The Department of Homeland Security has ordered immigration officers to gather identifying information about anyone filming them and to “send that information to Intel who will do a ‘work-up’ on them,” a federal law enforcement official directly involved tells me.
“Meaning, trying to identify them via social media, running their license plates if available, and running a criminal history check,” the official explained.

Also, the rollerblade wheels will be moving from the old Office Depot chair to the new one...

An announcement: Many of you may know that I am in a long-distance relationship. My fiancée @… has recently made some serious progress in searching for a house where the both of us can live, so it's looking more and more likely that I will be leaving New Hampshire to go live with her soon. For this reason, I'd like to announce that I won't be running for reelection in 2026.

Either of them would be strong progressives who align with my values, so I encourage any constituents to vote for either of them in the contested primary this September.
