Someone share this video with Brett Kavanaugh.

The Government sometimes makes brief investigative stops to check the immigration status of those who gather in locations where people are hired for day jobs; who work or appear to work in jobs such as construction, landscaping, agriculture, or car washes that often do not require paperwork and are therefore attractive to illegal immigrants; and who do not speak much if any English. If the officers learn that the individual they stopped is a U. S. citizen or otherwise lawfully in the United States, they promptly let the individual go. If the individual is illegally in the United States, the officers may arrest the individual and initiate the process for removal.

Netanyahu wouldn't have accepted this deal from Biden, but some commentators don't seem to realize that this makes Biden's deference to him all the more damning. He was obviously in the tank for Trump! So why didn't Biden play hardball?

During a military-style raid on a building in Chicago’s South Shore, one resident heard a knock on his door.   It wasn’t the feds — it was a mom and her 7-year-old daughter, pleading for help.

He let them hide in his unit for the next 3 days.

The Hare She Led On

THE HARE SHE WENT ON
Stella Sacco
I sat down to write something like
"I would have begged
If you had just asked me to.
But you didn't."

Three lines!
That would've hit.
People love those pithy little poems
And my stuff runs a little long (Or so every editor I've ever had
Has told me with some exasperation).

But.
Thing is.
I don't think I actually would've begged
Even if you had asked me.
I don't think I would've,
Like,
Rolled around in my own piss and shit for you
Like a fucking dog.

In our ancestral seat
There was a famous greyhound,
Master of the racetrack,
Who even impressed the Queen.
And after he died
They discovered his heart
Was twice as big as it should've been.

I know I have his big stupid simple heart, Two sizes too big,
Worked to death,
Aching to please and be pleased,
But my knees are all mine
And they just ache.

Dad would say
"If you have to ask the price
Then you can't afford it."
I'd say,
"If you get asked to beg,
Then the price is just too high."

But still.
You could have asked.

The fact that their ticket was mysteriously canceled the day before and then they were questioned by DHS is both one of the greatest political scandals and crises of my lifetime and just another fucking Thursday in 2025.
