State legislatures across the country are accelerating efforts to shape immigration enforcement policy after the deadly shooting of a Minnesota woman by a federal agent, raising tensions between local leaders and the Trump administration.
From California to New York and Illinois to New Jersey, they’re pushing a range of bills aimed at limiting enforcement and protecting people targeted by Immigration and Customs Enforcement, while turning up the rhetoric with comparisons to the Gestapo.
Ooooohhh. Civil forfeiture of their cars, vests, weapons, and face masks …
Civil Forfeiture is perfect. I always say that these psychos pass stupid laws because they forget that they can be used against them, too. Then Dems get power and don’t use them.
Civil Forfeiture is one. It’s heinous, but it’s legal, so exploit the shit out of it MAGA-style.
Honestly, civil forfeiture has as much legal protection as qualified immunity.
I want to see democratic AGs actually do this.
