ICE keeping the streets safe for you and me

Federal immigration officials have detained the husband of Huntington Hospital’s Chief of Medical Staff in downtown Los Angeles, where he has allegedly endured nearly two weeks of harsh treatment and insufficient medical care, according to a civil rights group’s statement released Thursday evening.

 

Tunisian immigrant Rami Othmane was taken into custody by U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents on July 13 while driving to a grocery store, the National Day Laborer Organizing Network said. His wife, Dr. Wafaa Alrashid, who oversees more than 1,000 physicians associated with Huntington Hospital, claims immigration officers blocked her husband’s car, did not present a warrant, and failed to identify themselves during the encounter.

There is no winner having Facebook. Enjoy arguing with bots and boomers 

sorry coming back to this late, I had to be on it for a fundraiser, it's still a good way to find and recruit your politically motivated middle agers and olds - GenX and boomers - they are still there. it sucked me back in, but then coming back from SMA worried about customs at the airport I deleted social media from my phone as a "just in case" and I haven't added it back. trying not to.

birthright citizenship is officially on the chopping block. The President of the United States is using the same mechanism used to pass slave status across generations, only applied to immigration status.

To that end, USCIS declared flatly that the children of immigrants who are “unlawfully present” will “no longer be U.S. citizens at birth.” They will, instead, inherit the status of their parents, rendering them detainable and deportable as infants and throughout their lives. There is no indication that the government will provide some grace period before snatching up and imprisoning this new underclass of noncitizen babies; they are apparently subject to arrest from the moment of birth.

...

The next section of the memo explains how the administration plans to deny citizenship to children born in the United States to parents who have “lawful but temporary” presence here. Trump’s order itself clarifies that kids whose parents have “a student, work, or tourist visa” would no longer be eligible for citizenship. But USCIS went much further, laying out a dozen other categories of immigrants whose offspring would be ensnared by the policy—even though their parents reside in the country legally. Its list includes immigrants who have received “withholding of removal” under the Convention Against Torture, immigrants granted Temporary Protected Status, and Dreamers protected by DACA. The agency left no stone unturned: It even declared that children of Micronesian parents fall under the order, even though Micronesians have every right to live and work in the U.S. under a 1986 treaty. (That treaty constituted a small reparation after the U.S. tested atomic weapons on Micronesia for more than a decade.)

How will the federal government know whether a baby’s parents have “lawful but temporary” status, rendering the child ineligible for citizenship? USCIS does not say, but there is only one possibility: The government will begin to demand to see every parent’s legal status before acknowledging their child as a U.S. citizen. Only babies with at least one parent who is a citizen or green-card holder will be recognized as American. All others will be excluded at birth.

That's the most awful thing about the holocaust. It was completely legal under German law. They went to extreme lengths to comply with (or change) the law to remove any potential sources of dissent to their genocide. 

The Wannsee Conference was just nine years after Germany legalized discrimination against Jews. Timeline-wise we're creeping up on that first mile marker pretty fast.

That’s the fun part - they’ll just say none of them, and if 10-20% get fought over in court and the government loses, that’s still 80-90% that don’t have citizenship

Writ large, that's kind of what's happening across the board. The Trump regime does some wild shit, and the courts give them a belated slap on the wrist or something. In the meantime, they've largely accomplished their goals.
