A restraining order was issued YESTERDAY by a federal judge barring detention of journalists in this district unless they refuse to reposition themselves and are given adequate time to do so, or there’s probable cause they’ve committed a crime.

This isn’t the first time flash flooding in this zone has killed campers, just the most well known with the highest death toll.

The head of the Border Patrol’s enforcement efforts posted a picture of his agents detaining a rapist who posed as a rideshare driver.

Problem: The picture shows the wrong guy.

And the accused rapist has been in the Cook County jail since being charged.

Portland is Särimner 🤣
"Särimner, in Norse mythology, is the magical boar slain and eaten every night by the gods and warriors in Valhalla. Each morning, it is resurrected, providing endless feasts—a symbol of eternal abundance and renewal for the fallen heroes."
