The updated statement came after KIVI-TV sent FBI photo reportedly showing 14-year-old U.S. citizen in zip ties.

Carney: But this decades-long process of an ever-closer economic relationship with the United States is now over. And as a consequence, many of our former strengths as a country—more particularly, our economic strengths based on close ties to America—have now become our vulnerabilities…

🚨🚨🚨ICE agents have criminal backgrounds including domestic violence and battery. Many have not had any background checks or fingerprints taken. Well, this is 100% consistent with what we are seeing on the streets of America.

Almost above all I look forward to the trials and convictions for those in this administration responsible for murdering fishermen and others without evidence or due process.

Georgia Recorder @georgiarecorder.com · 5d

Georgia election officials credit an embattled voter accuracy organization (ERIC) with helping them identify over 180,000 voters who have moved out of state just this year. So why do some GOP lawmakers want to withdraw from it?

New from @mayahoman.bsky.social.

Will Georgia join a GOP-led state exodus from ERIC? • Georgia Recorder

A bill to withdraw Georgia from ERIC stalled in the 2025 legislative session. The debate over whether Georgia should remain a member remains alive.

Please refrain from bleaching your #pumpkins to extend their lifespan. Although this tip is trending on social media this season, it can be harmful to #wildlife.
Pumpkins serve as a #food source for many animals—deer, squirrels, raccoons, possums, mice, rats, chipmunks, birds, and even insects.

No other U.S. president has used the military as their own personal police force against the American people.

We implore the courts to reject Donald Trump's ongoing, illegal actions and definitively affirm states' sovereign right to handle public safety matters.
