Afghan CIA fighters, like National Guard attack suspect, face stark reality in U.S.
The fighters led by the CIA found themselves spiraling into despair because of what they saw as bureaucratic neglect and abandonment by the U.S. government. Among their ranks was Rahmanullah Lakanwal, the man charged with killing one National Guard soldier and seriously injuring a second after opening fire on them in Washington, D.C. on Thanksgiving Eve.

My mom was taking about an old acquaintance who is living nearby, renting a room in a house in exchange for light housekeeping.

After pressure from the Justice Department, Apple pulled apps from its App Store that encourage reporting ICE activity. Google followed suit by pulling similar apps from its Play Store.
The government shouldn't be choosing what apps we can download, and neither should tech companies.

Heads up - it's been pretty much confirmed that ICE will be making a ruckus in Raleigh, at least, through December. I think we can assume those asshats will be here in Durham too.
