Got to love the way communities are standing up to DHS and not allowing warehouses converted into concentration camps in their backyards. At least most folk understand history and will not succumb to fascist authoritarian rule.
Every day I’m asking how Scott comes up with all of this good news. But then this community reminds me the resistance is powerful, contagious, and spreading. WE are the good news.
Thats for sure! I was surprised, but happy to see Sheriff Judd speak out on the reality that deportations have primarily affected non-criminal working people who contribute to Florida's economy.
From what I've seen over the years, Judd and many other Central Florida sheriffs are far from liberal, but they still see it's wrong to arrest, detain & deport innocent people.
FL has a lot of nursing homes, continuing care facilities, and seniors who rely on home health aides. Between the cuts to Medicaid in the big ugly bill, the revocation of temporary protective status ((TPS) for Haitians (and others), and the deportations of foreign-born healthcare workers, Florida is in a world of hurt with its aging population.
Not everyone is insane. Most people were raised right, are empathetic, and believe in the American dream. That the people currently in power are insane is due to their own machinations, and it’s up to the rest of us to remove them. Quickly!!! We’re running out of time!!!
Agree.Not everyone is insane.However, poor education and the American belief in cowboy syndrome that views emotional response as weakness and strength reliant on an individual's ability to "pull yourself up by your bootstraps" is an ingrained belief in many. Winning demands a shift in values through honesty, cooperation and caring from the rest of US.
Not the kool-aid drinking repubs! They have no empathy and were not raised right if they ever voted for a fucking racist, coin-operated conman convicted of 34 counts of fraud, grabbing women by their genitals, failed reality star! I hate all of these idiots that ever voted for THIS, let alone 3 times!
It's been a long time coming, and its not like warning wasn't given, but it's encouraging to see red state Florida sheriffs standing up for the people they are supposed to serve and protect, citizens or not! So many law enforcement agencies are violating their missions by supporting the evil trump regime agenda. Seattle rocks! As does every municipality putting some teeth into their anti-ICE legislation. Let's go‼️
It’s always inspiring to read about “red” voters who are finally pushing back – not to mention the courts and the “blue” masses. Thank the gods that so many voices are now shouting out for Resistance!
I agree - it is nice to see MAGA voters, people who supported Trump, get a reality check
But Trump supporters need to know beyond any doubt that THIS IS THEIR FAULT - THEY DID THIS TO OUR COUNTRY - lost your job - your fault - can't afford coffee or groceries - your fault - ICE Terrorism happening in your patch - YOUR FAULT MAGA - our country is in sixteen different kinds of crisis and it is the fault of the people who put Trump in the White House DESPITE being warned - they knew better than the jurors who convicted Trump of 34 felony counts of fraud and sexual assault - MAGA loved the hate & the disrespect - but hate & disrespect & power tripping are not grounds on which to build a strong or stable country
Proud to live in King County Washington, where my council member Teresa Mosqueda holds Strong, on behalf of immigrants, citizens and non-citizens alike. “…We cannot make it clear enough. We do not want this in Seattle, we do not want this in our county, we do not want this in our ports ... We want ICE out of our communities”

I wish more states, cities, towns, etc. wrote laws banning ICE.
It took the sheriff's this long to figure out the deportations are wrong? Well, better late than never.
Someone posted a picture on Instagram of Trump, Noem, Bondi, Hegseth and Patel all in orange with handcuffs. There's the dream and it will happen.
Do we love that dream, dear Sylvia, more and more decent people dreaming it. We all ought to wake up and make it reality!
Every day I’m asking how Scott comes up with all of this good news. But then this community reminds me the resistance is powerful, contagious, and spreading. WE are the good news.
Keep it up, everyone 💪
Right on, Sam!
When Trump loses Florida Sheriffs on deportations, you know he is in trouble.

So proud of Seattle and all the areas laying out rules for no deportation centers in their midst!!!
Me too.
DeSantis needs to Listen. He's Destroying America, the Everglades, Panther Habitat, and Florida for the Working Class
the fault of the MAGA who elected him
Yes, Deathsantis. 👿🤬

Thank you, Scott, for more good news….👏 😊 💙💙💙

Dian,
you stated it so well.
I agree 200%...ALL repubs fault!
Why don't. you call these "detainment centers" what they are: concentration camps.
Wow. I’m blown away by this one. Super great stuff!
💪💪💪💪💪💪💪💪💪💪💪💪
WOULD SOMEONE PLEASE! PLEASE RELEASE THE EPSTEIN FILES AND READ THE NAMES OUT LOUD! PLEASE!
PUHLEEZ!!!!!!!!
It’s about time someone stands up for the idiotic decisions created by this foolish administration!

Yes! So tired of fighting MAGA around here even on historical King County and Seattle forums. They need to go back to the hole they crawled out of.
I too am proud to live here.
Finally, some of the ones who supported all of this mess are seeing the light and pushing back. Great for the Seattle area!
