The case focused on a policy shift…that authorized #DHS to launch quick #deportations, across the country & without court proceedings, of undocumented immigrants who cannot prove they have lived in the country for >2yrs.
Known as expedited removal, such deportations have been carried out for decades, but of people arrested at or near the southern border. The #Trump admin sought to expand the practice nationwide, to hasten the removal of people arrested deep inside the country.

Judge Jia M. Cobb rejected what she called “a truly startling argument” from the government.

A federal judge on Friday blocked the #Trump admin from carrying out fast-track #deportations of people detained far from the southern border, removing, for now, one of the cornerstones of Trump’s campaign to carry out #MassDeportations.

Over 3 hours, fed agents demanded ID from the mems of 2 prv contr crews at WA's largest active blaze.

"The reason is that immigrant workers aren’t spread evenly across the economy. They’re strongly concentrated in certain industries and occupations, where they constitute a large share, sometimes a majority, of the work force. As a result, the Trump administration’s latter-day Edict of Expulsion will be far more disruptive to the economy than the aggregate number of workers deported might suggest."

"President Donald Trump famously likes his steaks well-done. Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. follows a 'carnivore diet.' In April, The New York Times declared, 'Meat Is Back, on Plates and in Politics' and that a protein craze is sweeping the nation."

As Krugman says, immigrant workers are concentrated in areas like agriculture, meatpacking, senior care, construction work, and more.

Cutting off your hand in the hope that might make your whole body feel lighter and better may prove to be an unwise decision, when you realize that you're causing pain to your body and you needed the things that hand did for you.

Paul Krugman says that MAGA may need to think about how deportying immigrants will affect MAGA themselves:

"ICEing the economy will make native-born Americans substantially worse off."

"Losing large numbers of workers sounds as if it will be bad for the U.S. economy. In fact, it will be worse than you may think."
