🔵 ICE Attacked
Citizen Frank
May 11, 2025
Good morning. It’s Sunday, May 11.
A Massachusetts police union is calling for charges against a City Councilmember who allegedly assaulted local and federal officers — and incited a caught-on-video chaotic protest of an Immigration and Customs Enforcement arrest of an accused violent criminal.
The aggressive protest saw as many as 25 neighbors wailing and chanting “no warrant!” and “not the mother!” — with the daughter of the apprehended Ferreira de Oliveira jumping in front of the unmarked ICE vehicle while holding her own infant in an attempt to stop the arrest, video showed.
Etel Haxhiaj, who represents Worcester’s District 5, helped incite the mob into assaulting ICE officers and cops during the Department of Homeland Security’s apprehension in a suburban neighborhood that escalated out of control Friday, the Worcester Police Patrolman’s Union said in a statement obtained by The Post.
Harry Potter and Monty Python and the Holy Grail actor John Cleese suggested in a now-deleted post on social media, that White House deputy chief of staff Stephen Miller be suspended by his neck over comments made regarding habeas corpus.
“I see Stephen Miller says he is actively thinking about suspending ‘habeas corpus,’” Cleese wrote in a now-deleted post on X.
“As this has been the keystone of the Rule of Law for centuries, I’d like to suggest that we actively think about suspending Stephen Miller… Preferably by the neck.”
The Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) said on May 7 that it has canceled about half a million “unneeded” credit cards used by federal agencies.
In a post on social media platform X, DOGE wrote that over the past 10 weeks, its program to audit “unused” or “unneeded” credit cards has been expanded to 32 federal agencies.
DOGE, led by tech billionaire and Trump administration adviser Elon Musk, said that more than 500,000 agency credit cards were deactivated in that time period, out of roughly 4.6 million active cards and accounts used by the government.
The high-profile sex trafficking case against Sean “Diddy” Combs has taken a stunning turn; one of the prosecution’s key witnesses has mysteriously gone missing just days before opening statements are set to begin.
Federal prosecutors told a Manhattan judge this week that they’ve been unable to reach “Victim 3,” a central figure expected to deliver bombshell testimony against the hip-hop mogul.
The missing woman, who does not reside in New York, had planned to testify without using a pseudonym and was prepared to detail “very personal and explosive” abuse she allegedly endured at the hands of Combs, according to the Daily Mail.
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy responded to Russian President Vladimir Putin on May 11, welcoming his call for peace talks between the two nations, but insisted a full, temporary cease-fire must be in place before negotiations begin.
“It is a positive sign that the Russians have finally begun to consider ending the war,” Zelenskyy wrote in a post on social media platform X. “The entire world has been waiting for this for a very long time. And the very first step in truly ending any war is a ceasefire.”
On Sunday, Russia resumed mass drone attacks on Ukraine, capping the end of its self-declared 3-day pause in fighting.
Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D., N.Y.) was standing in front of thousands of angry Democrats and urging them to get behind candidates willing to brawl—even if it means unseating members of their own party.
“We need a Democratic Party that fights harder for us,” the 35-year-old New Yorker said to applause at a recent rally in battleground Arizona. At another event on her Western tour with Sen. Bernie Sanders (I., Vt.), the crowd periodically chanted “primary Chuck,” encouraging her to challenge Sen. Chuck Schumer (D., N.Y.).
Ocasio-Cortez hasn’t made a decision on her future but isn’t ruling anything out, including primarying the Senate minority leader or even a presidential bid, according to a person familiar with her thinking.
A biological male competing against females won first place in two track events.
It happened in Maine, which so far has held firm against President Trump’s executive order banning biological men from competing against women in interscholastic athletics.
In what appears to have been a tri-meet, North Yarmouth Academy junior Soren Stark-Chessa won the girls 800 meter and 1600 meter (mile) runs, the latter by almost 20 seconds.
In his first formal audience as the newly elected pontiff, Pope Leo XIV identified artificial intelligence (AI) as one of the most critical matters facing humanity.
“In our own day,” Pope Leo declared, “the church offers everyone the treasury of its social teaching in response to another industrial revolution and to developments in the field of artificial intelligence that pose new challenges for the defense of human dignity, justice and labor.” He linked this statement to the legacy of his namesake Leo XIII’s 1891 encyclical Rerum Novarum, which addressed workers’ rights and the moral dimensions of capitalism.
His remarks continued the direction charted by the late Pope Francis, who warned in his 2024 annual peace message that AI – lacking human values of compassion, mercy, morality and forgiveness – is too perilous to develop unchecked. Francis, who passed away on April 21, had called for an international treaty to regulate AI and insisted that the technology must remain “human-centric,” particularly in applications involving weapon systems or tools of governance.
