To dodge federal rule, immigrants moved from Florida jails — and sometimes moved right back Four Guatemalan siblings, detained as undocumented immigrants after a traffic stop, spent several days last week at the Orange County Jail before being picked up in a van and driven around for hour…

“Prisoners suspected of being in this country illegally have been picked up at the Orange County Jail, driven around for hours — then returned to the jail with a new inmate number and a re-set on the time they can be held in local custody.”

Faculty Support of George Mason’s President Draws Federal Investigation

Faculty who wrote to defend their president and object to a DOJ investigation of their university...are now being investigated by the DOJ.
The most banal defense of free speech and academic freedom will trigger the full wrath of the US government now.

He cheats on taxes.
He cheats on asset valuation.
He even tries cheating inflation.
He's cheated on all his wives.
He cheats at golf.
He cheats on America... and the Earth.
He's a cheater.
But he can't cheat mortality and when that beautiful day comes, we won't be cheated out of a huge celebration.

Week 1: Are you still talking about Epstein?

Week 2: I know it’s a hoax. It’s started by Democrats.

Week 3: They should focus on… Larry Summers and Bill Clinton

‘Praying for it to end’: Vermont superintendent speaks out after ICE interrogation
YouTube video by MSNBC ‘Praying for it to end’: Vermont superintendent speaks out after ICE interrogation

“I told them I was an American citizen. I questioned why they were using those tactics on me. I asked about my constitutional rights. An officer outright said out loud that I have no constitutional rights at a point of entry,” says Wilmer Chavarria, a school superintendent in Vermont.

Yesterday, Maurene Comey, who prosecuted the Epstein case, was summarily fired from SDNY. Her letter to colleagues pulls no punches. "Fear is the tool of a tyrant, wielded to suppress independent thought."

Damn‼️ Federal agents blew a door off for this?

Federal agents blasted their way into an LA home where Jenny Ramirez lives with her boyfriend and two kids.

She heard the blast while checking on her 6-year-old, with her 1-year-old in her arms.

Ramirez says everyone in the home is a U.S. citizen.

That one person can drag us into a war without consulting or even notifying Congress, or our allies, or fully explaining to the American people why this is necessary, is absolutely bonkers.

Reminder that Congress has the power to stop all of this. Where the hell are they? Hello?

9 Urgent Questions About Trump Mobile and the Gold T1 Smartphone We don’t know much about the new Trump Mobile phone or the company’s data plan, but we sure do have a lot of questions.

On Monday morning, the Trump Organization announced that it would offer a new wireless service, Trump Mobile, and a golden, $499 smartphone to go with it. None of it makes much sense, and the more you read about it, the more confused you might get.
