15.10.2025 20:08 — 👍 5054 🔁 2986 💬 551 📌 528Everett 13-year-old arrested by ICE and sent to Virginia detention facility By Marcela Rodrigues Globe Staff,Updated October 12, 2025, 44 minutes ago 31 A 13-year-old boy was arrested by ICE in Everett and sent to a juvenile detention facility in Virginia. A 13-year-old boy was arrested by ICE in Everett and sent to a juvenile detention facility in Virginia. A 13-year-old boy was arrested by Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents in Everett after an interaction with members of the Everett Police Department and sent to a juvenile detention facility in Virginia, according to his mother and immigration lawyer Andrew Lattarulo. The boy’s mother, Josiele Berto, was called to pick her son up from the Everett Police Department on Thursday, the day he was arrested. After waiting for about an hour and a half, she was told her son was taken by ICE, Berto told the Globe in a phone interview. “My world collapsed,” Berto said in Portuguese. From the police department, the boy was taken to ICE’s holding facility in Burlington on Thursday evening, where he spent a night before being transferred by car to the Northwestern Regional Juvenile Detention Center in Winchester, Va., on Friday morning, his mother said. The juvenile facility is more than 500 miles away from Everett. The boy is a 7th-grader at Albert N. Parlin School in Everett, his mother said. The teen and his family, who are Brazilian nationals, have a pending asylum case and are authorized to work legally in the United States, Lattarulo said.
ICE kidnapped a 7th-grader with a pending asylum claim and spirited him out of state without notifying his parents, seemingly with the cooperation of the local police in Everett, MA.

Des Moines public school issues statements yesterday (scroll down) saying that Ian Roberts had an FBI background check in 2023 and it raised no red flags and Roberts said he was a US Citizen.
To summarize: ICE said Roberts entered the US in 1999. He was running track for Copin Sate though in 1997

Of note: they tell you how much it costs for the government to run the free filing system, but they don’t tell you how much it would cost to have a private corporation do it. (Hint: it would cost taxpayers more to have a private corporation do it.)

One of Trump's many dipshits left behind sensitive documents about the Anchorage summit on a hotel copy machine -- including: names and numbers of U.S. and Russian state leaders, schedule and room locations.
Yet another major national security breach.

The IRS's free Direct File tool is now "gone," according to Trump's IRS chief.
This comes after tax prep companies like Intuit, the maker of TurboTax, lobbied the for years to block it.
Intuit donated $1M to Trump’s inauguration.
