When it’s over anyone who worked for OR COLLABORATED WITH ICE or homeland security in general should be kept on a registry for the rest of their lives.

Some weirdo on Twitter has been absolutely melting down for like 36 straight hours because I posted:

When this is over, do not forget what ICE did, and what ICE is. And do not make room for them in society. Make sure they know that they are, and will continue to be, reviled and beneath contempt.

Also: if you work for ICE, even if you’re not one of the ones arresting citizens or tackling 15-year-olds or zip-tying kids together and segregating them by race, you’re part of the mechanism making it happen, and you should suffer long-term social and post-regime-change consequences.

Not a lawyer, so I'm not familiar with contemporary discourse on the topic, but there oughta be a cost imposed on law enforcement when an arrest doesn't result in charges.

It was a wrongful arrest. That should be illegal. THAT should result in charges against the arresting officers.

Jacqueline Sweet @jsweetli.bsky.social · 1d

WGN, this woman’s employer, is now reporting she was not charged with any crimes and was released.

DHS said earlier she was arrested for assault for throwing objects at agents.

David Simon, creator of ‘The Wire’, being interviewed by Ari Shapiro (NPR)

SHAPIRO: OK, so you've spent your career creating television without Al, and I could imagine today you thinking, boy, I wish I had had that tool to solve those thorny problems...
SIMON: What?
SHAPIRO: ...Or saying...
SIMON: You imagine that?
SHAPIRO: ...Boy, if that had existed, it would have screwed me over.
SIMON: I don't think Al can remotely challenge what writers do at a fundamentally creative level.
SHAPIRO: But if you're trying to transition from scene five to scene six, and you're stuck with that transition, you could imagine plugging that portion of the script into an Al and say, give me 10 ideas for how to transition this.
SIMON: I'd rather put a gun in my mouth.

Ultimately…the worst Trump could do is execute you. You could die. Each one of us already has that outcome etched on our schedule. There’s no escape. Be more afraid of dying a coward.
