Welp they're doing the Roosevelt Reservation crazy strategy, giving the military "jurisdiction" over a 60-foot-wide stretch of land from CA to AZ, authorizing troops to detain migrants for "trespassing on military property," thus trying to bypass the Posse Commitatus Act. It's bad and dumb, folks.

I still don't understand why SCOTUS just lets DOJ say that sending immigrants to a brutal foreign prison with no due process is "foreign policy." It really isn't! It turns an easy due process case into a much more difficult separation of powers case. (Hey -- maybe I just answered my own question!)

This is naked corruption that uses federal policy to pour money into the pockets of the President's largest campaign donor. Forcing the nation's 70-some million Social Security recipients to sign up for the website owned by a Nazi saluting billionaire is outrageous.

WHOA. Trump will strip Temporary Protected Status from thousands of AFGHANS, at a time when the Taliban is fully in control of the country and carrying out total oppression. If any country deservers TPS, it's obviously Afghanistan! We're going to send women back there to be treated as property?

WOW. ICE essentially admits to having fraudulently obtained a criminal warrant against Columbia University for an "investigation" for "harboring" undocumented immigrants while seeking to arrest Yunseo Chung, who has a green card! You can't "harbor" someone here legally!

Another huge breakthrough in our understanding of how the administration has implemented the Alien Enemies Act. I think it’s worth underlining that the press has consistently moved this story forward and has done so much to advance what we know.

1) yes absolutely, at a collective level, horrifying and bad. 2) at an individual level, I can guarantee you that some of these people are at _relatively_ low risk of retaliation, and are allowing their desire to avoid risk at all to stop them from speaking up for those at more risk.

The Smart People said "Abolish ICE" was too radical. Then ICE kidnapped students, sent innocent people to a mega prison, broke into a car to take a mom from her daughter, and tried questioning elementary kids while lying that they had parents permission. Ask yourself: which part is more "radical"?
