ICE abducted Leticia Jacobo and tried to deport her, she is Native American.

Polk County Sheriff’s Office, which held her for ICE, admitted that it was a ‘clerical error’.

Her family fought through layers of bureaucracy to stop her from being disappeared.

“The strategy here is to make us afraid. The response from Chicago is a bunch of obscenities and ‘no,’” said Anna Zolkowski Sobor, whose North Side neighborhood saw agents throw tear gas and tackle an elderly man. “We are all Chicagoans who deserve to be here. Leave us alone.”

I wanted to share probably the most important sermon I’ve given and it’s while I’m being arrested. It’s torture pure and simple what happens at #Broadview. I’m ok, though I was thrown to the ground and choked with my pectoral cross. A review of the video shows I was peaceful - did I deserve this?

This, combined with the George Costanza/My Dinner With Andre discourse I’ve seen recently, makes me think that being a latchkey kid is the secret to immortality.

I bet Leo is all like “why can’t they just give me some Jordans”
does the pope have jerseys from every major league team yet

Just wait until someone tries to give him a Packers jersey.
That smile says "people are going to be giving me, the Vicar of Christ, sports jerseys for the rest of my time on earth, and that is not a problem I thought I would have in my papacy."
This is a real: Pope Leo XIV was gifted a Buffalo Bills jersey.

The Diocese of Buffalo said Bishop Fisher met with the Pope on Monday to discuss the ongoing bankruptcy filing, among other issues.

Pope Leo was said to have "expressed his gratitude for this symbol of hometown pride." #billsmafia
