A beautiful start to October here in Albuquerque, NM. Clear, blue and sunny skies, crisp autumn air and about 20 balloons aloft pre Balloon Fiesta. The official dates of the Balloon Fiesta are Saturday October 3rd thru the 11th. Magical!

Update from Attorney Goldfinch at approximately 3pm ET: “There are important new developments in Wilber's case. A federal judge has temporarily blocked his deportation, meaning he cannot be removed from the United States before his first hearing, scheduled for Wednesday, September 30.” 🧵 1/4
Repost From Attorney Kate Goldfinch. UPDATE ON Wilber Rafael Garcés Pérez September 22: His communication privileges were taken away after he spoke to the press. Here's what we know now.YESTERDAY, WILBER SPOKE OUT. During our press conference, Wilber called his wife from ICE detention and asked to speak to the press. He told the public that he had been discharged from the hospital just hours after being shot, with the bullet still lodged in his body, and transferred into ICE custody in severe pain.AFTER THE PRESS CONFERENCE, HIS TABLET WAS TAKEN. Guards at the South Texas ICE Processing Center in Pearsall forcibly took the tablet from Wilber's hands. He was told that he had lost his communication privileges. He was then moved out of the infirmary and into an isolated room.HE WAS GIVEN A FLAT BED, NOT A MEDICAL BED. Wilber is recovering from a gunshot wound. The bullet remains in his body near his clavicle. His clavicle is fractured. He has significant swelling and his arm is in a sling. Despite his injuries, the bed in his isolated room is flat and cannot be medically adjusted.

Of course, incompetent chatterbox Pete Hegseth doesn't want factual news coming out of the Pentagon. That might interfere with his deceitful underreporting of casualties and lying about the significant damages inflicted by Iran.
