I think we can safely say that the Leavitt's brother called ICE on his ex, the mother of his child, and I have to say: I have no desire to respect, find common ground or share the country with these monsters.
“After Ferreira was detained, Dos Santos Rodrigues said Michael Leavitt Sr. and his father, Bob Leavitt, reached out to her.”
“‘They just kept saying, ‘Tell her to self-deport,’” she recalled. “Self-deport to where? Brazil is not her home.’” www.bostonglobe.com/2025/11/26/m...

‘Brazil is not her home.’ Mother of Karoline Leavitt’s nephew, brought to US as child, detained by ICE. - The Boston Globe
Bruna Ferreira, 33, was brought to the United States as a child in 1998. She is now in removal proceedings in Louisiana.

Like, this is a dogshit, transphobic opinion from Gallego, but I'm more upset by how not-true it is?

Greg Bovino's more out of his depth than a private investigator hired by the wife of the head of the Los Angeles water commission!
"Son, Jack Nicholson doesn't have traditional leading man looks and came up in the Hollywood New Wave. He typically plays antiheroes or other character pieces."
Gregory Bovino’s sister, on him being mad at The Border:
“Greg was so psyched because he'd read all these articles and loved the toughness and the values of all these old timers. Then he went to the movie, and the Border Patrol person was a criminal.” www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article...

I think it’s generally male coded and since politics is gender, that’s how he gets there. But it turns out Zohran is both left AND male? Will be looking into it.

My actual food discourse take is that the problem with low stakes Internet discourse like the food stuff isn’t the people with opinions, it’s the people who act like you kicked their dog if you say you don’t like something they do. Learn how to not take other people’s opinions personally.
my take on Food Discourse is that it's always ridiculous but it's also nice to be fighting about dumb internet shit again instead of dealing with Oppressive Despair all the time so please keep posting your bad takes

Even under ACA smokers pay more, but as these are addictive products , i don't love this as policy. But I do think we can maybe outflank Sen Markwayne, a la this Washington big shot thinks y'all shouldn't dip. (He brought up dip)
Markwayne Mullin on healthcare: "What the president would like to do is say, hey, if you take care of yourself -- you don't smoke, you don't dip, you're not drinking, you're not overweight, you're working out -- then you should pay less than the guy that obviously is not taking care of himself."

In other words, they force fed the turkeys shit turkeys don’t naturally eat because Trump requested to have the biggest ones ever.
Trump: "Despite their size, Secretary Kennedy has formally certified that these are the first ever MAHA turkeys. They could be fat, but they're still MAHA. They've been fattened on a steady diet of grass, beef, to allow the smoothies and all the other things they have been eating for this occasion."
