    Boy, 6, battling cancer is seized by ICE outside Texas courthouse | Daily Mail Online

    excerpt:

    "A Honduran mother has sued ICE and the Trump administration after she and her cancer-stricken six-year-old son were arrested by agents outside a Los Angeles immigration court.

    The woman, who is not named in court documents, said they violated her family's rights by detaining them at a Texas facility, despite their lawful efforts to seek asylum in the U.S.

    In a scathing petition filed in San Antonio federal court, her lawyers argue that the arrest was unconstitutional and traumatic, especially for her young son who has undergone chemotherapy for acute lymphoblastic leukemia."

    Trump keeps pushing forward the deadline for all the trade deals he will supposedly make (the ones he initially said he had already made but didn't).


    https://www.cnn.com/2025/06/28/economy/trade-deals-tariffs-trump

    excerpt:

    “I’ve made all the deals,” Trump said in a Time interview in late April, saying trade negotiations with foreign partners were nearly complete. “I’ve made 200 deals.”

    More than two weeks later, Trump acknowledged that hundreds or even dozens of deals aren’t possible on such a short timeframe — a point he reiterated Friday at a press briefing at the White House.

    “You know, we have 200 countries,” Trump said. “We can’t do that. So at a certain point, over the next week and a half or so, or maybe before, we’re going to send out a letter. We talked to many of the countries, and we’re just going to tell them what they have to pay to do business in the United States. And it’s going to go very quickly.”

    Judge blocks Trump's order that targeted lawfirm that represented Dominion in its lawsuit against Fox News.

    Trump is upset that Fox lost a dafamation suit that stemmed from promoting misinformation about the 2020 election supposedly being stolen from him.

    In response, Trump is trying to retaliate by crippling law firms involved in such suits (or any other suits he doesn't like) by not allowing them to access federal government documents.

    The White House's first sentence in its statement about Trump's order to block the law firm. It did not state any statutory authority that would give Trump a right to cripple lawyers or firms it doesn't like.


    White House: "Lawyers and law firms that engage in activities detrimental to critical American interests"

    Los Angeles police responded to a kidnapping call. But instead found an ICE operation

    excerpt:

    "Lawmakers say the masks are intimidating and agents working without identifiable uniforms or even any visible gear can make it unclear if the federal agents are even real law enforcement or are imposters posing as police to commit crimes or take advantage of the situation."

    Trump would rather hold a daily observance where he salutes while the perverted version of the National Anthem by the J6 riot singers plays and he talks about how unfairly he thinks the MAGA shooter is being treated.

    Just as disturbing is that half of America doesn't have issue with those traits and behavior, and some even applaud it as being an asset.

    That psychological state of the society is what placs such people in office who then consolidate their power, making it difficult to hold them accountable.

    Americans fought so hard and gave up about 418,000 of their lives to overcome fascism during the WWII era. Today, some in the U.S. are defending fascist behavior and voting it into office.

    Some of the public is regretting that it reelected Trump.

    Families are seeing their relatives snatched by Trump's ICE, such as the 64-year-old Iranian woman who had been in the U.S. for about four decades who was arrested at home while she was gardening and taken away in cuffs. She's now in a detention camp in Louisiana.

    Some of the people who voted for Trump wanted him to stick to people and groups they don't like. They just didn't want him to stick it to them. They miscalculated.

    After decades in the US, Iranians arrested in Trump’s deportation drive

    excerpt:

    But over four decades, Kashanian, 64, built a life in Louisiana. The couple met when she was bartending as a student in the late 1980s. They married and had a daughter. She volunteered with Habitat for Humanity, filmed Persian cooking tutorials on YouTube and was a grandmother figure to the children next door.

    The fear of deportation always hung over the family, Milne said, but he said his wife did everything that was being asked of her.

    “She’s meeting her obligations," Milne said. "She’s retirement age. She’s not a threat. Who picks up a grandmother?”

    I don’t know what ET (Eric Trump) is thinking. Hamburglar has a better chance at running than he does.

    Trump frees felon to try to keep Maryland father locked up.


    Trump Frees Felon to Keep Deported Maryland Dad Locked Up

    excerpt:

    "Despite President Donald Trump’s pledge to focus mass deportation efforts on criminals—the “worst of the worst”—the DOJ has now released three-time felon Jose Ramon Hernandez Reyes from federal prison and transferred him to a halfway house in exchange for his testimony against Abrego Garcia, an undocumented father from Maryland."
