They really need to move on this quickly. They should have upheld the ruling and forced Trump to appeal to the Supreme Court.
Lawrence O’Donnell mentioned in his show last night that Judge Breyer in the original ruling is the brother of former Supreme Court Justice Stephen Breyer.
That’s a fair point. Everyone needs to make their own choice about how to resist.
(But not my security services. UKian, here!) 
Its almost like they didn’t think how their policies would affect…
Everything.
He’s admitting he created a real problem.
“Our great Farmers and people in the Hotel and Leisure business have been stating that our very aggressive policy on immigration is taking very good, long time workers away from them, with those jobs being almost impossible to replace,”
“Our farmers are being hurt badly,” Trump said during an event in the White House East Room when asked about his position. “You know, they have very good workers. They’ve worked for them for 20 years. They’re not citizens, but they’ve turned out to be, you know, great.”
Trump said he plans to sign an executive order to address the situation, adding that it will take a “common sense” approach. “We can’t take farmers, take all their people and send them back because they don’t have maybe what they’re supposed to have, maybe not,” Trump said.
Translation: I will only target businesses in cities that Democrats control.
Exactly. I may have missed some, but it certainly appears that the militarized raids are occurring where they can hurt blue cities and states, and sparing red. I do not believe that is coincidental. It’s all political.
It’s also fucking racist, of course. White farmers are a core part of his base. Maybe he’s even hearing an echo of the supposed problems faced by white South African farmers.
(Which makes me wonder how those white SA “refugees” are settling in. Where are they in the US? Did they stick together, or disperse widely? What sort of jobs are they doing now? Seems like a good topic for a long read in some publication.)
I saw an article on that somewhere yesterday. One family was just dumped in a hotel in Montana. They have no job opportunities, no place to live, and no food. They haven’t received any support of any kind and were wondering why. Their prop value is over as far as Trumpy is concerned.
They are rapidly learning how, exactly, Il Douche operates. They may or may not be racist assholes, but they are gonna wind up yet more victims of his “people have no value” mindset.
Interesting. I always thought that their trip to the United States was much more planned. I thought that some local group had already bought land in some remote place with no soul around and started a kind of model village/propaganda. This is the kind of thing that has been done for years in Latin American countries, usually by religious groups such as Protestants and the Reverend Moon´s church.
Maybe not all refugees from the “white genocide” were farmers after all…
My inevitable suggestion that whenever we discuss “farmers” in a political context is that we replace the term with the more correct “landowners”.
Doubt it. Actual wealthy landowners don’t give away their land.
Land is blood.
Or in the US, land stealers. I’ve met people who grew up on farms here that their families owned, all the way back to being given that land under rhe auspices of the Homestead Act. Sometimes I get up enough gumption to ask what they think about that land being stolen from slaughtered or displaced indigenous people. They never want to talk with me about that.
Really it’s the same everywhere. England? Enclosure Acts. SA? Imperialism. And so on.

As an addon: post-colonial countries? Collaborators got the land the colonisers doled out to treacherous natives after they moved on the pesky natives. Where to? Whatever the most marginal land in the territory was. Every time.
Trump’s March 25 executive order sought to compel officials to require documentary proof of citizenship for everyone registering to vote for federal elections, accept only mailed ballots received by Election Day and condition federal election grant funding on states adhering to the new ballot deadline.
The group of attorneys general said the directive “usurps the States’ constitutional power and seeks to amend election law by fiat.”
File under: leopards and faces. Too bad those workers didn’t have a smarter boss.
God dammit. More fucking court Tetris.
And at the end of it all there’s still no guarantee that FfvC will “hand over” control of deployment.
Does the National Guard follow the law or does it follow the dictator? Are we in a fucking constitutional crisis YET?
Of the few well-honed abilities of the vile trumpies, it can generally be agreed that they’ve got the weakest links of the American justice system well mapped out. Most notably the ability to drag the process out beyond the point where any ruling can make much difference. @#$!!
Yet the “emergency” is not enough to keep 
from the theater, right? Jimmy Kimmel does an excellent job of exposing his lies about LA:
Well, they might not be landowners much longer. Maybe they voted for folks involved in a land grab:
We’ll see how the regime’s policies work out for them. 
I’m sure someone will bring that up when the inevitable crying over their losses begins…
