A mother is speaking out after learning that the alleged sex offender who preyed upon her 13-year-old daughter was an illegal immigrant set free by local authorities who chose not to notify U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement. The Trump administration recently brought the case to light after launching mass deportation raids in Charlotte. While exposing local authorities for setting illegal immigrants free, the Department of Homeland Security highlighted the case of Costa Rican illegal immigrant Jordan Renato Castillo-Chavez, 29, as one out of roughly 1,400 cases in Charlotte where local cops refused to honor federal immigration detainers. “It’s hurtful that my child is a victim and they had this person and let him go,” the victim’s mother, Misha Rose, whose own father was deported from the United States after committing a crime, told WSOC. “This is serious … we need justice, he needs to go,” she said as she fought back tears. Jordan Renato Castillo-Chavez was released after North Carolina authorities failed to honor the ICE detainer.

But he later bonded out of custody. “There was this message from this guy, and I was like, ‘Who is this?’ and she was like, ‘Oh, that’s my friend, I just met him online.’ And I looked at the messages, there were photos, there were messages that indicated he was like coming to pick her up, and I immediately just like dropped, like I fainted, like this is not happening right now,” Rose recalled. The Department of Homeland Security said local authorities failed to honor their detainer request to hand over the illegal immigrant if he was to be released. The Mecklenburg County sheriff’s office, however, claims that ICE made a request for advanced notice of Castillo-Chavez’s release, but never issued a formal detainer, according to WSOC. The sheriff’s office said they never notified federal immigration agents because there was no legal requirement in place. Meanwhile, the Trump administration continues its deployment of Border Patrol agents to Charlotte to clean up the mess created by sanctuary policies. The feds have already made over 200 arrests since the operation began over the weekend. “Americans should be able to live without fear of violent criminal illegal aliens hurting them, their families, or their neighbors,” Assistant Homeland Security Secretary Tricia McLaughlin said recently of the operation. “There have been too many victims of criminal illegal aliens. President Trump and Secretary Noem will step up to protect Americans when sanctuary politicians won’t,” she said.

News Wuthering Heights Emerald Fennell Confirms Her Wuthering Heights Movie Isn’t Exactly What It Seems The word “disemboweling” is used in a Fennell quote in a way it has never been used before. By Molly Templeton | Published on November 21, 2025 Image: Warner Bros. Comment 0 Share New Share Image: Warner Bros. The latest trailer for Emerald Fennell’s take on Wuthering Heights was … well, it was something. The movie has the title in quotation marks, so it’s really “Wuthering Heights” this time. But why, punctuation pedants (implicating myself here), wanted to know? Well, we may have a small hint. Along with writing and directing the film, Fennell has “curated” a new edition of the novel for Simon & Schuster’s Female Filmmakers Collection. It is less than clear what this means, other than picking a slightly perplexing cover image (most of the Reactor staff initially thought the image, below, was more gynecological than equine-related) and writing a foreword. According to The Hollywood Reporter, “each volume will be curated by a different director, tasked with curating a movie-inspired cover, writing a new foreword, and imbuing the paperback with cinematic references and Easter eggs.” In her foreword, Fennell writes of the novel, “It is too slippery, too wild, too good to distill into two hours of film. Instead what I have attempted to do is adapt my own experience of reading it for the first time. It is an adaptation of a feeling: my first disemboweling by the baby god.” My first disemboweling by the baby god. Just sit with that for a minute. If Fennell is not actually doing a straight adaptation of Emily Brontë’s book—a theory that was already floating around out there—then it helps make sense of a few of the things in the trailer, including the quotation marks and the age of at least one of the stars. The text along with the trailer does note that the film is “inspired by the greatest love story of all time,” and “inspired by” is not the same as “based on,” though either way I take issue with the rest of that sentence. “Wuthering Heights,” which stars Margot Robbie and Jacob Elordi, is in theaters February 14, 2026. The not-a-tie-in edition of the novel arrives on shelves a bit earlier, on February 3. Surely fans will be scouring its references for hints as to what Fennell is doing.[end-mark] The post Emerald Fennell Confirms Her <i>Wuthering Heights</i> Movie Isn’t Exactly What It Seems appeared first on Reactor.

A vote to condemn the “horrors of socialism” passed on a mostly party-line vote Friday, with 98 Democrats voting against it and 199 Republicans voting for it. The bill passed 285-98. No Republicans voted against the bill, although 20 Republicans did not vote. On the Democrat side, it was far from unanimous, with 86 members voting in favor, and 98 against. Two Democrats voted “present” and 27 did not vote. The resolution, sponsored by Rep. Maria Elvira Salazar, R-Fla., reads “socialism has repeatedly led to famine and mass murders, and the killing of over 100,000,000 people worldwide,” and recognizes “many of the greatest crimes in history were committed by socialist ideologues.” This morning, the House will vote on my resolution condemning the horrors of socialism and the urgency could not be greater.My resolution lays out undeniable historical FACTS:100 million+ lives destroyed under socialist regimes.Stalin, Mao, Castro — socialist ideologues who…— Rep. María Elvira Salazar (@RepMariaSalazar) November 21, 2025 Salazar is of a Cuban-American background and represents a Miami area district. The resolution culminates in the commitment “that Congress denounces socialism in all its forms, and opposes the implementation of socialist policies in the United States.” “Socialism has never produced freedom or prosperity, only suffering and authoritarian control. Those of us in South Florida understand this better than most,” Salazar said of the resolution in a post on X. “With this failed ideology gaining ground in the United States and throughout the hemisphere, I’m proud to lead this resolution and call out its dangers without hesitation.” After the vote, Rep. Andy Biggs, R-Ariz., wrote on X, “100 Democrats just refused to condemn the horrors of socialism. There were no poison pills in this resolution. There are 100+ socialism sympathizers in the United States House of Representatives. Despicable.” To those asking for the names: https://t.co/sQAm3s8fXc pic.twitter.com/VLmi2m1eAr— Rep Andy Biggs (@RepAndyBiggsAZ) November 21, 2025 The same resolution passed the House comfortably in 2023 by a 328-86 vote, with Democrats split roughly evenly on the resolution. It was not considered in the Senate. Ahead of the vote, Rep. French Hill, R-Ark., and House rules committee ranking member Rep. Jim McGovern, D-Mass., had a dispute over the meaning of the resolution.  WATCH: Chairman @RepFrenchHill speak in support of @RepMariaSalazar's resolution before @RulesReps to denounce socialism in all forms. "Time and time again, socialist policies have failed, resulting in unimaginable suffering for nations and millions of people across the globe." pic.twitter.com/IT8YCvT4SJ— Financial Services GOP (@FinancialCmte) November 17, 2025 McGovern said the bill “doesn’t have a definition of socialism,” and questioned Hill on whether Medicare could be considered socialist. “Yes, some people could consider it a too much state control, that’s right,” Hill responded. Sen. Rick Scott, R-Fla., introduced the Senate version of the resolution. “Time and time again, socialism has led to the same, inevitable outcomes: misery, poverty, and oppression,” Scott said in a statement this September. “It’s despicable to see far-left radicals villainizing capitalism – a system that has helped billions of American achieve their dreams – and try to tear down our country and rebuild it in their woke, radical image through socialist policies.” This is a breaking news story and it may be updated.
