"To the governor and the mayor here, I liked how you handled the city and the state when ICE came in here. Thank you."

Wow. The U.S. Embassy in Jerusalem tells Americans they’re on their own.
Life imitates art.

Elderly Jewish Holocaust survivors in Boca Raton are asking to hide Haitian staff in their rooms at their assisted living facility to protect them from the Regime. Wrap your head around that if you can. h/t @jbf1755.bsky.social
@hcrichardson.bsky.social gets really real at the very end.

The Greenland slogan is funny, but the hats definitely made us do a double take at first we thought they were MAGA gear. It actually stands for Make America Go Away.
Whud?
We are now 30 days beyond the statutory deadline for the full release of the Epstein files
