Julio Cesar Chavez Jr. immediately arrested in Mexico after U.S. deportation, being held in maximum-security prison
Julio César Chávez Jr. has been deported from the United States to his native Mexico, where the boxer was immediately arrested and jailed in Sonora. Chávez was initially arrested by Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agents in early July — just four days after losing a unanimous decision to Jake Paul — in Studio City, California for overstaying his visa and lying on a green-card application. He was detained in the United States for more than a month before he could be deported Monday and arrested in Mexico for alleged involvement in organized crime and trafficking firearms, ammunition and explosives. It is claimed that the four-year-long investigation into Chávez began in 2019 and found him to have ties to the Sinaloa Cartel, with an warrant issued for his arrest in Mexico in 2023. Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum confirmed Chávez's deportation on Tuesday to reporters. Chávez Jr. is currently being held in a federal maximum-security prison in Hermosillo, Sonora. Chávez, a former WBC middleweight champion, is the son of the legendary boxer Julio César Chávez Sr. He famously battled Saul "Canelo" Alvarez in 2017 but lost handily in the all-Mexican affair. Recently, Chávez Jr. has been battling alcohol addiction and has competed at a lower level since quitting on the stool against Daniel Jacobs in 2019. Chávez's loss to Paul was a disappointment for many boxing purists as the former champion was reluctant to engage for much of the contest, though when he did let his hands go in the final couple of rounds, he had success — leading many to feel that if he had began the fight with the intent to win, rather than survive, he might've emerged victorious against Paul.

MTG Has Heard About the Israeli Cyber Official Arrested for Alleged Child Sex Crimes, and She Isn't Happy
Marjorie Taylor Greene has weighed in on the recent arrest of a high-level Israeli official over alleged involvement in child sex crimes, adding to the Trump administration's headaches as it attempts to navigate the growing scandal. Tom Artiom Alexandrovich, a man who has been identified as a high-ranking member of Israel's National Cyber Directorate, was arrested recently in a sting operation in Las Vegas. The sting operation, which was jointly run by the FBI and local police, targeted child sex predators. New details about Alexandrovich's arrest have been reported over the past day. CBS affiliate KLAS has reported that Alexandrovich was in Las Vegas for the cybersecurity conference Blackhat, and that, during that time, he is alleged to have chatted online with a 'decoy'—an undercover cop posing as a 15-year-old girl—according to documents viewed by the news outlet. Using the dating app Pure, the two discussed meeting up for 'sexual contact,' the outlet says. Police told KLAS: 'The sexual contact included bringing a condom and taking the decoy to [a] 'Cirque du Soleil'' show. According to the report, Alexandrovich told police that he 'believed the girl he was chatting with was 18.' Identification of a high-level Israeli official ensnared in the operation has been bad enough, but things grew more complicated when Alexandrovich reportedly managed to get on a plane and fly back to Israel. On Tuesday, Greene blasted the U.S. State Department and seemed to insinuate that the government had not done enough to ensure that Alexandrovich was prosecuted. 'Would it be antisemitic to drag Netanyahu's Cyber Executive Director back and prosecute this pos to the full extent of the law and at the same time let Palestinian kids who had their limbs and bodies blown apart receive surgeries in America,' Green asked. Greene has been critical of the Israeli government, as well as critical of the U.S.'s support for Israel. Green went on: The most concerning question is when and how did America become so subservient to Israel that we immediately release a CHILD SEX PREDATOR after arrest, with a 100% locked up case with evidence, and let him off to fly back home to Israel?? Would we do that with a Mexican child sex predator? Chinese child sex predator? Any other country's child sex predator? There have been unsubstantiated internet rumors that the Trump administration intervened on behalf of Alexandrovich to allow him safe passage back to Israel. The government has denied these allegations. 'The Department of State is aware that Tom Artiom Alexandrovich, an Israeli citizen, was arrested in Las Vegas and given a court date for charges related to soliciting sex electronically from a minor,' the agency's Near East Division recently stated. 'He did not claim diplomatic immunity and was released by a state judge pending a court date. Any claims that the U.S. government intervened are false.' Greene's stances on Israel are representative of a broader fissure in the MAGA base that the Trump administration doesn't seem to know how to mend. MAGA has been pissed about a lot of things lately: the Jeffrey Epstein files (which, some people believe, are also Israel-related), the economy, and, now, many are increasingly pissed about the administration's undying support for the Netanyahu government as it destroys the Gazan population. It's unclear what will abate the anger. One thing is for sure, the administration's ongoing attempts to throw focus on some old scandal or a manufactured moral panic don't seem to be bearing much fruit.

Boxer Julio César Chávez Jr. detained in Mexico after deportation for alleged cartel ties
Boxer Julio César Chávez Jr. has been deported to Mexico, where he's wanted for alleged cartel ties, following his arrest in the U.S. for overstaying his visa and lying on a green card application. Chávez was handed over by authorities and admitted to a prison in the northern state of Sonora, an official told The Associated Press on condition of anonymity Tuesday because they were not authorized to speak publicly about the matter. Chávez, 39, had a warrant for his arrest in Mexico for alleged arms and drug trafficking and ties to the Sinaloa Cartel, which the Trump administration designated a foreign terror organization in February. Alejandro Gertz Manero, Mexico's attorney general, said the investigation into Chávez started in 2019. Chávez is a Mexican citizen and a former WBC middleweight world champion. U.S. immigration officials arrested Chávez July 2 in Los Angeles — days after his high-profile fight with Jake Paul — for overstaying his visa and lying on a green card application. Chávez was detained in front of his home and was set to be deported to Mexico, authorities said last month. The Department of Homeland Security said last month that Chávez overstayed a tourist visa that he entered the U.S. with in August 2023, which expired in February 2024. DHS said Chávez submitted multiple fraudulent statements when he applied for permanent residency on April 2, 2024, based on his marriage to a U.S. citizen, Frida Muñoz. Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum said after the arrest she hoped the boxer would be deported to face his charges. In a news conference earlier Tuesday, Sheinbaum was asked about Chávez's deportation. "I understand he was deported," Sheinbaum told reporters. "I don't know if it was yesterday or this morning. But they told us he will come to Mexico." Chávez is the son of legendary Mexican boxer Julio César Chávez. His father was a massive celebrity in the 1980s and 1990s who mixed social circles with drug dealers and claimed to have been friends with drug lord Amado Carrillo Fuentes. The younger Chávez has battled drug addiction for much of his boxing career, failing drug tests, serving suspensions and egregiously missing weight while being widely criticized for his intermittent dedication to the sport. Chavez won the WBC middleweight title in 2011 and defended it three times. He shared the ring with generational greats Canelo Álvarez and Sergio Martinez, losing to both. In 2012, he was convicted of drunken driving in L.A. and sentenced to 13 days in jail. In January 2024, he was arrested on gun charges. Police said he possessed two AR-style ghost rifles. He was later freed on a $50,000 bond and on condition he went to a residential drug treatment facility. The case is still pending, with Chávez reporting his progress regularly.
