A woman with a connection to White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt has been arrested as part of President Donald Trump’s crackdown on immigration. Bruna Ferreira was arrested by Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents in Revere, Massachusetts, WCVB in Boston reported on Tuesday night.

Ferreira has an 11-year-old son with Michael Leavitt, who is the press secretary’s brother. Ferreira emigrated from Brazil as a child and is being held in ICE custody in Louisiana. Michael Leavitt, a New Hampshire resident, told WMUR that his son lives full-time with him and his wife, and added that Ferreira still has a relationship with her son. He said that his son has not spoken with Ferreira since her arrest several weeks ago.

In a statement, Michael Leavitt said that his “only concern has always been the safety, well-being, and privacy of [his] son.” Ferreira’s attorney said his client came to the U.S. under the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals program.

“She’s in the process of actually getting her residency and she was abruptly arrested and taken from her young child right before Thanksgiving,” her attorney Todd Pomerleau told WCVB, which published a statement from a source familiar with the situation.

1. Oh, I love that line.

"she was abruptly arrested and taken from her young child right before Thanksgiving,”

It's magnificent. It should go straight to the heart in driving up sympathy, making her stand out above the tens of thousands of other immigrants who were ripped from their families the rest of the year.

2. What do you bet that corporate media ignore this in its entirety?

6. That's a suckers bet. No thank you.

8. FAFO family, but I expect she'll get very special treatment and even a cash reward for her inconvenience

12. I was wondering if they would even have one today

11. Would seem a natural question to ask a Press Secretary.

[EuterpeThelo]

13. And not one reporter will even ask Fascist Barbie about it.

Even if they did, she'd gish gallop her way out of it as usual.

Ironic name for the town in which the poor lady was arrested. Time for that dude to ride again...

I wish every one of the people doing this to be bound to their own karma.

14. Remember THEY control which media are even sitting in there

so....

15. Cluck cluck cluck SQUAWK!

That's the sound of the chickens coming home to roost.

I wonder if KKKaroline will run crying to Shitler to get her out?

16. I wonder why I keep seeing this headline worded in this manner...

I suppose 'ex-sister-in-law' is too close for comfort, Mrs Leave'em?

Wait... were they even in the holy bonds of matrimony when they conceived, Mrs, Cross-wearer?

The supposed 'liberal leaning press' doesn't seem interested in divulging a whole lot, do they?

(I wonder how much MAGA philosophy has permeated that household... and maybe even that poor kid who asked for none of this.)

18. "I wonder why I keep seeing this headline worded in this manner..."

were they even in the holy bonds of matrimony when they conceived, Mrs, Cross-wearer?

That was my first thought and wondered why not "SIL" or something? So I had to dig and then had the "Ah HA!" moment.

They used to tar and feather this circumstance as "out of wedlock".

[OldBaldy1701E]

19. Yep.

Take it from a literal bastard.
