Among detainees at Eloy Detention Center, 79-year-old Julia Benitez is known as "la abuela," the grandmother in Spanish.
ICE ended up returning the man, Saly, after realizing he’s a fucking US citizen with no criminal record, per his sister-in-law. These fucking animals.
Just caught myself texting this Monday morning mini-rant:
Goddammit I wonder how many cases of Alzheimer’s have been misdiagnosed when old farts like me meant to text things like “ruby red grapefruit” and autocorrect changed it to “riveted grapefruit.”
I think AI has Alzheimer’s.
Column: Arizona voters gave residents a way to seek compensation from their hometowns for expenses caused by illegal camping, public drug use and the like. Tucson has received most of the complaints, but it is rejecting every case -- and the law itself.

DHS says our new piece is "dishonest, slanted, and fundamentally inaccurate" but won't say why. Here's the story where we show with evidence that DHS spliced together clips spanning years and multiple locations to create its own reality. Gift link wapo.st/4nuDGwf

weratedogs This is Chop. He was shot and killed by masked assailants in plain clothes who go by ICE. Unsurprisingly, they did not care enough to help the family as they tried to save him. Even more unsurprising, they did not find any evidence of the migrants they were there to terrorize in the first place. Do not open your door for these fucking losers.

When you’ve pissed off WeRateDogs so much they’re calling you “fucking losers” on Main you have absolutely lost all merit in the court of public opinion
That initiative led me to write this column last year, exasperated at how legislators (and the general public) seem to want to blame everything on the border, and take no responsibility ourselves!

Good morning, Tucson!
Q: How did the White House decide it was appropriate for Jared Kushner to be working on matters that involve Qatar, the UAE, Saudi Arabia -- 3 countries combined that have given him more than $2.5b

This is a massive, history making abuse of your power. It will define your legacy and one day you will come to regret punishing free speech and trying to destroy democracy.
Autumn already! - But why regret an eternal sun, if we are committed to the discovery of divine clarity, - far from people who die over the seasons.
~Arthur Rimbaud, from, “Adieu”
The right only believes in free speech when it protects their voices. Jimmy Kimmel floated the obvious, maybe the Charlie Kirk killer wasn’t some mythical “antifa leftist” but came from their own side, and suddenly his show is on “indefinite pause.”
One step closer to authoritarianism.
Yes, release the Epstein files!!!
