What’s the point of a Congressional Order anymore?

Unvetted masked men. I’m going to assume anyone that wants to work for ICE is a rapist and murderer.

>Immigration Equality released a survey last year finding “systemic” mistreatment of LGBTQ+ and HIV-positive people in immigration detention. About one third of the respondents reported sexual and physical abuse or harassment, and nearly all reported verbal abuse, including threats of violence. Most said they received inadequate medical care or were denied care outright.
>Congress directed the Department of Homeland Security, the parent agency of ICE, to report the number of transgender people in detention starting in 2021, according to the Vera Institute.
Trump Admin have defied court orders to track LGBTQ people to prevent them from mistreatment, violence, and ensure access to medical care.

Get used to these phrases everyone. It hasn’t been six months but Project 2025 is nearer to the end than the beginning. And if somehow they finish their playbook, that doesn’t mean they’re going to stop.

While I would like for the gov’t to ignore me and leave me alone, as a Trans person this is not how I wanted it done.
Jesus.
Time to start looking for how to live off the grid.

IF this country ever regains its sanity and that’s a very big IF, ICE needs to be dismantled and rebuilt from the ground up

For a group which so regularly throws up the Constitution, they really seem unaware of the powers vested in them by Article I. It should be a prerequisite for every office holder in this country to watch the boxes set of The West Wing before being sworn in.

Hundreds of thousands (millions?) of people took an oath to the constitution and all it will take is ONE individual to uphold it.

I wonder if this is because they are actually disappearing or because they are being recorded based on sex rather than gender. Neither would surprise me.

Executive order is a wish Congress makes the law

Did they just change their names on paper or are they gone/killed? Disappeared is s broad word that can make someone think the worst.
Edit. Yall I know it’s a bad thing and something that Noone should have to endure. I was focused on their survival with this comment. Alive people can tell their experience.

When are we going to stop pretending that the law or congressional orders have any bearing on their actions?

This seems to be confirming the worst fears of our community. Any of us in a red state need to get to a blue sanctuary city by any means necessary. I feel so awful for everyone in those facilities.

So government is officially unchecked. Is there a Constitutional Amendment that citizens have to protect ourselves..?

Welcome to the rule of the hateful, anti-biblical/anti-christian, racist, sexist homophobic evangelical TV/media cult (MAGA rendition). They started going completely off the rails about 30-40 years ago, have never paid taxes, met up with White Nationalism, and are now in key positions of control within the US government. I guess now we know why they were always so worried about other religions having too much „influence“. This bigotry against trans people, is only the beginning.
