I noted this before, but it's worth reminding people that ICE feels they can act with impunity within 100 miles of "the border", and, oh yeah, they consider the coastline to be "the border".

Bonus: 100 miles of international airports too!
This is the incoming Trump administration. Just paint the whole damn map red. Laws don't really matter when the ones who enforce those laws can do what they want based on the legal theory of "because fuck you, that's why."
I might be mistaken, but I swear the corrupt ass hell Supreme Court made this true?
Like, I thought those fucks do, in face, now have impunity to do whatever they want within those boundaries?
Don't they also consider international airports a border?
Yup, noted above!
Trump finally going after his longtime foe, Quasimodo.
Seriously, though, let's see how the Evangelicals feel about their churches no longer being safe spaces, because the Feds can just bust in and do whatever, now. Trump has no love for religion other than using it to control.
How long until another Waco? Faces, meet Leopards.
They'll love it because it's going after brown people. Wait until it's their turn that's when the screeching will begin.
The Evangelicals want this. The white evangelicals don't want brown and black ones in their churches. Hell, the white ones would turn in their own church members if it made it less colorful.
Crazy idea: let's bring back old Anglo-Saxon church sanctuary laws and apply it to all crimes. You just can't be arrested in a church period. Make the world more whimsical. Let's bring back criminals of all sorts running into churches yelling, "sanctuary! sanctuary!"
Running to a church would be safer than a McDonalds
As always in a Trump administration, fear and cruelty are the the points.
