“A court order is not advisory, and it is not conditional,” Blackwell said. “It is not something that any agency can treat as optional as it decides how or whether to comply.”
During the hearing, Le acknowledged that many at the DHS did not understand the seriousness of an order from a federal judge.
“It took a long, long, long time, and many orders to show cause to explain and let them know that if you don’t fix it, I’m going to quit and you’re going to be dragging yourself into court,” she said
So.... Having nobody in the position will lead to less effective ICE defense against wrongful detainments? Was she helping enable ICE send people to Texas? Or was she sabotaging the fascism from within and doing what y'all advocate, "don't quit, make them fire you"?
I think all kitties should be adored indoor kitties, but a backyard kitty is better than a completely feral cat and a lonely uncatted person. For instance they'll probably do the storm refuge thing again, and feed it so it will kill fewer birds, and they'll enjoy time together even if it's not pettable.
Tabby cat patterns shift over time as the multicolored hairs of their fur grows. Which is why it's a dumb idea for a tattoo. But maybe in the moment they just really liked the design.
HIPAA laws would have prevented hospital personnel from speaking publicly about this, and of course ICE was hushing it up, seems like his friends broke the story after he was out.
My previous cat didn't give a damn about catnip etc either, but she still liked that flavor of dental treats. I have my doubts about whether they actually taste like catnip or contain any, because nobody is getting high off them. Also my present cat, who does react to dried catnip/silver vine, didn't eat any of the catnip plant I put on the windowsill. She does eat grass every day (and hair ties to such a degree I had to ban them, but that's a different story) so I think real catnip isn't tasty. I like them better than the salmon flavor because they don't smell like fish. And she doesn't care for the chicken flavor.
