Immergut: I'm handling this on expedited basis, but defendants haven't provided new info.

SHE RULES FROM THE BENCH: I grant the plaintiffs motion for a second TRO based on reasons stated in previous order...

This evening, President Trump is ordering 400 members of the Texas National Guard for deployments to Illinois, Oregon, and other locations within the United States. No officials from the federal government called me directly to discuss or coordinate.

Trump is laying the groundwork to come after your Social Security if he shuts the government down

Let It Happen Early this afternoon, multiple federal departments and agencies sent out an email...

BREAKING NEWS: Oregon sues Trump administration over unlawful federalization of National Guard. Read more.

Supposedly Oregon. They will lose in court again though. Dan better be ready to file.

This is literally what the actual "siege" of the auxiliary ICE building looks like

Hence the question. Right now more than ever it is incredibly important that our elected leaders Lead. We’ve seen this in Chicago & California. We have had the benefit of example to prepare. Telling citizens to sit back w/o a plan is unwise. We need to see a clear message directed to the aggressor.

So… What’s the plan?

So… what’s the plan?

Did not expect to wake up and read about West Virginia invading DC.

And we will now have to do what Argentinians did

Hmm, the route was routed to the more efficient reroute of the route. The items are no longer in the warehouse so does it matter if they never arrived at the incinerator?

Fully armed, machine gun mounted militarized federal law enforcement personnel raided a peaceful park in Los Angeles where kids were enjoying summer camp.

Weirdly none of the elite political news outlets (ie POLITICO, AXIOS etc) in DC didn't cover this craziness in their afternoon newsletters? Why?

Great so how do you begin introducing legislation that chips away at the worst of this bill?

Great speech , now how do we get pieces of legislation introduced rolling back the worst of this bill?

So when do we start seeing legislation introduced to roll back the worst of this? Reintroduce funding for Medicaid and snap? Find ways to limit how ICE can operate and how those dollars can be allocated. Start making them decide these items one at a time.

Yes thank you. Now when we do start seeing legislation introduced to start chipping away at the worst of this bill. Introducing strict rules for ICE officers, end their ability to hire bounty hunters, limit how they can spend those dollars. Start restoring Medicaid services and food benefits?

So when do we start seeing legislation being introduced to chip away at the worst of this bill?

A crisp clear view of divergent paths, thaw it now or settle in for a long winter filled with lost innocence. As history is drafted who will I be, a light shining bright or one who refused to see?

Will I be brave enough to wrap those in need in a warm embrace or will I hide my eyes pretending not to see as the cold crystals spread around me. The slippery ground beneath our feet every step more perilous than the last.

Who will I be when they come. Will the flame struck in the city of angels still burn deep within me when frozen winds blow across my community. Am I strong enough to spread that flame into a fire burning bright, wielding it in a way to protect those around me from the frostbite.

Maybe some of us should just become “nice agents” where we escort people safely home. They don’t have a uniform, or paperwork, or identification, who’s going to question us, just saying…

They also would get congressional approval to authorize such things once upon a time. We are living in the upside down.

Shameful. This guy is so earnest and patient in describing what happened—something truly un-American. I hope his girlfriend and the family behind them are okay.
