Metry and her husband of 4 years go to DHS to get their I-130 in motion. "Good news" a DHS employee told them, the form to start her naturalization was approved.

DHS employee asks the husband to follow him through a secure door. When it locks behind him, ICE detains his wife to deport her.
EXCLUSIVE: Terez Metry was 13 when her family fled to Tennessee from Egypt in 2011. Then, they left her behind. She only recently discovered she had an order of removal from 2011. But she was following the legal path to citizenship. On Monday, at a routine DHS meeting, Metry was detained.

Again, you would do well to block all of these Alt [Federal Agency] accounts. Theyre basically all a really toxic combo of doomerism, misinformation, and clickbait
I missed this one in the chaos this weekend, but AltNPS appears to have taken this image directly from Brian Krassenstein on X. It's the same picture, just cropped.

Krassenstein, who also sucks, posted this pic at 8:55 AM on Jan. 25, six and half hours before AltNPS.

Not to be a Debbie Downer but I don’t think Pastor Riggs is an Evangelical. He’s to the left of a lot of people in Franklin. He’s a good guy.
FRANKLIN, TN pastor Kevin Riggs changes his profile pic to “ABOLISH ICE” and challenges other Evanglical pastors to do the same.

The NYT profile was confirmation that she thinks she’s the modern day Marilyn Monroe.
“I needed to be alone because I needed to think about the shooting in Butler, Pennsylvania, to figure out how I thought about it, and I needed to think about that in the context in which I felt most myself and most American, which is alone in a car winding through our highways.”

NEW: In May, a Texas police department said they used the powerful Flock surveillance network against a woman who had an abortion "for her safety"

Newly obtained court records show it was a 'death investigation,' and they considered charging her with a crime

People in the comments saying the play is that if there are no vaccines then chemo makes money and nope! The reason someone you know will die of an vaccine preventable disease is some academics with twitter followings felt they didn't get enough NIH respect in 2020 and came down w/ poster's madness.

When everything is on fire, it’s hard for stories like this to break through. But these kind—of Kennedy circumnavigating even Trump’s effort to moderate his extremism, that name and explain the motivations behind the bureaucrats enacting Kennedy’s anti-vaccine policies—are I think, so important.
Trump pulled Rep. Dave Weldon's nomination to lead CDC in March: He was too anti-vaxx. But RFK Jr. just hired Weldon’s longtime deputy instead.

RFK Jr. is completely reshaping vaccine policy. This is the man helping him do it.
