I think it’s time for Democratic leaders to start saying “if you’re a pilot or ground crew involved in a deportation that was stayed by a judge, you’ll be held criminally liable for human trafficking.” Everyone involved in these flights should have that fear in the back of their minds.
Overnight, this probable ICE flight landed in Benin and is now returning to Senegal, likely for a crew layover.

President Zelensky is correct to invoke the Munich Agreement.
In 1938, Europe allowed Nazi Germany to take part of Czechoslovakia to avoid war, but instead it emboldened further aggression.
He’s not saying the situations are identical, he’s invoking the pattern.

There are some key differences, but it’s striking much of Trump’s mass deportation campaign resembles the drug war of the 1980s and 1990s. In this case, then too massive, militarized task forces raided public housing buildings, whole city blocks, and even entire towns on a single warrant.
Though southwestern Idaho was off my radar, the complaint alleges that the govt has also used this dubious legal theory—leveraging criminal arrest warrants for a few individuals into a mass immigration dragnet—in Chicago; Austin, TX; Colo Springs; & Cato, NY. (H/t David Emery of Dover, NH.)
The @ACLU has filed a class action damages suit against federal & state officers over an Idaho immigration raid last October. 200 armed officers raided a horse-race festival, detaining 400 Latinos for 4 hrs. All adults & many teens ziptied & searched.

ICE is using a Navy war-fighting contract (WEXMAC TITUS) to turn warehouses into detention sites in the US.
They're using mil procurement to skip transparency & local safety laws.
