Immigration lawyer in SF. Every generation must fight to move society toward fairness & opportunity, ie, freedom. Our founders include Frederick Douglass, Susan B Anthony, FDR, MLK Jr, Cesar Chavez, not just old yt slaveholders. I don't DM, sorry.

DHS is spending millions and millions in cash on warehouses to cage people.
Is Congress just going to sit there and let the fascist Trump regime turn America into a nation of concentration camps?
@schumer.senate.gov
Graham objected to unanimous consent.
And he blocked the business of the Senate.
Any Senate Democrat could do this.

I wish I could believe this, but years of this have made me lose faith in defenders of Always Move Right Pundits.
After reading you murdoched WaPo-like defense of Schumer's latest gift to MAGA, no, I'm not signing up. The DC groupthink is thick enough already.
30.01.2026 08:21 โ ๐ 0 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 0 ๐ 0WTAF did Schumer actually get? "Don't deport USCs" - you think this is legal now??
"SOMETIMES get warrants" - more admin. warrants?
"coop w law enforcement" - Sec. 287 contracts?
"Make rules of conduct" - they F'ING EXIST NOW.
"Body cams" - you think these can't be turned off?
You can't be real
Schumer's asking to:
ยฐ require warrants in SOME cases & ICE coordination w actual law enforcement (287 agreements nationwide?)
ยฐ Create a code of conduct & enforce it (make me laugh!)
ยฐ Require agents to wear body cams, not masks (& turn them off as desired)
You call these "demands"?
F off!
Nobody from media seems to want to talk to progressives in any serious way and nobody ever pushes moderates and conservatives to try to understand us.

Iโve seen nothing but distain, and outright disrespect from them.
Why, since we are fighting for the same thing?
Progression of average citizens.
The difference, progressives want more, moderates want less.
For billionaires?
Jeezus F'ing Christ, Schumer, if you were paid by Putin to prop up Trump, would you do anything different from what you do now?

BTW, no ICE employee or Border Patrol has been killed by an immigrant. EVER! Yet they're dressed to fight ISIS.

Trump is a predator.
Minneapolis should press its momentum and demand not only withdrawal but start talking about the need for immediate reparations, loudly, with the total certainty that only winners have. "You have wronged us terribly and must pay recompense" and let them argue the second part.

It sounds like you're saying you believe that this regime WILL comply with a lawful court order. Dangerous for whom? ICE/CBP thugs who think they have license to kill?
Civilians would be foolhardy to think we can safely rely on the MAGA govt's good faith obedience of law. I'll follow LawDork to see
