Someone was abducted at 10 AM by ICE on Central Ave. Their coworker says they’ve lived here for over 20 years, are documented, and have 3 kids who were born here.
Don’t be fooled by headlines when they’ve been lying to us the whole time. We still need you out patrolling until every agent is gone.

WILL THE CFP VOTE TO EXPAND BOBSLED
in addition to the triples luge i am proposing they keep doubling the size of the bobsled. in addition to the monobob, 2-man bobsled, and 4-man bobsled, i must see the 8-man bobsled and the 16-man bobsled and the 32-man bobsled
Quick question… have they ever considered triples luge

The Trump administration is deporting a Christian minister back to the country that tortured him, which seems like the kind of thing the Religious Right would care about if a dirty Democrat were doing it.
“I followed the rules. I’ve done great in the community. I’ve never abused any of the conditions of the stay or of my supervision…I’m so scared, I cannot go back."
ICE brutally detained a minister in Vermont. Now, the Trump administration wants to send him back to Uganda, where he was tortured.

He fled torture in Uganda. ICE is trying to send him back.
People like Pastor Steven Tendo “are exactly who our asylum system is meant to protect.”

Today in the second round of the Walt Disney Animation Studios bracket, two unlikely friends face off against…well, two unlikely friends. But I kinda think the more recent story has a hoof up here.

I made 150 dollars worth of Super Bowl bets. I was invested in the Patriots beating the Seahawks.
I ended up +85 dollars
