Robert Marshall చెప్పారు...: This advice may be correct as delivered, but it comes with a wink-wink, nudge-nudge to the rest of the 'resistance,' which is do whatever the hell you can to impede enforcement of the law, and if you get shot in the process, don't worry, we'll declare you a martyr and you'll get your 72 virgins in the afterlife. No worries, comrade!; 14-01-26 9:13 AM

Kakistocracy చెప్పారు...: ICE and Border Patrol agents operate with the understanding that they can treat anyone—including U.S. citizens—however they choose, with virtually no risk of serious consequences from their agencies or the government. They know the Trump administration will allow such behavior to continue unchecked.

It’s as if the pardoned Jan. 6 rioters all got hired by the Trump administration—and now they’re running Border Patrol and ICE.; 14-01-26 9:17 AM
mikee చెప్పారు...: I like to recall the 1980s era CBE (Customs and Border Enforcement) officer interviewed by the local student paper at Texas A&M, after a raid to arrest illegals working on the new alumni center. The undergrad reporter asked, "How do you know which workers are citizens and which ones aren't?" The agent laconically replied, "Well, we generally suspect the ones who take to runnin' away when our vehicles pull up at the worksite."

More seriously, I note that the Mayor does not address hot pursuit rules and precedents. Could be interesting to have an illegal run from ICE into a residence, and have a dozen ICE agents follow on, with subsequent arrest of all and sundry illegals inside. What's the law, Professor?; 14-01-26 9:18 AM
tim maguire చెప్పారు...: Schools are not private spaces. Otherwise, it seems like a useful summary of what to expect and how you should behave when approached by ICE.; 14-01-26 9:19 AM
john mosby చెప్పారు...: The best advice anyone can give to anyone else in dealing with any sort of police is:

Shut Up. Comply Now. Complain Later.

The last 10-20 years of telling people what the police can't do, gives a lot of people the completely wrong idea that they can actively resist police doing those things.

Yes, you always have the right to keep your door closed. But you can't push back on it.

So many videos being put out by the left have people getting in LE's way, even in public spaces, saying "let me see the warrant first." That's not how it works. If it turns out at the end of it all that they didn't have a warrant or one of the 36 exceptions to the general rule, then you get money and/or the satisfaction of seeing a cop locked up. At the time, you don't get to slow them down by asking for the paperwork.

Do you stop the UPS guy heading up your neighbor's walk, asking to see the address on that package?

Makes even less sense to interrupt and distract LE to see their papers.

All this is a long way of saying Madmani is giving people the idea they can resist and impede FLEOs without saying so explicitly. CC, JSM; 14-01-26 9:20 AM

"you are allowed to film but not allowed to interfere with an arrest"

That at least is true; 14-01-26 9:24 AM
Wince చెప్పారు...: The problem is Mamdani's selective refusal to uphold the law against his followers who break those laws and, more importantly, laws of general applicability outside of immigration enforcement.; 14-01-26 9:27 AM
Achilles చెప్పారు...: Democrats wont be able to win elections without illegal voters and harvested ballots they have people illegally fill out for other people.

Without the government fraud money they will have to get jobs and will suddenly not like paying their fair share.

Really the problem here is the parasitism of the left.

People like Mamdani are nothing if they don't have other people's money.; 14-01-26 9:27 AM
john mosby చెప్పారు...: Oh and Madmani is totally leaving out Terry stops and on-view probable-cause arrests. There is no paper to show in those cases, in federal law as well as state. Does Mamdani want random bystanders to question NYPD stops and on-view arrests, too? What does Commish Tisch think of this? CC, JSM; 14-01-26 9:27 AM

Ah, the projection of the Left.
What's ACTUALLY true is that the LEFT has assumed that THEY could treat cops / ICE however they wished, violate any law they wished, kill anyone they wished (at least 25 people killed during the George Floyd riots, countless businesses burned down)

Now they're really bitter that FAFO is hitting THEM.

It’s as if the pardoned Jan. 6 rioters all got hired by the Trump administration—and now they’re running Border Patrol and ICE.
Gosh, you mean they're doing to left wing protesters what teh Biden FBI did to J6 protesters?
This, right here, is world class stupid on display. Kak's literally saying "how dare those meanies treat us the way we treated the J6 protesters!!?!"

Well, shit for brains, we "dare" to follow all precedents you create. if you don't want bad things happening to you, don't create the precedent by doing bad things to us; 14-01-26 9:30 AM
Achilles చెప్పారు...: Does he get anything wrong?

"He does not lie," is not the same as "He speaks the truth."

You are smart enough to know the difference.

You are just posting this in bad faith if you give Mamdani any benefit of the doubt.

Mamdani wants illegals in the country because they vote for him. He doesn't want secure elections because he would lose. He is willing to take money from Americans to pay his voters.

He will never say that part out loud so he has cover from people like Ann.; 14-01-26 9:31 AM
Kakistocracy చెప్పారు...: Trumpism isn’t authoritarianism imposed on a reluctant America. It’s authoritarianism rising in a country where a substantial plurality already consists of eager authoritarian bootlickers who laid the groundwork for it.

America was never about universal love of liberty. It has always been about whether enough liberty-loving people are willing to fight to keep the totalitarians in check.; 14-01-26 9:35 AM
Old and slow చెప్పారు...: It sounded like reasonable and good advice to me. I can't stand Mamdani, but I can find nothing to criticize in this message.; 14-01-26 9:38 AM
Peachy చెప్పారు...: Antifa thug authoritarianism is a nazi movement on the rise - paid for and encouraged by - dark leftist money.; 14-01-26 9:39 AM
joe చెప్పారు...: He got one major thing wrong. He said that ICE might show you paper work that looks like this (and then an administrative warrant came on the screen) and tell you this document gives them the authority to arrest. Then he says, "that's not true." That is a false statement. An administrative warrant absolutely gives ICE the right to arrest the person identified in the warrant. The difference is that an administrative warrant (as opposed to a judicial warrant) does not confer the right to entire private property or non-public spaces to carry out the arrest. But in any public space it surely does confer the right to arrest.; 14-01-26 9:42 AM
rehajm చెప్పారు...: Yes he makes a lawyerly swipe at self promotion here. There’s some of the usual leftie playing with the meanings of words and stringing words together that make it sound like something else. Yah they may legally lie and trick you into compliance but if you have outstanding warrants then yes they’re gonna break down the door and that’s A-okay. The rest of you guilty of just being illegal go ahead and stay in your homes until we they warrants for you, too. You’re vulnerable everywhere else…; 14-01-26 9:48 AM
rehajm చెప్పారు...: Your vehicle isn’t a sanctuary either. There’s enough working in their favor that you’re a sitting duck pretty much everywhere. There’s financial incentives for you to leave and maybe someday you’ll be invited back legally. You don’t have to go home but you can’t stay here…; 14-01-26 9:53 AM
Ralph L చెప్పారు...: He should have listed the reasons ICE can arrest you regardless of your legal status, and what constitutes breaking federal law. There are some fools who will continue to believe Good did nothing wrong or reckless and will act similarly just for spite.; 14-01-26 9:54 AM

Christopher B చెప్పారు...: joe, that also sounds like a lie of omission as a LEO has the authority to arrest anyone they see committing a crime in their presence, and obstructing their operations is a crime. The implication that they have to have paperwork to execute an arrest is similar to the half-truth that KakaBich and others have been promoting that ICE doesn't have authority to arrest or detain US citizens.; 14-01-26 9:58 AM
Howard చెప్పారు...: Filed under civil rights we don't like; 14-01-26 10:01 AM
Rosalyn C. చెప్పారు...: I don’t get the justification of municipalities not cooperating with ICE when people who have deportation orders against them ARE BEING RELEASED FROM JAILS. That could save a lot of grief for everyone and prevent deaths like Renee Good if ICE could collect the person from the jail instead of having to go out into the community.
Whose side is Mamdani on? Society or the criminals?; 14-01-26 10:05 AM
Mary Beth చెప్పారు...: IANAL, but when he shows the second paper and says that ICE will say it means they have the right to arrest you and that is true but misleading, based on what I can see on that paper. It says they have the right to take the named person into custody for removal. They may not have the right to search a home or business for you, but if they have encountered you, it looks as though they can take you into custody. The difference between "arrest" and "take into custody" is meaningless at that point in time because either way, you have to go with them.; 14-01-26 10:08 AM

tommyesq చెప్పారు...: "ICE and Border Patrol agents operate with the understanding that they can treat anyone—including U.S. citizens—however they choose"

If the left really believed this to be true, they would no longer be smashing in ICE truck windows or getting inches from ICE officers' faces with bullhorns, they would be too scared of the consequences. Also, if that were true, there would be WAAYYYYY more arrests/shootings.

What does the left's reaction to illegals being deported tell you about the honesty in vote counts?; 14-01-26 10:28 AM

If the left really believed that and if it was actually occurring they'd be in every court in the country suing the Trump administration. You'd also see interview after interview with these innocent bystanders they're supposedly roughing up. But they're not in court and you're not seeing interviews so it's not really happening.; 14-01-26 10:38 AM

Yeah, I remember when Trudeau Sr gave someone the finger on camera. And when Jimmy Carter said he would kick Ted Kennedy’s ass in the primaries. And when W called someone a major league asshole. Vapors were had, and dissipated, 20, 40, 50 years ago. It’s now part of the common dialog. If Scarborough can say “shit” practically every morning and Frey can say “get the fuck out,” Trump can give a heckler the finger. CC, JSM; 14-01-26 10:40 AM

We'll give you arrested criminals, if you give up on workplace arrests. Something like that......Somalia, Uganda and places like that have ongoing civil wars that have gone of for generations. Don't bring them here.; 14-01-26 10:46 AM
john mosby చెప్పారు...: I wonder what the legality is of federal agents busting into state facilities. The state is the junior sovereign, after all. You can’t make the state voluntarily cooperate. But the land simultaneously belongs to the state and the USA. And the state is not a natural person, and the state is not the defendant in the underlying immigration case, so no exclusionary rule. At most the state might be able to file a federal tort claims act complaint, right?

Of course in the practical world you want to avoid FLEOs fighting state LEOs. But that assumes a practical world of honest brokers on all sides. CC, JSM; 14-01-26 10:48 AM
FormerLawClerk చెప్పారు...: Here's some more useful advice:

You aren't required to pay taxes. You are required to FILE an income tax return, but you don't have to pay. Eventually, the government will sell off your debt to a lawyer group who will run radio ads trying to convince you they can help you get out of your IRS debt, when in fact, the lawyer group has already bought the debt (or will) for pennies on the dollar and then convince you to go on a payment plan. It's all fake.

We don't have debtors prisons in the US and the IRS cannot put you in prison UNLESS you either cheat on your taxes or refuse to file. But they cannot touch you IF YOU DON'T PAY.

So stop paying, morons. Hood rat Somalians are stealing all the money you're sending the IRS.; 14-01-26 10:48 AM

Trumpism isn’t authoritarianism imposed on a reluctant America.

Correct. It's not authoritarianism at all.

Unlike the Biden Admin, and their Covid shot mandates, and censorship of social media.

It’s authoritarianism rising in a country where a substantial plurality already consists of eager authoritarian bootlickers who laid the groundwork for it.

No, Kak, that would be the Dems and their Covid Lockdowns, CA arresting a paddle boarder for being on the water, etc.

If you're looking for "eager authoritarian bootlickers", you'll mainly find them on the Left.

America was never about universal love of liberty

Because if it was, the Left would never get any votes.

If "enforcing Democratically passed and Constitutionally valid laws" is your definition of "authoritarianism", it's because you're either a lying sack of shit or else a complete fucking moron.

You don't like immigration law? Tough shit, it's the law, and we're going to enforce it. Either accept democracy, accept the rule of law, and therefore accept that President Trump gets to fully enforce US immigration law and deport all teh illegals.

Or admit you are in insurrection against America. Which, in the context of J6, you claimed was a really bad thing; 14-01-26 11:09 AM
bagoh20 చెప్పారు...: So to do certain things or enter certain places you need documentation and permission. That's exactly why ICE is there, because some people didn't do that when they came here. The irony of the left never ends.; 14-01-26 11:12 AM

john mosby చెప్పారు...: Aggie: “ You know, I'm just quietly noticing that a handful of guys in rental SUVs and the right clothing could have a lot of fun right now in Minneapolis.”

Do you mean ICE imitators? They would get locked up by MPD or by the real ICE if they touched the interferors.

Maybe if they just drove around, getting the interferors to follow them around to the wrong places, thus taking some load off real ICE? Especially if their uniforms were unmistakably non-ICE in close inspection- like the patches could say MICE or RICE, and they could wear clown shoes. The real police don’t stop the caravans of interferors, and real ICE won’t be there, so they could keep this up for a while. CC, JSM; 14-01-26 11:28 AM

False.

Wesley Snipes was arrested for FAILURE TO FILE income tax returns for the years 1999 through 2001.

Like I said: You ARE legally required to FILE. But not to PAY.

Stop paying.

If paying could land you in jail then the Rev. Al Sharpton would be in jail. He dutifully filed his income tax return. He just never paid.

He still owes $4.2 million in back taxes and the IRS cannot arrest him. Because it's not a crime to not pay. He wasn't even outed by the IRS. He was outed by the New York Times when he became inconvenient. He still owes millions. You are the sucker if you are paying.

STOP. PAYING. TAXES.

The tax dollars being removed from your paycheck each week ARE BEING STOLEN BY DEMOCRATS. They have imported hood rats from Somalia to steal your money by creating all kinds of fake businesses - such as day care centers and medical offices. They're all fake. Fronts for thieves. They are in EVERY state, not just Minnesota.

STOP. PAYING.; 14-01-26 11:40 AM

Greg The Class Traitor చెప్పారు...: TeaBagHag said...
Deranged answers:

Being arrested by ICE isn't a kidnapping, so that isn't relevant to the current situation

Do you have the right to obstruct fascist thugs when they are carrying out their state sponsored terror? Yes, good citizens have the moral duty to stop kidnappings, assaults and murders.

Which is why the J6 protesters were good and every single member of the Biden Admin should have been executed for their Covid shot mandates, social media censorship, and release of illegal alien rapists and murderers into America.

And it's why it's great that Renee Good was shot and killed when she was using her car as a lethal weapon.

And why it's great that teh Trump Admin is using ICE to deport all the criminal scum that teh Democrats let in

I don’t get the justification of municipalities not cooperating with ICE when people who have deportation orders against them ARE BEING RELEASED FROM JAILS.

Paraphrasing Howard (that Howard), it's extreme Federalism Democrats like, also known as State's Rights v2.0. The Federal government can not order state and local officials to perform duties on behalf of the Feds, and immigration enforcement is 100% a Federal responsibility which per the USSC states can't even perform if they wish to. That's why things the Federal government wants states to do are always expressed as a condition of receiving Federal funds at least somewhat related to the desired actions. The Feds can't order the states to do something but they can make receiving funds contingent on it. Carried to its illogical extreme even a phone call notifying ICE that an illegal alien has been apprehended can be prohibited by state and local rules.; 14-01-26 12:58 PM

It’s as if the pardoned Jan. 6 rioters all got hired by the Trump administration—and now they’re running Border Patrol and ICE.

In a real sense, the persecution of peaceful J6 protesters was a message to all conservatives not to question our Liberal Overlords, or face the wrath of our capricious legal system.

So in a way you are correct.; 14-01-26 1:31 PM
NMObjectivist చెప్పారు...: I liked the "remain calm" part.; 14-01-26 1:37 PM
boatbuilder చెప్పారు...: If the left really believed that and if it was actually occurring they'd be in every court in the country suing the Trump administration. You'd also see interview after interview with these innocent bystanders they're supposedly roughing up. But they're not in court and you're not seeing interviews so it's not really happening.

Bingo, North.; 14-01-26 1:39 PM
boatbuilder చెప్పారు...: I bet there are a whole lot of NYCers who are somewhat startled to find out from Mamdami that it is illegal to interfere with ICE arrests.; 14-01-26 1:40 PM
narciso చెప్పారు...: Kyle Shideler on X: "This is a quite good diagram of how much of the revolutionary left thinks about what they are doing. The goal is to agitate the masses into action, facilitated by the base groups (or “mass organizations”), under the direction of organizers (revolutionary cadre).

narciso చెప్పారు...: DataRepublican (small r) on X: "Everyone needs to read this thread to understand how the Constitution is being targeted and that NED is a key player in this. NED is my red line for Republicans. If you vote for NED, you deserve primarying. I don't care if you have sentimental attachments to NED as being" / X https://share.google/wRNvYvk8ExecCpV2k; 14-01-26 2:31 PM
Iman చెప్పారు...: “Says the lying piece of shit giving tongue baths to TdA and MS13 rapists and murderers.”

Tongue baths?!?! Hag has the right to savor countless “bean bags” and unlimited opportunities to “snarfle teh warthog”.; 14-01-26 2:36 PM

JaimeRoberto చెప్పారు...: I don’t get the justification of municipalities not cooperating with ICE when people who have deportation orders against them ARE BEING RELEASED FROM JAILS. That could save a lot of grief for everyone and prevent deaths like Renee Good if ICE could collect the person from the jail instead of having to go out into the community.

I don't get it either unless the Dems are totally dependent on illegals for votes and/or money.; 14-01-26 2:40 PM
Yancey Ward చెప్పారు...: You want to know where you won't see The Teabag Hag? Obstructing ICE and most likely not even protesting on the sidewalks.; 14-01-26 3:35 PM
Mason G చెప్పారు...: "I don't get it either unless the Dems are totally dependent on illegals for votes and/or money."

Don't discount the insane need of the left to oppose anything and everything Trump says/does. If he were so inclined, he could probably get them to eat their own shit.; 14-01-26 3:40 PM
Lazarus చెప్పారు...: "Don't pay your taxes" sounds like an ad for one of those "tax relief" firms that can settle your tax problems for pennies on the dollar.

Grok the Oracle tells me that "sanctuary cities" are constitutional. What other federal laws are states not bound to comply with?

The 1976 "Rockefinger" was the iconic political kiss-off.; 14-01-26 3:52 PM
Hassayamper చెప్పారు...: Have you ever looked at a chart of how much $ blue states contribute in tax revenue compared to red states?

You realize that is an artifact of bookkeeping, right? Hollywood makes money in movie theaters all over the country but pays taxes from an office building in LA. Archer Daniels Midland grows food in 40 states but pays taxes from Chicago. Crop subsidies are spent in farm country to keep food cheap for poor people in big Democrat cities. Interstate highways, airports, and docks and locks are built in the interior to allow transcontinental shipment of crops and food and other goods and people. Military bases are built in flyover country so liberal shitbirds like TeaBagHag are protected but won't complain about fascist buzz-cut Alabamian pilots flying too low over their soy milk and KY jelly orgies in San Francisco.; 14-01-26 4:37 PM

All you liberal women are going to love the future.; 15-01-26 6:43 AM
Robert Cook చెప్పారు...: "Muslims teaching Americans about rights."

Someone has to try. We're not getting anything but lies, boasts, and lunacy from the moron who claims/boasts/lies he "has the best brain."

Besides, anyone who can cheer on or consider ICE (the American Gestapo) as a legitimate "police force" has no understanding of or regard for rights.; 15-01-26 8:21 AM
Robert Cook చెప్పారు...: "Is a socialist politician allowed to lie as well?"

"Allowed" is not the right term, but "as likely to do so or not to do so" as any other politician, given their respective characters. If lies cannot be detected, one must assume he or she is probably speaking honestly. Where lies are detected in a socialist politician, it is as unacceptable as the lies (often) spoken by "capitalist" politicians.

Have you detected any lies in Mamdini here?; 15-01-26 9:30 AM
Rustygrommet చెప్పారు...: FLC
You first. This has been going on for a long time. I met people who thought this was a good idea. They were living in their car .Or a relatives basement.
There are all kinds of legal ways for tax avoidance not paying is a good way to lose everything.; 15-01-26 10:36 AM
Rustygrommet చెప్పారు...: Commissar Cook. If you were ever approached by the Geheime Staatspoliezi you'd shit yourself.
You and the hag are obviously too stupid to understand the concept of "illegal".
Are queers being rounded up? How about college professors? Communists? Jews? Romani? No? Then quit trivializing history.; 15-01-26 12:30 PM
