Law is meaningless scribbles on paper, unless people are willing to protect, defend and enforce not only its letter, but the intent behind it.

That is NOT gonna happen in the #TurdReich lawless dictatorship.

People will be kidnapped by the #ICE #CBP #gestapo, taken to some magaty area where "courts" will robo-sign whatever Stephen Miller sends them.

Anyone with delusions of "due process" from a mobster state is clearly addled, or blinded by their privilege, in terminal naivete.

@PDFlynn naturalized citizen, here. Not white. Veteran, deployed multiple times.

None of that made me feel ANY safer.

Nihil, nada, zip, zilch.

They'll move people to the accursed MAGAty shitholes of texas (no capital letters, thanks), where illegitimate kangaroo maga courts with repugnant appointed judges will simply deny everything through "due process"

Doesn't make much sense to privileged white people, I guess.

Lawyers are getting targeted for handling issues the fascist administration disagree with.

Oh great, the Supreme Court responded to the Trump administration's request to delay Kilmar Abrego Garcia's return and the Supreme Court just ruled today that he doesn't have to be returned yet.

Lawyers in the case have 24hours to submit additional arguments to the SCOTUS.

Also, these reporters need to stop saying people were "mistakenly" deported, absolutely journalist malpractice.

If anyone from anywhere can be arrested and detained in the US for having an opinion critical of politicians and government policies, that will make a lot of people think twice about going there.

Finally, a judge is demanding the return of a man illegally deported to El Salvador. The judge says he must be returned to the US by next week. The Trump administration is showing no signs of complying with the order and have made the usual offensive maga vommit.

None the less a critical showdown is brewing that will show if the courts have any power to stop this crap.

Tech-washing / Google quietly building Trump's AI surveillance wall

Despite previous assurances from #Google Cloud CEO Thomas Kurian in 2020 that Google was "not working on any projects associated with immigration enforcement at the southern border," contract documents show Google is now central to a #CBP project upgrading video surveillance towers in #Arizona.

Update: Man seen driving fake ICE vehicle in Fife WA has been arrested and charged with 2nd degree criminal impersonation.

The man claims he did it for his youtube channel, which is also how cops located him, bc he posted videos staging fake ICE arrests(uniform n all) with the same vehicle.🥴

The car was also driven on public streets with no plates and had misspellings in the ICE emblem.

I can NOT overstate how important this case, and the similar, parallel ones are.

This is a trial balloon by the nazi fash regime, trying to bulldoze civil liberties and rights.

If they disobey the Court, it's revolution, in one way or another, with varying degrees of blood. If they get away with it, it's the end of civil society.
