GIVE HIM HIS HAT AND BACKPACK BACK YOU GHOULS
Federal judge has ordered the release of Liam Ramos (the bunny hat boy) and his father. A brief and rather remarkable order. Clearly written to be shared widely, so please do. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

ICE currently has a code of professional conduct. Among other things, it requires agents to be "professional, police, respectful, considerate, helpful and patient in all official activities ... even in the face of considerable provocation."
Minority Leader Chuck Schumer said the party agreed on three main goals:
ยฐ Require warrants in some cases and ICE coordination with state and local law enforcement
ยฐ Create a code of conduct and enforce it
ยฐ Require agents to wear body cams and not masks

Trump wants to appear eager to minimize clashes between his government militias and protesters. But he doesn't want them to stop doing the things that are causing the clashes in the first place. The "pivot" is really about getting Dems to back off in budget talks. 3/

Renee Good was shot in the face. Alex Pretti was shot in the back. Their deaths were not accidental. They were not the result of poor or insufficient training. They were the result of intent.
