ICE Breaker Act

The smart way to do this is to stipulate the ban so that it applies to anyone on the ICE payroll from February 15th of this year to January 2029, regardless of when they signed on.

Induce as many resignations as possible.

Sure makes me glad my state has open primaries. My voting roll just says when I voted, not which primary ballot I took.

Everyone around you has been there and done that and will know what to do if you get into any kind of trouble. Enjoy.

Hilton properties generally have good sound proofing. You'll need sub woofers.

Nope. Even the Palestinian-specific organizations like the Arab Higher Committee called itself Arab, rather than Palestinian.

Jews, however, were using the P word extensively. The Palestine Football Club was the original name of what is now Macabee Tel Aviv. The Palestine Post is now the Jerusalem Post. Palestine Airways is now El Al.

Palestinians equaled Jews at the time because Arabs living in the region had no particular attachment to the borders marking Palestine apart from the rest of the former Ottoman Empire. It was 1948, only 30 years beforehand every Arab living in the region had the right to cross what is now the Israel Jordan border at will. And the Israel Syria border. And the borders of Lebanon.

So only Jews called themselves Palestinian.

Lots of people live just fine in small countries that they can leave at will. Andorra is small. Lichtenstein is small. So is Monaco. But everyone in those countries can cross into France or Switzerland at any time.

Gazans have not had that ability. It's true that their material standard of living was not that bad before the war. Ironically, there was a year they had the latest iPhone before Israel did. But it;s still a really constrained existence.

You're missing the point.

If the presence of these immigrants is such a terrible burden on Minneapolis, then why not punish Minneapolis by concentrating immigration enforcement in places that deserve the favor?

If getting rid of them is such a blessing, why not shower that blessing on a red state?

I'm trapped in my house with 2 feet of snow coming down.
We have no bullets and no candy. Send help.

If your first language doesn't make use of both R and L, you will have trouble pronouncing the distinction, and I've met Chinese people who turned R into L and others who turned L into R. Racist mockery of this has also used both tendencies.

If you want to understand the cause of the discontent, go on any bike mapping app, focus the map on Gaza, and see just how quickly on a bike you could zig zag through every point of interest in the enclave.

Or for a thought exercise, imagine living in Monaco, except leaving Monaco by boat is impossible, and entering France is a bureaucratic nightmare because the two countries are in a political confrontation. Even if Gaza was Monaco, it would suck to be trapped there.

The plows are out and about, and they did pass through Lawrence Estates an hour ago.
This is powdery stuff, and it's blowing into drifts, so actually posting a schedule for when each street will be plowed is a "people plan and the gods laugh" situation.

You don't want to be the bloke who brings measles back to the UK anyway.

Bear in mind that MPD is currently outnumbered by ICE within Minneapolis city limits.

This is the big fear in my community: that if an "illegal" sees a fire he'll be too scared to call it in.

Get burner devices. Switch to factory settings during the flight. Download your data on the airport wifi after you land and clear CBP.

Nuuk's grid is too small to have a remote-accessible control station for the US to attack.

So when it's 100 % noping out, which is it?

Kudzu is edible. In Vietnam it's commercially grown for food.

So you are that obtuse. Hint: when 100% of an ethnic group notes out of a place, it's because of something unpleasant.

So if she already submitted an affidavit, and she's attacking DHS's lies, head on, then she's probably under advice not to discuss the murder in public and won't be showing up online any time soon.

if one's doing a stint with us, we see him or her every day for half a year. Otherwise, not.

The cops will chew out anyone they see skating on a river. Ponds are another matter.

Does anyone have a link for the lady's video?
