He is a union apprentice and raising three special needs kids, two of them from his wife's previous relationships so yes he is certainly in the running.
Leavitt describes Abrego Garcia as "hiding in Maryland" and says, "based on the sensationalism of many of the people in this room, you would think we deported a candidate for father of the year"

My daughter's daycare just sent out an email about potentially needing to layoff staff because new babies about to start withdrew because of parental job losses. So if you're wondering how government layoffs and mass contract cancellations will affect the economy, here's an example

Behold! Biggest Liar in New York wants to be mayor
Hailing from the wilds of Albany, this is a conniving colossus of canards, a freak of fabrication, a behemoth of balderdash. We call it Andrew Cuomo.

This might be the most nakedly corrupt document I’ve seen on DOJ letterhead — and I wrote a history of Watergate!
“You are directed … to dismiss the pending charges in United States v. Adams, No. 24 Cr. 556 (SDNY)…. The Justice Department has reached this conclusion without assessing the strength of the evidence or the legal theories on which the case is based”
![Memorandum from the Acting Deputy Attorney General
Dismissal Without Prejudice of Prosecution of Mayor Eric Adams
Page 2
Of The Federal Government. These actions and the underlying case have also improperly interfered with Mayor Adams' campaign in the 2025 mayoral election. See Justice Manual § 9-
85.500, entitled Actions that May Have an Impact on an Election.
Second, the pending prosecution has unduly restricted Mayor Adams' ability to devote full attention and resources to the illegal immigration and violent crime that escalated under the policies of the prior Administration. We are particularly concerned about the impact of the prosecution on Mayor Adams' ability to support critical, ongoing federal efforts "to protect the American people from the disastrous effects of unlawful mass migration and resettlement," as described in Executive Order 14165.' Accomplishing the immigration objectives established by President Trump and the Attorney General is every bit as important—if not more so as the objectives that the prior Administration pursued by releasing violent criminals such as Viktor Bout, the "Merchant of Death."? Accordingly, based on these additional concerns that are distinct from the weaponization problems, dismissal without prejudice is also necessary at this time.
' Your Office correctly noted in a February 3, 2025 memorandum, *as Mr. Bove clearly stated to defense counsel during our meeting [on January 31, 2025], the Government is not offering to exchange dismissal of a criminal case for Adams's assistance on immigration enforcement."
2 According to an October 2024 Wall Street Journal article, Bout has already started to participate in arms deals again, including negotiations with representatives of Ansar Allah, also known as the Houthis. https://www.wsj.com/world/russia/putins-merchant-of-death-is-back-in-](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:on5oeywiqx32fh2zau473wz6/bafkreidtbdebawe7yluohx6ktbosdjqfdcf7ukryaemdjtgcpygzklaefe@jpeg)
