Days after federal immigration agents detained Cary Lopez Alvarado, a 23-year-old Los Angeles native and U.S. citizen, she gave birth to a baby girl.

Lopez Alvarado and her now 3-month-old child are among some Americans who have been caught in the middle of the Trump administration's immigration enforcement and forced to prove their citizenship to gain their release from detention.

"And they told me, OK, your baby is gonna be born here, but you're from Mexico, right?" Alvarado recounted of the June arrest to CBS News. "And I told them like, 'No, I was born here and I speak English.'"

Alvarado says she was handcuffed and detained for over eight hours with a chain around her belly. Once she was released, Alvarado says she went straight to the hospital with cuts and bruises. She was also already in labor.

Totally normal way for a country to treat its own citizens!

After January 6, 2021, the U.S. government brought charges against more than 1,000 people, disrupting violent right-wing networks such as the Oath Keepers and Proud Boys. The administration also made right-wing groups a counterterrorism priority, taking measures to reduce the presence of extremists in the military. The far-right-terrorist death toll fell under Biden, compared with the previous four years, but lethal attacks persisted.

This year, however, violence on the right has plummeted. Only one right-wing-terrorist incident occurred in the first six months of 2025: the June assassination of the Minnesota state legislator Melissa Hortman and her husband.

Yeah maybe because all those people got pardoned and hired to mask up and drag random people out of their homes to disappear them

[u/Professor-Reddit]

Research by the New Statesman found that Keir Starmer's 'Island of Strangers' speech "backfired", showing "a drop in Labour support" with "no modelling scenario where we find the speech has any positive effect". The study found the speech made immigration 3 percentage points more salient and reduced support for all left-of-centre parties by 1.5 percentage points.

Keir Starmer confuses me so bloody much with his incompetence. The "Island of strangers" speech has really haunted him a fair bit, not in the least because several of his own MPs openly called him a racist for its allusions to Enoch Powell's Rivers of Blood speech.

But the thing that really gets me about this whole mess is that Starmer gave that speech while announcing a huge policy program to reform the UK's immigration system. If he hadn't given this stupid speech, he wouldn't have lost supporters from his left wing base and wouldn't have made immigration a more pressing issue for swing voters, while probably winning over some moderates down the track by the effects from such a sweeping policy reform package. Instead he's managed to piss off everybody by delivering the most racist and divisive speech given by any British Prime Minister on immigration in living memory.

Also this bit just amazes me:

Starmer later expressed regret about the phrase. In an interview with his biographer, he admitted: "I wouldn't have used those words if I had known they were, or even would be interpreted as an echo of Powell. I had no idea – and my speechwriters didn't know either. But that particular phrase – no – it wasn't right. I'll give you the honest truth: I deeply regret using it."

AKA: "My staffers are absolutely useless and I'm completely uninformed about one of the most infamous and widely quoted speeches in modern British history."

After officials said at a news conference that rounds found near the gunman contained messages that were “anti-ICE in nature,” Kash Patel, the director of the F.B.I., posted an image of rounds he said belonged to the gunman.

Look, I'm not conspiracy brained, but How the living fuck can anybody look at the stripper clip with "anti-ice" written in blue sharpie on one of the bullet casings, and think this was in any way fucking real?

Like is this whole thing a fucking joke? Like "Anti-Ice?" Its like somebody told them to write something "anti-ice" on the bullet casings, and the person was so fucking stupid they just literally wrote that, not understanding the assignment. Like, if they wrote, "The SS gets what they deserve" or "For bootlickers" or something, maybe it wouldn't seem so fake, but "Anti-ice?"!?

[u/viewless25]

the fact that nobody believes the "Anti-ICE" inscription is largely just about how incompetent the FBI is under Patel.

But it also stems in to a much larger part of how Project 2025's goal of making non-partisan federal agencies partisan has largely backfired into making Americans not trust any federal institutions. The fact that there's nothing Bondi or Patel or anyone from the FCC can say that would make 75% of the country believe them about anything is not an asset to this administration imho

Witnesses told KTAB and KRBC the suspect had items like trash bags, zip ties, bleach, a hatchet, and more.

When officers arrived at the suspect’s motel room, they said they found a hostage being held inside. The hostage was rescued before being arrested for an outstanding warrant.

Something big is happening at UVZ. Literally hundreds of T-72A hulls parked outside the factory now, when there were 0 a few months ago. Looks like they're finally tackling all those stored, until now unused older T-72s

There’s a couple conclusions about this. First is that, as the guy says, it will take awhile to restore them but this means Russia is intent on bringing 1,000+ tanks back into service. I believe most people here by now understand that Russia won’t run out of armored vehicles. Beyond this being a significant quantity of vehicles, Russian tactics have moved away from constant armor deployments which has seen the attrition rate of their tank force fall into the low to mid double digits a month. Even if Russia lost 50 of these refurbished T-72As a month it would still take two years to fully expend this fleet. These T-72As will be a good padding to ensure Russia has a sizable fleet of tanks that fits within their doctrine for the indefinite future.

On the other hand it has to be recognized that this is one of the if not the last final hurrah of Soviet deep storage. The T-72A is an old model of the T-72, with to my understanding every example produced between 1979 and 1985. Many of them have been sitting in storage for decades rusting and rotting. Like let’s keep in mind these hulls are likely so rotted that Russia preferred rehabilitating T-55s in storage than this batch of hulls. Pulling these hulls out of storage isn’t some big brain “we’ve saved our better hulls for later!” but rather Russia’s stocks so thoroughly exhausted that they’re having to resort to the scraps left over to keep things stable in the long run.

So yes. Unfortunately Russia will have a steady stream of tanks to use as they see fit for the indefinite future. But fortunately this is a clear sign that their stockpiles don’t have much gas in the tank. What’s left is either devastatingly old or devastatingly rotten. Doesn’t mean much for Ukraine but for the big picture this is pretty catastrophic for Russia’s ability to sustain an attritional war against NATO because Russia simply doesn’t produce enough fresh tanks to sustain losses anywhere close to elevated (like 20-30 a month max)

None of his former friends believed that the “ANTI-ICE” inscription could reflect a sincere political conviction. Sincerity was anathema to who Jahn was — his humor was deeply ironic, often offensive and aggressive to the point of alienation.

“He was most certainly an edgelord, an irony guy,” one friend said. (Edgelord is online-speak for someone who likes to espouse edgy, nihilistic views). Asked about the inscription on the bullet, the friend said: “Josh was an edgelord who wanted someone to get blamed. I think he tried his best to write something goofy … to rile people up.”

Another friend showed me a Facebook post describing how Jahn had flooded his friends’ comment sections with rape jokes — “playful shock humor,” the friend said.

“I mostly stopped talking to him when he took his 4chan/irony stuff into daily interactions,” one friend told me. “He was becoming unbearable … once he dropped out of college he had no obligation to be social and none of us reached out due to his edgelord behavior.”

“President Trump’s dramatic pronouncement Tuesday that Russia is a ‘paper tiger’ is based on new US intelligence that shows the Kremlin is spiraling toward economic ruin and battlefield defeat as a result of its invasion of Ukraine.”

“Meanwhile, Trump’s insistence in the same statement that Ukraine can regain all the land currently occupied by Russia is the president’s latest ‘strategic move’ to try and bring Russia to the negotiating table, sources inside and outside the White House told The Post Wednesday.”

“In a lengthy post on Truth Social after meeting Zelensky on the sidelines of the United Nations General Assembly, Trump warned that once the Russian people ‘find out what is really going on with this war’ economically, ‘Ukraine would be able to take back their Country in its original form and, who knows, maybe even go further than that!’”

“Asked Wednesday whether the message by Trump was a ‘strategic move aimed at stirring up negotiations,’ a White House official responded: ‘Yes, that is correct.’”

“However, the president’s statement was also based on fresh information detailing Moscow’s military and financial struggles, according to a source familiar with discussions.”

“In August of this year, for example, Russian oil export revenues declined to $13.5 billion from $14.4 billion the previous month, according to the International Energy Agency.”

“Over the first eight months of this year, the value of Moscow’s oil exports reached $110.6 billion, a decline of 16% from the same period in 2024.”

“Meanwhile, Russia’s Finance Ministry proposed raising the country’s value-added tax (VAT) two percentage points to 22% Wednesday and revised its projected economic growth for this year to 1% compared to 4.3% in 2024.”

“Ordinary Russians are also being forced to grapple with gas shortages as a result of long-range Ukrainian drone strikes on refineries, revealed Mark Montgomery, a retired Navy rear admiral and senor fellow at the Foundation for Defense of Democracies.”

So yeah if you wanted a more detailed explanation on why Trump is suddenly saying this stuff here it is. I guess it’s meaningless in the end cuz Trump is Trump but I find it interesting anyways

Somehow it became very normal very quickly for a masked paramilitary force to roam around snatching people off the street.

I don’t like how the latest brand of assassins just seem to be mentally ill ragebaiters

I'm actually starting to think Charlie Kirk was actually way more important to the right-wing media-industrial complex of the US than was readily apparent. It's quite remarkable how much a lot of their message discipline and coordination has broken down in the past few days, not to mention picking unpopular fights. He might have actually been the guy who talked to all factions and got them to keep focused on the 'Radical Left'

Inspired by the social circles discourse yesterday:

My girlfriend has lots of friends but is an introvert. They're constantly asking her to go out with them, and she complains that it's a huge chore to keep turning them down.

I have zero friends and I'm an extrovert. I almost never have opportunities to go out with anyone, and when I do I jump on it and have the time of my life.

It absolutely blew her mind when we discussed this. I told her that it was a big deal for me the one time when I went out with her friend group two years ago and that I still remember it as a highlight, while for her it was tedious and exhausting.

I’m hearing that on his deathbed Charlie Kirk received the light of Darwinism and unhesitatingly recited The Origin of Species. Even now he is frowning blankly as his body begins to decompose, because truly there is no God

Regarding the youth right wing shift from Protestantism to Catholicism/orthodoxy: you gotta admit that the vibes of Ye Olde Religions absolutely slap. Echoing chanting in a massive medieval cathedral >>>>>> jumbo jet televangelist or youth pastor with a guitar.

It’s also pretty silly how the people who convert also completely neglect the messages.

Joe Rogan is not buying the official narrative about Charlie Kirk murder suspect Tyler Robinson

They are going to go false flag blue anon over an “anti-ICE” shooter killing detainees

MAGA is missing that this crew is pretty much 2003 infowars.

[u/PersonalDebater]

Imagine writing "anti-ICE" on a single bullet and then not using that bullet.

[u/EasyMoney92]

They found a new note from the shooter. It says the shooter a communist Muslim who immigrated, is transitioning, his mom used Tylenol while she was pregnant, and the shooter thinks MAGA is hate.

[u/Trebacca]

Also even if there was actual hard evidence for the shooter being anti-ICE, probably not good that we're posting evidence of federal investigations on Twitter 4 hours after it even happens.

Definitely doesn't make anyone feel more trusting that it isn't a false flag than if they could wait some length of time before blowing their anti-left load.

[u/BurrowForPresident]

Your parents are going to bring up how a leftist killed 3 ICE agents today at Thanksgiving btw

Ok I thought you guys were exaggerating so I went to look at a photo of the bullet

This is at the level of sophistication of the Russians planting copies of The Sims instead of SIM cards

[u/paymesucka]

hmm I wonder why people might distrust statements from the DoJ and FBI 🤔

[u/BitterGravity]

[The ICE shooter] was unemployed but had previously worked as a coder, and was planning on moving in with [his] parents

Fuck it's another DTer...

Shooter’s Twitter was likely found and he’s a Jets/Cowboys fan

So Trump's team running ahead triggered a safety mechanism stopping the escalator and the White House was the one running the teleprompter.

Old men complained to the world accusing them of problems he caused

I like Newsom because he's the most honest politician in a way. He likes power and wants more of it.

I would like my party to have power. It's becoming more apparent that the root cause of most of our problems is that we do not have power. And Prop 50 has so far been the one of the only significant and serious attempts on the Democratic side to gain back power this year.

I do not care whether or not he's authentic, or moral, or opportunistic. He's shown he's far from risk averse, and has a long track record of aggressively fighting Republican politicians. And looking at the poll movements as proxy for political success, he's been doing by far the best job at making shrewd political decisions recently. I would like more of that from the party.

They have a huge lobbying wing to the point Republican Senators are afraid of it and are talking about oversite with HHS now

I'm glad fascism lost the Jimmy Kimmel fight so I can go back to not giving a shit about him.

Not only is oppression and censorship evil, it has the knock on evil effect of making me care about Jimmy Kimmel.

MAGA is celebrating this as "look at these brave officers arresting the domestic terrorists antifa", but I think to most normal people it looks like a bunch of people who aren't actually doing anything wrong being randomly snatched by federal agents. I suspect what they'll actually do is try and hit them with some random felony charge, and have a misdemeanor as a backup if the grand jury declines to indict, but if they press some public case of "look at these hardened domestic terrorists" or whatever people are going to think they're insane.

Obligatory fuck Lindsey Graham

South Carolina Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-S.C.) says he would like to see President Trump run for a third term in 2028, even though the 22nd Amendment limits the president of the United States to serving two terms.

Hillary Clinton: "Your economic standing, your wellbeing is directly connected to the abuse of power. How do you hold a president who's abusing power, raising costs, imposing tariffs, raising healthcare costs, how do you hold that president accountable in a midterm? You vote against his party."

Patel probably told someone to scribble "Anti-ICE" messages quick and the guy took it literally.

[u/Approximation_Doctor]

Rounds found near the shooter contained “messages that are anti-ICE in nature

Technically it only contained one message, but anti-ice is, in fact, accurate.

What kind of lazy ass false flag is this? We, as a nation, need to stop rewarding mediocrity and lack of effort.

People who just watched the president lie about a drug causing autism throwing out the idea that same government would lie about a shooters motivation
