Peeked into a Balenciaga window and it’s basically stuff from your favorite gritty skate shop’s sales bin priced by 50x. Nothing against haute couture, I just wish they would give credit where credit’s due.

The BU student who complained that prized "American jobs" at a car wash were being given away to immigrants is himself British.
I wonder if he has any opinions on whether prized spots at American universities should or should not be given away to immigrants?

According to the car wash owner, agents arrested employees before they could obtain their documentation from their work lockers. So many were likely here legally.
Here's hoping this article on Zac boasting about how he ruined some immigrants' lives follows him around for a very long time.

ICE grabs father by the neck—send him into violent seizure while his arms lock up around his toddler.
"He's having seizure and they're trying to rip the baby out of his hands!"
Agents then handcuff him—before putting in ambulance with his child.
Mother is detained by agents as target of arrest.
