Foreign minister sucks.

back in minneapolis...

"The thing is, as a Green Card holder there was no form for Everlee to fill out at immigration. It’s sort of impossible to complete the form accurately when the form does not exist. Webworm spoke to a US immigration attorney about this, who also indicated Peters was full of shit".

As usual: 1. Winston is lying 2. Media ignores it

Some reporters seem to think that uncritically parroting the lies of politicians makes them unbiased. But when you give an easily disprovable lie equal weight to the truth, you are in fact taking a side.

I’ve been saying that I’m sure Wihongi is a Ngāpuhi name. Shameful of Peters as the Foreign Minister to abandon a New Zealander, but also shameful for an uri o Ngāpuhi who goes to Waitangi every year to demand respect to abandon and insult a Ngāpuhi.

winston peters told reporters that new zealander everlee wihongi has been in ICE prison for nearly a month because she didn't declare something on a form. the thing is - there *is no form*. please RT: www.webworm.co/winstonpeters/

A coyote that turned up on Alcatraz was presumed to have swam over from San Francisco. But a DNA sample from the animal’s droppings showed it was from the much farther Angel Island. Park staff were prepared to trap and relocate the coyote but it is no longer on the island.

In the 90s, Harrison Ford was the right age to play the president in movies. In 2026, Harrison Ford is the right age to play the president in movies.

you know how most people have supermarket hand soap, and then the first level of rich is aesop hand soap.... what is the next tier of handwash after that? because i know justin bieber and rihanna etc are not using aesop. this is v important question thank u for ur attention

how the new zealand government reacts when you're imprisoned overseas, but white and rich:

If this were a Pākeha woman, incarcerated for no apparent reason & without due process in a “partner country” where they held dual citizenship, I wonder what their response would be…💭🤨 #nzpol #OneTermGovernment #NZ

webworm can report that the new zealand government appears to be offering *zero viable support* to everlee wihongi, or her family, after she was kidnapped by ICE: www.webworm.co/betty2/

No comfort that our current government has no interest in intervening in cases like this. Kia kaha Everlee, and the rest of the Wihongi whanau.

It’s so upsetting that New Zealan is doing so little for Evelee. When I went to the US most recently as a trans woman I did so with a level of confidence that I carried this western privilege and that New Zealand would be there for me and my wellbeing but now I’m less sure

you'd hope as minister or foreign affairs, winston peters, may care about how a new zealander on a valid green card has been kidnapped by ICE, and is now being held indefinitely in a prison in the middle of the mojave desert?

Democrats voting to revoke their endorsement of Anna Wilding

for any webworm readers following along, it appears anna wilding's US political career is about to encounter quite a big hurdle: www.webworm.co/pretenderpar...

Tremendous economy, "the hottest in the world," they're saying, incredible economy, yes, we're buying cartel gold and selling it as our own, they're saying it's the greatest economy of all time.

129 journalists were killed last year and we have spent the last 24 hours watching a handful of the most powerful and useless people in political media talk about how scary and dangerous a thing that happened three blocks away was.

“No place for violence in a Democracy” say people you may remember recently encouraging drivers to run over protestors for being in the way

This is both grotesque and a perfect summation of this country's values.

Every single guy we hate at that dinner left his wife in the dust like that scene from FORCE MAJEURE

WHCA journalists: oh my god we are so traumatized!!! Also WHCA journalists: [posts a bunch of photos from various parties they attended after being traumatized]

Remember how less than three weeks ago the president threatened to kill an entire civilization
