#lawsky can anyone please cite the Constitutional or other legal provision that places an ICE hold above a judge’s determination of one’s US citizenship, esp when the person’s birth certificate clearly verifies US citizenship?

Why does the judge surrender her authority here?
🚨A U.S. born citizen was arrested in Florida for entering the state as an “unauthorized alien.” His mother and a community advocate showed his birth certificate during a hearing in Leon County. The judge said she had no authority to release him.

The only people I see actually fighting back are Chris Murphy and Pete. Others are speaking out, but not like these two. We need a coordinated Democratic response to what's happening, and it needed to start six weeks ago. Since it didn't, now would be great.

#InsurrectionAct
"The clock is ticking down on a crucial but little-noticed part of President Donald Trump’s first round of executive orders — the one tasking the secretaries of the [DOD] and [DHS] to submit a joint report, within 90 days, recommending 'whether to invoke the Insurrection Act.'"
Is Trump preparing to invoke the Insurrection Act? Signs are pointing that way
A joint Department of Defense and Homeland Security report will soon recommend whether or not to invoke the Insurrection Act over illegal migration.

MTG wants to control your access to information. Fight back by being well informed. Develop trusted sources of information. Do not let them keep you in the dark about what they are doing-that is the hope of dictators.

Trump’s “agenda includes not just emasculating the Senate’s advice-and-consent role but also refusing to spend money that lawmakers have appropriated, curbing the independence of federal regulatory agencies and eviscerating the nonpartisan civil service.”
