Paramount Pictures and Fathom Entertainment are bringing "Pretty in Pink" back to the big screen in celebration of its 40th anniversary.
I donβt know if this movie is appropriate for Valentineβs Day considering in that it is the story of a guy in love with a girl who kisses another guy in the parking lot after the prom.

With Congress gone, much of DHS is set to run out of' money after midnight Democrats nave refused to fund the department without new restrictions on federal imm gration agents, including requiring them to wear body cameras and tighter rules on warrants.
Today at 14:24 MT
Note the framing here:
Itβs βDemocrats have refused to fundβ DHS and not βRepublicans refused to prohibit face masksβ or βthe two parties could not agree on how to reform the agency.β

Requiring the govβt to do the right thing may look like a small thing in the context of one case, but itβs important to understand just how big it is. Judge Boasberg rules in the case where the Trump administration sent men to CECOT prison. joycevance.substack.com/p/judge-boas...

The people who are telling you they are withdrawing ICE from Minnesota are the same people who told you a year ago they would release the Epstein Files in full.
They are not to be trusted. They are allergic to truth and incapable of decency.
