What I appreciate most here is not that they told them to stop, which may be challenged and rejected by fascists in the judiciary, but that they stated that ICE and the government in general aren’t credible. They’ve just been making things up and being given a default of assuming good faith. It’s like the courts that just take “I feared for my life” at face value, despite the fact that saying that magic phrase regardless of the situation is taught in courses and their fears are based on fantasies. A court that’s unwilling to judge the credibility and rationality of a defendant isn’t a functioning court.
There was a law professor on a podcast talking about how courts traditionally lend credibility to the government as a default position, but it might have to change because of all the shit this admin is pulling
They really shouldn’t, and it’s been a problem for a lot longer than Trump. BLM didn’t come about because there was a functioning justice system willing to cast a critical eye to its operatives. The idea that certain individuals are just trustworthy by default is what breeds a culture of unaccountability.
