Fidel(the father in this story about immigration) self-deported not a moment too soon as ICE is stepping up its efforts to deport people in Raleigh, where this story takes place.

"don't worry, he's just into 15-year-olds" perhaps not as exculpatory as you think

Megyn Kelly: "I know somebody very close to this case…Jeffrey Epstein, in this person's view, was not a pedophile…He was into the barely legal type, like he liked 15 year old girls…He wasn't into like 8 year olds…There's a difference between a 15 year old and a 5 year old."

The USDA sent an email to grocery stores telling them they are prohibited from offering special discounts to customers affected by the SNAP funding lapse.
I'm aware of at least 2 stores that had offered struggling customers a discount, then withdrew it after receiving this email
