#SCOTUS granted a #DOJ request to put on hold a federal judge's order temporarily barring agents from stopping or detaining people without "reasonable suspicion" they are in the country illegally, by relying on #race or #ethnicity, or if they speak #Spanish or English with an #accent, among other factors.

#SCOTUS’ 3 liberal justices publicly dissented.
Los Angeles-based U.S. District Judge Maame Frimpong had issued the order on July 11. Frimpong found that the #Trump admin's actions likely violated the #US #Constitution's #4thAmendment protection against unreasonable searches & seizures. The judge's order applied to her court's jurisdiction covering much of Southern #California.

…A group of #Latino people caught up in the #raids, including some who are US #citizens, mounted a proposed class action lawsuit against #Trump admin officials in Los Angeles federal court in July.
The lawsuit alleged a pattern of "roving" patrols by masked & heavily armed agents conducting interrogations & detentions based on #RacialProfiling that resemble "brazen, midday kidnappings."

One plaintiff, Jason Gavidia, claimed that agents roughed him up after disbelieving his statements to them that he is a #US #citizen, demanding to know the name of the hospital where he was born.
"Individuals with #brown skin are approached or pulled aside by unidentified federal agents, suddenly & with a show of force, & made to answer questions about who they are & where they are from," the lawsuit stated.
#Trump #law #immigration #ICE #Gestapo #Nazis #WhiteSupremacy #SCOTUS #ActivistCourt
Frimpong issued the temporary restraining order [#TRO] halting agents from using race or #ethnicity, #language, presence at a particular #location such as a car wash or tow yard, or type of #work, to carry out stops or arrests, as none of those factors alone can establish "reasonable suspicion" of illegality.
#Trump #law #immigration #ICE #Gestapo #Nazis #StateSponsoredAbduction #WhiteChristianNationalism #WhiteSupremacy #SCOTUS #ActivistCourt
The San Francisco-based #9thCircuit Court of Appeals on Aug. 1 denied the administration's request to lift Frimpong's order.
But apparently #SCOTUS doesn’t give a shit about the US #Constitution.

I wish that this was sarcasm, but nowadays I can really imagine Trump giving FBI the order to face-identify everyone who is booing.
The only solution is to overwhelm them, that there is so much protest and booing that their 'system' grinds to a halt.
The weirdest thing is that the #Republicans support this. They used to say that they support individual freedom.
Now it shows they have no program, they have no spine. They ballooned the deficit.

I've been reading Talia Lavin's book Wild Faith: How the Christian Right Is Taking Over America (NY: Legacy, 2024). Some excerpts:
“Around 14 percent of the US population, nearly 50 million people, identify themselves as white evangelical Protestants."

" While ICE wears masks, the proud Americans in the streets wanted Trump to know who they are. They came from all walks of life carrying signs such as 'Free DC, 'protect DC home rule' and 'stop the Trump takeover.' "

"Tonight, we have the specter of an American president trying to take control of an American city for thinly veiled political reasons. Not for the first time, or even the second, but for the third. This time, Donald Trump lacks even the veneer of justification he asserted in Los Angeles, when he claimed anti-ICE protests were out of control."

"Although it has become trite to speculate about what Republicans would say if a Democratic president engaged in the behavior Trump exhibits daily, this open attack of the president on an American city is a new level of unhinged. …
Trump’s threats against American citizens are outrageous, but they also feel desperate."

"The Epstein scandal does not seem to be going away — no matter how much Donald Trump does his best to put a lid on it. While most members of Congress have fallen in line with his demand to stop all talk of Jeffrey Epstein, the same cannot be said for some charter members of the MAGA base, from Marjorie Taylor Greene to James O’Keefe."

"The economy is tanking — no matter how much the White House attempts to spin away dismal jobs numbers, shift the blame to Jerome Powell or otherwise pretend that his ridiculous tariff policies are not making the cost of nearly everything more expensive.
This is why, I fear, the winds of war are blowing."

TBH, I do know #Trans people that literally fled the #USA because of #Trump, #Project2025 and #TransGenocide being so obviously on the agenda that it's like being handed over a recording of the Liberation of Concentration Camps in November 1932 and being given the chance to #GTFO!
I read in many places about the bootlicking that billionaire IT CEO's had to do to #Trump during their dinner.
But seeing and hearing it adds another dimension. This must have been so embarrassing to all of them.
Here we have people who have risen to the top of their field, yet they grovel in front of Trump and thank him for all the 'wonderful' things he has done.
This is what Germany must have experienced at the end of the 30's.
It is good that there are video recordings.

I hope the 64% of young white Gen Z who voted for Trump are happy with what they chose for themselves and for everyone else including their children and grandchildren.
I hope the thrill of asserting straight male dominance is sufficient to cancel out the economic suffering, damage to the environment, global instability, and destruction of federal programs including the CDC that we've gotten with Trump.
I hope the thrill of being able to abuse women and LGBTQ people, to mock wokeness, that many young male voters say spurred their votes for Trump — because "Biden" curbed their freedoms during the pandemic, they want to pretend — makes up for all the precarity and damage their votes have ushered in for themselves and generations to come. Who cares about climate change and the future, after all?
"The root of fascism is weakness and insecurity. We have been told that aggression is strength, but that has always been a lie. Cults of violence and war are cults of frailty. With the Trump Administration, we are seeing this play out day-by-day."

"The image of Vladimir Putin striding into Beijing’s Great Hall of the People, greeted by Xi Jinping’s and Narendra Modi’s smiles, was not just another foreign policy photo‑op. It was a dramatic staging of America’s diminishing clout, a tableau that signaled to the world that the United States has drifted from architect of global order to anxious onlooker."

"By antagonizing friends and foes alike, Trump has isolated the U.S. globally, creating the ideal conditions for Russia, China, and India to join hands in what could be a globally destabilizing alliance. That’s the irony of his quest for a Nobel Peace Prize: The man who wants to rename the Department of Defense the Department of War has rapidly made the world a much more dangerous place."

Intelligence in this context is measured working together and developing others?,,, [SENSITIVE CONTENT]
@mc Seems about right what you said... and I was going to ask how intelligence might look in today's world...
Maybe creating something big but even with that seems what clever people lack as character or training in their personality so even those super-programmers etc can't see to involve people who are medium-intelligence or middle-grounds of people / diversity). And so this maybe widens the gap like a people without apprenticeship or apprentices... (electrician teaching a new electrician or even grandparents in the day passing on knowledge).
So I agree. And I'm not sure what would be intelligence without actually working together as that meaning (what do you think of that)...
I can imagine a revolutionary 'new' thing made by people but it would just be wasted intelligence or wasted tool or new toy / new tech code thing we don't really need more than the human stuff... and like the rest happening now the good is just used against ourselves or to distract us eventually...
And this is almost shown by #Mastodon which might still have a big chance if people really make #living / practicing #intelligence or what they truly love and liek together while seeing need to incorporate that mass of affinity or friendships (and both sometimes).... Hope that makes sense... The last lines should be clear.
It seems it's a #human thing, always #fighting to kill an enemy together (#wars keep us productive and busy) and then end up fighting each other when that's done or as separate states/countries. Just never enough...
Even though I do think 'switching' the brain totally to what we love and like can keep us focused and less out of trouble for everyone so enough things are made with love / care etc, rather than diss / throw stones at things / hate everything... like even #Trump and all these leaders people hate (hundred on those #Musk #Bezos #GAFAM #Mata hashtags... but what of building their own group or schools of thought for themselves to work and own culture.... besides hating... Hm!
Well this is my effort
#FreeSchool is my hashtag for my version of 'follow and believe in me'. I think people can be allowed to do most things... and it is measurable but developing on Tech and not people isn't enough at all...
What do you think?

It is just laughable to hear Trump saying these things about the economy.
- Under Biden, we were on a very downward path
- We are going to have tremendous job growth, unprecedented
- In history, there has never been anything like it
- And our big year won't be till 2027
Building the people up, on top of Tech... [SENSITIVE CONTENT]
@garyackerman This is a good post for Mastodon or Twitter because "Social presence isn’t community." is a good quote here by #GaryAckerman.
Any #platform and people that aren't really building actively, with people daily, and personally, remains "just another platform" or "slightly better" version of #Twitter and *never* quite a movement that way with people towards training to respect each other / learning what that means / dedicating themselves more than distracting themselves via #SocialMedia and the same imported stuff elsewhere / #mainstream.
The point is: rather than people making personal things and improve or work together / merge things, they would rather you are over there and they here... never to question themselves or be questioned by others towards #freedom or similar things which finger can be put on... if willing to #learn.
So the #tech is there but not the will of people building *each other up* (not waiting for #Trump or another magic way, just to do it themselves #DIY).
Many DO NOT want to do much of this building personally or being responsible (even with what they #like and #love) and that is almost the #reason why we have #war or others doing #wars for us exist because FRANKLY we can't make #FRIENDS (with anyone!) and can't maintain anything more than an aesthetic on or offline (you would think it's easier online even to pretend since it's more distant). And job and colleagues are often not deep friends or can't be under contract, so even they can come and go as the work does! If you ever leave your work or made redundant you'll soon realise this and what "friend: can mean in modern day disposable life.
Basic #Friendships for the way - but it's not on the agenda for most - to make the world less about strangers and more about work with them. Friends eventually and each at their own definition I think is possible.
