The Trump White House official app is fraught with trackers.
The White House app covertly collects excessive user data and shares it with third-party trackers while sidestepping federal security rules.
For example, the app includes scripts to monitor a user's location several times per minute.

I think one of the core differences between Republicans and Democrats is:
Republicans think that 99% of people are doing something fraudulent with Medicare, Medicaid, and SNAP.
Democrats think that maybe 1% of people at most are doing something fraudulent, and that this is an acceptable cost.

This is APPALLING. The Trump administration is detaining multiple random Somali immigrants with no criminal record at Guantanamo Bay, seemingly because the White House ordered ICE specifically to detain Somalis at Gitmo as part of its effort to punish an ethnic group Trump has attacked.
