  1. Twice did not post any data, he posted a link to the detainer form itself which also had a link to a settlement explainer. In neither one is there any data that local jails are holding people regularly for months on ICE detainers. I welcome that data if it exists. It has not been provided and I haven’t seen it. https://immigrantjustice.org/wp-content/uploads/2025/05/gonzalez_settlement_explainer_4-16-25.pdf The executive branch does not have to pass a law for every action it takes to further efficiency in implementing laws Congress passed. I’m unaware of any decision holding the detainer request itself to be unconstitutional or illegal. I have seen some courts side with some plaintiffs, mostly after the 48 hour hold. I think that is separate from how any single administration misuses procedures.
  2. Well, the knights and royals were but the archers were good English and Welshmen.
  3. I think you are conflating the 48 hour detainer with actual ICE detention once removal proceedings are initiated. I do not see an epidemic of people held for months or weeks on ICE detainers in local jails. I think the burden needs to be on you to show some data that is actually happening with regularity.
  4. Not me. I’m more interested in whether Nolan can come up with material for a prequel.
  5. Because I was satisfied that this tool used by presidents Bush and Obama did not turn the U.S. into an authoritarian hellscape, and I believe that a lot of the meltdowns over it are what led to a very strong reaction the other way. I have a long enough memory to remember these accusations lobbed against Obama. I believe you are confusing advocacy with reality when it comes to the rationale for not cooperating on this stuff. I would happily settle for “48 hours, then you get cut loose. No extensions.” I’d happily settle for just a phone call (which many counties won’t do).
  6. A detainer for 48 hours is not “disappearing people” and have been executed for years under all sorts of administrations. It’s not a violation of due process. Now that is a fucking straw man. You do realize that actual deportation warrants aren’t signed by judges right?
  7. Feds enforcing no bare feet on planes?
  8. What if we just did the 48 hours that comes with a standard ICE hold, and maybe a phone call. Just try it on for size. Maybe only when the person has been arrested for a gun crime to start off. Are you serious with this? He was arrested on a gun charge, his victim got scared and fled the country, and he shot someone a day after getting out of jail.
  9. It didn’t get prosecuted bed cause the Fairfax DA regularly declines to prosecute cases for political reasons. He’s made it clear that putting people who do crimes in prison is a bigger problem than the crime they do. Deportation and detention by ICE is not a violation of due process. We do this regularly. We did it before Trump. We will do it after Trump. Sending something to CECOT is a violation of due process. Sending you to your home country, if you don’t have authorization to be in America, is not a violation of due process. It’s not even a criminal punishment. You seem to be under the impression that there is no happy medium between putting a bag on someone’s head and disappearing them forever and you know—- just putting people who don’t have a visa or or a green card and keep getting arrested on a plane back home. Seven strikes and you’re out maybe?
  10. A reminder that at Agincourt (my bad on Avignon), the English were shooting arrows at French people in France, which they had invaded.
  11. It is a neat trick for DAs to constantly drop charges on an unauthorized immigrant and then claim that it’s just prejudice and authoritarianism to want someone to be in jail and/or deported.
  12. Trump has the soul of a mentally defective European autocrat elevated beyond his competence. Fredrick William of Prussia tried to get really tall soldiers from all over Europe and breed them with tall women to make a giant army. Someone should suggest this to distract DJT from defense procurement.
  13. Can you explain what right would have been violated by calling ICE and having this person removed before he killed someone instead of after? You can just put criminals in jail and deport non-authorized immigrants who keep getting arrested. It’s really fine.
  14. It is very depressing to see the ensouled and virtuous warhorse, even if Russian, destroyed by the sterile and anodyne FPV drone. Like the flower of French nobility falling to arrows loosed by coarse English yeomen at Avignon. One more reason to despise the Kremlin.
  15. There’s simply nothing to do with illegal immigrants who keep getting arrested over and over and over and over and over and over and over. Lots of second guessing, maybe the seventh time is a charm. Nothing would stick. Also, we are really committed to building community trust, so much so that we promise we won’t call la migra on suspected gun felons who frighten victims into leaving the country unless we ABSOLUTELY are required to by law. If we don’t have to, we won’t. That’s how committed we are to community trust. What is the motivation here to look for ways to excuse the clearly inexcusable? If you are looking for how democracy dies, then admissions that it cannot be used to deliver even the bare minimum of functional governance, and that failure is preferable is a good place to start. I promise there were ample opportunities to jail or remove this person without violating any fundamental rights.
