Fellow lawyer friend of mine who does Immigration in #LosAngeles sent this. #ICE is denying people legal counsel; tear-gassing the lawyers they do allow; tear-gassing small kids. This is only the beginning; having basically memorized Project 2025, I can assure you, things only get worse. from here.
