DHS says Massachusetts city council member ‘incited chaos’ as ICE arrested ‘violent criminal alien’

The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) said a Worcester, Massachusetts city council member «incited chaos» when U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agents arrested a violent criminal illegal alien on Thursday.
«District Councilor for the City of Worcester [Etel] Haxhiaj pulled a political stunt and incited chaos by trying to obstruct law enforcement. ICE officers and local police regained control of the situation and ICE arrested Ferreira de Oliveira,» DHS assistant secretary Tricia McLaughlin said. «The previous administration’s open border policies allowed this criminal to illegally enter our country in August of 2022. Thanks to President Trump and Secretary Noem this criminal is off our streets.»
DHS went on to describe Oliveira as a «violent criminal alien.» The agency said she was arrested by local police for assault and battery with a dangerous weapon and assault and battery on a pregnant woman.
Tense video emerged over the weekend of Oliveira’s arrest. A rowdy crowd of about 25 people gathered and disrupted the operation. Police called it a «chaotic incident.»

The video showed a group of residents chanting «don’t take the mother» and «no warrant» after a woman was led into an SUV by uniformed ICE and U.S. Customs and Border Protection agents. Before the vehicle pulled away, other women are seen placing their hands on the front hood of an SUV and screaming in protest.
The Worcester Police Patrol Officers’ Union said in a press release that the incident happened at about 11:15 a.m. on Thursday and that police were dispatched for a call from federal law enforcement officers who needed assistance due to a hostile and uncooperative crowd.
«Officers arriving on scene continued to call for more officers as the scene continued to escalate rapidly,» the union said. «Police officers respond to a variety of highly emotional calls daily and there is nothing that can be more emotional or difficult to deal with than a call that involves times when families are separated or arrested or taken into custody in front of other family members. These types of calls for assistance can be extremely dangerous and place officers at a high risk of injury due to the high emotions people feel at the time.»

All available police officers from Worcester were dispatched to the scene, the union continued, and «for obvious reasons» the officers became concerned for their safety.
Federal and local authorities were «threatened, abused and even assaulted» at the scene, the union said.
«Such conduct cannot be tolerated or condoned. Because some protesters threatened officers’ safety, police had to make additional arrests,» the union said. «Of particular concern in this case, one of our elected policy makers and someone who has created this difficult task for the police, District 5 City Councilor, Etel Haxhiaj, incited aggression towards the police during the incident.
«This councilor participated in the conduct of the unruly crowd and eventually assaulted both Worcester police and federal law enforcement officers on scene. Her behavior also emboldened others to act in this manner,» the union added. «The conduct of this anti-police activist councilor is deplorable and unacceptable. Regardless of political opinions or views, city officials should never condone the assault of an officer and flat-out disregard to the point of violent opposition, the authority of police to maintain safety and public order.»

As a result, the union said it is calling for an ethics investigation into Haxhiaj’s behavior, adding it will hold her and others who assaulted their officers accountable.
«No one has the right to act in such a reckless manner towards police officers, and we demand accountability for all criminal and ethically deplorable behavior,» the union said.
Haxhiaj did not respond to Fox News Digital’s request for comment on the matter.

Enfermedad verde, el extraño padecimiento que afectaba a jóvenes vírgenes en el siglo XVII

En la Londres del siglo XVII, decenas de jóvenes mujeres morían cada año por la llamada “enfermedad verde”, un diagnóstico desaparecido hoy de la medicina.
El fenómeno se registró principalmente entre mujeres adolescentes, alrededor de los años 1650. La afección preocupó tanto a médicos, familias y autoridades, que intentaron explicar sus causas y buscar posibles tratamientos. El término marcó la historia médica durante siglos, aunque para la actualidad su significado resulta confuso.
De acuerdo con National Institutes of Health, las primeras descripciones médicas de la enfermedad destacaron varios síntomas. Las jóvenes afectadas presentaban rostros pálidos, debilidad extrema, dificultad para alimentarse, hinchazón de tobillos y una pronunciada apatía.

Según detalló JSTOR Daily, numerosos médicos del período asociaron la enfermedad exclusivamente con mujeres jóvenes que no habían contraído matrimonio. Así, surgió la expresión popular “enfermedad de las vírgenes”, reforzando la idea de que un cierto estado civil guardaba relación directa con la salud.
John Graunt, considerado precursor de la estadística en Inglaterra, analizó el fenómeno en la capital británica. En sus informes, empleó eufemismos para evitar detalles explícitos sobre una supuesta causa sexual, pues en la época resultaba vergonzoso mencionarla.
En ese sentido, Graunt anotó en su tabla de mortalidad “Stopping of the Stomach”, pero aclaró que, en verdad, hacía referencia a la enfermedad verde.

Durante siglos, la enfermedad también ocupó un lugar notable en la cultura popular. Shakespeare empleó el término en Romeo y Julieta y en Henry IV, Parte 2 para ridiculizar o señalar debilidades. La referencia a una apariencia pálida y enfermiza reforzó la idea de un vínculo entre la salud física y el estado emocional o social de los adolescentes.
Según el historiador Winfried Schleiner, la enfermedad resultó tan conocida que se convirtió en un recurso de la sátira política, la literatura y el teatro de la época.
Las jóvenes con “enfermedad verde” despertaron no solo preocupación médica, sino también comentarios mordaces y bromas sobre su situación personal y social. La descripción más difundida incluía rostros pálidos y “corazón tembloroso ante el más pequeño esfuerzo”.

De acuerdo con National Institutes of Health, la denominación proviene del griego chloros, que significa amarillo verdoso, resaltando el aspecto pálido de las afectadas. Los médicos del siglo XVI, como Johann Lange y Rodrigo a Castro, interpretaron la dolencia vinculándola a desequilibrios de los “humores” y atribuyeron su causa a la retención de “sangre mala” por la falta de actividad sexual o por vasos sanguíneos demasiado estrechos.
Ante la imposibilidad de recomendar el matrimonio para todas las jóvenes, sugerían sangrías o enemas como tratamiento alternativo, especialmente en el caso de mujeres consagradas a la vida religiosa.
La enfermedad permaneció ligada a la feminidad durante generaciones. Sin embargo, algunas obras literarias extendieron el término, en clave de burla, a hombres que no bebían alcohol ni tenían experiencia amorosa. Estos usos evidenciaron la carga simbólica y social del diagnóstico mucho más allá de cualquier base fisiológica comprobada.

Helen King, citada por Schleiner, detectó que menciones a la “green sickness” aparecieron en manuales médicos hasta los años 1920. No obstante, el diagnóstico desapareció del repertorio de enfermedades reconocidas durante el siglo XX. Las razones de este abandono se vinculan tanto al cambio en las costumbres sociales como a la comprensión médica de los síntomas.
De acuerdo a diversas investigaciones, médicos de la época confundieron manifestaciones de anemias reales con nociones sociales y morales relacionadas con la virginidad. La medicina moderna identifica la anemia como una afección causada por deficiencias nutricionales, enfermedades crónicas u otros motivos, sin vincularla al estado civil o a cuestiones morales.
Algunas crónicas y versos satíricos, como los referidos al duque de Monmouth, reforzaron la idea de que solo el matrimonio o las relaciones sexuales podían “curar” la enfermedad en las jóvenes.
Así se profundizó la estigmatización social sobre las mujeres solteras o quienes no deseaban contraer matrimonio, catalogándolas de enfermas por su estado.
A lo largo del tiempo, la noción de “enfermedad verde” funcionó como un reflejo de los prejuicios y el desconocimiento científico sobre la salud de las mujeres adolescentes.
El diagnóstico reflejó la interacción de factores culturales, médicos y religiosos en una época donde el acceso al conocimiento médico era limitado y dominado por creencias heredadas de la Antigüedad.
Actualmente, no existe ninguna evidencia que vincule la falta de matrimonio con enfermedades hematológicas. La desaparición del término “green sickness” y su olvido en la medicina contemporánea muestran cómo los diagnósticos pueden estar más influidos por valores sociales que por la evidencia científica.
Según especialistas como Helen King y Winfried Schleiner, el estudio de “enfermedad verde” permite comprender cómo la sociedad interpretó los síntomas de jóvenes mujeres y cómo la ciencia evolucionó al dejar atrás los mitos y avanzar hacia una comprensión basada en datos verificables y observación clínica.

Antifa agitation turns violent in Germany, bolstering Trump admin’s foreign terror label

NEWYou can now listen to Fox News articles!
A mass protest on Saturday filled with many activists from the radical organization Antifa, which President Donald Trump designated as a domestic terrorist organization, delayed the start of a conference for the right-wing populist German party Alternative for Germany (AfD) youth wing called Generation Deutschland.
Between 25,000 and 30,000 protesters turned out against the AfD youth convention in the central German city of Giessen, prompting the largest police contingent (6,000 officers) in the history of the state of Hesse.
The AfD co-leader Alice Weidel blasted the demonstrators at the city’s convention center. «What is being done out there – dear left-wingers, dear extremists, you need to look at yourselves – is something that is deeply undemocratic.»
STATE DEPARTMENT MAKES FIRST-EVER ANTIFA FOREIGN TERRORIST DESIGNATIONS ACROSS EUROPE

According to the Associated Press, officers used pepper spray after stones were thrown at them at one location, police said. They also used water cannons to clear a blockade by about 2,000 protesters after they ignored calls to leave. They did so again Saturday afternoon as a group tried to break through barriers toward the city’s convention center. Police said up to 6,000 officers were deployed, and 10 to 15 were slightly injured.
The former U.S. ambassador to Germany during the first administration, Richard Grenell, warned on X about the dangers of the anti-democratic left in the Federal Republic of Germany. He wrote:» The intolerant and violent Left is gaining ground in Germany. If they follow the U.S. left then they will promote deadly violence while also losing public support — and elections. But they won’t see the errors of their ways because the German left gets lots of support from the media in Germany. It’s publicly funded, too. The conservative media is small and timid — but growing fast.»
ABBOTT ORDERS TEXAS NATIONAL GUARD TO AUSTIN IN ADVANCE OF ‘ANTIFA-LINKED PROTEST’
Boris Rhein, the Christian Democratic Union governor of the state of Hesse, criticized the attacks on police and the attempt to torpedo the AfD youth event. «The use of violence and attempts to prevent assemblies through marches can never be democratic means,» said Rhein.
The AfD scored an impressive second place election result in February, securing 20.8% of the vote. However, the mainstream German parties refused to form a coalition with the AfD because of what they said were its extremist views.

The youth division of the AfD elected 28-year-old Jean-Pascal Hohm as its chairman. According to an article in the German paper Die Welt, a local intelligence report quoted him as expressing anti-immigrant and nationalist views. «We will fight resolutely for a genuine shift in migration policy that ensures Germany remains the homeland of Germans, «Hohm said at the start of the conference.
The creation of Generation Deutschland unfolded after Germany’s federal intelligence agency classified the previous AfD youth chapter, Young Alternative, as an «extremist organization» in 2023, causing its dissolution.

AfD portrays itself as an anti-establishment force at a time of low trust in politicians. It first entered the national parliament in 2017 following the arrival of large numbers of migrants in the mid-2010s. Curbing migration remains its signature theme, but it has shown a talent for capitalizing on discontent about other issues too. That was reflected in leaders’ confident tone Saturday.
