to their credit, This American Life reported this well before the inauguration. They had an episode in which an expert was like "they'll start with people who are following the rules because they're easiest to find, which will allow them to brag about a high number of deportations quickly"
The administration is not targeting immigrants with violent records. They're targeting the immigrants who are easiest to get: those who show to court and follow the rules. It's a great way to ensure that undocumented people stop coming to court.
They're also already ensnaring U.S. citizens.

Genuinely insane that a major newsroom isn't running a live post today trying to verify what is and what isn't being impacted by the federal funding freeze. Embarrassing how bad the media response is to this.
Based on the frantic questions I've googled recently — "how do executive orders works," "can gay marriage be repealed," "what is the Office of Personnel Management," "do food stamps still work," — only to find nothing from media outlets, I'm ready to say the mainstream media is in serious trouble.
