"Although the judge noted numerous irregularities on Ice’s court documents, she ultimately sided with the agency."
Irish man has a work permit, US business, American wife, almost finished Green card application, and has paid a bond to be released. ICE, implausibly, claims he agreed to be deported.

This is absolutely insane. The sort of Kafka-esque nightmare you would find in a Philip K Dick book set far in the dystopian future. A window on America tumbling into autocracy.

Donald Trump is suing the federal government for $10 billion. That is your money. Never in our history have we seen something like this. The billionaire President always has a new plan to make himself richer, but never a plan to make your bills more affordable.

VA chaplains in Mass. told no public prayers mentioning nurses, Alex Pretti
The Washington Post has reported that VA officials in Washington also initially blocked Minneapolis hospital employees from holding a memorial for Pretti, though that decision was later reversed.

Republican politicians who think that Minneapolis is a political problem are missing the point. It is a moral problem. But they are in so deep that they cannot see just how morally bankrupt they have become. They do not understand that we are as revulsed by their complicity as by Trump's cruelty.

On Thursday, two nurses, in the process of being detained for whatever, saved an ICE agent's life after he had a seizure. Today, ICE returned the favor by murdering a nurse.

Trump was obviously so freaked out by what was released in December that he ordered them to stop releasing stuff. They started releasing. Stuff got deleted. Then it stopped.
We know what happened. Next up - a terrible fire, a flood, rats ate it all and OMG it's all gone.

Whatever is in the Epstein Files is so explosive that the leaders of the Department of Justice are openly breaking the law every day to keep us from seeing it. (Just a reminder amongst all the other stuff flying around.)
