Why would anyone, particularly immigration lawyers, rely on ICE to not fuck with them?

Man, fuck these people. They obviously don't want justice and don't believe in liberty, certainly not for all. They are so anti American that they break the Pledge of Allegiance on a daily basis.

Sounds like treason. Isn't that punishable by the death penalty in the US?

[–] kautau@lemmy.world 39 points 1 day ago

No, it's punishable by pardon apparently

sad Department of Agriculture noises

[–] mracton@piefed.social 9 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Y’all are going through it from what I heard from a USDA friend being transferred from their office

Basically every gov department aimed at actually helping people is going through it. People don't realize how much trump has fucked the things we take for granted to keep (the most harmful of harmful at least) chemicals out of the water, breathable air, stopping the spread of illness's that can mutate to become deadly, and so much more

If the situation was reversed, I’d think this was pretty funny. I’ll think of that instead.

it is irony that the USA had to put on a mask for the rest of the world to see the USA with its mask off

[–] Coolbeanschilly@lemmy.ca 40 points 1 day ago

No, the real irony is that these are the same retards that thought wearing a mask to prevent the spread of COVID was an infringement on their rights.
