland, where we alienated our allies and encouraged our enemies in order to get nothing that we hadn’t already had for 75 years. 7/

But the Greenland portfolio has been Vance’s, not Rubio’s; Vance generally gets assignments where his weaknesses are exposed, but he doesn’t seem to grasp this. 8/

The horror of our politics is that state murder of responsible citizens is connected, by the perpetrators themselves, to internal factions and rivalries. 9/

It’s as though they get up in the morning and try their best to be fascists but at the end of the day they kill, lie, and plot for personal power like the late-Brezhnev politburo. 10/
