They’re taking children from Minnesota and locking them up like criminals in detention camps in Texas.

For the love of God, send our kids home and bring an end to this nightmare.

Local news is reporting that Le contracted with DOJ precisely because ICE is breaking the law so often and so seriously that DHS is being hammered with habeas petitions. Some people get what they deserve.
Not a DOJ attorney but a former ICE attorney who volunteered to help just a MONTH ago and is already having a nervous breakdown.

There are ethical considerations to quitting a case but it feels like begging the court to rule contempt because your client sucks does too.

He has destroyed all faith in our institutions - media, Universities, FBI, CIA, DOJ, DHS, museums, the Smithsonian FFS, everything. All all complicit in covering up for the republicans - all they say is cloaked in lies and misdirection. How can anyone trust anything anymore?

Law enforcement cannot be lawless.

Thousands of aggressive, untrained agents of the federal government continue to injure and terrorize Minnesotans. This must end.

Parents are afraid to send their kids to school, classrooms sit half-empty, children are being taken to detention facilities. We’ve crossed a line.

I stood with education leaders to discuss the growing harm federal actions are causing to children, families, and our schools.

According to FOX 9, a Minneapolis federal judge demanded to know why DOJ is missing deadlines & AUSA Julie Le said, "The system sucks, this job sucks" & asked to be held in contempt so she could sleep.

PACER shows she got assigned to defend the govt in 88+ cases since Operation Metro Surge started.

No, we don’t need violent tactics, scare quotes or otherwise. “Why can’t you just stick to your peaceful nonsense and let us burn things?” Because the consequences will fall on my city and my neighbors. If you try to start something like that, I will try to stop you.
But that's literally what Will is doing. Both "violent" and non violent tactics are needed in movements like this. If he doesn't want to participate in the more rowdy actions, then he shouldn't, but he should shut the fuck up and not interfere.
