When asked if immigration is generally a good thing or bad thing for the country, a record-high 79% of U.S. adults call it a good thing; a record-low 17% see it as a bad thing.
This is consistent with the long-term pattern of more Americans viewing immigration as helpful than harmful to the country. But today’s endorsement is up from 64% last year and represents a reversal of the downward trend seen in this view from 2021 to 2024.
Judge orders ICE agents to wear badges, stop using tear gas on journalists
By CHRISTINE FERNANDO
As a federal judge heard arguments over National Guard deployment in Chicago, another one ruled Thursday requiring federal agents in the area to wear badges and banning them from using certain riot control weapons such as tear gas against peaceful protesters and journalists.
At a Wednesday hearing, Judge Sara Ellis said the preliminary injunction, which applies to northern Illinois, is “essentially directing them to follow their own rules, policies and regulations.”

For which she has solid evidence never occurred, but then Trump has no expectations that this will ever go to trial. This is indictment is only intended destroy James' reputation, to cause her to spend a large amount of money to defend herself and to distract the media and the people from more dangerous issues, such as the Epstein case, the Tom Homan's $50,000 bribery case, and what I suspect will be the eventual failure of Trump's Gaza proposal.
Note that you could say the same things for the James Comey case.

A Federal Judge Shows How the Courts Should Deal With Trump’s Lies
District Court Judge Karin Immergut’s opinion shows that courage in judging doesn’t require rhetoric or defiance—only the quiet insistence that facts still matter.
Immergut, a Trump appointee, faced the recurring judicial dilemma of the Trump era: how to deal with a president who lies about the conditions that he claims justify granting him extraordinary power. Trump has been prodigal in invoking “emergencies”—at the border, in cities, even in cyberspace—but nearly all have rested on transparent falsehoods. There has never been an “invasion” of marauding immigrants, or a fentanyl “siege,” or a crime wave in Washington sufficient to justify federal deployment. Each supposed emergency has been a pretext for asserting powers Congress never gave him. The pattern is as consistent as it is brazen: declare a crisis, invent the facts to match, and dare the courts to stop him.
....
Immergut inherited that fuzzy command and met it with clarity, modesty, and backbone. Her opinion is a model of calm judicial courage.
First, she dismantled the factual predicate. The record, she wrote, showed that protests at the Portland ICE facility were “not significantly violent or disruptive.” They were small, scattered, and far from the “rebellion” Trump described. Oregon’s Tenth Amendment and statutory claims succeeded because, on any fair reading, Trump’s actions had no legal or factual foundation.
