The ruling from the New York-based Second Circuit Court of Appeals is the first in the nation to reject the Trump administration's position that nearly all undocumented immigrants must be detained.

He posted a picture of shells arranged to read "8647" on the beach:

 

Two-thirds of the state’s counties ban or heavily limit solar. Now, those blanket restrictions are going away, though counties can still bar individual projects.

 

“At a time when gas prices are soaring, the Trump Administration chose to further stifle new wind energy production, and worse, waste taxpayer money doing it,” said Gov. Mikie Sherrill.

 

Officials have argued in court filings that the projects are exempt from federally required assessments, but are scrambling after a judge disagreed.

If your local rapid response is like mine, they're watching existing ICE facilities and will see increased activity and new vehicles in the coming months

They're going to kick something else out of the building and make the ICE office bigger, allowing for more agents running around kidnapping people.

I'd be a little bit hesitant about that kind of inference. Per the article:

It does not include more than 100 planned ICE locations across many states—including California, New York, and New Jersey—where WIRED has not viewed every specific address.

So there are a whole lot more locations that aren't public yet. It feels more like they're simply trying to take the Minnesota approach national, and levy war on the whole country at once, rather than specifically target elections.

The linked Wired article. Which is supposed to be from an incomplete collection of documents that Wired reporters managed to get ahold of.

The underlying chart site Wired used for publishing the list is here

No 429 here. Probably a temporary issue with archive sites getting hammered.

Wired itself has a paywall, and you're probably hitting that but blocking the pop-over which tells you about it.

Its hard to import them in quantities of a few hundred thousand, and cheaper to print them than to buy in quantities of a hundred

They understand what they're doing just fine. It's a choice to deride doing the right thing as "virtue signaling" and embrace evil.

For example, Trump has been seen to read just one book:

Last April, perhaps in a surge of Czech nationalism, Ivana Trump told her lawyer Michael Kennedy that from time to time her husband reads a book of Hitler's collected speeches, My New Order, which he keeps in a cabinet by his bed. Kennedy now guards a copy of My New Order in a closet at his office, as if it were a grenade. Hitler's speeches, from his earliest days up through the Phony War of 1939, reveal his extraordinary ability as a master propagandist.

"Did your cousin John give you the Hitler speeches?" I asked Trump.

Trump hesitated. "Who told you that?"

"I don't remember," I said.

"Actually, it was my friend Marty Davis from Paramount who gave me a copy of Mein Kampf, and he's a Jew." ("I did give him a book about Hitler," Marty Davis said. "But it was My New Order, Hitler's speeches, not Mein Kampf. I thought he would find it interesting. I am his friend, but I'm not Jewish.")

Later, Trump returned to this subject. "If I had these speeches, and I am not saying that I do, I would never read them."

Literally happening at scale already. Its not yet full victory, but it slows down ICE and limits their ability to take people at random

Expired dildos. No point in letting ICE have fun.

Intentional deescalation does more right now than having the people closest to ICE or Border Patrol agents carrying weapons.

The standard for now is that responders with guns stay back to deter massacres.

Anywhere in public is great. If you're in a place where ICE is less active, you'll want to package the whistles with instructions to alert the local rapid response hotline.
