Description

Vox’s Ian Millhiser is back on LegalAF to talk to Court Accountability Action’s Lisa Graves about his recent articles on how Trump’s siege of Minneapolis has impacted human rights and how the courts have responded. Lisa and Ian talk about how lower court judges have sought to protect people’s rights, while appellate judges are not going to save us and so the power of the people in demanding change is vital.

ICE needs to be totally de-funded/ dismantled! Vance sued for his immunity comment & ALL AGENTS be convicted of their crimes!

The judicial system has to be apolitical, and SCOTUS needs to be hauled over the coals for their blatantly unconstitutional rulings.

"They are sending people to do violence." That pretty much sums it up.

The Republican party has the Presidency, Congress, and the SC - but all they want is War. A war on Dems, immigrants, Laws Venezuela, Greenland, and now Iran. They can't build. Only destroy.

This administration is not working for this country, they are criminals with no other interest but to serve themselves, they are committing treason and have declared war against us !

ICE is a vigilante mob, condoned and protected by the administration, whose goal is to ignore the law and to challenge the authority of the Courts. The challenge to the Courts is intentional and the follows the ultimate goal of increasing the Unitary Executive power over the Courts, as the 'legal apparatus' not present in such an action as this is also part and parcel to that challenge of authority. "ICE," for the current administration, is now simply the way they spell "KKK." There does not seem to be a significant difference in the way the two entities operated in their respective times, except for the billions in taxpayer funded resources on tap for the current crop.

Even if they had enough lawyers, there is willful disregarding of court orders on the ground and in the prison facilities - if court records of admissions from DOJ lawyers are to be believed.

Don't give them that credit. They accidentally on purpose did not have enough lawyers. This was done deliberately or through conscience indifference !
