Distractions over implementing President Donald Trump's immigration policy are causing issues for vital services, a former Secret Service agent has claimed.

Trump's administration has prioritized mass deportations, workplace raids, and expanded detention operations targeting undocumented immigrants across the nation. The Trump administration has deported thousands of people to about a dozen countries, often to places where they have no ties.

Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) operations have intensified significantly, with agents conducting sweeps in schools, workplaces, and residential areas. ICE's budget has grown from less than $6 billion annually a decade ago to $85 billion in a single year under Trump, surpassing the combined budgets of all other federal law enforcement agencies. ...

Republican Party candidates are hesitant to align themselves with Donald Trump and his cabinet in the run-up to the midterm elections, an analyst has claimed.

Trump had previously put the Republican Party under pressure with a push to introduce the Safeguard American Voter Eligibility (SAVE) Act.

The Supreme Court's infighting has spilled out into public view, and it paints an ugly picture of the judicial body, according to a political analyst.

The New York Times opinion columnist Jesse Wegman believes recent activity from Justices Sonia Sotomayor, Brett Kavanaugh, and Clarence Thomas highlights the trouble brewing inside the Supreme Court. Wegman wrote, "We’ve come to expect diatribes against entire swaths of the country from the Trump administration, but to hear a Supreme Court justice do it is somehow more chilling.

"All Supreme Court justices are at risk of huffing their own fumes. It comes along with the lifetime appointment, the endless cosseting and flattery. It’s easy for them to forget that they play a unique role in American life, and are held to a higher standard of behavior than the rest of us....
