Immigration

It's not a "RealID" and they can't get on a plane and it doesn't get them a voter registration, but at least they can get to work and back.

Plus, there's been basic assessment of their ability to drive, their knowledge of the rules of the road, and their vision. In theory, we're all safer and the DMV is better funded.

Schwarzenegger was asked The View's co-host Joy Behar about his reaction to "What ICE is doing."

"Those people that are doing things illegal, and they're the foreigners, they are not smart. When you come to America, you're a guest and you have to behave like a guest."

The Bigot in Chief loses again:

Judge blocks Trump administration from ending protections for 60,000 from Central America and Nepal

A federal judge ruled on Thursday against the Trump administration's plans and extended Temporary Protected Status for 60,000 people from Central America and Asia, including people from Nepal, Honduras and Nicaragua....

U.S. District Judge Trina L. Thompson in San Francisco did not set an expiration date but rather ruled to keep the protections in place while the case proceeds. The next hearing is Nov. 18.

In a sharply written order, Thompson said the administration ended the migrant status protections without an “objective review of the country conditions” such as political violence in Honduras and the impact of recent hurricanes and storms in Nicaragua....

“The freedom to live fearlessly, the opportunity of liberty, and the American dream. That is all Plaintiffs seek. Instead, they are told to atone for their race, leave because of their names, and purify their blood,” Thompson said.

Lawyers for the National TPS Alliance argued that Noem’s decisions were predetermined by President Donald Trump’s campaign promises and motivated by racial animus.

Thompson agreed, saying that statements Noem and Trump have made perpetuated the "discriminatory belief that certain immigrant populations will replace the white population.”

“Color is neither a poison nor a crime,” she wrote.

FU DonOLD!

... The Trump administration has already terminated protections for about 350,000 Venezuelans, 500,000 Haitians, more than 160,000 Ukrainians and thousands of people from Afghanistan and Cameroon. Some have pending lawsuits at federal courts....

Florida GOP removes new immigration merchandise after Home Depot objects

The Republican Party of Florida on Saturday removed a line of deportation-themed shirts, hats and other tchotchkes for sale on its website that mimicked The Home Depot’s logo.

The party’s line of “The Deport Depot” merch was themed on the new immigrant detention center Gov. Ron DeSantis unveiled this week that he called “Deportation Depot.”

But the items bore a logo with the same recognizable orange box and stenciled font as the one belonging to The Home Depot.

Home Depot spokesperson Beth Marlowe said late Friday that the company had not approved the party to use its branding or logo....

MAGA bigotry = Mean-spirited, uncreative thievery

[O Really]

MAGA bigotry = Mean-spirited, uncreative thievery

Unchecked cruelty, just for its own sake, too.

So I followed MAGA's ummm "thought process" about immigrant treatment where they rely exclusively on "b-b-b-but they're ILLEGAL" and applied it to other comparable situations. F'rinstance, a guy steals a laptop out of Bestbuy. They didn't catch him, but got him on surveillance camera. Cops identify him and shoot him in the street while he's playing catch with his kid. MAGA - that's fine because he's a CRIMINAL. (nevermind that he's not actually a CRIMINAL until he's convicted, but that's another issue)

I thought I was exaggerating and then I see the stories of more frequent questionable traffic stops where severe cop violence arises out of basically nowhere. But that's OK because he "didn't respond to commands immediately" and lots of otherwise sane citizens approve.

The whole deal with immigration isn't whether or not a person is properly documented or whether an unproperly documented person should be deported - it's a matter of simply following the law while enforcing it. A person snuck in to the US 15 years ago and has been undocumented but productively working ever since and is now a lead gardener for a landscaping service. So you catch him and are going to deport him. He's been here 15 years - is it really necessary to not give him reasonable time to settle his life here before being sent away? Is his "crime" really equivalent to that of a violent offender?

The country is truly screwed, and it's good to be old.

Jackboots are real.

Expect a lot more "incidents" like this.

Federal agents open fire at San Bernardino family during enforcement operation, DHS says
US Customs and Border Protection officers opened fire during a targeted immigration enforcement operation in San Bernadino, California, on Saturday, calling it an act of self-defense after a man “struck two CBP officers with his vehicle,” the Department of Homeland Security said.

But the family inside the vehicle said they drove away out of fear for their safety after masked men emerged from unmarked cars and surrounded their truck with weapons drawn before smashing the truck’s windows.



One of these days an ICE agents is gonna get killed.

That's when they'll really go apeshit.

Maine police officer arrested by ICE agrees to voluntarily leave the country



... Evans' arrest touched off a dispute between Old Orchard Beach officials and ICE. Police Chief Elise Chard has said the department was notified by federal officials that Evans was legally permitted to work in the country, and that the town submitted information via the Department of Homeland Security’s E-Verify program prior to Evans’ employment. Assistant Secretary of Homeland Security Tricia McLaughlin then accused the town of “reckless reliance” on the department's E-Verify program....

Making America safer? No word on whether Old Orchard Beach's other Black is considering police work.

Maryland pastor returns home a month after being detained by ICE agents

... Fuentes Espinal is a pastor at Iglesia Del Nazareno Jesus Te Ama and a construction worker. He has lived in the U.S. since 2001 and does not have a criminal record, according to Foxwell....

"They actually charge $50 for a phone call for a family that's already lost their primary breadwinner. That's a huge financial hit," he said....

The pastor has been law abiding for 2 decades, ICE are thieves. Irony.
