ICE using the same ruse that Ted Bundy used to kidnap people should tell you something.
CCTV footage appears to show DHS agents posing as people having car trouble in order to lure a target out of his house before arresting them. The target comes out and starts helping them before 3 vehicles surround the scene. The car "experiencing" trouble then drives off with them.

I don’t think anyone acquainted with the Epstein files can deny that the Republican Party is sincerely committed to putting children to work.
Florida AG James Uthmeier: "We need to focus on getting people into the workforce even earlier. We passed legislation last year to help high school students get their hands dirty and get on job sites more quickly."

If you ask a Mexican person if the food they're eating is spicy, you cannot trust the answer.
You might hear "a little", "it has spice", or the classic: "No, it's not spicy at all."
For years, I thought this was a national inside joke. The truth is much weirder and retrospectively obvious (1/x)

Not only did Trump fail to learn any lessons from covid, but his public health policies have somehow gotten far more dangerous and destructive in Trump 2.0. God forbid he and RFK Jr have to handle a global pandemic. We'll be pining for the days of Dr. Birx.
Trump somehow got worse on public health after covid
He's incapable of learning lessons and actively resists it.

⚠️ For the first time, the Trump administration is seeking to convict anti-ICE protesters on charges related to domestic terrorism.
Federal prosecutors have characterized the protest as an “antifa attack.”
The trial for nine of the defendants starts TODAY:
