“Obey federal officers and you get to keep your life” isn’t a slogan. It’s a threat.

Any party that thinks survival is something the state grants you has no business calling itself American.

This is 10-year-old Karla Herrara

Her father Tiul Caal has been in Spokane for six years, and is her only family in the United States

He has an immigration case set for 2027, a valid work permit, and a social security number

CBP coerced him into bringing Karla in, then sent both to Texas

Things worth really hammering to any family and acquaintances whose reflexive attitude is “but we gotta enforce the law”:
(1) Lots of the folks being targeted came here legally; the administration has retroactively declared them “illegal” despite having done nothing wrong
Venezuelan family seeking asylum -- entered legally, both parents with college degrees -- took their 7-year-old to the ER for a nosebleed and fever. ICE, which is now targeting hospitals as well as churches schools, blocked the child from getting care and detained them instead
The parents of a 7 year old, all of whom are in the process of applying for asylum, took their daughter to the ER when her nose wouldn't stop bleeding. ICE picked them up near the hospital and they are now in detention in Texas, presumably awaiting deportation. www.oregonlive.com/portland/202...

The conventional wisdom is that this is an unfortunate byproduct of the Constitution, and there's nothing other than impeachment to be done.

But is that *really* true? What if we approached it like the right-wing legal establishment?

The men who put them back in shackles after those two women saved their comrade's life should heavily consider their honor and that the price of redeeming it is much cheaper on Earth than it is in Hell.
Two women trained as first responders were abducted by three ICE agents. One of the agents starts seizing. The other two don’t know what to do. The women jump into action and save the agent’s life, only to be re-handcuffed and processed.

Detained by ICE, two women became first responders during agent’s seizure
The women say they guided agents through the emergency, later raising concerns about medical protocols, weapons safety and accountability.

Respectfully, look at this fucking bullshit that we’re dealing with, not a single person here has “taken the bait.” We have born witness as little kids are used as bait and neighbors are kidnapped on our streets. A mad dipshit is going to invoke the Insurrection Act regardless and you are blaming us
Violence only helps Trump & may provide him an excuse to further trample our rights by invoking the Insurrection Act.

it's never the crazy weird conspiracy theory weapons. they are poisoning you with toxins they are well-documented to have. they are beating you with ordinary sticks and shooting you with ordinary guns

the only conspiracy is how they gained legal immunity to do this
My group was able to recover a spent canister from a green smoke grenade in Minneapolis. We now confirm with physical evidence that it was a green signaling grenade.

Please don't spread rumors about hexachloroethane or nerve agents.

Law is a technology, and it has saved easily as many lives as antibiotics.
Like, in a very elemental anthropological way, we have laws for a reason, and it's because people won't tolerate it otherwise

The solution to blood feuds was never "well you should just not get so mad when someone you love is murdered." It was the law, it was justice
the uvalde cop scum were acquitted because the law favors cop scum, and while i do respect and value the rule of law, if this is where it ends, either the law is going to have to change or our acceptance of the law is going to have to change, and you do not need a telescope to see the danger here
