These are Crimes Against Humanity. Moreover, this is also wanton sadism. And sadism never exists in isolation – it's always accompanied by sociopathy-psychopathy (ASPD). The Republican party is institutionalizing-normalizing Antisocial Personality Disorder.

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.

Trump has rolled out yet another baseless conspiracy theory in his relentless campaign to lie and spread misinformation to the public. His latest claim, that the FBI orchestrated the January 6th attack on the U.S. Capitol and that Biden ordered it, collapses under even the most basic scrutiny.

I noticed an unusually high level of "swarminess" in JD's appearance on Meet the Press this morning❗

I mean he's always an arrogant douche, but this morning he couldn't contain it.

Trump was president on January 6th, 2020. So, is he now in late-stage dementia – or does he think his followers are exactly this stupid?

As a suburbanite living a bit north of Seattle, I concur! Stay away from Seattle and the good people who live here. We don’t want you. We don’t need you. We don’t like you because you’re monsters.

It's the everyday heroes like Gregg who make this country great, not the bilious billionaire bigots who preen for the cameras while they rob you blind behind your back.

Wake up, wise up, and rise up!

Senator Patty Murray @murray.senate.gov · Feb 23

Gregg is a former Marine and Forest Service ranger. He's saved the lives of hikers dangling off a cliff or going through cardiac arrest, and he's bravely fought forest fires to save small rural towns.

100% of his salary is paid by WA state.

Elon fired him. Share his story.
