Yes, and ICE is required by law to let them visit with no advance notice. ICE has been refusing access when they show up without warning.

You’re right. They were sent home by the courts, and had been limited to defense of federal buildings which as completely unnecessary.

There has not so far been a deployment of active-duty military against the American people. Courts sent the guard home when deployed by the President without permission of the state’s governor.

Edit: there was a deployment of Marines to Los Angeles, which was also ended by the courts

They joined ICE when it started using Nazi slogans as recruiting tools.

The not-nutty gun owners are showing up in public but staying back from the protests so that they can discourage ICE from massacres

What happened after it is that Schumer started sending out talking points which are entirely about affordability, with no mention of ICE. Formal standing is nil, but it seems to have gotten through somehow

Thank you!

Last one started with the south invading the north too

The people around him are equally awful. I don’t expect any great improvement in US policy from that kind of switch

Yes, most cops are cowards. They’re very uninterested in taking risks for the community, and would rather posture instead.

Make sure you tell them. Positive reinforcement helps

It’s not “if they have more force” but in a practical sense, its actually risky, and cops are incredibly wimpy

Local and state police are outnumbered by ICE + Border Patrol, and a fair fraction of them are on the side of ICE as well.

Only going to cost you one billion each. This time.

We could of course move to wind and solar. No more houses exploding from gas.

They’re not riskless; people can and do fall off the roof, but a bunch of the hazards just go away

Levying war against the United States doesnt only consist of instruction to massacre; it includes the whole military operation by active-duty troops. Don’t.

When you go past the headline, yes. The depiction of the oil industry as in decline and dangerous for both people working in it and around it is accurate

Sure, there is what is explicit, but they have access to the same news I do, and know what this is about. The US military isn’t operating in an information vacuum like the Soviet army in Budapest during the cold war who thought they were there to fight Americans

He telegraphed intent to attack Venezuela for months before actually sending the military to kidnap their president.

They know full well they’re going to Minnesota to kill a bunch of people for…blowing whistles.

Right move in that situation is ro refuse.
