There needs to be far, far more shaming for people helping this administration's terror campaign.
Whether in the courts, as ICE agents, or working on the Project 2025 policy side - don't touch them, but hound them, scream at them, and make sure they feel the fear they're inflicting on Americans.

In theory, standing is a constitutional requirement for suing in federal court
In reality, the Republicans on the Supreme Court just use standing to make sure people they like can do anything they want, and people they don’t like can’t do anything about it

The Supreme Court Just Made It Easier For Republicans to Challenge Election Rules They Don’t Like
There are many cases the justices don’t think belong in federal courts. A Republican attacking mail-in ballots is not one of them.

The moral panic over the existence of trans people isn't just aimed at Republicans, though. Basic legal protections for trans people are now less popular *among Democrats* than they were three years ago. An unconsionable failure of Democratic leadership. ballsandstrikes.org/law-politics...

this is all to say that should democrats win the house and senate this november, they should hold similarly dramatic — which is to say televised and highly publicized — hearings on the conduct of ICE and CBP, with testimony from victims. we want as much of *this* as possible in the record. (3/?)
ICE detained Arlit Maria Martinez on her way to work. 2 days later, her 15 yo son died of cancer. They wouldn't let her out to say goodbye. The family had planned to move back to Mexico prior to the cancer diagnosis but stayed for his treatment. Now, Mr Martinez has lost his wife to ICE & his son.
Teen dies of cancer days after mother arrested by ICE: ‘She’s never gonna see him’
The mother's family pleaded with federal officers for her release from custody to say her final goodbyes to her son, but their requests went unanswered.
