One of the things that makes me extremely insane about Blue Sky is the significant ignorance of the history of the immigration system in this country. ICE wasn't called ICE until 2003 but cruel and capricious immigration laws have always existed in this county. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Operati...

I’m in @newrepublic.com trying to answer some basic questions that a lot of folks have had about at-large immigration arrests: can agents be masked? Must they show warrants? Is any of this legal? I do my best to explain

Being a mom in the federal government wasn’t easy. Trump made it “impossible.”

Do you think this sounds a little like posturing by the company to use the ban of a product Americans like to turn them against Democrats? No mention of Trump administration which will start in 2 days. Blaming it all on Biden's "shortfalls."
Breaking news: TikTok said the app will have to “go dark” in the United States on Sunday barring a last-minute intervention from the Biden administration to halt enforcement of a federal ban.
