Tonight, whiny young Bill is crowing about how many ICE claims to have “grabbed off the streets” in and around Minneapolis. The claim is nearly 4,000 people.
I doubt the real figure is that high — as this is a “Noem-eyes only” number — and so likely inflated, for her agit-prop purposes.
Even so, we can count the number of habeas petitions, as it is undisputed that almost all these people (likely fewer than 3,000) were grabbed without any judicial warrant — and no probable cause.
So — there are are now well over 1,800 covered by either a (i) putative class action, or (ii) individual habeas petitions. It is my experienced opinion that most of these will ultimately… succeed. The kidnapped people will be set free.
All of this was just a goddamn dumb show — strictly for Tangerine campaign videos. No actual lasting effect.
So Bill — do sit your John Brown hindparts down, and let the adults handle this. Your Constitution is at work. Thank the goddesses.
[And… A Tangential Confidential Note To Hinderaker: we wish you “good luck” in using “in-the-tank” for GOP polling — to convince your hard core MAGAts to keep doubling down on the wipe-out immigration cruelty, through the mid-terms. Blue Tsunami, inbound.
