Terrific investigation into Greg Bovino's roots. Lots of interesting details, including:

"Here’s how the Bovinos managed to get around the new quotas that limited how many Italians and others deemed to be “undesirables” could end up in the United States."

Greg Bovino’s the star of Trump’s deportation show. We trace his roots.
As a boy, the Hollywood movie “The Border" set the course for his life. He couldn’t believe the Border Patrol agents in the movie were the bad guys. Now that he’s in charge of deportation efforts caus...

Everyday, Dementia Don lies that prices in the US have come substantially down due to his unparalleled leadership. This is directed solely at his cult, which believes every word he says (however ludicrous), not at the average American, who knows better.
Also, he's a felon, a rapist & a pedophile.

Good afternoon from Chicago's federal courthouse. A detention hearing in the criminal case of Luis Uribe - a Customs & Border Protection agent facing 11 charges related to allegations he robbed and sexually abused (or attempted to sexually abuse) 4 women in 2022 - is now getting underway.

Anyone who is surprised at the pure, crystalline malevolence of Trump's statement regarding the brutal murder of a good man has been living in a cave, or on the dark side of the moon, for the last 40 years. That is who he is, a dark, vicious, malevolent monster.

Rob Reiner either made your favorite movie, or made somebody you know’s favorite movie. If you’re a Californian, he’s also part of the reason you or your friends can get married. He has changed more lives for the better than this asshole commenting on him ever did.

Honey, it seems our leaders are playing Monopoly with our lives, and we're all stuck paying rent on Boardwalk with Baltic Avenue cash. If logic was currency, they'd be bankrupt. Let's just hope they don't try to solve poverty with Monopoly money! 🎲💁‍♀️💰

We’re closing in on two decades of Republicans telling you, in no uncertain terms, that they do not care about kids being shot dead. In schools, in movie theaters, at church, in the street. They. Do. Not. Care. But hey, at least they’re good at racism and destroying the economy, amirite.

"ICE and CBP must be abolished" is the only reasonable position. We can debate the specifics of new agencies for immigration functions, but these agencies are simply too infected with a culture of impunity, racism, and fascism to continue. They're gangs with badges.
Armed ICE agents trapped US citizens in a restaurant and demanded their papers. Federal agents walked into East African restaurants in Cedar-Riverside, MN. They closed and blocked the doors. Then they demanded to see everyone’s papers. Every person present was a US citizen.

If someone's taken to a hospital after being shot in the ear, and upon arrival asks their aides "how it played out on TV" at the same time a report was never released from that hospital and the ear had no marks 19 days later, wouldn't it be safe to say there's a good chance that incident was staged?
