A Disabled Child’s Mom Reported Him Missing. He Was Locked Away by Federal Immigration Authorities for 48 Days. Emmanuel, a 15-year-old who has an intellectual disability, walked away from his mom’s fruit stand in October. Houston Police called ICE.

Emmanuel, a 15-year-old with intellectual disabilities, wandered away from his mom’s fruit stand in October.

She reported him missing to Houston police. But instead of reuniting them, the city turned him over to ICE.

“They’re failing all of us,” his mom said.

Mormon Wives’s Jessi Draper Credits the Show With Saving Her Marriage “I don’t think that would’ve happened if this hadn’t come out.”

When I finished season 3 of ‘The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives’, there was only one woman I wanted to talk to: Jessi Ngatikaura—or is it Draper now? She dished on her recent name change and why she's grateful this season focused on her marriage. www.vulture.com/article/secr...

I was laid off at Cosmo this week, but you can still read my piece there and show them that it was the biggest mistake they ever made!

Also, if you know of anyone hiring/looking for someone experienced in media content management/SEO/entertainment/ecomm, please let me know!

I wish I was surprised that Deadline claims it asked questions that were actually asked by me and other journalists at this James Gunn press conference. No one from Deadline even *submitted questions* for it (and I know, because I moderated). This is just brazen and sad.

What David Del Rio’s Firing Means for ‘Matlock’ Season 2 and Why It Matters The series regular was reportedly escorted off set on Thursday.

The People Being Arrested By ICE That No One’s Talking About The Trump administration’s deportation machine is detaining immigrant women at record numbers — and they've become invisible targets.

The Trump administration’s deportation machine has made women invisible targets.

NEW: I spoke with a woman named Andrea about her experience being detained by ICE after calling the cops for help during a domestic violence incident.

She was recently postpartum, breastfeeding & put in an all-male facility. She was detained for 2.5 months.

Beyond the 60 Minutes payoff & Colbert cancelation, an unprecedented capitulation: as part of merger agreement, new parent company agrees to install an official to "monitor bias" at CBS’s news division. CBS news will essentially be state controlled media.

‘Capitalism Is Theft’: I Followed Zohran Mamdani’s Internet Trail

‘Capitalism Is Theft’: I Followed Zohran Mamdani’s Internet Trail

Mamdani’s internet trail reveals far more than a veneered candidate biography on a website ever could. In tweet after tweet, he calls for the end of the free market, for defunding the police, and for dismantling the prison system, which he describes as the “carceral state.” He champions communism (at least in one jokey photo), stans anti-Israel activist Linda Sarsour, calls cops “haram” (the Arabic term for forbidden under Islamic law), and insists that New York should look more like socialist Vienna. As Mamdani moves more into general-election mode as the front-runner to beat—wearing suits, moderating his message, and cozying up to the business community—his digital past offers a rare glimpse of the ideology beneath the polish.

Under capitalism, he wrote, gender equality was “impossible.” The only way forward, in his view, was to decriminalize “both the buying and selling of consensual sex.” In a section titled “Protect Sex Workers and End Violence Against Women and Nonbinary People,” Mamdani rejected the so-called Nordic Model, which makes it illegal to buy sex, but not to sell it. He called that model “untenable.”

Bari Weiss's website assigned a reporter to read every single Zohran Mamdani tweet over the last 18 years and came up with shockingly little dirt.

Eric Adams, a gentile, going after Brad Lander, a Jew, for not investing in Israel because Adams is running on the End Antisemitism party line to try to salvage his own corrupt legacy and hold onto power is really giving the game away in a way that I hope people notice

So the Times didn’t even cover the “Shylocks” thing at all? Like it’s not only not on the front page, it doesn’t appear to be in the paper anywhere, unless I’m missing something?? Truly a stunning choice. I don’t get it.
