Anyone currently involved in federal immigration enforcement, every officer, every bureaucrat, every lawyer, every judge, is a member of the most evil group of people this country has seen since Reconstruction. Darkness personified, every one. Doing this to children is beyond depraved.

On Nov. 16, a mental health counselor recorded in Kamillaโs medical records that her mother reported the girl had lost her appetite after being โserved food that contained worms.โ
A week later, the couple said, children were told to gather in the gym for what they believed would be a Thanksgiving celebration. Excitement spread as families saw tables set with turkey, sandwiches, pastries and pies, they said. The children waited expectantly. But when a parent asked when the celebration would begin, Oksana said, staff told them the holiday meal was for employees, not detainees.
The children, she said, watched despondently as the feast was packed away.
On Thanksgiving, the immigrant children held at the Dilley detention center gathered in the gym for what they thought was a holiday feast.
The kids salivated over a spread of turkey, sandwiches, pastries and pies, a family told me.
But the food wasnโt for detainees โ it was for the staff.

A storefront in Hollywood glows during the golden hour. Some palm trees line the street itโs on. Circa 2005 maybe?
They used this building on Beverly and Gardner as the Peach Pit in the newer version of 90210. I drove or walked by it every day so would see them filming. One day while driving by, they werenโt actively filming and I saw Tristan Wilds. I leaned out the window and yelled โyo Omarโs coming.โ He liked that so he smiled and waved.
I donโt usually take pictures within the city, but the last one seemed to be liked so here goes. Iโll be back to mountains, rivers and oceans soon enough I suppose.

Among the cases are that of a man described by law enforcement as having ties to a known drug trafficking organization. Investigators in a criminal complaint said they identified him as a suspect after intercepting a package addressed to his apartment that contained 9.1 pounds of cocaine in September 2025.
An assistant U.S. Attorney asked to toss the case in a brief motion filed Jan. 23, saying in a one-sentence memo that a dismissal is โin the interests of justice,โ pursuant to federal law.
The U.S. Attorneyโs Office also asked to dismiss the case against another man whom federal agents accused of having a kilogram of meth and more than 200 grams of fentanyl in his Minneapolis apartment. The U.S. Attorneyโs Office cited the same reasoning in its request.
Pam Bondi is now freeing accused drug dealers bc her demand that AUSAs do unethical things got all the prosecutors to quit.
