UPDATE: Three days on, disabled veteran and US citizen George Retes is still missing after being kidnapped by ICE.

His wife has phoned every law enforcement agency in the area, they all say they don’t know where he is.

It was his daughter’s third birthday yesterday.

This is America now.

JFC! We’ve got a teenager with full access to the State Department’s data—one who joked about wiping servers after getting fired for leaking a security firm’s info to a competitor.

Two phrases officially retired: “No one is above the law.” “GOP backs the blue.”
