Terrifying…
“They don’t have to help us, but they need to get the hell out of the way cuz we’re comin’, we’re gonna do it. Which means if I gotta send twice as many resources to that sanctuary city, twice as many agents, that’s exactly what I’m going to do,” Homan said.
“And I’ve been saying for the last several days that they need to study the law,” he said. “They can not help, but don’t impede us, and don’t cross certain lines.”
Homan also promised “consequences” for anyone who tried to conceal undocumented immigrants, and said that the government’s efforts to round up human beings for detainment and deportation would begin with “the worst of the worst first.”
Everyday I’m finding it harder and harder to find the differences between Nazis and Republicans
Republicans plan to work all of them to death, not just some of them.
Nazis, being German, also had far better organizational skills.
emphasized that Trump’s deportation plan will focus on “criminals” to start with, targeting the millions of criminals they imagine roam the streets of the country’s sanctuary cities.
Somehow, I envision this to be like Israel’s definition of “terrorist”, where anyone who isn’t an Israeli is a terrorist …

Worth noting that ICE feels they can operate without compunction within 100 miles of “the border”.
p.s. They consider “the coastline” to also be “the border”.

pps: they’ve also tried arguing that any airport capable of landing international planes is also a “border”, so draw a hundred-mile circle around bigger cities in the interior as well …
Looks like that’s already mostly covered:
That’s not even all of them. Those are international airports with commercial flights. It’s finally changed its name to Terre Haute Regional Airport, but when I moved here, it was Terre Haute International Airport. It didn’t have commercial flights then and it doesn’t have them now.
In fact, as far as I know within the last 50 years or so, it’s been private planes, chartered flights, military planes, cargo and Con Air to the federal prison. If you wanted to fly to Acapulco, you’d have to either charter or go to the real commercial airport in Indianapolis.

This sounds really familiar but for the Amsterdam life of me, I can’t figure out why.
A lot of people have advocated for a strong federal government, and against states rights, because they thought states rights only meant slavery, or regressive gun laws. They didn’t consider that states rights can also mean providing sanctuary to migrants, or protecting womens’ access to reproductive medical services. They also didn’t consider what could happen if the strong federal government gets taken over by people who are aggressively hostile to them, otherwise they would have done more to prevent it from happening.
