'That'll be interesting'

'There aren’t real cuts'

It Sounds As If the June Rainbow Is Fading at Target

When did stating the facts become considered a lack of compassion now? According to Tuesday and Wednesday’s edition of CBS Morning Plus, yes. In Milford, Massachusetts, a case launched protests and legal action for the arrest of 18-year-old Milford High School student Marcelo Gomes Da Silva by ICE. Here’s the catch, Gomes Da Silva was an illegal immigrant.   As ICE operations were being executed in Massachusetts, the 18-year-old high school student took his father's car on Saturday to volleyball practice and found himself facing federal authorities. ICE was initially looking for Gomes Da Silva’s father who, according to ICE, was “their target.”       CBS Morning Plus correspondent, Lilia Luciano clutched her pearls:   An attorney for Gomez Da Silva told us that he came to the U.S. from Brazil when he was seven years old, and until recently, he was here on a student visa, but that lapsed. Now, even though ICE agents weren’t looking for the high school junior and AP student, according to the attorney, he still faces removal proceedings.   No matter how the story was being presented, the family’s attorney acknowledged that his student visa expired, which classified him as an illegal immigrant. To CBS Morning Plus, this was a sob story to push their agenda for being against the arrests and deportations of illegal immigrants residing in the country.    When Luciano asks Robin Nice, Gomez Da Silva’s attorney, for a response to people who see nothing wrong with an undocumented deportation, Nice defends the student by insisting he is a “kid with no criminal record” when he was the legal age of 18 with a student visa that “expired several years ago” according to Luciano.    Field office director of ICE Enforcement and Removal Operations, Patricia Hyde, did not hinder from sharing the truth about this ICE operation arrest at a press conference revolving around the month-long immigration enforcement round-up stating: “He’s 18 years old. He’s unlawfully in this country. And unfortunately, we had to go to Milford to look for someone else and we came across him and he was arrested.”  Acting ICE director, Todd Lyons, confidently calls out Gomes Da Silva’s father at the press conference disclosing that “his dad hasn’t turned himself in yet.”    CBS Evening Plus also contributed to the left-wing bias by leaving out the facts on the case Tuesday night. Immigration reporter at CBS News, Camilo Montoya-Galvez, made sure to blame the Trump administration for the mass arrests and deportations of illegals describing the situation as:   That’s right, so we know an 18-year-old in Massachusetts was detained by ICE just this past weekend in Milford. And according to his family, he has no criminal record in the U.S. and has been living here for most of his life, about 13 years. And those are characteristics, John, that traditionally would refrain, or make ICE refrain, rather, from arresting somebody. But under this administration, they have made it very clear that anyone who is here illegally, it’s fair game to be arrested and deported from the country.   Montoya-Galvez forgot one detail that motivated the arrest: the expired student visa. The Trump administration promised and was proving to protect U.S. citizens from crime that can stem back to illegal immigrants who had entered the country by not enduring through the legal process. It was a shame that the liberal media sided with what sounded compassionate for the left-wing bias when that was not helping to keep America safe.  This case served as an example of left-wing media platforms expanding into manipulating people’s emotions to look down upon the services and strong measures to keep U.S. citizens secure and protected.    Click below to see the transcript:  CBS’s Evening Plus 06/03/25 7:02:01 p.m. 2 minutes and 31 seconds [ON-SCREEN HEADLINE: Asylum Crackdown] JOHN DICKERSON: We begin tonight with a proposed new rule that could indefinitely prevent asylum seekers from being able to work legally in the United States. The change is still under consideration, but if approved, would upend 30 years of immigration law. CBS’s Camilo Montoya-Galvez joins me now to explain. Tell me exactly, Camilo, what rule is being considered here? CAMILO MONTOYA-GALVEZ: John, this would be a major change to U.S. immigration policy. Dating back to the 1990s, the U.S. has allowed asylum applicants to work in the U.S. lawfully while their cases are adjudicated, mainly to prevent them from relying on government aid and assistance, and typically under current procedures and regulations, asylum applicants can be eligible for that work permit once their case has been pending for 180 days. But this proposal, under consideration by the Trump administration, would upend that process by enacting a pause, a suspension in work permits for asylum seekers until officials are able to process and adjudicate all asylum cases within an average of 180 days. And even if that goal is reached, which is very unlikely given the current constraints and backlogs, officials would increase the waiting period for asylum seekers to be eligible for a work permit from six months to one year. JOHN DICKERSON: So – so, would you – does this effectively mean you wouldn’t be able to work at all, or what’s the practical effect for somebody? MONTOYA-GALVEZ: Well, the practical effect is that if this pause goes into effect and you are applying for asylum, you are no longer able to get that work permit and you would have to rely on others or the government for substance. But the administration is arguing that this will curtail abuse in the system. Advocates are concerned, however, that this will encourage migrants to work in the U.S. illegally in dangerous and unlawful jobs. DICKERSON: Right, go into the black market. Quickly, a teenager was arrested when ICE was looking for his father, couldn’t find the father, arrested him instead. What happened? MONTOYA-GALVEZ: That’s right, so we know an 18-year-old in Massachusetts was detained by ICE just this past weekend in Milford. And according to his family, he has no criminal record in the U.S. and has been living here for most of his life, about 13 years. And those are characteristics, John, that traditionally would refrain, or make ICE refrain, rather, from arresting somebody. But under this administration, they have made it very clear that anyone who is here illegally, it’s fair game to be arrested and deported from the country. DICKERSON: Camilo Montoya-Galvez, thank you, as always. CBS Mornings Plus 6/4/2025 9:10 a.m. Eastern ADRIANNA DIAZ: A Massachusetts town is rallying around a high school student arrested by ICE Saturday while on his way to volleyball practice. Officials admit 18 year old Marcelo Gomes Da Silva was not their target, but he is still in ICE custody. There have been protests since the arrest, including a walkout at the school where he is a popular student. Lilia Luciano is following the case. Lilia, good morning. LILIA LUCIANO: Good morning to you, Adriana. An attorney for Gomes Da Silva told us that he came to the U.S. from Brazil when he was seven years old, and until recently, he was here on a student visa, but that lapsed. Now, even though ICE agents weren't even looking for the high school junior and AP student, according to the attorney, he still faces removal proceedings.  [CUTS TO VIDEO] PROTESTORS: Free Marcello! Free Marcello! Free Marcello! LUCIANO: Students at Milford high school staged a walkout Monday to protest the arrest of their classmate, 18 year old Marcelo Gomes Da Silva, as part of an ICE operation over the weekend. His cousin, Julia Sampaio was at the scene.  JULIA SAMPAIO: He was telling ice agents that he's a kid. He needs to go back to school. He wants to get his homework done, you know. LUCIANO: Gomes Da Silva was arrested Saturday morning. ICE agents say in a vehicle registered to his father, who was, in their words, their target. The high school junior was on his way to volleyball practice. PATRICIA HYDE (ICE ERO Boston, acting field office director): He's 18 years old. He's unlawfully in this country. And unfortunately, we had to go to Milford to look for someone else and we came across him and he was arrested. TODD LYONS (ICE, acting director): And I will say his dad hasn't turned himself in yet, and his dad knows he's the target of it. LUCIANO: Now, Gomes Da Silva is being held at an ICE processing center in Burlington, Massachusetts. Attorney Robin Nice Is representing him. ROBIN NICE: His first words out of his mouth were, it’s horrible. I want to get out of here.  LUCIANO: Nice said her client first came to the U.S. from Brazil on a visitor's visa in 2013, and it later became a student visa, which expired several years ago.  People hearing his story might think, well, he is undocumented. What's the problem with his deportation? NICE: I would tell those people that there is a process for this. There is no reason whatsoever why a kid with no criminal record should be detained. You can absolutely do removal, initiate removal proceedings without detaining someone. [CUTS BACK TO LIVE] LUCIANO: Gomes Da Silva's attorney, told us that he will appear in court tomorrow for what's called an introductory hearing to start the removal process. He will also have his bond hearing, where a judge will evaluate whether Gomes Da Silva can be released from custody in the meantime. Tony. TONY DOKOUPIL: Lilia, thank you very much.

The U.S. Supreme Court issued a unanimous ruling Thursday against the claims in a lawsuit from the Mexican government alleging that gun manufacturers were complicit in arms smuggling. The Mexican government says that gun manufacturers in the U.S. were looking the other way as their guns illegally ended up crossing the border and getting in the hands of dangerous drug cartels. 'We have little doubt that, as the complaint asserts, some such sales take place — and that the manufacturers know they do. But still, Mexico has not adequately pleaded what it needs to.' Mexico's attorneys pointed out that guns were severely restricted there, but the country was still awash in guns. "You can't hide behind the middleman and pretend like you don't know what's happening," said Jonathan Lowy, the president of Global Action on Gun Violence and co-counsel for Mexico. National Shooting Sports Foundation attorney Lawrence Keane offered a clever analogy to dismantle the accusation from the Mexican government. He said that if a "lawful distribution system that's approved under federal law" was the evidence for aiding and abetting gun smuggling, then that principle would apply to alcohol sales as well. "If that was all that was required, Budweiser would be responsible for drunk driving accidents all across the United States, and apparently including Mexico," said Keane. The Supreme Court unanimously agreed and shot down Mexico's lawsuit.

"We have little doubt that, as the complaint asserts, some such sales take place — and that the manufacturers know they do," she added. "But still, Mexico has not adequately pleaded what it needs to."The lawsuit was originally filed in 2021 against Smith & Wesson, Colt, Glock, and other manufacturers. Mexico was seeking $10 billion in damages. Like Blaze News? Bypass the censors, sign up for our newsletters, and get stories like this direct to your inbox. Sign up here!

CNN: Trump Admin Often ‘Shoots Itself’ in the Foot With Its Shoot-First Style

In-N-Out Burger Fan Account Weighs in on the Day's Big Drama

Apple might want to consider moving up its WWDC 2025 keynote, because the internet seems intent on spoiling every announcement ahead of time. After spilling the beans about iOS 26 app upgrades and new features for AirPods earlier this week, 9to5Mac returned on Thursday with a fresh leak about watchOS 26. Third-party widgets in watchOS 26 watchOS 11's Smart Stack. Image source: José Adorno for BGR Citing a reliable source, 9to5Mac says that watchOS 26 will give third-party app developers the ability to put widgets in Control Center on Apple Watch. Plus, the source says the layout will be "fully customizable" in the Watch app on iPhone, allowing Apple Watch owners to add, remove, and reorder widgets directly from their smartphones. watchOS 11, last year's update for Apple's wearable OS, gave widgets on Apple Watch a major overhaul. In addition to adding widgets for severe weather alerts, Photos, and Shazam, widgets also started showing up automatically in the Smart Stack. This was a step in the right direction, but it was also a rather limited implementation of widgets, especially compared to what we see in iOS and iPadOS. Potentially game-changing As an Apple Watch owner myself, I've always found the device to be relatively limited beyond its exercise and health-tracking features. For many, those use cases are enough, but this opens the door to so much more functionality than was previously available. We don't know exactly what this implementation is going to look like, nor do we know if it will be ready in time for the launch of watchOS 26 this fall. The good news is that we won't have to wait much longer to find out, as Apple will take the virtual stage on June 9th at 10:00 a.m. PT / 1:00 p.m. ET to tell us all about its upcoming software updates. Don't Miss: If the iPhone’s Mail app is giving you issues, you’re not the only one The post watchOS 26 will bring third-party widgets to Control Center, leak claims appeared first on BGR.

President Donald Trump privately admired Ukraine’s drone attack on a fleet of Russian warplanes last weekend, telling confidants it was "strong" and "badass," Axios reported Thursday.

The suspect in a Molotov cocktail attack on a Jewish protest march in Colorado appeared in court Thursday facing more than 100 criminal counts over an assault that injured 15 people.
