[Video] ICE arrests PhD student
I can’t see evidence that it’s banned. I’m on .ml and can see it just fine. It would be in the modlog if it were banned.
Politics: the activities of the government, members of law-making organizations, or people who try to influence the way a country is governed
All the comments against the decision i have seen on this post argue why the rule should be bypassed, not why this respects the rule
My guess is someone is afraid thinking about this content might threaten their politics.
Friendly reminder that we can FOIA first and last names of every ICE employee and their salary, and position/title.
Every last one of them.
It’s a good and legal public list just waiting to be collected nice and legally, and shared with the taxpayers as per our still existing rights.
This assumes the department or people involved with fulfilling these requests hasn’t already been compromised or shut down. The request means nothing when it never gets looked at.
Ultimately, this would come down to the judiciary. They (ICE) could stonewall all they want. Those documents are on file, and you better believe the judiciary will exercise every ounce of strength they’ve got in producing them.
It might get delayed unduly for quite some time, but those names are the public’s. Not a damn thing any person who decided to accept the job can do about that to stop the public.
