This will be interesting. If they go easy on Ferreira, it looks like the favoritism it’ll be, causing greater rifts w/Latinos. If they deport, Leavitt’s probably unwelcome at family holidays for forever. “I’ve had choices…” George Jones #leopardseatingfaces

![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."](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:x4qyokjtdzgl7gmqhsw4ajqj/bafkreiacyzixchgacpjse7wyra342opgjsvdxzqdrkxq55zzqah65zyeae@jpeg)

I mean, who can deny the power, the majesty, the sheer literary thrust of the erotic poems of RFKJr. Just reading this sample has me throbbin’!

Worm brain's love prose is like Neruda remimagined by Bob Guccione.
It probably worked well on the whale head in private.

Really loved RFKJr’s poems about wanting to ejaculate in Olivia Nuzzi’s mouth. That’s the kind of love you only find between two people cheating on their spouses while ratfucking an election. @vanityfair.com hiring Nuzzi is a stain on their credibility. Will she fuck and lie for all her sources?

The weird thing is with Donald Trump just said about Zohran Mandani is what every Democrat should’ve said about Zohran Mamdani the moment he secured the Democratic nomination.

DOD contractors “mistakenly” landed on a Mexican beach, declared it US property and planted “restricted area” DOD signs, triggering a tense confrontation with armed Mexican forces.
Mexico removed the signs, insisting the area is theirs.
Yet another example of total incompetence.
