In the wake of what Judge Dugan did (100% legal), now is a good time for everyone to know what she knows:
An immigration or administrative warrant is *not* a judicial warrant. You are not obliged to obey it. Indeed, you can let the person out the back door. docs.google.com/presentation...

- theyβre snatching innocent people off the streets
- theyβre deporting people to supermax prisons solely because they have tattoos

- Republicans are fine with all this
