opening thoughts   
Jesse Wells Join ICE

Well, if you're lookin' for purpose in the current circus
If you're seekin' respect and attention
If you're in need of a gig that'll make you feel big
Come with me and put some folks in detention

Just last week was kind of tough, I put a kid in cuffs
I zip tied a lady to a van
We can sneak around town, hunt workin' folks down
I hear they got a great benefit plan

Join ICE, boy, ain't it nice?
Join ICE, take my advice
If you're lackin' control and authority
Come with me and hunt down minorities
Join ICE

Well, I failed the academy, the cops weren't havin' me
The Army didn't sound that fun
So I found me a paramilitary operation
That was keen to hand me a gun

I got picked on at school, I never felt that cool
There's a hole in my soul that just a-rages
All the ladies turned me down, and I felt like a clown
But will you look at me now, I'm puttin' folks in cages

At ICE, we're respectin' power
Join ICE, I hear they got great hours
There's a sign-on bonus of 50 grand
They're in need of you, needin' to feel like a man
Join ICE

(Look at him go!)

Well, if you're lookin' for purpose in the current circus
If you're seekin' respect and attention
If you're in need of a gig that'll make you feel big
Come with me and put some folks in detention

See I failed the academy, the cops weren't havin' me
The Army didn't sound that fun
So I found me a paramilitary operation
That was keen to hand me a gun

Join ICE, boy, ain't it nice?
Join ICE, take my advice
If you're lackin' control and authority
Come with me and hunt down minorities
Join ICE. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=61I4hlig78w
on Roberts court
Trump v. United States changed the balance of power among the branches of government—and rewrote the meaning of the Constitution.
In July 2024, by a 6-3 vote Roberts opinion broadly expanded the authority of the presidency by saying that a former president is immune from prosecution
Justice Sonia Sotomayor dissent warned about the consequences of such a broad expansion of presidential power. “The Court effectively creates a law-free zone around the President,” upsetting the status quo that had existed since the nation’s founding and giving blanket permission for wrongdoing, Sotomayor wrote. “Let the President violate the law, let him exploit the trappings of his office for personal gain, let him use his official power for evil ends,” she summarized. “In every use of official power, the President is now a king above the law.”
Roberts remarked in his opinion that the “tone of chilling doom” in her dissent was “wholly disproportionate” to what the ruling meant. But Sotomayor’s words proved prescient: the breadth of power that President Trump and his administration have asserted in the months since he was sworn in for his second term has made plain how boundlessly they interpret the reach of the presidency.
