I commented because I encounter so many people complaining that the Miranda warnings weren't given to them when they were arrested, even though they weren't questioned. They think that that somehow makes their arrest illegal, which, obviously, it doesn't.

Actually Miranda warnings aren't required even if you are in custody, unless they begin to question you about the arrest. If they don't question you, they don't have to warm you. TV shows that show Miranda warnings being given as soon as someone is handcuffed get this wrong every time.

"Aura"? Don't you mean skunk?

"Jackson ordered [ICE] to stop making warrantless arrests in CO unless the arresting officer determines before the arrest that there is probable cause that the person is ... in violation of immigration laws and there is probable cause that the person will escape before a warrant can be obtained."

As President Trump threatens to send troops into more cities, Congress must pass the Military in Law Enforcement Accountability Act to make clear that the military shouldn't be used to police people.

Safety comes from investing in our communities, not militarizing them.

That's a pretty brutal briefing schedule.

More waffling, more noncompliance. Hell, they could just go out and buy KFC chicken for everyone and falafels for all the vegetarians. What's the big deal?
