Imagine a fellow draft dodger like Bill Clinton, posting an image of him in uniform, wearing more medals than Patton or MacArthur. Fox News would’ve spontaneously combusted

Helen Kennedy@helenkennedy.com · 12h ago

This guy never served. He faked an injury to avoid the draft. None of his children have served. He called those who did serve their country "suckers and losers." He skipped the centenary memorial for servicemen who died in WWI because it was drizzling. This is more than usually repellent.

This couple came legally. They applied for asylum before their visas expired, wanting to do it all by the books. After six months, they applied for work permits to stay afloat, passing background checks. They worked legally and paid taxes while government delay dragged on. Then ICE came for them.

The couple quickly became key to Chicago’s nightlife, curating events and performing in some of Chicago’s most popular venues. They were getting ready for their biggest venture yet: following Karol G’s tour across the country, hosting unofficial afterparties. But on Sunday morning, as the couple walked out of their rideshare outside of Midway Airport, they were apprehended by federal immigration agents. The two were on their way to take a flight to Washington, D.C., the first stop of the tour. They never made it through the door. The Department of Homeland Security said it had arrested Panqueva, 26, and Paez, 27, for overstaying their visas, which both expired in 2022. But their attorney, Enrique Espinoza, said the pair had applied for asylum within the required time frame before their visas expired. The two both have asylum cases, Social Security numbers, work permits and the documents required for their ongoing legal process, Espinoza said.

The couple’s arrest outside Midway Airport aligns with what immigration attorneys across the country have observed in recent months: an increase in ICE arrests at airports of people traveling domestically with expired visas but pending immigration cases. www.chicagotribune.com/2026/08/05/c...

President Trump had endorsed Amir Hassan ahead of Tuesday’s Republican primary for Michigan’s 8th Congressional District. And yet Hassan is projected to lose the GOP primary to Thomas J. Smith, who suspended his campaign in mid-July.

Truly evil to see MAGA lunatics and white supremacists issuing death threats to the mother of Nolan Wells in an effort to silence her and stop her from finding out why her 18 year old son is dead.

El-Sayed: I think that's clearly what's gone wrong with Fetterman. It's clear he probably doesn't spend much time in Pennsylvania. He was campaigning with Bernie Sanders and now wants to renounce him. I'm hoping to get to the U.S. Senate. Maybe we can hash that conversation out in person.

Folks from the Women's March have been arrested at the Capitol for protesting ICE. Shout out to the women who are putting their lives and livelihoods on the line to get their message out: ABOLISH ICE.

Police in Wisconsin used Flock to track a man who traveled to Michigan, where marijuana is legal, then back to Wisc., where it is illegal They then used his travel as part of the probable cause justification to search his car for weed and he eventually was arrested

Cops Used Flock to Track a Man Across State Lines to Create Pretext to Search His Car for Weed

"The vehicle travels to Michigan frequently which is a known source state for marijuana as it is legal there," a probable cause justification reads.
