Trump surrendered here.

He's the one who gave in.

But I think it also shows you it's an admission that he could have been paying TSA all along.

And so I think one of the great things about us having reporters on the ground now in D.C., the way that they could actually ask these questions is we found out earlier today that

Donald Trump has the authority, the Department of Homeland Security has the authority to pay TSA, and that all of these lies that they needed to pass anything right now were all bullshit.

And so we, our reporters, go in and actually ask the lawmakers that question, including Republican lawmakers.

We heard that TSA could actually be paid right now

if Donald Trump wants them to be paid.

And so, for example, here is our Pablo Manriquez, our Washington correspondent who works for Migrant Insider.

Here is Pablo Manriquez asking Tom Tillis, Republican senator, about this very issue.

I think there is enough latitude to make the argument that they could and that may be a device we use if we can't reach an agreement.

And they couldn't reach an agreement because Trump would not let them, but that ended up being the device that they were able to use.

And it was due to relentless questioning of these lawmakers that they finally had to fold and say, oh, I guess, you know, once you admit that, you admit that you manufactured the whole crisis.

And once Trump makes his post that says, I've decided to pay him,

It shows again, you've manufactured this entire crisis.

And the fact that he's manufacturing crises here at home domestically, while he has manufactured these crises that are now very real and growing abroad, shows that this guy is just all about crisis.

He's all about destruction and pulling everybody into his web of just insanity.

Because the markets today had their worst day since the war began.

And so after that happened, he's like, I gotta do something right now.

So much of what's happening, and it's sick because this is a war with lives on the line, but it feels like most of Donald Trump's decisions right now are being made
