New nickname for ICE agents … the goonies. :p

A federal judge in Atlanta dismissed the suit in 2022 and the 11th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals upheld that decision last year. The Supreme Court agreed in January to take up the matter.

The key issue before the justices is under what circumstances people can sue the federal government in an effort to hold law enforcement accountable. Martin’s attorneys say Congress clearly allowed for those lawsuits in 1974, after a pair of law enforcement raids on wrong houses made headlines, and blocking them would leave little recourse for families like her.

In dismissing Martin’s case, the 11th Circuit largely agreed with that argument, saying courts can’t second-guess police officers who make “honest mistakes” in searches. The agent who led the raid said his personal GPS led him to the wrong place. The FBI was looking for a suspected gang member a few houses away.

“My plan at first was to get out excessive toxins in my body. I felt like my body is intelligent, I know that to be true. Our bodies are brilliantly made,” Lewis said. “I decided to keep my tumor and try to work it out of my body a different way. . . . I wish I could go back. It’s important for me to admit where I went wrong with this.”

She admitted her mistakes and failures.

At the largest demonstration since Trump first intervened, last Sunday, the national guard was hemmed into a staging area by Los Angeles police cruisers and played almost no role in crowd control. Since then, its service members have been deployed to guard buildings and federal law enforcement convoys conducting immigration sweeps. The marines, who arrived on Wednesday, are expected to play a similar function, with no powers of arrest.

Jayzuz. What a shit show.

So Trump is arreating people who take care of and harvest food that Americans depend on. Seems he wants the people to starve and Newsom to fail.

“So right off the bat I just wanted to say that if for some reason you think I shouldn’t be helping protestors protect themselves from non-lethal weapons, I don’t fucking care.”

Gotta love this for guy saying exactly what he means.

Trump’s whole adminstration is filled with pricks, dickheads and cunts.

Found another possibility …

Mr Trump could take a more far-reaching step by invoking the Insurrection Act of 1792, which would allow troops to directly participate in civilian law enforcement, for which there is little recent precedent.

Casting protests as an “insurrection” that requires the deployment of troops against US citizens would be riskier legal territory, one legal expert said, in part because mostly peaceful protests and minor incidents are not the sort of thing that the Insurrection Act were designed to address.

I thought I read somewhere that using federal military forces against Americans was illegal?

As kids we used to play this all the time at my grandma’s farm. So much so that I’d bruise my middle finger nail from flicking the discs.

Loved that game a lot.

Nothing has changed since the George Floyd protests. Cops still do what they want, to whomever they want, without consequence.

As always, ACAB.

A former senior law enforcement official who spoke on condition of anonymity, citing fear of retaliation, said he was struck by the large amount of resources the DOJ put into investigating Abrego Garcia.

“They came hard at a relatively low level guy, which does not necessarily make it improper — just odd. Perhaps they wanted the last word, which seems childish,” said the former official. “Typically, you work up the chain; not down it. That said, at least he gets his due process rights this time around.”

Seems to me that the DOJ is obeying Trump, and he only wants to be ‘proven’ right … even when he’s lying through his teeth.

:'(

You’re right. My apologies.
