so we’re all clear Leavitt and her brother are using ICE to ‘settle’ a custody dispute, yes? utterly disgusting, monstrous, and corrupt.

REVERE, Mass. —
A woman with a family connection to White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt has been arrested by Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents in Revere, Massachusetts.

The woman, Bruna Ferreira, has an 11-year-old son with Michael Leavitt, Karoline Leavitt's brother.

Ferreira migrated with her family to the United States from Brazil as a child and is currently in custody at an ICE facility in southern Louisiana.

Michael Leavitt released a statement, saying that his "only concern has always been the safety, well-being, and privacy of [his] son."

It feels as if they will do anything but sign pitching (bullpen or starters) that are proven in MLB...

The great orange one keeps bragging that thanksgiving is cheaper. We know the Walmart is BS, but really everything is insane. Due to some health issues in the family, I’m helping out doing doing a bunch of sides for 17 people. I spend a pretty penny on it… people are definitely going to feel it.

this is such a nice article. If feel like it does such a good job of summing up a lot of the stuff I've been screaming into the void for a long time now.

LOL, wut. So a few years ago, I started changing up the green bean casserole. I no longer use mushroom soup. I use bechamel and cheese sauce just like mac and cheese. So basically, it is mac and cheese with green beans instead of noodles. So essentially we have two mac and cheese sides! delicious.
