For almost 70 years I was extremely proud to be an American and what she stood for. I never thought any president was great - all had flaws and did things I did not agree with - which is what made us great. Hate to see it end! A quick death to democracy!

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.

OK - $64 billion dollar question - this is both in exchange for the new 'toy' plane for our president - AND - support of the move to an authoritarian governemnt that Qatar (and the Heritage Foundation) will help achieve? Thoughts?

An ICE agent shot and killed a man in his car who had just dropped off his 3-year-old son at day care in Chicago. The agency said the man had resisted arrest and dragged an agent with his car. Video obtained by The Washington Post shows the man driving away from the officers

There was no characterization. That’s what he said.

But this is Speaker Johnson. Too scared to speak with integrity. Too weak to lead.

Aaron Rupar @atrupar.com · 11d

STEPHANOPOULOS: Hold on a second. Answer the question. As Speaker, do you believe it's appropriate to use American cities as training grounds for the military, calling those people 'the enemy within'?

JOHNSON: I'm not comment on your characterization of what the president said.

S: Those are quotes
