The protestors at Kamala’s book tour should have spent $30 on her book vs $300 to disrupt her. They would have learned something instead of being anti black chaos agents hellbent on annoying her and her audience.

OMG. Thank you.

The suggestions don’t stop & btw I’m not anyone’s personal tailor for clothes that just need to be thrown away. That giant rip is not on a seam & no, I can’t fix it, nor do I want to.

ICE kidnapped a 7th-grader with a pending asylum claim and spirited him out of state without notifying his parents, seemingly with the cooperation of the local police in Everett, MA.

A 13-year-old boy was arrested by ICE in Everett and sent to a juvenile detention facility in Virginia.
A 13-year-old boy was arrested by Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents in Everett after an interaction with members of the Everett Police Department and sent to a juvenile detention facility in Virginia, according to his mother and immigration lawyer Andrew Lattarulo.

The boy’s mother, Josiele Berto, was called to pick her son up from the Everett Police Department on Thursday, the day he was arrested. After waiting for about an hour and a half, she was told her son was taken by ICE, Berto told the Globe in a phone interview.

“My world collapsed,” Berto said in Portuguese.

From the police department, the boy was taken to ICE’s holding facility in Burlington on Thursday evening, where he spent a night before being transferred by car to the Northwestern Regional Juvenile Detention Center in Winchester, Va., on Friday morning, his mother said. The juvenile facility is more than 500 miles away from Everett.

The boy is a 7th-grader at Albert N. Parlin School in Everett, his mother said. The teen and his family, who are Brazilian nationals, have a pending asylum case and are authorized to work legally in the United States, Lattarulo said.

She says she was a Republican for 50 years. Now she’s hanging around Dem accounts & telling them to do something. I swear. Go talk to your ppl. Jeffries is literally on Fox educating them.

Everyone who told you to support John Fetterman in that primary, is now telling you to support an ex-Blackwater mercenary with no voting record in the Maine primary.

When are you going to catch on?

Your occasional reminder that I've raised nearly 5x as much *directly* for Democrats so far this year than I had at the same point in 2021, and nearly 3x as much as I had at the same point in 2023 (and that was a POTUS cycle).

The tell here is Johnson/Thune could put Dems in a legitimate bind by offering a 1-year extension (which is what a handful of swing seat GOPs have already done).

This would put *Dems* in an awkward spot by "calling their bluff" bla bla bla.

But they won't even do THAT, likely because...Epstein.

Chris Murphy: "Republicans are boycotting negotiations to reopen the govt bc they're desperate to raise premiums on people by 75% in order to finance their tax cut for the wealthy. The other reason House isn't in town? They're about to have enough votes to mandate the release of the Epstein files."
