📣 SNUGGLES UPDATE!! -- & A MASTERCLASS IN LITIGATION
TODAY IS DAY 398.
FIRST a clarification of the TWO cases @ChristinaMaccio is fighting for Snuggles, and @JenniferEvn22 and WHO is involved.
➡️ ARIZONA STATE APPEAL:
Jennifer Evancho v. Tucson City Court
Contrary to other posts circulating out there, this case is with the Tucson City Attorney’s Office as the party in interest, (NOT PIMA COUNTY!!) and it challenges the dangerous-dog/destruction proceedings themselves.
UPDATE:
Snuggles’ state appeal is exactly where the action should be right now.
Christina filed the opening brief, and COT is due to respond by Nov 30.
Christina’s appellate brief skillfully attacks the underlying Tucson proceeding from multiple independent directions.
Once COT files their reply brief, typically, Christina/Jennifer will be able to file a response to their reply brief.
Updates will be coming as they occur.
➡️ FEDERAL CIVIL-RIGHTS CASE
Jennifer v. the City of Tucson, Pima County and individual officials/officers.
This case challenges separate constitutional conduct including Snuggles’ seizure, continued detention, due process, and related government actions.
UPDATE:
The judge made a ruling! And it is not what most people who read it would think.
The Federal Case is Alive and Protected.
📣 Five of Jennifer’s six federal claims have been stayed and are still alive.
THIS IS A MASSIVE WIN.
Despite both City of Tuscon and Pima County's best efforts to have Jennifer's case dismissed (thrown out) the judge did NOT dismiss the 5 main constitutional claims.
Instead, she "stayed" (paused) them. This means the claims remain pending and are stayed until the state proceedings conclude, and are actively hanging over the City and County's heads while they finish the state appeal.
Now, she won't have to start these efforts later and she avoided MONTHS of the ping-pong that just occurred!
Other rulings:
1. It was expected that the court would decline immediate federal intervention while the state proceedings continued and that the existing stay protected Snuggles. Not a surprise.
2. The judge dismissed the particular constitutional challenge to bond and boarding fees—not Jennifer’s damages claims generally. The damages components of the five principal counts remain preserved and the kennel and boarding fees can still be sought as damages if the unlawful-seizure claim succeeds. This was also not a surprise.
DEFEATING ROOKER-FELDMAN...TWICE!—AN EXTRAORDINARY FEDERAL BENCHMARK
One of COT & Pima's major arguments was Rooker-Feldman — essentially arguing that Jennifer was trying to use federal court to relitigate or overturn another court's decision/order or judgment.
Just two weeks earlier, in Major’s case in Texas, Christina obtained a federal ruling recognizing that an independent federal claim can survive even when a state destruction order already exists.
Rooker-Feldman has repeatedly been used to shut down federal challenges arising from state-court judgments, so having Christina defeat that jurisdictional barrier in BOTH Major’s Texas case and Snuggles’ Arizona case—within two weeks, in two different federal courts—is exceptionally significant.
And it just may have helped save Snuggles.
DAY 398. #SAVESNUGGLES
The two HERO DEPUTIES who made the ultimate sacrifice have been identified. Spokane County Deputies Mason Acheson, 35, and Parker Perry, 29, were fatally shot while attempting to RESCUE A POTENTIAL HOSTAGE during a domestic violence call in Washington.
Both were devoted husbands, fathers, military veterans, and experienced law enforcement officers who spent their lives protecting others.
Now their families are facing unimaginable loss, including FIVE YOUNG CHILDREN and a sixth on the way. There have been far too many stories like this in recent weeks.
The tragedy unfolded on November 3, 2026, around 2:25 p.m., when Spokane County deputies responded to a residence in the 18700 block of South Smythe Road near Spangle, Washington.
A woman had escaped to a neighboring home after reportedly being shot by her brother.
When deputies arrived, they learned that the suspect had active felony warrants and that additional people might still be in danger inside the residence.
A drone deployed to survey the property located a deceased victim in the yard, prompting deputies and SWAT personnel to prepare for a rescue operation.
Around 3:15 p.m., officers attempting to enter the home were met with gunfire.
Acheson and Perry were both critically wounded in the ensuing confrontation.
The gunman, identified as Ryan Larsen, was later found de*d inside the home from an apparent self-inflicted gunsh*t wound. Investigators also discovered another deceased victim inside the residence.
Both wounded deputies were rushed for emergency medical treatment.
Acheson d*ed early the following morning at Providence Sacred Heart Medical Center.
Perry suffered catastrophic injuries and was placed on life support. His family subsequently chose to honor his lifelong commitment to helping others through organ donation.
The Spokane County Sheriff's Office has since identified both men as deputies k*lled in the line of duty.
Deputy Mason Acheson had spent more than a decade serving his country and community.
He enlisted in the Washington Army National Guard in 2011, eventually earning the rank of sergeant with the 81st Brigade's 1st Battalion, 161st Infantry Regiment.
His military career included a deployment to Poland in 2021–2022, completion of the Army Sniper Course in 2017, and multiple commendations, including three Army Commendation Medals.
Acheson also served eight years with the Washington State Patrol, working as a trooper and firearms instructor before joining the Spokane County Sheriff's Office in July 2022.
He became a member of the SWAT team and served as a sniper, providing overwatch to protect fellow deputies during dangerous operations.
His experience and skill gave his teammates confidence when entering situations where their lives were at risk.
He leaves behind his wife and two children.
Deputy Parker Perry was equally dedicated to serving others.
A graduate of Carroll College in Montana, where he earned a bachelor's degree in business administration, Perry joined the Spokane County Sheriff's Office in May 2020.
He also served in the Washington Army National Guard beginning in 2017, rising to the rank of captain as a military intelligence officer with the same infantry battalion as Acheson.
His military honors included two Army Commendation Medals and the Armed Forces Service Medal.
Perry joined the sheriff's SWAT team in 2022 before becoming a K-9 deputy in 2025.
On the day of the shooting, he and his K-9 partner, Brego, responded to the domestic violence call.
According to the sheriff's office, Perry immediately volunteered to help when he learned another person's life might be in danger.
He joined his teammates at the residence and helped force entry despite knowing an armed suspect was inside.
It was during that attempted rescue that he suffered his fatal injuries.
Even after his family learned he would not survive, they made the decision to donate his organs, giving other people a chance at life.
Perry leaves behind his wife, two children, and a third baby on the way.
The Spokane County Sheriff's Office described both deputies as men who consistently placed the safety of others above their own.
Their final actions reflected the commitment that had defined their careers.
They responded to a desperate call for help, entered a dangerous situation knowing the risks, and gave their lives attempting to protect someone who could not protect themselves.
Two families have lost their husbands and fathers. A sheriff's office has lost two brothers, and the Spokane community has lost two men who dedicated their lives to service.
Please keep the families of Deputy Mason Acheson and Deputy Parker Perry, their fellow deputies, and the entire Spokane County Sheriff's Office in your prayers.
Rest easy, heroes. Your courage, service, and sacrifice will NEVER be forgotten.

🚨ALERT: In a bombshell move that's sent shockwaves across the U.S, Texas Governor Greg Abbott has formally designated the Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR)—the nation’s largest Muslim civil rights organization—as a foreign terrorist organization under Texas state law.
UPDATE: KOAH SHARPE (11 MONTHS)
Sheriff Jay Koon has confirmed that Koah may have been buried alive for approximately 24 hours in South Carolina.
Investigators found freshly disturbed dirt covered with pine straw about 50 yards into the woods near his grandfather’s home.
When they began digging, they heard a baby crying. 🥺
Koah was found inside a wire dog crate, wrapped in a towel. Investigators believe the towel may have created an air pocket that allowed him to breathe.
His father, Michael Comer, had been arrested around 10:30pm Monday night and provided investigators with no information about his son’s whereabouts.
His baby was buried underground while he sat in jail. 😤
Koah was taken to the hospital for treatment. Authorities are now considering additional charges against his father.
I cannot believe this little boy survived. What an incredible rescue. 🤍
🇬🇧 This is INFURIATING.
Earlier this year, burglar John Coker gained access to an elderly man’s home by pretending to be a fire alarm engineer before attacking him.
Coker already had 172 previous offenses, including 80 involving vulnerable people.
How the hell was someone with that record still free to do this again?
He was initially jailed for 4 years and 8 months, but the Court of Appeal increased his sentence to 9 years and 8 months.
I genuinely can’t explain the RAGE I feel when I see someone hitting an elderly person.

Please ask him how the American people can have any confidence in him or Senate Republicans when they squandered a Republican House, Senate, & White House.
Ask him about the hundreds of bills sitting on his desk that were sent from the Republican House.
Ask how if he feels at all responsible for the defeats of his colleagues in red states like Kansas.
Ask him how do we expect him to do anything in the minority when he failed to lead in the majority.
Ask him if he feels responsible for the Republican base not turning out because voters were so fed up with an entirely Republican gov’t that failed to pass legislation.
Ask him how he will respond when democrats change the rules & allow for legislation to pass out of the Senate with a simple majority.
Ask him how is it “conservative” to squander a Republican majority with aging Supreme Court Justices that no longer have the voters to confirm their successors.
Ask him why does he deserve to continue to serve in a leadership role when his lack of action in the majority directly impacted his catastrophic loss into the minority.
Ask him if he intends to take a vacation during the remaining time Republicans maintain the Senate majority.
Ask him if he will use every second over the next 2 months to work to pass legislation.
Ask him if he regrets not taking advantage of the talking filibuster to pass the SAVE America Act.
Ask him if he regrets not safeguarding our elections, especially since we have proof that non-citizens are voting in our elections.
Ask him why he deserves re-election in 2028.
🚨 THIS is Minnesota fraud:
Fahima Mahamud, CEO of Future Leaders Early Learning in Minneapolis, PLEADED GUILTY to wire fraud and conspiracy after pocketing $4.6 MILLION in false child care claims, plus $850K from the Feeding Our Future scheme meant to feed kids.
When the walls closed in, she was arrested trying to board a flight to LONDON.
Tim Walz looked the other way.
Every dime must be paid back, and she belongs behind bars.
So does Tim Walz.
I say this with great sadness and a heavy heart.
Heather has recently passed away.
She has been a staunch supporter of mine for many many years.
The love and support she has shown me over the years is something I can never repay.
Heather is a beautiful soul, she will be missed by everyone she touched.
Fly with the angels darlin, look over your family and friends during this difficult time, give them strength.
Until we meet again.
I’ve always liked Stephen Miller. He’s principled, smart, and fearless. I didn’t know this about him.
In spring 2006, three Duke lacrosse players—David Evans, Collin Finnerty, and Reade Seligmann—were accused of raping Crystal Mangum at a team party.
Within days the campus verdict was in. The season was canceled. The coach was forced out. Their faces were on every cable channel.
88 Duke professors signed a full-page ad thanking protesters for not waiting for the facts and declaring the case exposed “racism and sexism” no matter what a court decided. The school suspended the players.
Durham DA Mike Nifong, a Democrat fighting a tough primary, went on TV promising convictions. Saying “wait for the evidence” got you called racist.
Except for one student. He wasn’t on the team. He wasn’t a friend of the accused. He was just a 20-year-old junior (later senior) who kept writing in the student paper that in America you’re innocent until proven guilty. Then he did something no other Duke student did: he went on The O’Reilly Factor and Nancy Grace—not as a lawyer or pundit, but as a student—telling millions his own university had rushed to judgment.
Most of campus called him racist. The News & Observer called him the “lonely voice insisting that the players were innocent.” He stayed that voice for a year.
Then the case collapsed. DNA cleared all three. Mangum’s story kept changing. The photo lineup was rigged.
Worst of all, Nifong conspired with the DNA lab to hide the exculpatory results.
On April 11, 2007, North Carolina AG Roy Cooper dropped every charge and declared Evans, Finnerty, and Seligmann “innocent”—victims of a “tragic rush to accuse.” Nifong resigned, was disbarred, and was briefly jailed. Years later Mangum admitted she lied.
The student who refused to back down, who was called racist for defending three fellow students while 88 of his own professors had already convicted them in print, who went on national TV at 20 to stand for the presumption of innocence?
His name was Stephen Miller.

🚨 36 individuals, nine of whom are illegal aliens, have been charged in a multi-state @HSTaskForce investigation involving drug trafficking and money laundering that spans international borders.
“Nothing will stop the Trump Administration’s commitment to protecting the American people from lethal drugs,” said @AGToddBlanche. “Thanks to the work of the Homeland Security Task Force, the people of South Carolina are safer today than they were two years ago. The Department of Justice will continue dismantling drug trafficking networks and delivering justice for victims and their families.”
The map shows where the arrests occurred in South Carolina.

🚨EXCLUSIVE VIDEO – 18 Illegal Aliens Interdicted off Southern California Coast
On November 7, Marine Interdiction Agents from the Long Beach Marine Unit intercepted a vessel carrying 18 subjects approximately 12 nautical miles east of Catalina Island, California.
The vessel was initially detected by an aircraft from the San Diego Air and Marine Branch. Marine Interdiction Agents transported the vessel and illegal aliens aboard to Newport Harbor, where the individuals were transferred to the U.S. Border Patrol for processing.
THE BORDER IS CLOSED!. Anyone who attempts to enter the United States unlawfully will be apprehended, processed, and removed in accordance with U.S. law.
🚨 HOLY CRAP! HHS Sec. Bobby Kennedy reveals he can UNLEASH because GOP Senators can't hold his appointees hostage when they lose power in January — paired with Stephen Miller as Chief of Staff
"Republicans in the Senate, every time I tried to do something robust, I'd get calls saying, 'if you do that, we're not going to confirm your appointees.' So I said to the group at HHS, I said, the Democrats, no matter how great the appointee is, not one vote will go them!"
"The Senate no longer has ANY leverage over me...Then we have Stephen Miller, a friend of our movement — I don't think ANYTHING is going to get in our way now!" 🔥
Did I hear that right? Some Senate Republicans purposefully obstructed his MAHA efforts?
Absolutely unreal. MAHA is a 2024 mandate.
I hope the final 2 years of Trump's term are the BEST for MAHA 🇺🇸
That would also be good news to win in 2028, because we NEED to take everything back.
After heavy rainfall in Surat Thani province, Thailand, a stray dog became trapped in the middle of a stream, barking desperately out of fear. When a woman waded into the water to rescue him, the frightened dog became so panicked that he even bared his teeth and tried to fight back.
But she refused to give up. Instead, she patiently petted his head and gently comforted him until he felt safe. Once he had calmed down, she carefully lifted him out of the water and carried him to safety.
This beautiful act of kindness reminds us that sometimes, patience and gentleness are the keys to saving a frightened animal in need. 🐶❤️
Please pray for Teddy. He’s three and has been battling high risk neuroblastoma. Pray for him to return back to normalcy and full health. God loves children and he is compassionate. Thank you.
