Earlier today, DOJ basically told the judge in the Kilmar Abrego case they were going to blow off the vindictive prosecution claim.
His attorneys responded, fine, then the criminal case must be dismissed.

Judge Young launches into a tirade against ICE; Acting Director Lyons' testimony was "disingenuous, squalid and dishonorable," that "ICE goes masked for a single reason — to terrorize Americans into quiescence," and that "ICE brings indelible [disgrace] to this admin[] and everyone who works in it."
![And there’s the issue of masks. This Court has listened carefully to the reasons given by Öztürk’s captors for maskingup and has heard the same reasons advanced by the defendant Todd Lyons, Acting Director of ICE. It rejects this testimony as disingenuous, squalid and dishonorable. ICE goes masked for a single reason -- to terrorize Americans into quiescence. Small wonder ICE often seems to need our respected military to guard them as they go about implementing our immigration laws. It should be noted that our troops do not ordinarily wear masks. Can you imagine a masked marine? It is a matter of honor -- and honor still matters. To us, masks are associated with cowardly desperados and the despised Ku Klux Klan. In all our history we have never tolerated an armed masked secret police. Carrying on in this fashion, ICE brings indelible obloquy to this administration and everyone who works in it. “We can not escape history,” Lincoln righty said. “[It] will light us down in honor or dishonor, to the latest generation.” Abraham Lincoln, Second Annual Message to Congress (Dec. 1, 1862).](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:2vtbmhmrwzbqcfv4we4uxzzt/bafkreifdibcmgjgha2hq3v5sf5kxim342dql3kzboym4ylfpo6jxkunke4@jpeg)

what people seem to believe is that there is a large number of criminal, layabout immigrants who can be easily found and deported. they support doing so snd are dismayed by the deportation of otherwise law abiding people. the problem is that the criminal group is imaginary!
Wow. New CBS poll finds majority (55%) supports the *general goal* of deportations, but a bigger majority (56%) dislikes how Trump is carrying them out. And 63% want due process.
Again, we need a better discourse around public opinion on immigration, as I've argued:

Questions about Israel in the mayoral race of New York are a proxy for how they will treat antisemites who harass, vandalize, and assault Jews and our institutions since 10/7. I'd rather they just ask directly "will you condemn people who assault American Jews while shouting free Palestine?"
Absolutely. Still think the core point of “why is this a question in a mayoral primary debate” lacks a satisfactory answer
