I am really tired of this BS where people are taken advantage of (or sell out) by/to Trump or RFK Jr.

A simple proposal for federal judges frustrated that Trump Regime isn’t freeing people in response to habeas corpus orders:
Order that DHS bring each individual to court for their habeas hearing. If the judge grants habeas, the petitioner walks out free.
Bonus: huge pre-hearing burden on feds.

I am far from a policy expert, but I have seen enough about law enforcement entities to know what does *not* work. And everything about this thread on the impossibility of "reforming" DHS and ICE is spot on.
So many DHS/ICE "reform" ideas floating around as the budget fight in Congress develops.
From 2010-2014, I helped negotiate & enforce consent decrees relating to racist/violent police agencies across the country as part of the U.S DOJ's Civil Rights Division (RIP!).
Here are my general thoughts.

If anyone was wondering, the ~23% reduction in ICE agents in Minnesota apparently doesn't include the ones down the street that are lurking, now as I type this, as vulnerable folks are getting their kids to the school bus this morning.
We cannot rest until ICE is gone, entirely.
