The White House is demanding that ICE get deportations up, and ordering any career law enforcement who objects to get the hell out of the way.

The head of ICE’s Enforcement and Removal operations apparently resigned rather than obey an order to fire ICE officers who weren’t hitting arrest quotas!

2. Good.

3. Golly, just yesterday TCF wanted LESS enforcement because farmers & hotels complained

Now: Here's your quota, do it or get the hell out?

Nothing like consistency.

Worst management on the planet.

4. They don't sound like Trumpee's

they sound like they know what their jobs are. Perish the thought of who's next.

5. My cousin, a dual NZ + Swiss

citizen, lived in the US for 25 years, based his business here, but left during Trump’s 1st term. He had a Green Card and was considering citizenship. His daughter lives here, while she grew up in Switzerland her mom is American so she’s naturalized.

Anyway, my cousin was coming back often to visit because his life was here, but he didn’t want to live under Trump and didn’t have to. He was planning to come this month but doesn’t feel safe doing that because way back, long before his GC, he was an overstayer and is in the system as such. So now, no telling how he'd be treated.

We’re Seniors, neither of us in great health, and I ache at the possibility I’ll not see him again because … fascism.

10. Steal away My Friend

I thoroughly enjoy quoting President Kennedy

My favorite quote of his from August 1963 (framed and in my office)

Any Man who may be asked in this century
What he has done to make his life worthwhile
Can respond with a great deal of pride and satisfaction
I served in the United States Navy

11. Chicago has been particularly effective in teaching people their rights about warrants. . . . . nt

12. So now they hire gang members

More proud boys and oathkeepers and militia members. They'll be happy to rough up those brown people.

[soldierant]

13. Yes, that's always the problem with resigning fo conscience.

But I'm not sure what else there is to do in that situation.

17. I know

15. Stephen Miller has quotas. Under that pressure,

DHS has to choose. Do they go through the process of looking for criminals or do they just scoop up people looking for work in a Hone Depot parking lot or people harvesting crops in a field? Which choice do you think they’ll make?
