It’s this endless feedback loop of self-radicalization built around some of the most toxic personalities I’ve ever encountered. It would be nice to talk about politics without being in a blizzard of seething hatred and abuse all the time!

Though federal officers can’t be sued under civil rights law, which only apply to state officers, @aclu sues them here as *conspirators* with state officers. (It was a joint task force.) Individ plaintiffs also sue under Federal Tort Claims Act.

Complaint alleges officers descended on the families, guns drawn, with a helicopter, 2 drones, 5 armed vehicles, rifles, tasers, pepper balls. They allegedly grouped the Latinos (mostly ethnically Mexican) by skin color as a proxy for presumptive citizenship. No water, few bathrooms.

Why is it always Labour's fault? Why don't you call for people inciting racial hatred to be arrested?
If no one supports Labour they won't have the strength behind them to challenge these racists so you will be aiding and abetting through inaction or wrong actions.
We all have responsibility.

UPDATE: Newest DOJ/DHS effort to block congressional oversight visits to immigration detention facilities launched on Valentine's Day. It's not a new one, it's a renewal of the "because of the (latest) shutdown, there is no 527, so we can't violate 527, so there is nothing to enjoin" argument.
