I think I've woken up to them outside the house twice now? I'm okay with it - time wasted trying to scare me is time spent not kidnapping a vulnerable neighbor.
Anyway if you go out at fuckass o'clock with your phone in one hand and a whistle ready in the other, they see you and leave lol.

For the first time since Jan. 5, there were no ICE flights out of Minneapolis Friday, probably because of this ruling.

Incredibly powerful opinion chronicling the awfulness in Whipple and the ways it interfered with the right to counsel.
One key part of the ruling (that ICE will likely appeal ASAP); Judge Brasel bars ICE from transferring anyone out of Minnesota within 72 hours of arrest.

i'm older than the DHS and have never seen it do anything good for The Average American (whatever that means) in my entire life. i have seen it be a big racism lever that every administration loves to pull like that dril tweet tho
DHS is just a relic from the overreaction to 9/11 and all the opportunistic skullduggery that took advantage of it. There was never any need for it. Let it be dead. Its abrupt dissolution will be a bit chaotic but fuck it we ball.

He clumsily read his speech from the page without hardly looking up and told everyone in the room to follow the US's lead or suck it. He accused Europe of managed decline by not being racist enough, and if it doesn't fall in line then America won't be there for it. Not sure how reassuring that is.
