Thugs who cover their faces at asylum hearings which cannot be considered a tactical situation in any way need to be prosecuted and imprisoned.
Chickenshit motherfuckers.
In fact that goes for any sort of legal proceeding.
This is what drives me crazy. So trump can get away with pretty much anything, that’s been established. Well then start going after the stormtroopers who are carrying out these illegal orders. Take these little toadies and toss them in prison, then we’ll see how many people follow trumps orders
I agree, but you have to understand the courage it will take to do it. The first judge who does so could end up dead, and maybe their family too. Threats against judges have been dramatically increasing(archive.ph link). Every one of them has to be thinking, if I hit any of these thugs with a contempt charge, my family could be killed. Would you do it? I don't know if I could unless I knew my family were in hiding or surrounded by armed security.
Revolutions are rarely bloodless. People need to stand up for their convictions or bend over and take it. There is no in between.
You're not wrong, but it takes tremendous courage to be the first through the door when you know you are likely to die for it.
It sure does. Guess they don't teach about courage any more? People can't live without their phones anymore, never mind and their cozy lives. It's only cozy now though, it's soon not to be, as are your luxuries like gaming consoles and personal phones. That's why they gave them to us, so we'd be too distracted to stop them when the time comes. Here we are...
Can't judges requisition anyone as a Marshal and send them to capture ICE thugs held in contempt? I don't think that will happen but maybe it should.
They do indeed have options, but as I posted, there has been a huge uptick in threats against judges this year including threats against their families. It's not the marshal's or police who would be in real danger arresting an ICE agent. It would be the judge who gave the order. It will take a judge with real courage to issue that order.
