It’s hard to keep track of all the immigration cases that blew up once President Trump started securing our borders and enforcing U.S. immigration law only three months ago.
The latest <a href="https://www.documentcloud.org/documents/25897170-chnvparole041425/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">decision</a> by Massachusetts District Court judge Indira Talwani was an unjustified and baseless nationwide injunction blocking Trump’s decision last month to <a href="https://www.foxnews.com/politics/trump-admin-pulling-legal-status-more-than-530k-migrants" target="_blank" rel="noopener">end the parole status</a> for half a million Cuban, Haitian, Nicaraguan, and Venezuelan nationals.
Nationwide injunctions by federal judges are based on dubious authority and threaten the separation of powers doctrine in the Constitution – the checks and balances that hold this nation together. The sooner Congress and the Supreme Court implement and enforce clear limits on this, the better.
But it’s not just the sweeping executive power that Judge Talwani, an Obama appointee, asserts is the problem. It’s also the bewildering double-standard applied to the Biden and Trump administrations on immigration.
Americans want to believe that once appointed, judges do their best to follow the Constitution and the law. But it gets harder each time we see a ruling that stretches logic and law to reach a conclusion that aligns with politics. We’ve seen so many in the past few years, including the many “<a href="https://www.wsj.com/video/series/wonder-land-henninger/wsj-opinion-the-high-price-of-democrats-anti-trump-lawfare/04D0426F-2196-433D-B6FF-56BCA3688D79?mod=bizbuysell_trending_now_video_pos1" target="_blank" rel="noopener">lawfare</a>” cases brought against President Trump since his first term.
Let’s get our heads around immigration parole. Aliens who want to come to the U.S. need a visa. In exceptional cases, Congress provided a <a href="https://uscode.house.gov/view.xhtml?req=granuleid:USC-prelim-title8-section1182&amp;num=0&amp;edition=prelim" target="_blank" rel="noopener">limited power</a> for the executive (exercised by the President through his Secretary of Homeland Security) to parole aliens for limited periods. When that period ends, they go back to whatever status they had before.
In 1996, Congress tightened the rules, clarifying that parole could only be granted on a “case-by-case basis,” and strictly “for urgent humanitarian reasons” or a “significant public benefit.” Parole isn’t a path to permanent status.
Blatantly violating the clear limits set by Congress, Biden perverted parole to invent a slew of “McVisa” programs to benefit groups he liked and to bypass numerical caps.
Biden’s DHS started paroling illegal aliens caught at the border, arguing that they didn’t have room to detain them. This <a href="https://cis.org/Arthur/Federal-Judge-Vacates-Bidens-ParoleATD-Border-Release-Policy" target="_blank" rel="noopener">“Parole+ATD”</a> was shut down by a federal judge who <a href="https://legacy.myfloridalegal.com/webfiles.nsf/WF/GPEY-CPQPAB/%24file/final%20order.pdf" target="_blank" rel="noopener">found</a> the president didn’t have the authority to give illegal aliens a free pass into the country.
In August 2021, Biden invented Operation Allies Welcome to let in thousands of Afghans. In theory, these were supposed to be the ones who’d helped the U.S. and whose lives might be in danger under the Taliban, but in practice, many got in through fraud or had nothing to do with our efforts in their country. Some were even criminals and suspected terrorists.
Then in April 2022, Biden <a href="https://www.dhs.gov/ukraine" target="_blank" rel="noopener">began</a> a Uniting for Ukraine program to bring people in from that country, even though (a) you might wonder why the men weren’t home fighting Russia, and (b) why they could not have claimed asylum in neighboring European countries instead of the U.S.
In January 2023, Biden <a href="https://www.whitehouse.gov/briefing-room/statements-releases/2023/01/05/fact-sheet-biden-harris-administration-announces-new-border-enforcement-actions/">rolled out</a> a Cuban, Haitian, Nicaraguan, and Venezuelan Parole program allowing up to 30,000 nationals from those four countries per month to enter the U.S.
Then he added up to 1,400 appointments a day for nationals of any country to schedule their illegal entry into the U.S. using the <a href="https://cis.org/Arthur/Whats-Biden-Doing-Migrants-Ports-Entry">CBP One</a> phone app, as long as they claimed to be in Mexico. Nearly all of them ended up getting <a href="https://cis.org/Arthur/958-Percent-Illegal-Migrants-Who-Preschedule-Their-Illegal-Entries-Are-Allowed">paroled</a> once they showed up at a U.S. port of entry.
Finally, in June 2024, Biden tried but failed to give a de facto amnesty via parole to over a million illegal aliens who were married to American citizens. Who knows how far a “President Harris” could have continued with parole-a-palooza, had she won.
All told, Biden used bogus parole programs to bring in over 1.5 million inadmissible illegal aliens.
Even though the law specifically says a president can’t use parole to bypass the U.S. official refugee program, that was clearly the intent. The Biden administration expected them all to claim asylum and live here while their cases dragged on for years or decades. But not all of them bothered to make that claim, figuring parole would just be extended. Bad bet.
Trump revoked the CHNV parole – as was his rightful power as president – in March. What Biden did, even if it wasn’t right, Trump had the power to undo.
For Judge Talwani to now tell Trump he can’t revoke parole for 530,000 paroled CHNV nationals without a “case-by-case” review is rich indeed. Does she seriously think that every one of the 30,000 CHNV applicants Biden let in per month was examined and approved on a “case-by-case” basis? Sure, if we say every fan let into Yankee Stadium for a game has been admitted “case-by-case.” If it simply means ‘one-by-one’, then Secretary of Homeland Security Noem can certify that, and it will be just as true as it was when former Secretary Mayorkas did.
Federal immigration law is very clear that the president has wide discretion to deny or revoke visas and remove aliens on national security or discretionary grounds. He can do or undo parole as well.
Joe Biden violated the law when he provided mass parole to hundreds of thousands of illegal aliens. No judge should be able to stop a successor president from undoing the harm a prior president has done, particularly harm that was done by ignoring, twisting, and breaking the law.

Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) officers in Boston, Massachusetts, reportedly claimed that illegal immigrant offenders were being put back on the streets after being slapped with &#8220;ridiculously low bail&#8221; despite the fact that the charges against them included violent sex crimes involving children, according to Fox News reporter Bill Melugin.
Melugin shared details uncovered in a CBS Boston <a href="https://www.cbsnews.com/boston/news/massachusetts-immigrants-charged-violent-crimes/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">investigation</a> that he said proved those allegations to be true.
&#8220;NEW: CBS looked into ICE Boston claims that illegal aliens charged w/ child rape in MA are repeatedly being released from jail w/ ridiculously low bail. They found that yes, they are, including the following in recent months,&#8221; Melugin began before laying out a partial list of what had been discovered: &#8220;Guatemalan charged w/ 3 counts of aggravated child rape released on $7,500 bail. (ICE detainer ignored); Guatemalan charged w/ aggravated child rape, (victim age 9 or below) released on $7,500 bail. (ICE detainer ignored); Honduran charged w/ assault to rape &amp; masked armed robbery released on his own recognizance with $0 bail. (ICE detainer ignored); Worcester County had two illegal alien inmates charged w/ child rape who both received $500 bails; Another was charged w/ fentanyl trafficking and released on $4,000 bond before ICE could arrive.&#8221;

Border czar Tom Homan had put a spotlight on Boston during the Conservative Political Action Conference, telling Boston Police Commissioner Michael Cox, &#8220;You&#8217;re not a police commissioner. Take that badge off your chest. Put it in the desk drawer.&#8221;
Homan said at the time that Boston authorities were releasing illegal immigrant offenders back into the community despite ICE detainers ordering them to cooperate with federal immigration authorities.
A Massachusetts state law barring illegal immigrants from being held solely on the basis of their immigration status has muddied the waters some, especially after the Massachusetts Supreme Judicial Court ruled in 2017 that illegal immigrant offenders could not be held once they posted bail — even if there was an ICE detainer involved — pursuant to that law (Lunn v. Commonwealth).
&#8220;Massachusetts law provides no authority for Massachusetts court officers to arrest and hold an individual solely on the basis of a Federal civil immigration detainer, beyond the time that the individual would otherwise be entitled to be released from State custody,&#8221; the ruling stated.

A pizza shop owner is getting mixed reviews for kicking out a family that was dining in his restaurant recently, with some online critics saying he had every right to do it while others are outraged.
Dragon Pizza in Somerville, Massachusetts, became the topic of heated debate following the March 14 incident and subsequent social media posts. 
The owner recently shared an <a href="https://www.instagram.com/p/DHPnJmjst6c/">update via Instagram</a>, writing, “To all our guests with children: Anyone who has visited our restaurant knows we are a pizza shop that loves kids.”
“Sadly, we had to demand a group of negligent parents Friday to take their families home because they were disrespecting our dining room, other guests, and our team,” the post continued. 
“Our restaurant, or any restaurant, is not a place for unsupervised children to play,&#8221; it said. &#8220;It is here to share dining experiences.”
Dragon Pizza listed six points on the incident, noting that they “welcome all children dining in our restaurant with open arms” and “we do not appreciate parents who treat our pizza as a cheap, simple option to feed their children until they can have their own dinner.” 
The post concluded by saying, “It makes us very sad, but we refuse to allow entitled lazy parents to damage our reputation and the overall dining experience for all our guests. Respect restaurants. Bring your family to them. Raise your family in them. We are your community too.”
Restaurant owner Charlie Redd <a href="https://www.boston.com/food/food-news/2025/03/18/dragon-pizza-guests-with-kids/">said</a> in an interview with Boston.com that he is also a father and wants to make guests with children &#8220;comfortable.&#8221;
“It’s part of my philosophy to hospitality, for restaurants to engage everyone,&#8221; he told the outlet. &#8220;We’ve been very successful here at Dragon accommodating groups with kids.”
“The fault lies where the parents had to be spoken to multiple times and were ignoring our requests and our instructions to watch their kids,” Redd said. “Kids belong in restaurants. It’s a lot of fun.”
While many supported the restaurant in the comments, others questioned the decision to kick the family out.
“Why can’t parents give their kids pizza as a cheap easy option?” one Instagram commenter wrote, referencing one of the points made in the restaurant’s original post.
“Too many parents these days don’t understand that they need to actually parent their children. Good on you for sticking up for your staff and other patrons,” another person wrote.
Barstool Sports founder Dave Portnoy, who had a run-in with Redd in the past, also weighed in on the situation with a profanity-laced <a href="https://x.com/stoolpresidente/status/1902400901928657073">post</a> on X that read, in part, “This has created quite the (conundrum) for yours truly because I absolutely despise this dude (Charlie) Redd.&#8221;
“He probably blew this out of proportion because this guy just likes being an a**hole. This guy is a professional a**hole. There’s no other pizza place that keeps ending up in the news,” he went on.
Portnoy got into an argument with Redd in 2023 while visiting the restaurant for his popular One Bite Challenge, which involves him rating pizzerias. The social media personality described the slice as “super floppy” and gave it a 6.4 out of 10. 
The owner told Portnoy he was in the wrong for “judging a business with one bite.” This led to a heated exchange that <a href="https://www.nbcboston.com/news/local/barstools-dave-portnoy-speaks-out-about-dragon-pizza-feud-its-like-living-in-a-bizarre-world/3130297/">went viral</a> at the time.

Harvard University announced this week that it would offer free tuition for any student attending whose family makes less than $200,000 a year starting in the 2025-26 academic year.
Additionally, the institution said that students enrolled whose families have an annual income of $100,000 or less will be offered free housing, food, and health services.
Currently, it costs $56,550 a year to attend the school. Adding housing, food, and health services brings that total to $82,866, per the university.
&#8220;Putting Harvard within financial reach for more individuals widens the array of backgrounds, experiences, and perspectives that all of our students encounter, fostering their intellectual and personal growth,&#8221; Harvard University President Alan M. Garber said in a statement. &#8220;By bringing people of outstanding promise together to learn with and from one another, we truly realize the tremendous potential of the University.&#8221;
About 55% of Harvard undergraduates receive financial aid, <a href="https://abcnews.go.com/Business/harvard-tuition-families-making-200k/story?id=119874241">ABC News</a> noted.
&#8220;We know the most talented students come from different socioeconomic backgrounds and experiences, from every state and around the globe,&#8221; William R. Fitzsimmons, Harvard College’s dean of admissions and financial aid, said in a statement. &#8220;Our financial aid is critical to ensuring that these students know Harvard College is a place where they can be part of a vibrant learning community strengthened by their presence and participation.&#8221;
The new plan means that about 86% of United States families would qualify for financial aid from Harvard if accepted for admission. Most recently, the Ivy League school accepted 3.59% of the 54,000 applicants for the Class of 2028.
Harvard University’s Republican Club has seen an increase in signups recently, saying the group has quadrupled the number of members last year. The club previously had 40 to 50 active members.
“Harvard Republicans are thriving, something that couldn’t happen four years ago,” Harvard Republican Club President Michael Oved <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/harvard-republican-club-says-enrollment-is-booming-as-members-proudly-share-beliefs">told</a> The Daily Wire in September. “We no longer hide our Republican views, we embrace them. We wear it on our sleeves, proudly and people see that, and they become encouraged to do the same.”
This update comes as the university has been mired in controversy due to the administration’s and left-wing student groups’ reaction to Hamas’ October 7 brutal attack on Israeli civilians.

Scott Hayes, 48, says he will likely have to go to trial for shooting an anti-Israel man who tackled him after a district attorney backed away from finalizing a disposition to resolve the case outside the courtroom.
Hayes was charged with assault and battery with a dangerous weapon and released on a $5,000 bail on September 13 after he shot Caleb Gannon, who charged through traffic and tackled Hayes in Newton, Massachusetts. Hayes pleaded not guilty and said shooting Gannon in the stomach was an act of self-defense.
“I am demanding a trial because the district attorney’s office continues to miss deadlines, go back on agreements, and play with my life,” Hayes said. “If they think they have a strong case — which they don’t — I’ll see you in court.”
Hayes, <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/disabled-veteran-loses-job-after-shooting-anti-israel-attacker">who lost his job</a> over the incident, spent the last few months working out terms with the office of Middlesex County District Attorney Marian Ryan. According to Hayes, Ryan’s office and Hayes’ legal team worked out terms for a “pretrial probation” (PTB) with no admission of liability, which would suspend Hayes’ license to carry during the period and require him to complete a de-escalation course and stay away from Gannon.
The point of contention is whether Hayes should stay out of Newton, the town where Gannon resides. Hayes believes that the condition is unnecessary, and that he should not have to stay out of the major Boston suburb, where he has many friends. The two sides were supposed to argue to a judge on Tuesday, until Hayes’ lawyer was informed that the DA’s office cancelled the hearing.
Ryan’s office ignored requests about the reason for the cancellation of the meeting on Tuesday and instead said the case hearing is scheduled for March 20.
Immediately after his release on bail, Hayes was required to wear a GPS ankle monitor, which flagged him several times for violating the stay-out-of-Newton order each time he traveled on the Mass Pike (I-90) for doctor appointments, as the highway runs through Newton. In October, a judge removed the ankle monitor requirement and his restrictions from being in Newton.
“It’s absurd that they want to now restrict me from Newton while I have been free to travel there for five months without any incidents,” Hayes told The Daily Wire.
In a video obtained by The Daily Wire, Gannon is seen yelling at the pro-Israel protesters Hayes was with at a busy intersection and accusing them of “supporting genocide.” He then began to charge across the street until Hayes stepped onto the street with the hand on his waistband, where his lawfully possessed firearm was secured in a holster under his shirt, according to a motion filed by Hayes’ attorney. 
“Hayes did not brandish or even remove his gun from this holster, yet Gannon knew that Hayes had a gun, shouting ‘Are you carrying a f***ing gun?” the motion reads. “Hayes acknowledged that he did have a gun.”
Gannon backed away while making obscene gestures, while Hayes started to dial 911 on his phone. This is when Gannon rushed through traffic and tackled Hayes, as caught on a video <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/exclusive-man-with-pro-palestinian-pin-shot-after-tackling-pro-israel-veteran">provided to The Daily Wire</a>.

According to court documents, Hayes was face down on the sidewalk while Gannon was on top of him and choking him with his right arm, while trying to reach for Hayes’ gun with his left. Hayes then unholstered his gun and fired one shot at Gannon’s midsection. The documents go on to claim that Gannon still tried to grab Hayes’ gun after being shot and at one point “was able to turn the gun barrel toward Hayes’ face.”
In another video after the incident, Hayes used his military training to give first aid to Gannon while telling bystanders to call 911.

“I don’t condemn Hamas. I condemn my family,” Gannon wrote in one post about the terrorist group that killed, raped, or took hostage over 1,000 citizens from Israel on October 7.

Though not Jewish, Hayes says he believes it’s important to use his voice to call for the release of the 101 hostages held by Hamas in Gaza and to stand up to anti-Semitism in the United States.
“If my life has to be ruined for trying to help the Jewish people to survive, then that’s the price,” he told The Daily Wire. “It’s a much bigger issue than me. What happened to me brought a lot of local Jewish people together and got them out and active because of the reality of what’s happening.”

A major court has ruled that parents don’t have the right to know that their child is changing genders while at school.
The <a href="https://www.ca1.uscourts.gov/sites/ca1/files/opnfiles/23-1069P-01A.pdf" target="_blank" rel="noopener">opinion</a>, from the First Circuit Court of Appeals, determined that it does not violate parental rights for a school to transition a child without the parents’ knowledge.
“[P]arental rights are not unlimited,” the court ruled. “Parents may not invoke the Due Process Clause to create a preferred educational experience for their child in public school.”
“As per our understanding of Supreme Court precedent, our pluralistic society assigns those curricular and administrative decisions to the expertise of school officials, charged with the responsibility of educating children,” the court continued. “And the Protocol of nondisclosure as to a student&#8217;s at-school gender expression without the student&#8217;s consent does not restrict parental rights in a way courts have recognized as a violation of the guarantees of substantive due process.”
The decision comes from a case in Massachusetts, where in 2020 a Baird Middle School student referred to in court documents as B.F. began questioning her identity after she received “unsolicited LGBTQ-themed video suggestions” on her school-issued computer. The student, in sixth grade at the time, was given an assignment along with her fellow students to create biographic videos about themselves and to include their pronouns in those videos.
It is unknown how B.F. referred to herself in the assignment, but in the following months, she began receiving the “unsolicited LGBTQ-themed video suggestions” and started questioning whether she &#8220;might be attracted to girls&#8221; and if she had gender identity issues, according to court documents.
By December 2020, B.F. told her teacher that she was “depressed and struggling with insecurity, low self-esteem, poor self-image, and a perceived lack of popularity.” The teacher told B.F.’s parents, Marissa Silvestri and Stephen Foote, what their daughter had said, and the parents agreed to get her the help she needed.
But on February 28, 2021, B.F. announced to her teacher and other school officials that she was “genderqueer” and would use her preferred pronouns and go by a new name. B.F. told school officials that she hadn’t explained this all to her parents yet and asked that she be referred to by her birth name and proper pronouns when discussing things with her parents. Teachers immediately switched to the new name and pronouns, and the school librarian started meeting with the student to talk to her about gender identity and to give her “LGBTQ-related resources,” according to court documents. The school counselor also told the girl she could use whichever bathroom she wanted at the school.
At the same time, B.F.’s 12-year-old sibling also suddenly decided to start using a different name and pronouns.
The parents learned in early March 2021 – just days after B.F.’s declaration – learned about her new name and pronouns from her teacher. The parents spoke with the school principal and superintendent to express concern that school officials had ignored their request not to engage with their child “regarding mental health issues.” When the parents eventually sued the school and its officials, they argued that transitioning the child at school amounted to mental health treatment because social transitioning is &#8220;recognized as a medical/mental health treatment for children with gender dysphoria.&#8221;
Educators at Baird ignored the parents and continued to refer to B.F. by her new name and pronouns. The school counselor also contacted the student through text messages and online chat to keep encouraging B.F. to discuss any gender-related concerns on a weekly basis. At one point, the counselor asked B.F. if her parents were providing her “with appropriate care.” The counselor also asked if B.F. felt comfortable discussing these issues with the counselor her parents were paying for.
When the parents sued, the school district moved to dismiss the case, and the case eventually moved forward to the First Circuit, which ruled the parents had no right to know that the school was transitioning their child behind their back.
The First Circuit’s ruling is filled with biased language, using “they/them” pronouns for B.F. because is it allegedly “gender neutral.”
As Frederick Claybrook, Jr., <a href="https://fedsoc.org/commentary/fedsoc-blog/wrong-foote-forward-first-circuit-tramples-parental-rights">noted in an article</a> for The Federalist Society — an organization that supports limited government — this is the first time a federal court of appeals has waded into parental rights when it comes to transgender issues. Until now, Claybrook states, the courts &#8220;have dodged&#8221; the issue as it relates to parental rights.
“When district courts have ruled in favor of parents, for example in a <a href="https://adflegal.org/wp-content/uploads/2022/05/Ricard-v-475-Geary-County-Schools-2022-05-09-Memorandum-and-Order.pdf" target="_blank" rel="noopener">District of Kansas case</a> and in a <a href="https://casetext.com/case/mirabelli-v-olson">Southern District of California case</a>, the school districts have not appealed,” Claybrook writes. “When parents have lost, for example in <a href="https://casetext.com/case/parents-v-montgomery-cnty-bd-of-educ" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Parents v. Montgomery County Board of Education</a>, they have proceeded to circuit court, but those courts to date have dodged addressing the merits.”
The Fourth and Seventh Circuits, Claybrook noted, have both ruled that parents don’t have a standing to complain schools were keeping things secret from them because they didn’t know for sure the schools were keeping things secret from them. Supreme Court Justices Samuel Alito and Clarence Thomas, who dissented from denial of certiorari in the Seventh Circuit, said that the school’s existing policy meant parents weren’t speculating about anything, and suggested circuit courts were avoiding the merits of the cases.
Jonathan Turley, a renowned law professor, <a href="https://x.com/JonathanTurley/status/1894444445656899712" target="_blank" rel="noopener">posted</a> about the First Circuit case on X, writing that there “is no more cherished right that citizens possess than raising their children.”
“Indeed, the right to raise one&#8217;s children according to your own faith and values is the touchstone of freedom,” Turley continued. “Conversely, the subordination of such rights is the harbinger of state tyranny. True pluralism allows families with different norms and values to thrive. Public schools are effectively demanding that parents give up their rights to critical aspects of rearing their children as a condition for public education. It is a virtual slogan for school choice.”

U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) in Boston apprehended an illegal immigrant from Guatemala who has been charged with raping a child.
Jose Fernando-Perez, 49, was arrested in Framingham, Massachusetts, on February 2, ICE <a href="https://www.ice.gov/news/releases/ice-boston-arrests-illegal-guatemalan-national-charged-forcibly-raping-massachusetts" target="_blank" rel="noopener">announced</a>. He had been charged with three counts of forcible rape of a child and three counts of aggravated rape of a child in 2022 but was released by a judge.
“Jose Fernando-Perez has been charged with some horrific crimes against a minor in our commonwealth,” ICE Enforcement and Removal Operations Boston acting Field Office Director Patricia H. Hyde said in the press release. “He is exactly the type of alien we are targeting with our ‘worst first’ policy. He posed a significant danger to the children of Massachusetts, and we will not tolerate such a threat to our community. ICE Boston will continue to prioritize the safety of our public by arresting and removing egregious alien offenders from our New England communities.”
It is unknown exactly when Fernando-Perez illegally entered the United States or where he crossed the border, but it is known that he wasn’t inspected, admitted, or paroled by any U.S. immigration officials, ICE said.

He was first arraigned in Lynn District Court in Massachusetts on December 6, 2005, after allegedly leaving the scene of an accident with property damage and for having inaccurate license plates. He was convicted of those charges on October 19, 2012 – nearly seven years later.
On April 19, 2022, the district court arraigned Fernando-Perez for rape of a child by force but dismissed the case because he was indicted by the superior court. ICE lodged an immigration detainer against him with the Essex County House of Correction on May 16, 2022, but the Essex County Superior Court in Salem, Massachusetts, ignored that detainer. This court arraigned Fernando-Perez on six counts pertaining to the rape of a minor but released him on pre-trial conditions on October 6, 2022, according to ICE.
The Essex County Sheriff’s Office <a href="https://www.boston25news.com/news/local/horrific-crimes-guatemalan-man-accused-multiple-counts-child-rape-arrested-by-ice-officers/QRBHFNZCDNGQPB6VHBD4CDZJOM/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">told</a> Boston 25 News that once a judge releases someone, they’re no longer in their custody, which is similar to what the Massachusetts Trial Court spokesperson told the outlet.
“In order to comply with Massachusetts law, court officers are prohibited from assisting or interfering with ICE agents in executing their obligations under Federal law,” the spokesperson told the outlet. “That means that a court officer will not interfere with ICE arresting an individual who has been released. On the other hand, court officers are prohibited from keeping a released individual in custody awaiting an ICE agent. Massachusetts Court officials do not have the authority to hold an individual in custody solely on the basis of a Federal Civil Immigration Detainer.”
After arresting Fernando-Perez, ICE served him with a notice to appear before a Department of Justice immigration judge, and he remains in ICE custody.

One of the inevitable consequences of all the lies we&#8217;ve been told lately is that you begin to question some older, historical claims that are treated as gospel. And that&#8217;s a rational response. After all, if the experts in the 21st century are willing to lie to us about pandemics and the Iraq war, then you can only imagine how many lies were being told in previous centuries, before people had access to social media. 
Seeing what happened to Donald Trump, for example, you might wonder whether Richard Nixon was really a crook. You might question whether we were told the truth about JFK&#8217;s assassination or the whole backstory that&#8217;s been created around legendary figures like Pocahontas or Harriet Tubman.
Today there&#8217;s yet another historical narrative we can add to this list. After reviewing recent events, I have come to the inescapable conclusion that we really need to take a closer look at the Salem witch trials and what they were all about. If you remember from history class, we were told that the Salem witch trials were a grave historic injustice because dozens of people in Salem were falsely accused of being insane witches. And as we all know, insane witches are not a thing, and prosecutors never should have suggested such a thing. You can&#8217;t just go around accusing people of going completely crazy because they&#8217;re under demonic influence. That would be ridiculous. And if witches and demons did exist, they certainly wouldn&#8217;t exist in a place like colonial Massachusetts, where everyone&#8217;s educated and well-spoken. So whatever trials took place were clearly null-and-void. They were a travesty of justice. That&#8217;s how we were taught to think about this whole shameful episode in United States history.
It&#8217;s an appealing line of reasoning — at least right up until the moment you see footage from this week&#8217;s city council meeting in Worcester, Massachusetts, just a short drive from Salem. 
I don&#8217;t want to overstate things here. I&#8217;m mostly going to let the footage speak for itself. And to be clear, I&#8217;m not endorsing any of the punishments that were reportedly handed out during the Salem witch trials or anything like that. All I&#8217;m saying is that, once you see this footage, you have to wonder what exactly they&#8217;re putting in the water up in that neck of the woods. It&#8217;s enough to make you rethink a lot of prior assumptions you may have had.
This footage comes from a city council meeting that lasted several hours. And it concerned a proposed resolution to declare that Worcester, Massachusetts, is a &#8220;sanctuary city for transgender and gender-fluid individuals.&#8221; It&#8217;s never really explained what exactly that means, or why it&#8217;s necessary. These people are very worried that the Trump administration is going to deport transgender and gender-fluid individuals, apparently, even though no one has suggested doing that. In fact, there have been no laws proposed anywhere by anyone that would have any impact on any of the people you’ll see in this council meeting. Yet they held a public hearing to discuss their concerns anyway. And one-by-one, they demonstrated that we are severely — and I mean really severely — underestimating the number of completely unhinged people who live in the state of Massachusetts. Whatever the estimate was, it&#8217;s far too low.
Here&#8217;s just a small part of what took place:
<iframe loading="lazy" title="001 Worcester City Council" width="500" height="281" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/ICsxQr5YGS0?feature=oembed" frameborder="0" allow="accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share" referrerpolicy="strict-origin-when-cross-origin" allowfullscreen></iframe>
&nbsp;
We say this a lot, but it really does feel like a parody. These people can&#8217;t be real. Yet they are. &#8220;I don&#8217;t want to be here,&#8221; complains the trans activist. OK, then leave. No one&#8217;s forcing you to be there. That&#8217;s how sane people handle situations they don&#8217;t want to be involved with.
But of course, from the perspective of the trans activist, they have no agency whatsoever. Everything that happens to them is the result of some nefarious outside force. They are perpetually oppressed, even when they&#8217;re making voluntary decisions to appear at city council meetings. This is one of the many reasons these people are deeply and profoundly unhappy. And as you may have just noticed, that rage often leads to violent thoughts.
If you noticed, behind all of these speakers, there&#8217;s a sign that reads, &#8220;I see you! Silence = death.&#8221; And that&#8217;s obviously an explicit threat that&#8217;s being made to the members of the Worcester city council. But just in case they didn&#8217;t get the message, the first speaker declares that the city council had better vote the right way, or else, &#8220;You better prepare for trans people to make this a very unsafe space.&#8221; And just to reiterate, this is what that speaker looked like:
<div id="attachment_877071" style="width: 689px" class="wp-caption aligncenter"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" aria-describedby="caption-attachment-877071" class="size-full wp-image-877071" src="https://dw-wp-production.imgix.net/2025/02/Gjl7ZrjXcAAd0fh.jpeg" alt="" width="679" height="380" srcset="https://dw-wp-production.imgix.net/2025/02/Gjl7ZrjXcAAd0fh.jpeg 679w, https://dw-wp-production.imgix.net/2025/02/Gjl7ZrjXcAAd0fh-300x168.jpeg 300w" sizes="(max-width: 679px) 100vw, 679px" />Screenshot: YouTube/City of Worcester</div>
She looks like a Scooby Doo villain. Not very threatening, but still the sort of person who, if you see them in public, your first move is to cross the street and keep some distance. Anyone who chooses to dress like a demonically possessed department store mannequin is clearly not the sort of person you want to consort with.
Again, just to be clear, this city council meeting is about a meaningless resolution to declare Worcester a &#8220;sanctuary city&#8221; for transgenderism. This is a resolution that doesn&#8217;t affect the law in any way. It doesn&#8217;t give any new protections to anyone. It doesn&#8217;t change day-to-day life at all, for anyone. But trans activists were threatening the city council over it. And as the meeting continued, their behavior became even more irate and more unhinged. Watch:
<iframe loading="lazy" title="003 Woman Rages and Crazy Man" width="500" height="281" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/p0ck6q64R6w?feature=oembed" frameborder="0" allow="accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share" referrerpolicy="strict-origin-when-cross-origin" allowfullscreen></iframe>
&nbsp;
I think he just said, &#8220;I speak as someone who is afraid to use public toilets.&#8221; And he delivered that line with no sense of irony or hesitation or shame or anything, like it&#8217;s part of his identity, or some kind of advanced qualification. Someone else might say, &#8220;I speak as a doctor,&#8221; or &#8220;I speak as an experienced plumber.” But not this guy. He speaks as someone who is &#8220;afraid to use public toilets.&#8221; So quiet down and listen to what he&#8217;s about to say. 
Frankly it&#8217;s a line worth talking about because it does suggest that — at least in this guy&#8217;s case — there&#8217;s a chance his problem can be solved pretty easily. Obviously everyone&#8217;s going to keep calling him &#8220;sir&#8221; because he&#8217;s a male. That particular issue is a non-starter. But the toilet problem could just be a dietary thing. After all, pretty much every adult male has been afraid to use a public toilet at one time or another. Maybe the root of the problem is that the public toilets in Worcester don&#8217;t flush properly or something. In any event this is clearly an issue that demands more investigation.
At the same time, this footage is also proof that the federal government should stop funding the city of Worcester, Massachusetts, immediately. If anyone from DOGE is listening, this is a pretty obvious place to make cuts. The Second Congressional District in Massachusetts, which includes the city of Worcester, <a href="https://www.worcesterma.gov/announcements/worcester-receives-2m-federal-funding-for-mill-st.-improvements">received</a> more than $20 million from the federal government in the last fiscal year alone. Several million of your taxpayer dollars went to alleged improvements on something called &#8220;Mill Street&#8221; in Worcester, including the establishment of even more bike lanes that interrupt the flow of traffic. None of this funding should continue, obviously. There was no reason for it in the first place. And there&#8217;s certainly no reason for it, now that we know Worcester is essentially an open-air asylum.
There was one more moment from this city council meeting I want to highlight. And this is, genuinely, one of the most disturbing pieces of footage that you will ever see. Trans activists handed a script to a 7-year-old child (we’ve blurred his face), who was wearing a &#8220;Land Back&#8221; shirt with an upside-down American flag on it. Here&#8217;s that moment:
<iframe loading="lazy" title="004 Kid Speaks" width="500" height="281" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/LZZ6KLSEyUQ?feature=oembed" frameborder="0" allow="accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share" referrerpolicy="strict-origin-when-cross-origin" allowfullscreen></iframe>
&nbsp;
The applause at the end is almost as disturbing as everything that came before it. This is a child who&#8217;s clearly being manipulated in about a million different ways. And the trans activists in Worcester loved it. They have no problem poisoning the mind of a young child, as we know. They&#8217;re happy to convince a child that he needs to be castrated. So of course they&#8217;re also happy to hand a child a script in order to push some low-effort emotional blackmail. 
And the script doesn&#8217;t even make sense by the way. He says at the end, &#8220;the kids are watching and we&#8217;re ready to vote you out.&#8221; But of course children can&#8217;t vote, even in Massachusetts. So whoever wrote this script for the child slipped up a bit here. 
As far as I can tell, the point of this little speech was to attack a member of the city council who supposedly referred to a self-described &#8220;non-binary&#8221; member of the Worcester city council as an &#8220;it&#8221; instead of a &#8220;they.&#8221; And that led to a whole crisis in Massachusetts just a few weeks ago, in which this &#8220;non-binary&#8221; city councilman decided to go on a paid leave of absence. Watch:
Clips to combine: 
<iframe loading="lazy" title="005 Unsafe Council" width="500" height="281" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/UYpoWUR59Zw?feature=oembed" frameborder="0" allow="accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share" referrerpolicy="strict-origin-when-cross-origin" allowfullscreen></iframe>
&nbsp;
&#8220;You see, it&#8217;s just too dangerous in the Worcester city council. So I&#8217;m afraid that, in addition to not showing up to work and doing everything remotely, I&#8217;m just not going to do anything at all. I&#8217;m not going to work, and the taxpayers are going to continue to pay me. An indefinite paid vacation is the only thing that can heal my wounds.&#8221;
You really can&#8217;t blame this person, honestly. If people in Worcester are so dumb that they fall for this, they deserve to have their money stolen. They deserve for their city to turn into a circus act, while their representatives skip work because of &#8220;misgendering.&#8221; At the very least, it&#8217;s entertainment for the rest of the country. As soon as we cut their funding, then we can sit back and truly enjoy it.
For Democrats, it won&#8217;t be so enjoyable. That&#8217;s because these activists are self-caricatures who have been steering the ship for the Democrat Party for many, many years. Based on what <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=INZi9nS5Pk4" target="_blank" rel="noopener">just happened</a> at the DNC, they&#8217;re still steering the ship. And in the end, that is a pathway to complete and total disaster, for the simple reason that these people are incapable of leading anything. They can&#8217;t lead a political movement, much less a country, because they&#8217;re all pathological narcissists who can&#8217;t see even two inches beyond their own egos.
As it stands, Worcester, Massachusetts, seems determined to turn itself into a haven for these self-absorbed crackpots. So does the Democrat Party. The end result will be that the vast majority of Americans — sane people — stay far away from both Worcester, Massachusetts, and the Democrat Party. They think they&#8217;re creating a sanctuary, but they&#8217;ve actually created something else entirely. They&#8217;ve created a monument to the confusion and incoherence of gender ideology. And like Worcester, Massachusetts, that ideology is now collapsing — in dramatic and sometimes hilarious fashion — right before our eyes.

Hilariously Unhinged LGBT Activists Turn City Council Meeting Into Circus

Federal Government

Matt Walsh

On Tuesday night, the city council of Worcester, Massachusetts passed a resolution 9-2 to make the city a “sanctuary” for people who identify as transgender.
The <a href="https://www.telegram.com/story/news/local/2025/02/12/resolution-declaring-worcester-transgender-sanctuary-city/78456433007/">resolution</a> states, “The City Council of the City of Worcester hereby reiterates its commitment to transgender rights and equal protections for transgender community members and declares itself a sanctuary city and a place of safety for transgender and gender diverse people &#8230; the City of Worcester recognizes the importance of gender-affirming healthcare as a matter of health, privacy, and equality &#8230; the City of Worcester hereby maintains it should be a policy of the City of Worcester that no city resources be utilized for cooperating with or providing information to any individual or out-of-state agency or department regarding the provision of gender-affirming healthcare or gender-affirming mental healthcare performed in Worcester and the Commonwealth of Massachusetts &#8230; the City of Worcester as a sanctuary city will not cooperate with Federal and State on policies aimed to harm transgender and gender diverse people &#8230;”
Councilor-at-Large Thu Nguyen, who claims to be “non-binary,” returned after having announced a hiatus and leaving the council in mid-January, alleging “transphobia” and being “misgendered” within the council, the Telegram and Gazette <a href="https://www.telegram.com/story/news/local/worcester/2025/02/12/nguyen-returns-as-council-backs-sanctuary-for-transgender-gender-diverse/78430723007/">reported</a>.
Councilor-at-Large Donna M. Colorio, who voted against the resolution along with Councilor-at-Large Morris A. Bergman, wanted to delay the vote because she was worried the city would lose federal funding.
“While echoing Colorio’s arguments, Bergman was often interrupted by taunting from the audience, including snorting sounds, which had to be quelled by Petty’s gavel,” the Telegram and Gazette noted. “A voice from the second floor of the chamber also hurled insults in German at him.”
“Fascism is trying to bully and intimidate people to think the way you think,” Bergman stated, adding, “What new rights does this resolution give that don’t already exist? I can’t say with 100% confidence that something that doesn’t add any more protection than already exists isn’t going to cause harm to the other 200,000 people in the city of Worcester.”
Worchester is the second-largest city in New England.

An NBC affiliate in Boston complained of “growing concerns” of deportation raids performed by Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) after the federal law enforcement agency caught illegal alien criminals wanted for crimes such as murder and rape.
NBC10 published a <a href="https://www.nbcboston.com/news/local/after-federal-agents-spotted-in-east-boston-concerns-grow-over-potential-ice-raids/3610367/">story</a> headlined, “After federal agents spotted in East Boston, concerns grow over potential ICE raids” shortly after federal law enforcement agents captured illegal alien criminals accused of a variety of violent crimes.
“There&#8217;s growing concerns over potential ICE raids locally after federal agents were spotted by NBC Boston cameras entering homes in East Boston Wednesday and taking at least one person into custody,” the NBC10 story read. “These operations come amid heightened alert for mass roundups and deportations promised by President Donald Trump, but federal authorities would not confirm they are related to that effort.”
The report was slammed on X by Bill Melugin, the Fox News National Correspondent who embedded with ICE on their series of raids in Boston.

“I’m curious what concerns there would be over the following being removed from the streets by ICE Boston yesterday?” he wrote on X, explaining that the federal law enforcement agency captured two alleged members of MS-13, a Haitian gang member with 17 convictions, multiple alleged rapists, and an alleged heroin trafficker, among others.

One Haitian illegal alien and alleged gang member was captured on video yelling, “I’m not going back to Haiti,” and praising former Presidents Barack Obama and Joe Biden. “Yo Biden forever bro. Thank Obama for everything he did for me bro,” he said as he was placed in the back of a police car.
President Donald Trump pledged during his campaign to carry out the largest mass deportation operation in American history. The 47th president signed a slate of immigration-related executive orders within hours of taking office, including declaring a national emergency on the southern border, designating cartels as foreign terrorist organizations, and suspending refugee resettlement.
Trump’s deportation plan enjoys significant public support, with one <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/poll-overwhelming-majority-of-americans-support-trumps-plan-to-deport-criminal-illegal-aliens">recent poll</a> from The New York Times finding that nearly 9 in 10 Americans support deporting illegal aliens with criminal records. That same survey also found that 63 percent of Americans support deporting immigrants who are here illegally and arrived over the past four years and that a majority of Americans, 55 percent, support deporting all illegal aliens.
Nearly <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/americans-strongly-supportive-of-trumps-mass-deportation-agenda-poll-finds">60 percent</a> of respondents in a CBS News poll said they would support an effort to deport all illegal aliens from the United States, not just those who have been convicted of a violent crime.

Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) has already arrested hundreds of illegal migrants in the first few days of the Trump administration, including MS-13 gang members and a Haitian gang member who shouted &#8220;F*** Trump!&#8221; and &#8220;Biden forever!&#8221; as he was carted away.
Video of the Haitian gang member mouthing off during his arrest was captured by Fox News, which had a reporter <a href="https://www.foxnews.com/politics/first-images-ice-mass-deportation-efforts-show-arrests-ms-13-gang-members-murder-suspects" target="_blank" rel="noopener">embedded</a> with ICE in Boston.
&#8220;I&#8217;m not going back to Haiti!&#8221; the arrested migrant shouted, sticking his head out the window of the ICE car.
“F*** Trump! You feel me? Yo, Biden forever, bro! Thank Obama for everything that he did for me, bro!” he said.

The Haitian gang member had 18 convictions in recent years.
Also in Boston, ICE arrested multiple MS-13 gang members and several illegal migrant murder and rape suspects, a total of eight arrests in one day.
Some of the arrested migrants had been released with ICE detainers that were not honored by sanctuary areas. Some also had Interpol Red Notices, meaning police forces internationally are asked to arrest them, often for extradition.
&#8220;Today was a good day.

A woman could be heard yelling &#8220;thank you&#8221; to the ICE agents as they arrested the criminals, Fox reported.
President Donald Trump has ordered mass deportations of illegal migrants, starting with dangerous criminals. On his first day in office, he signed multiple executive orders, revamping ICE enforcement, resuming the construction of the border wall, and reinstating the “Remain in Mexico” policy, among other immigration priorities.

Within hours of Trump&#8217;s inauguration, the Biden administration&#8217;s CBP One app, which allowed asylum seekers to make appointments with border authorities, was also shut down.
Less than 48 hours after Trump was sworn in, ICE had already <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/more-than-400-illegal-immigrants-arrested-in-first-few-days-of-trump-admin?topStoryPosition=2">arrested</a> more than 460 illegal migrants.
Several men charged or convicted of sexually abusing children were also arrested, as well as a man convicted of “sexual penetration with a foreign object on an unaware victim.”
Under the Biden administration, nearly 11 million illegal encounters were <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/exclusive-first-house-judiciary-hearing-of-2025-to-focus-on-biden-border-failures">recorded</a> between fiscal year 2021 and October 2024. Only about three million encounters were recorded nationwide during Trump&#8217;s first term.

Worcester Public Schools directed bus drivers to not allow students off of the bus if U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement officials are waiting at bus stops, a letter reveals.
&#8220;A recent notification has gone out regarding ICE (Immigrations and Customs Enforcement) agents potentially being at bus stops,” the letter states. “If you are aware of any agents being at a stop, DO NOT let any student off the bus and contact the transportation office immediately.&#8221;

The letter comes amid Massachusetts leaders — including Democratic Gov. Maura Healey — <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/boston-mayor-doubles-down-on-defying-trump-deportations-as-ma-police-arrest-migrants-for-child-rape" target="_blank" rel="noopener">promising to</a> resist any crackdown on immigration under the new Trump administration in the sanctuary state. Massachusetts has been a focal point of the immigration crisis, with the state providing migrants with shelters in hotels that are often riddled with chaos, violence, rape, and wasteful spending, <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/exclusive-former-migrant-shelter-director-sounds-alarm-recalls-widespread-rape-and-violence" target="_blank" rel="noopener">The Daily Wire previously reported</a>.
The district of the second biggest city in Massachusetts <a href="https://www.worcesterschools.org/article/1978850">sent a letter</a> to families reminding them of policies and procedures if immigration officials arrive at schools or places such as bus stops, <a href="https://www.cbsnews.com/boston/news/worcester-schools-immigration-ice-agents-bus-stop/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">reported CBS News</a>.
Superintendent Rachel Monarrez reportedly said her district will not coordinate with ICE and will not allow agents into facilities without a warrant signed by a federal judge.
A Massachusetts Republican Party spokesperson accused the district of “creating fake scenarios to rile up fear” in a statement to The Daily Wire.
“It’s clear that ICE is targeting violent criminals, not children,” Logan Trupiano said. “This political posturing is stoking unnecessary fear and deliberately misrepresenting what is actually happening on the streets.”
The Trump administration withdrew a Biden administration guideline that made “sensitive” areas like schools off-limits for ICE agents.
“Criminals will no longer be able to hide in America’s schools and churches to avoid arrest,” Acting Homeland Security Secretary Benjamine Huffman said in a Tuesday statement.
A progressive nonprofit is preparing school officials with instructions of how to deal with federal law enforcement officials, <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/schools-arent-off-limits-for-ice-raids-trump-dhs-says" target="_blank" rel="noopener">The Daily Wire reported</a>. The Century Foundation advised principals to meet federal law enforcement at the door and inform them that &#8220;district protocols&#8221; require approval before entry and to call the district’s lawyers.
On Tuesday, Border Czar Tom Homan <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/go-make-arrests-trumps-mass-deportations-are-underway-tom-homan-says" target="_blank" rel="noopener">said that ICE agents</a> have already started seeking out criminal illegal immigrants for deportation.
“ICE officers throughout the country were told today, ‘Go make arrests of those here illegally that have a public safety threat.’ So they’ve developed target sheets, an operational plan to go out in the field … so they’re out there right now looking for the most serious public safety threats throughout the country,” Homan said.
ICE and Monarrez did not respond to a request for comment.
