It appears #Trump may have released Dahud Hanid Ortiz, in the U.S., as part of a botched "hostage swap" with Venezuela, which was staged for a photo-op and a headline.
The only problem? Ortiz is a Venezuelan-born Venezuelan citizen who was convicted of a triple homicide and sentenced to 30 years.

The story was always already about an impoverished unmarried couple facing a pitiless bureaucracy, having a baby in a barn, and then having to hide from a tyrant. The baby grew up to say that the poor were blessed and the neighbor is he who shows mercy. You can’t hide from the politics of all that.
This year, statues of tall men clad in all black with masks drawn up to hide their faces are disrupting the serenity of a Charlotte church's Nativity scene.
The figures are depicted approaching the Holy Family and the Wise Men with handcuffs as if preparing to make an arrest.

My issue is that everyone wants legislation and assumes it will just all work. It won’t. Too many vested interests. Too much need for AI to make it all work, which will scare people and make them question it more.

Once we know actual costs, or close, then companies, cities, states or the country can decide what it is they will pay for and how it will be paid for. This is effectively what happened in Canada

Someone needs to say it. Trump 2028 isn’t happening.
We know the presidency ages you, and we’re witnessing his rapid decline. His approval is buried in the 30s, and his stamina is gone. He won’t be able to vigorously campaign.
He can pretend 2028 is inevitable, but everyone can see the truth.

This is almost word for word what xenophobes in the 1930s and 1940s said about Miller's Jewish ancestors and relatives. He's so hateful he couldn't possibly recognize that of course.

Trump's speech about the shooting in DC veered into him attacking the Somali community in Minnesota, which of course had nothing to do with the shooting. Gives away his bigoted game.
