Officials have detained the mother of White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt’s nephew amid the Trump administration’s ramped-up immigration enforcement efforts, a source familiar with the matter confirmed to NBC News.

The “mother of the nephew” is a deadbeat who abandoned the nephew in question. A monster, in other words. But media coverage is worded in a way that inattentive readers will miss this crucial fact.

    One man "paid the price" by having his identity stolen, costing him tens of thousands of dollars and making his life hell. The other "paid the price" by being arrested and charged for the crime he knowingly committed.

    One of the craziest framings of a story I've ever seen. pic.twitter.com/gbakTLU8Wf

    Two national guardsmen shot to death today. Staff writer at the New Yorker opines:

    This is so tragic, so unnecessary, these poor guardsmen should never have been deployed. I live in DC and watched as they had virtually nothing to do but pick up trash. It was for political show and at what a cost. https://t.co/ABkOHNHAvG

    Looks like it was an Afghan national who previously (?) worked for NGOs, and was imported during the Biden admin.

    The reason these tragedies, perpetrated by Afghan biorefuse, continue to happen throughout the west is because our government refuses to normalize relations with the government of the Islamic Emirate of Afghanistan (i.e. The Taliban)

    The reason these tragedies, perpetrated by Afghan biorefuse, continue to happen throughout the west is because our government refuses to normalize relations with the government of the Islamic Emirate of Afghanistan (i.e. The Taliban)

    The war in Afghanistan ended in August 2021 when the Taliban liberated Kabul. At that time, the Biden Administration implemented Operation Allies Welcome letting in nearly 75,000 Afghans under the false pretense that, by working with the US Military, these people were in danger of reprisals from the Islamic Emirate.

    Those reprisals never came, and in that time we imported the absolute dregs of Afghan society. Imagine what scum you have to be to be a born and bred Afghan, born and raised in Afghanistan, see a foreign occupying military force invade, and decide to collaborate with them.

    Is it any surprise that the people then come to the west and unleash all kinds of havoc? There is no greater scum than the person that sells out his land and his people to be a collaborationist traitor.

    Because western governments continue to treat the IEA as a pariah state, these people have a legal pretext upon which to claim asylum despite the fact that there have been no reprisals and the war has been over for nearly 5 years.

    In April of 2025, the Trump administration ended temporary protected status for roughly 15,000 of Afghan imported. This issue is not limited to the Biden Administration.

    All of these people need to be stripped of their visas, denaturalized and deported. Normalizing relations with the Islamic Emirate of Afghanistan is an AMERICA FIRST, PRO WESTERN position and is the legal basis for sending them all back.

      Afghanis are the second worst migrant group after Somalis everywhere they go. The most violent, the most rapey, the most unemployable.

          This tweet is so insane, one finds it hard to believe it’s real. Unfortunately, it’s only too real.

        The funny thing is kristol can call Trump all the names he wants, disavow him every chance he gets, but it’s his agenda that Trump is dutifully carrying out. Trump’s cratering in the polls, his “brand” is becoming toxic by the day, but that doesn’t matter.

        "Should President Trump deport Afghan allies back and the Taliban execute them, he will complete America’s betrayal of the values embodied in a generation of American combat veterans. So much for respecting the military. So much for making America great."https://t.co/hLjekpyykL

      Yeah, watching a couple threads on X, and that story is connected to *everything*. The conspiracy bingo card fills up quick: CIA, NGOs, Soros, John McCain, Catholic Charities. Is there any sus person or organization the shooter *wasn’t* connected to?
