"With polls showing more Americans now favor abolishing ICE than keeping it, a lot of people will be disappointed to learn that the law is set up to make it almost impossible to hold anyone accountable for killing Renee Good. From sovereign immunity, to the Federal Officer Removal Statute, to the decline of Bivens, to qualified immunity, the whole system is arrayed to shield federal agents from legal redress."
"Speaking of the Minnesota ICE surge, we moved a step closer to a genuine Third Amendment case after the Department of Homeland Security pressured Hilton Hotels into dropping a franchisee that had refused to rent rooms to DHS. And finally, Judge James Ho published a broadside against fellow judges in his bid to reach the top of the Trump administration's Supreme Court wishlist. And all he had to do was mock judges receiving violent threats and dishonor a judge's murdered son."
Polls now show more Americans favor abolishing ICE than keeping it. Multiple legal doctrines—sovereign immunity, the Federal Officer Removal Statute, the decline of Bivens remedies, and qualified immunity—create formidable barriers to suing federal agents and impede accountability for deaths like Renee Good’s. The Minnesota ICE surge moved closer to a potential Third Amendment case after the Department of Homeland Security pressured Hilton Hotels to drop a franchisee that refused to rent rooms to DHS. Judge James Ho published a forceful critique of fellow judges while pursuing elevation on a conservative Supreme Court shortlist, including mocking threatened judges and dishonoring a judge’s murdered son.
