What they are asking for is what Stephen Miller means when he speaks of “federal immunity" -- complete immunity from any legal consequences. If SCSO wins, they will have the power to bring Los Angeles and Chicago to the Hamptons. @latinojustice.bsky.social intends to stop them.

In the article, the Sheriff’s Office says it has “immunity” for its actions. This isn’t the ordinary “qualified immunity” from @joannaschwartz. They have asked multiple courts to hold they have full federal "immunity from suit." No court has ruled they have even presented the question properly.

Right now, ICE is running rampant on the island. Last week they pinned a man under their car while “arresting” him.
U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement raids 'creating fear and chaos' on East End
Immigrant advocates say one man was run over on Wednesday by an U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement vehicle. Southampton Police say that did not happen.

Long Island is the Hamptons and grand estates, but it is also a destination for new arrivals - more than 30% of the residents of Nassau County speak a language other than English at home, which is why we’re suing the Nassau County PD for denying translations:
‘We speak English here': Nassau County Police sued for language access
The lawsuit claims Nassau County's police department has a written policy requiring officers to help non-native English speakers, but that many do not follow it in practice.

Nassau and Suffolk County are the eastern suburbs of New York City – where Robert Moses built the parkways to Jones Beach, Levittown, all of that. They are conservative places: despite the national shift, Trump’s ally Bruce Blakeman won election as the Nassau County executive handily.
Trump-backed Bruce Blakeman declares victory in Nassau County executive race
Blakeman had 50.6% support to Koslow’s 43.1% with 76% of the vote counted late Tuesday night, the county’s board of elections results showed.

Accepting there is wide variation in “shoes that cost $1,000,” I’m thinking more of the below, where the cost is unrelated to comfort/wear but a free-floating signal “I pay $1,000 for my shoes”.

The thousand dollar shoes do not last longer. Expensive shoes are fragile. That is the point. Posted needs to read Veblen.

The county will certainly appeal. They appealed in the middle of the case as well. We are confident in the jury’s verdict and will be ready to defend it. No one can predict what a future court will do.

Anyway, AI doesn’t have any value for me in anything I do. I understand this says something about *what* I do. But also? It’s only practically existed for maybe 18 months. I loved and worked almost 45 years without it so yeah, I’m cool.

They will appeal and it could take time to resolve. The verdict was today. Justice is slow.

Part of it was Covid, but yes, justice takes too long.

Not what we are seeing now. This was ICE asking local jails to keep people beyond their release date for no reason other than ICE wanted to pick them up. Now there are so many ICE agents they can get people before their release date.

There were lawyers challenging the detentions at the time from @nyclu.org — they secured a release in 2018 and made the process stop. This was the damages case for those who were jailed.
