To anyone that acquired a puppy or kitten for Christmas. Please do your research on that breed and make sure that you'll be forever their home. They didn't sign up for you. You signed up for them. Commit yourself to at least 15 years or more. They are not a sweater you can return.

So the shutdown was to block ICE funding, but ICE keeps running anyway. With the same brutal tactics. And the only thing that actually shuts down are the paychecks. Do I have that right?

New in PN: Trump is clowning his evangelical base

"Trump now knows religious conservatives and their motivations well enough that he doesn’t feel a need to perform anymore. Like his supporters, he’s stopped pretending he’s anything but his worst self."

Federal law limits how long minors can be held in ICE custody to 20 days. New reporting by ProPublica found hundreds of children detained for a month or more. Vox's @imillhiser.bsky.social notes, "Whatever the law says, it only matters if you have good courts that are able to enforce the law."
Seeking admission: How a federal appeals court in Texas decision supercharged ICE
The Trump-aligned Fifth Circuit Court in Texas just handed the Trump administration broad authority to lock up scores of detained immigrants, provided it can get them to Texas, Louisiana, or Mississippi. As legal challenges to their detention soar, the Trump administration has begun transferring arrests from Minnesota and other places to Texas, where their challenges can be heard by courts that are friendlier to the White House. While federal law dictates that migrants detained inside the country may be released while their cases work their way through courts, Vox's Senior correspondent, Ian Millhiser, says, "Trump has started to apply the rules that apply to people at the border to every immigrant in the country."

Perhaps a better way of saying this would be to say that in just his first year in office Donald Trump ordered the illegal detention of well over 4,000 human beings—and that that number is undoubtedly wildly low because it only considers those people who filed lawsuits to try to regain their freedom
A Reuters review found that immigration detainees have filed more than 20,200 federal lawsuits seeking release since President Trump took office, with hundreds of judges ruling more than 4,400 times that detentions were unlawful reut.rs/40gfILP
