You can just share my video from me instead of sharing a screen recording of my video from a content farm account that isn’t on the scene btw.

ICE is evil. If you work for ICE, you are evil. If you support ICE, you are evil.

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.

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.

That was not the obituary of a 79 year old in rapidly declining health that I wished to read.

Of all of its titles, "Tongue of the Fatman" was my favorite. Could have been an episode of "Jake and the Fatman".

Trump's fascist thugs keep assaulting Chicago's journalists, hoping to cover up the regime's violence and cruelty.

Latinos in Chicago are our neighbors. They make our community better. They're not a problem at all.
Texas National Guard troops are not our neighbors. They make our community worse. They're our main problem right now.

It's been that kind of day, hasn't it, Kira?

#caturday

A long-haired tortoiseshell cat lounges belly-up on a blue quilted blanket, nestled between a gray cushion and a blue couch arm. Her thick fur fans out in a wild halo of black, brown, and caramel tones, with her fluffy tail curled dramatically along the cushion. One paw is lifted slightly as if mid-stretch, and her bright eyes peek out lazily from the cascade of fur — the very picture of feline comfort and quiet mischief.

This is a picture from the Chicago Sun-Times this afternoon. ICE shot another Chicagoan today. Trump is activating our state national guard against us. Living under military occupation is not fun.

It's time to rewatch Star Trek: Deep Space Nine. The story of a people who survive a brutal occupation strikes much closer to home now.

It would really be helpful for the MSM to get the hell out of the beltway and report on the military occupation of Chicago.

One of the effects of the ICE occupation in Chicago. Parks in my neighborhood are practically empty on nice days. They used to be filled with soccer games, flag football games, and the paths were crowded with bikes, families with baby strollers, and those out for a walk. #Chicago #ICE

A sunny park scene with green grass, large trees casting shadows, and a clear blue sky. In the background, there are athletic fields, a walking path, and a few people walking. The area is open and inviting, surrounded by scattered trees and bordered by a fence in the distance.
