AI Summary

short article 1 min

Donald Trump is facing increasing cultural opposition to his immigration policies from prominent figures in business, entertainment, and sports. Bruce Springsteen released a song criticizing the administration, while OpenAI CEO Sam Altman expressed concerns about ICE's actions. Martha Stewart voiced concerns about personal safety in the current climate. These reactions, along with others, signal a broader cultural revolt against Trump's immigration crackdown. This backlash could potentially weaken the Republican Party's hold on power and Trump's political standing before the midterm elections. In response, Trump sent Tom Homan to Minnesota to replace a controversial Border Patrol commander.
