The seizing of authority by the executive branch is something we have seen before in Latin America. Venezuela under Chavez, Ecuador under Correa, and Nicaragua under Ortega come to mind. The US is becoming a banana republic. Karma!

The new "Alien Registration Requirement" reminds me of the requirement for all Chinese to register with the government (1902) under penalty of deportation. As the guidance states, "failure to comply is treated as a civil and criminal enforcement priority." www.uscis.gov/alienregistr...

In what is a first for me, a DHS attorney accused me of bias in court because I was appointed to PCCEP, a community police oversight group, by the Portland mayor. Since Portland declared itself a Sanctuary City, the attorney argued, and I was appointed to a city group, I must be biased. Geez!

Republicans cut healthcare for the poor to pay for tax cuts for the rich and attacks on immigrants. In the process, they will increase the deficit by at least $2 billion. It’s the party of cruelty and fiscal irresponsibility. www.nytimes.com/2025/02/25/u...

5 million dollar gold cards for immigrants is Trump’s idea of immigration reform. Maybe he should sell get out of jail free cards too.

Judge issues Temporary Restraining Order on Trump's order to shut down the refugee program. Trump is losing in courts across the country, but for a man who considers himself above the law, this is to be expected. The only question is whether Trump will recognize the authority of the courts.

Judge issued Temporary Restraining Order on ICE, restricting immigrant arrests in churches. However, if ICE has an "administrative or judicial," they can still make arrests. In short, court stopped 2025 EO and returned 2021 guidance about "sensitive locations." www.dropbox.com/scl/fo/oz7vm...

Caging kids didn’t do it. Shutttering USAID didn’t do it. Ending birthright citizenship didn’t do it. Sending immigrants to Gitmo didn’t do it. But when wealthy people start losing money, the Dorito is gonna have some explaining to do. www.nytimes.com/2025/02/21/b...

Trump first falsely claims Haitian migrants are eating cats and dogs and then removes TPS for them. Dehumanizing migrants is the first step to denying them rights. www.nytimes.com/2025/02/20/u...

Turns out that Marx was wrong about history repeating itself first time as tragedy and second time as farce. The Trump presidency has reversed that. Trump 1.0 seems like an SNL skit compared to Trump 2.0.

Bottom line: Trump has ramped up interior ICE arrests, but not nearly at the levels promised, and the vast majority are not convicted criminals much less people who committed serious violent offenses. austinkocher.substack.com/p/ices-lates...

Adams going full-on Trump is allowing ICE into Rikers to avoid ending up there himself. If you gave me a script with this plotline, I would have rejected it as too far-fetched, but here we are.
