no surprised that brett ”almost certainly flunked his remedial classes” kavanaugh thinks the constitution authorizes a race-based federal “papers please” regime. quick, someone ask him what he thinks of the fugitive slave act.

among other things this passage shows both a disregard for the facts of the matter and a total indifference to how experience of being subject to one of these stops.
Same thing with Gorsuch ruling a truck deserved to be fired for deserting broken-down truck in sub-zero temperatures. We need people who have actually been shit on at least once or twice in their lives to be judges instead of these freaks hatched in Fed Soc test tubes.
If he were subject to one of these checks, he would be absolutely furious with righteous indignation. I know I would be, and we have similar backgrounds (exactly same age, grew up in DC area, went to private DC Catholic schools)
"typically" and then the "extremely" a few paragraphs earlier in reference to the likelihood that any given Latino person is unlawfully in the United States are pure adjectival bullshit
Any time he's been caught in a legal oopsie his parents made a phone call and it went away, it's not his problem if some factory worker picked the wrong parents
Citizens have been arrested and detained. These people are racist clowns.
Like most “conservative” thought and policy there won’t be any change unless the specific individuals feel the consequences of their policy. That means if/when the next administration takes power there should be immigration raids on some neil gorsuch speaking engagements.
The next time Clarence Thomas has a hunting trip with Harlan Crow they need to be rounded up, put in an unmarked van and sent to whatever random state’s detention center. Of course they’ll have every opportunity to simply prove their citizenship and let the courts go to work…but until then good luck
The immigrant parents of every high profile Republican, like Marco Rubio, need to have their citizenship questioned and investigated. It is on them to prove that they entered the country legally. If there is any discrepancy, their citizenship should be contested and revoked.
Only then, will there be cries of “but the Constitution” by conservatives and actual rulings to make sure this never happens again.
A guy issuing decisions for the highest court in the land saying, “well, if you didn’t do anything wrong, then you don’t have anything to worry about!”
Images of Kavanaugh, briefly detained and asked to answer questions.
We've seen the stories of what's happened to citizens and others legally present being detained so he's boldly lying or has no idea what's happening in the world. I know which scenario is most likely. He's flat out lying. That's nothing new for him.
contrast this with the shocked pikachu face they were making at anodyne descriptions of how a criminal trial works when it's a former (Republican) President with overwhelming evidence of guilt
brett kavanaugh’s pretty little mind can’t be bothered to imagine the mother desperate to calm her sobbing child as ICE agents threaten to whisk her away to a secret jail for looking “illegal”
I wonder if Brett, or any of these justices for that matter, could prove right this second with documentation that he can be in the country legally. I kind of doubt it. Beside the point I know because it's a racist decision but still.
That’s the very charitable interpretation. I choose to believe that he’s an absolute monster who’s getting off on this exact scenario. These people have already proven themselves boundlessly sick.
We know he thinks bodily intrusions are NBD.
And I beg anyone who wants to defend the piece of shit rapist to refrain from doing so. How sad that you can’t even tell for sure who I’m talking about
Who wiped his gambling debts?
I wholeheartedly agree.
Let’s get the Tiger Mom to weigh in. Please.
Stephen Miller gets off on it for sure, it’s his kink. But Kavanaugh is probably just an overly privileged cunt who has no idea what real life is.
The disease of character that permits SA (of which I’m sure he’s guilty) alone tells me he’s a sadistic fuck. But either way, I hope he swings.
bingo. these people aren't misled, or ignorant. they're evil.
Or, or, Mr. Kavanaugh, they're shipped out of the country in shackles and imprisoned in CECOT where they're tortured, sexually assaulted, humiliated, and starved? They're released after having their cars smashed, and sitting in prison for weeks? Their families broken and their pets starving alone?
Here's hoping he hasn't imagined it. I fear that he has- and enjoys it.
Exactly. He's privileged white guy who had never experienced being challenged on the street for the crime of being a brown person.
So.. yes, he is, absolutely. But in fact in his confirmation hearings he certainly did experience emotionally reacting to being challenged with an accusation he adamantly denied, and which he struggled to refute. What he fails to see is how it was his privilege that protected him then.
Jamelle, I can only assume that Brett imagines this scenario quite often and that the thought of it arouses him sexually.
WTF is “promptly go free” when they’re smashing car windows here in LA and dragging people out? I am terrified for our beautiful communities.
"You got no fear of the underdog That's why you will not survive"
How the hell does the person prove their citizenship? Unless they carry a passport or a birth certificate. Oh wait, agents still don't believe you and think the paperwork is fake. So no, not brief, mr. justice.
The situations where US citizens have been stopped for how they look and/or sound have not been going the way that Brett describes. I'd tell him to watch some of the videos out there, but he just does not care.
Correct. Truly with this decision, very non-white person needs to carry a passport. It's not just latinos. The original injunction was against using race, bus stops, work locations, etc. SCOTUS removing this is really, really bad.
There's a grandma in Missouri who wrote a bad check for $25 ten years ago; she came here from Ireland when she was 11. She's married to a citizen, a veteran, and she's been in jail in Kentucky for more than a month. Being white is not going to protect anybody.
Oh No one is safe, to be sure. But it's still easier to look at a bunch of Brown people and just grab them than finding the one white person out of a sea of white folks. Again, I agree no one is safe.
Yes, I get you: a lot of agents will just do the easy thing, you're so right. What I'm wishing was that more journalists would cover this as what I believe it is: the end of the Constitution for all of us. The Supreme Court said 'skin color is probable cause'. No more 14th Amendment, no more 4th.
Yes. And that creates as justice sotomayor said a 2nd class of citizens.
It's all disgusting and horrifying. How we became a country of severe human rights violations in about 6 months is appalling. But I suppose it's not surprising. I just wish there was a non-violent way to stop things. But the Supreme Ct is saying "yes" to their lawlessness.
Yep. He lives in an ivory tower, he always has, and he sees no reason to step outside of his ivory towere ever. The epitome of everything Republicans since Goldwater have claimed to despise (but never actually despised; their actions betray their true desires & aims).
She's a citizen, but doesn't crry her passport or birth certificate, so it's off to detention for her. Very few people can prove their citizenship status on the spot.
But he does think it’s a violation of rights to be denied a Supreme Court seat.
He looks like a rapist to me, but I doubt he has ever been stopped for that.
I expect Brett Kavanaugh gets off on those little fantasies he has. It's pretty clear he's never had any attention of rising to a place of power in order to commit selfless acts of service, it's so he can wield that power to hurt those who can't protect themselves.
It's the continued ugly assertion by these goons that racism is reasonable.
They already ruled that ICE's removal of Kilmar Abrego Garcia was lawless! he sees lawlessness as simply part of the legal process
He can imagine her, while he’s pleasuring himself to the notion of violating her against her consent. After all, he’s a predator.
What makes you think that imagining "others' suffering" would actually make Brett Kavanaugh feel bad? Like many, if not all, RAPE-UBLICANS, he is a sadistic narcissist.
Looking 'illegal' is the sole criterion. Kavanaugh thinks the mother I question is a criminal.
*in question
His perspective is that of a privileged teen boy who knows daddy is going to get any problems taken care of and there will be no consequences for his actions.
Before this year, I believed that most people, when elevated to high office, would rise to the occasion and shed their narrow-mindedness. But today’s America shows us otherwise: small minds catapulted into great positions often remain small.
Clarence Thomas notwithstanding, the conservatives in the majority have lived sheltered lives, believing inequality was solved in the 1960s.
Because “those people” don’t matter to him.
Maybe Kavanaugh would have had more sympathy for the plaintiffs if ICE had accosted them while they were playing a pickup basketball game (something Kavanaugh can imagine doing himself) rather than while they were looking for low wage work (something he can't)..
DC… bsky.app/profile/iwil...
Bothered? Nah, he can imagine it. And he does He gets off to it He LOVES it It's the whole reason he went to law school incomprehension of evils should not be mistaken for lying about not reveling in said evils
But someone standing on his sidewalk is a mortal threat to him.
Because racists don’t see them as humans.
Don’t forget breaking her car windows to grab her. That’s ICE recreational practice now.
Cmon man you’re bringing down the mood at the keg stand
I do wonder how much of an invasion of the 4th Amendment Kavanaugh would see if federal agents were detaining and searching all white men, in suits, near business centers, speaking English with East Coast accents —because that is correlated with perpetrators of white-collar crime.
“May promptly go free after we smash their car windows and drag them screaming from their vehicles”
Leaving their vehicle on the curb unattended
Guess I need to start carrying my citizenship certificate with me every time I walk the dog or go for a run? Thanks, Brett
Well I for one am surprised that someone accused of rape could be so indifferent to the experience of another person.
I wasn’t fully bought into the “SCOTUS will rubber stamp everything he does” argument but that is changing by the day
Right. Because he’s gotten away with alcohol abuse, sexual abuse all with no consequences. As a wealthy, entitled white guy, he’s big on hubris and lacking on empathy.
See the latest videos of unidentified “agents“ stuffing people bodily into vans, not answering questions, Justice Kavanaugh
Will need first aid for that burn 🔥
Drunk guy is willfully detached from reality.
He, Clarence, and Sammy are going to look into Amistead vs. U.S.A., and tell us what the Founding Fathers REALLY intended.
So he is not watching all these videos of citizens protesting and being attacked
Not in his bubble..
He is. He just gets off to it.
📌
A sexual abuser isn't typically your go-to person for fairness.
servile six.
We're so fucked. These people are going to be dropping shit rulings like this for another 30-40 years. And just watch Trump replace Thomas and Alito with 35 year old MAGATS. Kiss this country goodbye, yall.
It’s also false. Cornell Law clinics are representing three clients who were rounded up in the recent raid in NY, ALL HERE LEGALLY, one was deported unlawfully, the other two are still detained. Again: HERE LEGALLY. And no final order of removal for the one deported.
I'm fighting some dipshit on tiktok who's saying non-citizens don't get due process rights, since if you show your papers to ICE, they will just let you go on your way.
Definitely a dipshit.
There is no “here legally” any longer, though. As far as the government sees (including SCOTUS), it’s Trump’s America now, we’re all just here at his pleasure.
Well they still have a bust of Roger Taney in the halls of the court, so no surprise
Does he seriously not know that northern Europeans are also overstaying visas, smuggling stuff, engaging in illegal things?
Basically the rapist decided an apartheid regime is just fine for Brown people.
He too is a SEXUAL PREDATOR!!!
Kavanaugh is so pathetic and so unqualified to be on the Supreme Court. And we never did find out who paid his mortgage, credit card bills and country club dues prior to being nominated. All the Trump appointees need to be removed from the court and Thomas should be impeached.
6 SC justices forgot the Articles CAN'T infringe on Amendments. In fact, they took an oath to PRESERVE & PROTECT the Amendments. They protected the Articles when CO (Amendments) wanted to remove the insurrectionist from the presidential ballot. Amendments can't infringe on Articles, they said.
This is so disconnected from reality. He never reaches the logical conclusions with these decisions.
But it’s no big deal, you know. They (ICE) just ask you a couple of questions then send you on your way. It’s not like they’re sending people to El Salvador.
But it’s no big deal, you know. They (ICE) just ask you a couple of questions then send you on your way. It’s not like they’re sending people to El Salvador.
That is appalling. This is the exact policy used by the Third Reich. It is not reasonable search or seizure to bother people because of race or language, even if legals are detained only briefly. It is the same logic as stopping young women to see if they are pregnant and contemplating abortion.
"it's typically brief" is a statement so much baseless and arbitrary that my jaw drops reading it might come from a supreme court judge.
In other words, our fourth amendment rights are now forfeit. These people have no respect for our Constitution. Zero.
Put Mexican flags on your cars, y’all a.co/d/6ymUyu1
“Hey as long as you can immediately prove you’re one of *the good ones* we will let you go. Maybe. In a few weeks. Depending on how you act.”
"Papers please." The new Amerkka.
"... After making clear ..." what does that even mean?
He knows that’s not how it works. Lying liars gonna lie.
Feeble attempt at what’s happening… Reality….citizens, or those otherwise here legally, can be slammed to the ground, handcuffed and placed in chains; detained sometimes for several days. Some are actually stripped of their legal right to be here by judges. What planet is he living on?
Brett Kavanaugh: Fugitive Slave Act Advocate.
The Gestapo were famous for their respect of law and civility when dealing with “suspects s.” 🙄
Guess when you live in a white privileged bubble you don’t learn about racial profiling or just don’t care. Or maybe just evil. Period.
😡😡😡
As I read his reasoning that ethnicity and language may be relevant, then it should be constitutionally supported to randomly stop white males as statistics show they are overwhelmingly the perpetrators of mass shooting events. Oh. And white undocumented folks are ok?
Shocking…
📌
........ yeah, but he likes beer; probably hangs out with Keg-breath.
Definitely written from the “it’s never happened to me and it WILL never happen to me because I’m a white guy” perspective. Lot’s awareness there. Glad he’s on the bench.
Please don’t ask him about the Fugitive Slave Act. I am afraid of his answer.
If only they weren’t disappeared regardless of citizenship or legal status.
Really showed his opus dei ass here.
Let’s not forget that he’s a rapist in addition to a racist A rapist!
My sister works in a high school in LA and 40 students didn’t show up to school this year because families are too afraid of ICE. The district is laying off teachers.
Deport Kavanaugh POS
Lack of Justice, as always bsky.app/profile/chri...
The most unserious legal mind on the scotus. Thomas, Alito, and Gorsuch are equally full of shit, but at least they are faithful to their analytical underpinnings.
🤔🤔🤔reads like he still “Like Beer”.
He seems to think that the police are interested in what a person they are arresting has to say. It must be nice to be in his world where the police are reasonable and would never ignore and disregard their humanity.
Like the members of ICE can read. Fuck off beer drinking rapist
That guy will do anything for a six pack of Schlitz
How far are we from making Hispanic citizens wear a gold star?
According to my people, Brett himself an illegal immigrant.
He's a complete moron
We need to revolt
Feel free to laugh at me: time was that I supposed that Alito and Kavanaugh might be less-extreme voices compared to Gorsuch. And I got Roberts completely wrong as well.
What attracted the Federalists was his paper on how "birth control is abortion medicine".
That's not what happens, maybe Brett should get off his ass and hit the streets, watch ICE brutalize and kidnap people. This is the problem when elitists are in charge, they don't know how shit works.
Clearly Kavanaugh watches Fox Entertainment.
Huge "why did you leave home without your papers" energy there. As if proving citizenship is a normal and fine thing to do.
Brett "I like my beer" Kavanaugh should be nowhere near the Supreme Court Building let alone helping to decide our laws. This statement is proof that he's not Supreme Court Justice material. This statement says to me that under that robe is a sheet.
But he really likes beer. Hates that ol' Constitution and stuff, but boy....
he’s a fan. he’d like to see it make a mighty comeback
couldn't get constitution ratified w/o adding: "The right of the people to be secure in their persons, houses, papers, and effects, against unreasonable searches and seizures, shall not be violated..."
Me like beer! Me boof! Me born to boof Supreme Court.

I support our state police pulling over every vehicle with a Trump or MAGA sticker and searching it for guns and contraband.
Good God!
Bingo!!!! 😠😡🤬👿
Racial profiling is cool with Brett.
No surprise here. The SCROTUS Gang of Six pounces on every opportunity to rule that the American Constitution is unconstitutional. They stand on their heads, redefine words & make stuff up. They are the enemy of Democracy and human rights and are working hard to turn the US into a Nazi Theocracy.
Looks like these rogue SCOTUS judges are now violating the 14th amendment to protect & defend Trump & not the U.S. Constitution of #WeThePeople The insurrection is ongoing & judges are helping destroy our US Constitution with Trump as dictator. Time to #Invoke14thNow Let’s MAKE 14.3 GREAT AGAIN!
Cavanagh……. Living , two legged proof that if you kiss enough asses and enable whatever Trump demands, you can be as thick as a frozen brick and still sit on the highest court of the land. The whole justice system, top to bottom, is being controlled by the greatest traitor in American history .
Of course his crying ass would think something like this. Way to go Mitch!
He likes beer!
Brett's take here looks like it was written by a 6th grader. What a pat version of reality this is! From someone clearly not looking at the news...or someone who is a moron.
Or both
So, the burden of proof is on each of us to prove, upon demand, our worthiness to be here?
He is clearly living in a bubble of privilege. His is an obscene assumption.
The fact that they're being stopped and questioned based on their skin color is sooooo unconstitutional escapes him?
bsky.app/profile/reic...
Call him by his accurate name: "Rapey Kavanaugh."
He doesn't watch the news because the fast release of citizens is not happening 😈🤮
Arrest a Supreme Court far right justice, and let him ' stay until they figure it out, and all will be good . '
If you’re white, dressed nicely, driving a ‘white’ car then just show ** YOUR PAPERS ** during brief immigration stop…In whose world is he living? Trump’s Whites-Only World where P2025 is realized and Trump renames the USA to Trump Nation. I hoping to be dead before that happens.
Yeah, it's going to be tough to forgive the people that voted for Trump and set all of this into motion...
Does this fool even know what’s in the Bill of Rights or the Constitution? Does he read the newspapers? Does he watch the television reports of how ICE treats people they believe are illegal aliens? Does he ever poke his little head out of his ivory tower’s windows to see the real world at all?
how are these people able to go anywhere in public anymore
Ain’t that something… Elected officials who couldn’t give less of a flying fuck about the laws they got hired to uphold? Fun! Must be a nice 9-5, clock in, ignore your tasks, give your colleagues the Okidoke and clock out.
Brett is a very aware man . There are hours of video footage showing the brutal and violent manner in which victims at surrounded brought down and beat in the head
He's got a great future writing speculative fiction.
Pretty sure we don't need to ask
Dred Scott 2.0
I think we are going to look back at the history and realize that our failure to elect Hillary led directly to the destruction of American democracy.
I don’t see a way out of this aside from the next president rounding up some white country club members on suspicion of being illegal, holding them without any urgency in getting things sorted out, and then almost deporting them to another country.
Is this after they break out the car windows?
“Promptly go free”? He is either lying or willfully ignorant. If he thought he or his family might be at risk of one of these random stops he’d move Heaven and Earth to prevent it. Since it’s “others,” no problem.
Clown court.
Apparently, Lil Brett prefers his fantasy world to the real world Trump and his Storm Troopers are creating.
The 4th Amendment is for all people. Not just citizens. 5th amendment means no one even has to answer your questions.
They can go free after making clear they are citizens????? WTF? How are they supposed to make that clear? Is a thick Spanish accent unclear?
SCOTUS-Approved police state
Fuck off Kavanaugh🖕🤡
Then ask him how he feels about colleges considering race as a factor in admissions. Oh, wait, he already answered that one...
We are rapidly reaching the point where the only solution is to terminate the constitution, permanently exclude all Republicans from public office, and write a new, parliamentary constitution.
What law school did he attend??? Or was he drunk for 3 years? He is entirely—100%!!!—wrong on the law.
Had they even 'briefly' questioned any of the hundreds of South Koreans who they marched away in shackles from their legal jobs the other day?
I don't believe the Supreme Court wants to live in the world they are legislating. I think they know they'll be exempt because they are rich and protected. Consequences don't touch the elite like real people. They are ruling us like a slaughterhouse runs cattle.
We know he doesn't think that. He's just racist and wants to empower other racists and entrench their power to be racist.
I don’t want to know what he thinks of that. I can guess! They want to toll back the clock. I think they want to go all the way back
“Bless you sir, since you affirm you are a citizen, you are free to go with my warm regards.”
Yeah, I can’t figure out how this doesn’t violate the Floyd v NY decision.
"Are you a United States citizen?" "MEOW!" "... you are free to go."
Those same ICE agents while looking at a REAL ID proving some victim's citizenship: "This is fake!" www.rollingstone.com/politics/pol...
During these raids, some of these folks have papers that prove they're here legally. The thugs don't allow them to go to their vehicles to get them and haul them away anyway. This SCOTUS is such BS.
Exactly! But they “look illegal“
Getting slammed to the ground by three thugs who beat you, throw you into an unmarked vehicle…that is not a "typically brief" encounter. They don't ask nicely for ID, they just like gang-banging on defenseless people. Something bad is gonna happen pretty soon, it won't be nice.
So if it's a "brief stop" then it's OK that someone else can police my behavior in public and perhaps ruin my life if they feel like it. Got it. Whew. This democracy thing has gotten so complicated!
“The what act??”
The radical actions of the right wing are ensuring the multi-generational “radicalization” of otherwise calm, sane citizens. Go ahead and call me a “communist” or “socialist” or whatever other hackneyed, pedestrian epithet you choose. I’ll wear it like a badge of honor.
He knows better, he just doesn't care because he cares *more* abt who this ruling helps and he is fine with hurting some in order to advance the power of those he serves. It's awful, yet it's exactly what the Founders foresaw and tried to prevent. Too bad Republicans are too weak to hold their line.
He’s missing the point. It isn’t how long the police need to detain you to ask the questions, it’s the assumption that you should be asked those questions in the first place.
You can tell what media-sphere he lives in.
The right wing, robe wearing, pretend maggot “justices” are pathetic sociopaths, nothing more. Anything they say is absolute bullshit and should not be considered justice. Apparently the KKK has changed up the color of their robes to black.
lawsuit: we have like taped evidence of ICE assaulting people and violating their rights Kavanaugh: okay but they say they're not doing that, who can know
WE KNOW! We can see it with our own eyes!!
The Party told you to reject the evidence of your eyes and ears.
Not my party.
And it is amazing how many people said, okay.
They are "proud" of the work they are doing. You could even call them Proud Boys...
How much weight is the phrase "making clear" carrying? Birth certificate? The presence of their mother with video of baby being born under American flag? White fhk'n privilege.
I have one word for what I think of Brett.... Starts with an FU...ends with an ER
Just say you’re here legally and they’ll let you go. Is that how he thinks this works?
Guess we know how he'd have ruled on 'stop and frisk'.
He’s dumb as fuck you could tell in his hearings dei for white guys
He’s a fucker. Racist bitch
I think you already know.
Zero accountability so they do whatever they want and the ugly gets uglier.
Isn’t the buried lede that the other 5 justices read this and said, “well sure!”
You presume he knows what that is, and that’s not a fair expectation to have for a Supreme Court justice! /j
The SC needs to be reformed. It’s the rot on which everything else is built. It’s unclear to me that the Cotton Whigs in the Democratic Party have the stomach for this fight if and when we take back power, but nothing else matters.
THREE to SEVEN days without contact or legal representation is considered "promptly free to go?" WTF!! DISSOLVE SCOTUS and replace with 13 having mandatory term limits!!
This is how you legalize fascism, folks. Why didn’t Barak Obama fight harder when Mitch McConnell blocked the appointment of Merrick Garland? Turns out it is not so good to be too cool for school….
He is so disgusting.
I’m sure he and the others are all over the Epstein files. No Doubt In My Mind
"These individuals, freedoms expeditiously restored, may go about their day feeling great pride in having proven their right to exist in the state, and cooperating with our heroic masked agents."
This is much better written than Brett’s.
The SCOTUS-in-a-bubble defense.
the DEMS need to set up right now a shadow number of Federal Judges and Prosecutors to serve as a shadow SC for guidance in fighting this in the courts...
I guess I have to carry my passport with me everywhere now
An opinion from someone who will never ever know the terror of being targeted by ICE for his race.
So being detained no matter how briefly is ok now?
bsky.app/profile/core... many such cases
When I read things like what Pascal writes, my thought is let’s try it on you first. When you manage to get back, if you get back, we can sit down and discuss how you feel about unlawful detentions.
Good grief, you mean this isn’t satire he wrote?!
Gosh, what happens when ICE seizes your ID and phone, and flies you to a distant country where, once you've left the plane, you're on your own, and there's no American consulate to help you? What then?
Brett has no morals. He isn't impartial. He doesn't care about law and justice. He likes beer. MAGA
So tell me if I've got this right. Federal cops have a constitutional right to be blatantly racist. assets.bwbx.io/documents/us... KRISTI NOEM, SECRETARY, DEPARTMENT OF HOMELAND SECURITY, ET AL. U. PEDRO VASQUEZ PERDOMO, ET AL. ON APPLICATION FOR STAY [September 8, 2025]
Let's not forget that these FedSoc characters pretty much want to roll back to that era. So he's probably fine with it.
Brett Kavabaugh, in the real world, that’s not how it goes down. When you have ill-trained, ICE agents thrown onto the streets, you get abuses of civil liberties and wrongful detentions. The problem is, Kavabaugh lives in a bubble and is naïve towards the hardships of being brown in the U.S. today.
I think the record before the Court on the appeal itself contained evidence that 100% contradicted that bullshit.
Brett was a DEI hire. They only had one sex pest (Thomas) and needed a second.
Man makes me wish I had a harder, more targeted skill set.
Has he even read the 4th Amendment? Never mind. The remedial classes moniker answers the question.
I’m so glad I am free to go as long as I can ”make it clear” to govt goons that I’m a citizen. Brett looks worse than ever.
Unreasonable search and seizure is fine because if you're not guilty they let you go!
Oh, you just make it clear to them that you're a citizen, no problem! Kavanaugh would fall for the Wallet Inspector
There is no way to make it clear that you’re a citizen. That’s the rub.
Police should stop his ass everywhere You look illegal. But they wouldn't do that
Any democrat running for office needs to support expanding the SC.
Maybe someone can give him a live demonstration on how these “brief“ incidents take place. They don’t just ask for id and often you end up in jail for days.
Maybe better not to ask that
This is pure "If you're not guilty then why are you so afraid?" bullshit. Reason #1, when given this power, 19 yr old incel is going to abuse it all to hell. First he disbelieves your GOVERNMENT ISSUED REAL ID, then he detains you when you protest as "extra guilty-like" and now you're disappeared
Or maybe he's just evilly trolling, knowing full well this is not how it works?
Maybe he sees himself as a different kind of judge.
The guy whined and cried that he was being briefly questioned but is ok with citizens being “briefly” detained with no cause.
Briefly questioned to get a very powerful position in accordance with all procedures.
🎯💯
Yes, but THAT questioning could have "ruined his life" by costing him a "deserved" position as one of the country's most powerful people, relegating him to a slightly less powerful job. The people he's writing about just risk jail or deportation: no big deal when it happens to little people.
Because he 100% believes that people like *him* will not be affected, and people unlike him do not matter. A) He's wrong, and B) Even if he were right, it would be an awful (and very anti-American) take on how the law works.
I JUST REALLY LIKE BEER
This part
Dude missed the point completely, huh? A SCOTUS judge pretends not to understand what “freedom” actually means.
The GOP Death Squads literally grab people in the street and throw them to the ground before they ask a single question. The GOP Supreme Court is obviously lying.
The federal judge can craft a new injunction, though, stating that ICE can only use the minimum force necessary to quickly detain an individual at the location of the stop, and ask them their identity and immigration status. They can’t arrest them without more. So everyone should refuse to answer.
An issue is that no one is guaranteed to go "quickly free" just by showing their papers. Their papers are often not accepted they swept up, no one tells family where they are going, what the charge actually is and when and if you will be released.
Right. Because who runs to the carryout with their file folders?
As bad and stupid as Kavanaugh is the whole concept is worse. So if someone is legal here, the stop will be brief??? How to ascertain legality? We will have to carry papers now??? Wtf. They think the constitution is a joke.
Until we show we're willing to do something disruptive enough to force the issue, the constitution is whatever these six idiots say it is.
"This passport is fake. Step out of the car ma'am." And now you're in ICE detention, the private prisons get their $$, and you're stuck until you pay a lawyer who has to wait in a line around the block to plead your case before a Military "Judge" who takes 4 hour lunch breaks.
Rape Culture protects its own.
Instead of going into work at 8 am [Like I've done for years] I now start at 5 am just so I can walk my Latino looking grandson home from school. Glad I had this all set in place a few weeks ago. I see the way the tide is turning. This is so very wrong!!!
