Oh, homegrowns are next..?
“The DHS Office of the General Counsel, for example – responsible for assessing the legality, and litigation risk, of proposed policies — would be dissolved, with each agency at DHS instead housing (and in charge of) its own counselors. Both the immigration judges union and the USCIS union would be dissolved. USCIS would be reorganized to put the vetting agents in charge of the show, and decentralized so that scarcely any employees remained in DC full-time.
These changes – in addition to more sweeping proposals to allow political appointees much more leeway to fire career civil servants who didn’t follow the program (a proposal known as “Schedule F” when they tried it in 2020) — would have two essential functions for immigration policy. They would empower more hawkish employees on the ground, who might be more willing to arrest first and seek permission later, or to tell people that they couldn’t ask for asylum anymore.
Importantly, unlike regulations, changes like this aren’t easily visible to the public. Without transparency, it’s hard to know when the government is following the law – and what it thinks the law is.” @AIC talking about Project 2025’s anti immigration agenda.

Scary times with the fascists. We need more protests, more standing up to these people, more judges doing the right thing.

Big says,
ReplyDeleteThat vid pretty much sums it up. That's their plan: If you don't agree with them, they will aboloish you; dissent is illegal. MAGAts in FL have already begun trying to tell folks that making fun of --- or making disparaging remarks about --- Cheeto is "illegal."
XOXO
Terrifying.
ReplyDeleteI agree with all the above commenters on this. Of course, if if the fat ass would piss solely Arabia, iraq, russia, or one of the like far enough, I'm just hoping they drop a bomb on the White House and take care of all of them. I pity whoever comes in office next, like a Democrat. They are literally going to have to rebuild the whole entire country. I said it once I'll say it again I hope the bastards that voted for him or didn't vote or fucking happy.
ReplyDeleteICE, Trumpenführer’s Gestapo, how nice. :(
ReplyDeleteAnd yet we are letting it happen as they even take fully legal born in America citizens away with not one thread of accountability and co-opted legal recourse. I feel it’s going to be a long and very hot summer. And now they think attacking Iran will a cake walk. They said that about Iraq and Afghanistan, how did that turn out ?!
