ICE’s heavy-handed immigration enforcement was tried once before – by Arizona’s notorious sheriff Joe Arpaio in the early 2000s The Trump administration’s immigration detention policies appear to be, in part, inspired by the heavy-handed tactics of the former Arizona sheriff.

ICE’s tactics aren’t new.

Years ago, sheriff Joe Arpaio turned Arizona into a testing ground for aggressive immigration enforcement including mass detentions, racial profiling and tent jails.

Much of it was later ruled unconstitutional.

This is an interesting read from Judge Luttig, but it plays down how much the GOP cultivated and pushed this kind of ahistorical nonsense which Clarence Thomas is now a full believer in. It's great to say that's not the kind of conservatism he believes in, but it has been there for quite some time.

It is wild how long Peter #Thiel got away with lying about Jeffrey #Epstein.

He tried to downplay their connection, but emails prove they met constantly for years.

Epstein even invested tens of millions into Thiel's ventures and even acted as his personal tax advisor

Peter Thiel-backed group contributes $2.5 million to oppose Virginia redistricting Thiel has made no secret of his skepticism about democracy, writing in a 2009 essay: “I no longer believe that freedom and democracy are compatible.”

A group linked to tech billionaire Peter Thiel contributed $2.5 million to the PAC that sparked outrage last month by sending out mailers targeting Black voters that compared the referendum to the Ku Klux Klan and Jim Crow-era voting restrictions.
