WOW. A federal judge says he's going to issue a Temporary Restraining Order requiring ICE to make changes at the Broadview facility in Chicago, a facility that until January was only for stays under 12 hours "absent exceptional circumstances," but has become, in Judge Gettleman's words, "a prison."

They aren't complying with discovery because if they did, it would lead to disclosure of materials that establish beyond any doubt James' case on vindictive prosecution. The sanction for noncompliance is that the court accepts this inference. The case should then be dismissed, very quickly, too.

How Trump is Building a Violent, Shadowy Federal Police Force
Trumpβs DHS appointees have dismantled civil rights guardrails, protected agentsβ anonymity and encouraged them to wear masks, threatened groups that stood in their way, and overwhelmed legal challeng...
Six months after ICE apprehended 47 people, including nine kids, in Hays County, Tex., County Judge Ruben Becerra says DHS has ignored his attempts to get answers:
βWeβre not told why they took them, and weβre not told where they took them. By definition, thatβs a kidnapping.β

No FBI agent or federal prosecutor will now ever dare to investigate a Republican, a MAGA figure, or anyone with any connection to Trump, his family, or his businesses. To even look in the direction of such a possible target would be career suicide.

Republicans BLOCKED it. So Trump won't use emergency funds to keep SNAP running, and Republicans won't let any bills pass. Shameful.

DOJ places on leave 2 prosecutors who said 'mob' of 'rioters' carried out Jan. 6 attack
Two federal prosecutors have been told they will be put on leave after filing a brief that described the Jan. 6, 2021, attackers a "mob of rioters," sources say.
Career prosecutors were put on leave, allegedly for stating the truth about J6. The Administration is working overtime to erase history. Itβs incumbent upon all of us to document truth, preserve historical record, and stand firm against efforts to replace facts.

They want community members too afraid to resist out of fear that they might be next.
