Interesting highlights:

  • “Oopsie…Too late,” Salvadoran President Nayib Bukele, a Trump ally who agreed to house about 300 migrants for a year at a cost of $6 million in his country’s prisons, wrote on the social media site X above an article about Boasberg’s ruling. That post was recirculated by White House communications director Steven Cheung.
  • “Basically any Venezuelan citizen in the US may be removed on pretext of belonging to Tren de Aragua, with no chance at defense,” Adam Isacson of the Washington Office for Latin America, a human rights group, warned on X.

Normally the judge can deputize state officials to perform the arrest, but I think the attorney general can come up with a way to stop them, which she is definitely compromised. The only way to detain the people performing the orders would be for the states to make the arrests.

Red states won’t because MAGA

Blue states don’t want to risk loosing anymore funding

[–] krashmo@lemmy.world 16 points 12 hours ago (2 children)

Blue states are largely sources of federal funding, not consumers. If they want to effectively increase federal funding they can just stop sending their money to the feds. If we're ignoring laws we don't like it's time for a few governors to test that practice.

Also most blue states are on the coast or have water access of some type (New Mexico and Colorado not withstanding) meaning that if ya really want to fuck with red states you could just ignore interstate trade laws. Let's see any of these states function when trade is bottlenecked.

The federal funding comes mostly from income tax. States don't send it; individual or their employers do.
