  7. This is a fun read... Milwaukee man charged with identity theft for allegedly writing letter that led to arrest of man by ICE agents A Milwaukee man is facing criminal charges after he admitted to sending letters threatening President Donald Trump under an immigrant’s name, telling police his plan was to have the man deported. Demetric Scott, 52, was charged with identify theft, intimidating a witness and two counts of bail jumping Monday. His aim, according to the criminal complaint, was to block the man he targeted with the false letter from testifying against him at an upcoming criminal trial. His alleged scheme initially seemed to be working. Ramon Morales Reyes, 54, was arrested by U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement on May 22. Department of Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem released a statement naming Morales Reyes and saying, “Thanks to our ICE officers, this illegal alien who threatened to assassinate President Trump is behind bars.” The statement included an image of the letter, handwritten in English. However, Morales Reyes’ attorneys soon pointed out that their client could not have written the letter because he cannot speak or write in English. Morales Reyes’ supporters suggested he had been set up by someone involved in the criminal case in which he was a victim of an armed robbery. According to the complaint filed against Scott, he has been in custody at the Milwaukee County Criminal Justice Facility awaiting trial for armed robbery and battery charges filed in 2023. Because phone calls from jail are recorded, detectives were able to listen to calls he made from the facility that discussed his plan to try and frame Morales Reyes, according to the complaint. On the calls, Scott could be heard asking others for help sending out an envelope. He also asked for the addresses of the Department of Justice and the “Attorney General.” In another call, he said he sent a large envelope to his “mama’s house” and he said the letter had to be sent out “from the street.” “This dude is a god—- illegal immigrant and they just need to pick his a– up,” Scott said in another call. “And the judge will agree cause if he gets picked up by ICE, there won’t be a Jury Trial so they will probably dismiss it that day,” he said on the call. “That’s my plan.” A Milwaukee Police Department detective interviewed Scott on May 30. During the interview he said he, “admitted that he wrote everything on the letters and envelopes himself,” according to the complaint. “The defendant (Scott) stated that he believed the letters were the simplest way to get ‘this as—–‘ off his back,” the complaint states. According to the complaint, Scott wrote and sent letters to the Wisconsin Attorney General’s Office, the Milwaukee police chief and the Milwaukee Immigration and Customs Enforcement office. All of the letters threatened Trump’s life and had a return address of “RM-R.” The letter sent to the ICE office in Milwaukee said, “I will self deport myself back to Mexico but not before I use my 30 yard 6 to shoot your precious president in [his] head.” “I will see him at one of his big ralleys,” the letter added. Morales Reyes supporters had last week called on federal officials to issue a correction about the statement blaming him for the threats against Trump. On Monday, his attorney said the family was relieved that he had been cleared through the legal case against Scott. “It has been a painful and terrifying past few days for Ramon and his family,” his attorney Kime Abduli said in a statement Monday night. “I’m relieved to know that the actual author may have been identified, and especially relieved that Ramon’s innocence in all of this has been made clear.” However, Morales Reyes remains in custody at the ICE detention facility in Dodge County. The U.S. Department of Homeland Security statement said Morales Reyes had entered the country illegally at least nine times from 1998 to 2005 and that he had a criminal record. He had been working with Abduli to get his U-visa, or a “U nonimmigrant status” for people who are “victims of certain crimes,” according to U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services. Attorney Cain Oulahan is working with Morales Reyes now regarding his possible deportation. He said Morales Reyes has a hearing in immigration court in Chicago this week. Scott is scheduled to make an initial appearance on the charges related to the letter Tuesday.
  8. Everlong > Mr Brightside Also, I don't care. Grohl was a legend, he shoulda kept it in his pants. I've heard some other not nice things about him but IDK if those are true. I'm not sure why Modest Mouse is out here catching strays though.

  10. As a white guy, I can't tell you how wrong this is.
  11. I mean that's the dream right? but if companies could do that, I wonder why they didn't in the 50's, 60's, 70's, 80's, 90's, 00's. It's almost like those words shaped by more enlightened moralities were starting to have an impact, and that was SCARY! Who's gonna make my samiches and dig my ditches?
  12. Poor little guy! Parvo is TOUGH. Give em an ear scratch from me when he gets home.
  13. I've got some bad news for you. GenX are majority Trumpkins. I guess riding a bike without a helmet and drinking from the hose *might* not have made us stronger/smarter after all.
