The acting director of ICE told Congress, under oath, that local law enforcement in Colorado leaked raid plans, allowing gang members to escape.
After 9NEWS questioned ICE's claim and its timeline, ICE deleted the claim from its social media platforms.
The young girls are clearly looking at Donald the Terrible & wondering WTF is wrong with him:
I drive a Volkswagen.
Volkswagen and Bosch both utilized slaves during WW2.
Yes, I hold a grudge, but i don’t blame what they did on my VW.
I hate Elon, but selling your Tesla is quite foolish. Considering *buying* a new Tesla? I’ll piss down your throat.

“We had milk and muffins”.
Stop dating athletes.
I cover my ears when a siren goes by too. I spent my salad years working at Rock concerts. And I have severe tinnitus, a deviated septum and a T-shirt to prove it.
Let me get this straight.
Today, Trump blew up the economy then skipped town to hang out with Saudis at a golf tournament instead of receiving the four soldiers who died in Lithuania??
Everyone wants there to be a grand scheme behind all of this but the terrible truth is that extremely stupid people are in charge and they have a fanatical devotion to wrong, childlike concepts of society and economics cooked up by right wing radio hosts in order to sell tainted dietary supplements
Google alerts me to any news with the words “VW Bus” in it.
Frequently, it alerts me to obits like this:
“He loved traveling throughout America and Europe and exploring various countries in a 1969 Volkswagen Bus with his family.”
Some day, I’ll be in an obit just like it, except mine is a 1971.
I came through Immigration at LAX recently. The Immigration agent was livid; my Global Entry had, unbeknownst to me, expired.
He sent me back to go through the “regular” line. I was very embarrassed.
I try to renew. “Not eligible” it says. Why?
My Global Entry permit doesn’t expire until 2027.
When I worked shows with reserved seating, about 1/2 of the patrons showed right at 8:00pm, showtime. Once they were inside, they didn’t understand that there are only so many ushers in the world and they didn’t really know where their seat was. It was NOT front row center. It was in the 2nd balcony
hey sorry I missed your text, I am processing a non-stop 24/7 onslaught of information with a brain designed to eat berries in a cave
Everywhere I go I see the Toyota Hilux.

Americans cannot possibly have one of these, because of something something. Bugger.

This year, I have traveled to El Salvador, Mexico, the Philippines and to Turkey. I’ve window-shopped in each.
So here’s my hypothesis: the entire world economy is dependent upon shops that sell replacement covers for cell phones. Who buys all of these phone covers? Does everyone lose theirs? 2/2
I have traveled a bit. This month, I have spent much of my time either going through metal detectors, napping to fight off jet lag or just wandering around, but not “sightseeing”. I like to see normal people in average neighborhoods doing stuff. And, to be honest, I really like window shopping. 1/2
I once read that the Chinese have an expression that “you can always fool a foreigner”. While international traveling is relatively straightforward, there are nuances that trip me up.
Today’s example: the taxi rank befuddled me. Took me awhile to figure it out, as I am a foreigner.
A foolish one.
I’m sitting in a bus station in Anatolia. It’s early morning and below freezing. I am drinking tea and eating a Simit. The proprietor is asking questions in Turkish. We use Google translate to communicate. He advises me to get a second, Turkish, wife. I explain that I have enough problems as it is.
Mmm. Grey bacon!
My inbox is currently overflowing with recipes for (mostly) traditional Thanksgiving food. Those “awful concoction” recipes are temporarily on hiatus.
I’m referring to otherwise familiar recipes where ingredient lists suddenly include miso, cauliflower, kale, chili crisp or chickpeas.
Fuck that.
Everybody lost this election. Some just don't know it yet.
That’s why there’s always a line.
I thought that what you posted was an urban legend, but I looked it up. Damn.

Manufacturers make whatever people will buy. You want commercial-quality stuff? They make it. You want a 65” TV for $9.99? They make that too. If you buy it, they’ll make it.
Thanks, Obama.
I travel a lot.
And, as a novice car buff, I am constantly gawking at cars that are strictly unavailable in the USA, but operate just fine without seeking our approval.
I could never afford a new Alfa, Lada or Tata, but I covet them just the same. My idea of a “new” car is my 2004 Toyota.

* Your cellphone battery will be depleted immediately before the perfect sunset photo.
* Your departure gate # will be “TBA”. After your gate # is finally listed, it will change, but not until you find it.
* Hot showers in hotels, are, at best, aspirational, no matter what was advertised. 2/2
* Buses that advertise internet never, ever, have internet.
* Hotel rooms are never more than 10 meters away from a crowing Rooster.
* Tourists get hangovers. Travelers get hangovers and diarrhea.
* Your phone charging cable will invariably disappear or fail during the trip. (continued)
Throw a few rolls of paper towels at them.
