The decision issued October 7 by U.S. District Judge Jeffrey I. Cummings extends court oversight of the agency until February 2, 2026, and warns that officers who disregard the order could face contempt or criminal referral.
Trump is gonna be pissed if he ever understands this.
January 6th should have served as a warning that political discourse is limited only to the current administration.
Be nice or pay the price!
This needed a fucking ruling?!
It does, unfortunately.
“If any of you local or state law enforcement decide to grow a spine: the state courts have your back.”
Arrest ICE. They regularly use false or no plates on their vehicles - it would be a slam-dunk case, since the police can just read the plates to see if they are real. Once arrested, the masks go off and the criminal histories will be open for all to see. In this fashion, Blue States can delegitimize federal traffickers, and further prosecute the Trump Regime in the courts of public opinion and state law.
Reminder: Federal judges can deputize as many citizens as they need to enforce a ruling and there are about 80k well trained, freshly fired park rangers that may want to assist with that.
Hell deputize every citizen (including membets of local PDs) to police ice- and effectively youve taken away their sovereign and qualified immunities.
And started a universal basic income!
The day a non-right-wing judge or politician orders the arrest of a right-wing federal agent or paramilitary is the day everyone learns the left has no law enforcement power.
There is a good reason the Canadian Liberals used financial instruments when dealing with the convoy protests and didn’t just order the RCMP or police to stert arresting people.
Bruh the police literally did show up in the end and it was a whole fuckin’ thing. It was livestreamed even, you can find video of it. Now, there was a problem with absolute fucking moron leading the Ottawa Police at the time but he was removed shortly afterward.
I’m not saying we gotta start trusting police, but they’ll take most any excuse to go handcuff someone and exert power. They’re kinky like that.
Court rules laws exists.
Trump administration expected to appeal the decision.
… and in the meantime, fascist shitbags get to continue being fascist shitbags while the appeals court eventually rules that they’re allowed to be fascist shitbags. Rule of law means nothing in the US any more.
they said “can” not “will”
Court rules laws could hypothetically exist.
“no one who wears the badge of public safety should be able to abuse their power or break the law.”
Lololol
they won’t do anything against ICE, because that will imply that they have to also go after cops when they break the law. and that’s a no no for
It’s a badge of capitol safety.
We need militias to conduct citizen’s arrests on these anti-constitution traitors.
We need militias to arrest the anti-constitition traitors who are sending them.
I think there was like a whole amendment or something about that. Whatever, uh I guess back to Netflix.
This should have never been a debate.
sadly it must, all us police are legally above the law already.
Could, but very unlikely they actually will.
Not many cops are going to go around arresting ICE agents for such things I don’t imagine.
Cops are explicitly motivated to keep other cops out of jail simply because it could happen to them too.
This is likely part of why they prioritize hiding their faces and other identifying information. Watch them struggling to arrest someone and they will let go of someone just to pull their masks back up. They are breaking a lot of laws, but if a court can’t identify them, they can’t be charged. Secret police above the law are a key part of a dictatorship.
I doubt any police are going to risk arresting them in the field anyway. Even if they could make the arrest without it dangerously escalating, Pam Bondi would gleefully call it treason or insurrection, and bring in an army.
They can’t breathe with those masks. They would be so happy if we removed them for them.
You would probably get beaten or tortured, and then charged with assaulting a federal officer. That’s one to 20 years in federal prison.
Also threats against law enforcement, such as making terroristic threats or harassment, especially if it endangers the agent or their family. Potentialy harassment, conspiracy if someone identifies the officer, and obstruction of justice.
Basically dictatorship consequences.
You Americans always default to face down ass up whenever there is the slightest danger.
You can only arrest people that want to be arrested.
Well I’d certainly hope so.
I’m sure the racist pigs will get right on arresting the racist pigs
Turf wars are a thing with law enforcement agencies.
Not even just agencies. I used to live in a small town whose PD was in a feud with the PD of the next town over. It was hilarious (in a sad way) how they would keep busting each other for DUI in each other’s towns.
Honestly, government agencies holding each other accountable by jealously guarding their own powers and independence to operate is how a government of checks and balances SHOULD operate.
It’s when those proverbial small town cops start teaming up and refusing to hold each other accountable that the public needs to start worrying. For the US, that point is about 25-30 years ago though.
After getting pepper sprayed by the ice gestapo they just might lol
Different enforcement agency, Marshalls really really like breaking down cops doors and weirdly enough most agencies like the good pr that brings.
Whatever…no one was sent to jail for Kent State murders.
Citizen arrests are going to get messy.
