Yup. And this is exactly why the quotas need to go.

Perhaps the big difference is we want people who commit serious felonies to be jailed whether they're migrants or not, and MAGA wants (certain) immigrants to be jailed and deported whether they've committed felonies or not.

Sounds like cruel and unusual punishment to me. (don't worry, I know it's satire)

Any 'agent' that kicks open doors without a judicial warrant and/or of anybody who is NOT a person who has committed a felony should have to pay for damages.

Mostly agree. 1 needs to be even more specific and demand a stop to ALL ICE/CBP takeover of cities, including Minneapolis. No ifs, ands or buts. 5 is to me especially important. I really think it needs to be put higher on the list. Incidentally, Homan is referring to Minneapolis as 'theater.' Isn't that a term used for war?

Does this mean Gigli is no longer the biggest flop of the 21st century?

Sadly, we do have our racists and Nazis here. We're barely a generation away from the race riots that happened in response to bussing kids, after all. And remember the picture of the SB guy who threatened a Black man with an American flag? That man is still alive and still living in Massachusetts.

Yup. It's what's left of the Combat Zone. It's still the Theater District, so plenty of entertainment around that's actually, well, entertaining...

They know they can have more fun at The Glass Slipper, and Centerfolds, which are just around the corner.

And I thought the fundraising emails for the Democrats was bad....

LOL. The classic way of admitting mistakes were made without actually taking responsibility for them.

Hmmm, If people start treating Miller as if he's the one in charge, Drumpf isn't going to like that at all. Let's see how well the "I was just following orders" defense works this time. Although sounds like it's hearsay in this example.

I read it as "it's okay for me to support a regime that protects pedophiles and persecutes immigrants from certain places, because an ancestor of mine was a Holocaust survivor." Which I'm guessing is part of your point.

For sure.

I'm sure she's very 'concerned.'

And on the anniversary of the liberation of Auschwitz, no less.

I will say, though, that while Maine is mostly white-there are parts of it that do have a fair number of immigrants (such as Portland/Lewiston, the area being targeted). And the cruelty is just as bad as in the larger metro areas. It has the oh so cute title of Operation Catch of the Day. It all needs to stop. Now.

You're exactly right. And I hope that Maine chooses her as a Senator.

And ICE is still in Maine. It's not as high profile, but still notable that people are reaching out to protect their neighbors. If this is because the focus is about to turn to another city, and I've heard talk of it going to Philadelphia and Springfield, OH, then it's not really a win.

Oh

I'm only seeing that it's reported that he has been demoted. Even if true, changing him out for somebody else doesn't mean things will get better in MN. We'll have to wait and see.

Yup, clearly it has nothing to do with the way in which the current regime is doing things. Nope, not at all. (incidentally there have always been people working to help immigrants gain legal status, especially those brought here as children, and many have argued for decades to find ways to find a pathway to citizenship to those who had been contributing to their communities for decades)

She has kept a very low profile for sure... however her husband is laying out plans for post-war Gaza developments, with T's backing.

Buses and the Green Line are often held up by wild turkeys in Boston.

Agree. It's going to take a while to even build up systems that were in place for decades that have suffered from underfunding, deferred maintenance, and a feeling among some that transit is a form of welfare.
