The weirdest part, watching Americans get dragged away from town hall meetings is this:

Nobody stands up for the person being dragged away. They just film it.

What’s up with that?

I mean sure, it’s not like everybody steps up here in Europe either. But i’ve been to a lot of demonstrations and some of those got hairy with the cops. And there’s always some part of people that go in there to block the cops.

Yes, it takes guts. But all people? Am I just not seeing it? 🤔

“We've got them literally on the run, which hadn't happened up until now. Foot soldiers and corporals and captains, et cetera always thought that they could keep on vacationing in Europe and other exotic places, and they can't do that anymore.”

2 of the top officials at US #Immigration & Customs Enforcement have been removed from their jobs amid frustration among #Trump officials that officers aren’t ramping up #arrests & #deportations fast enough to meet Trump’s goals & that some immigrant detainees have been released.

#ICE staff were informed in an email Tuesday that Russell Hott & Peter Berg, the top two officials in the enforcement division of 2, have been reassigned.

Continued thread

The office has long operated independently of #ICE out of concern that the #minors#undocumented family members & sponsors may not come forward to claim them, fearing arrest.

A similar effort during #Trump’s first term drew swift outrage from #CivilLiberties groups who said it forced #children to stay in federal custody longer, & led to the #arrests of immigrant adults who had no #criminal histories.
