They just tried to break into a restaurant in Minneapolis that was only letting people in with reservations. No warrant, no pc. My husband is a lawyer and after calling an AUSA he knows, was finally able to get rid of them. He was commenting how dumb they are

What a disgrace. ICE may have handed a suspect in the largest jewelry heist in American history a free pass by deporting him before he ever faced trial. This is the result of Stephen Miller’s chaos. Reckless mismanagement that undermines public safety and makes a mockery of the justice system.

By the way, for those of you not in MN: Homan’s strategy was to withdraw some agents, so it felt like we were in the denouement of the crisis, and then escalate hard against observers. They’re being incredibly aggressive with observers now. National media may not want to check out just yet

This is why the 4th Amendment says “no person” — instead of “no citizen.” If only citizens have rights, then no one has rights because all they have to do is say you’re not a citizen and then you have no right to prove otherwise.
