I'm seeing people wonder why ICE is going after Charlotte.
ICE has been at war with Charlotte's sheriff ever since he won in 2018.
We'd covered this at Bolts back in the day; this quote is from that sheriff:

We'd covered this at Bolts back in the day; this quote is from that sheriff:
“When the 8 African American sheriffs took over the largest counties in North Carolina, it became a threat to the good ol’ boy system,” says the sheriff of Charlotte. These new sheriffs broke ties with ICE.
But GOP lawmakers cracked down this week, overbidding the governor’s veto to adopt this law:

North Carolina GOP Is Cracking Down on the Black Sheriffs Who Stood Up to ICE
Boosted by new supermajorities, Republicans are closing in on legislation to mandate more collaboration with ICE and preempt local policies hard-won by immigrants’ rights advocates.

All @islandpress.bsky.social books are HALF PRICE through Sunday, 11/16 including my book, The Uncommon Knowledge of Elinor Ostrom. Ostrom's ideas are about more than just environmental commons. They are about the heart of democracy and self-governance - ideas that are incredibly relevant today.

Interesting that when our response to fascists organizing was to beat the shit out of them and shut everything down, they stopped coming. Now that our strategy is interpretive dance and court orders, they're suddenly brave again. And this time they don't even need Portland Police to protect them!

The Portland Immigrants Rights Coalition reported 329 arrests in Oregon last month. Those arrests have sent chills through immigrant communities throughout the state. Fearing detention, some residents are now staying home from work, school and doctor appointments.
‘Detain first and ask questions later’: Oregon ICE arrests shot up in October
StopICE.net, a crowdsourced ICE activity tracker, also reported an increase in immigration enforcement operations recently. StopICE received 71 reports of ICE activity or arrests within a 40-mile radius of Portland in October, compared to 31 in September and 17 in August.

JD Vance: "A lot of young people are saying housing is way too expensive. Why is that? Because we flooded the country with 30 million illegal immigrants who were taking houses that ought by right go to American citizens."

Good morning from Judge Jeffrey Cumming's courtroom, where he's considering a motion to release 100s of "Midway Blitz" arrestees on EM who were subjected to "warrantless" arrest.
ICE and CBP recently produced a list of 3,300 people arrested since June

Trump just continually shooting our country in the face. This unwarranted (and likely illegal) destruction of Goddard is madness. It jeopardizes the next several decades of space exploration.

A similar, smaller scale thing just happened in the Josephine County (OR) GOP. A bunch of county leaders and precinct captains quit the GOP and formed a group called “United Conservatives.” The OR GOP currently has no official organization in the county.
WOAH. Texas GOP Executive Director Jen Hall and another top party official just resigned. In her letter to party Chair Abraham George, Hall said she "cannot in good conscience continue to work this way" but doesn't elaborate. Hall and George are both longtime Tim Dunn allies. This is...interesting.

Agustin Zamacona, who speaks and reads English, further says an agent in Broadview tried to get him to sign a self-deportation form by telling him it was court paperwork.
"I saw they weren't court papers, they were for deportation, so I didn't sign it," he says.

From Bovino's deposition: (1) he calls protestors "violent" if they articulate views hostile to ICE, even if no violence is manifested; (2) he instructs his forces to attack and arrest protestors who express "hyperbolic comments," which is to say, criticism of ICE and Bovino.
