May he be a chandelier–so that he hangs by day and burns by night.

Few have been as deserving as this man of the old yiddish curse, “Zolst zayn vi a henglomp - hengn baytog un brenen baynakht.”

This parallel long predates Israel itself, or even the holocaust. In the early 20th century, there are many letters in yiddish, and other public statements fun within the Jewish community, that were sent to yiddish newspapers criticizing zionism for using parallel language to “Hitlerism” and similar movements that were spreading across Europe.

Immigration judges aren’t judicial judges, they are what are called administrative judges and do fall under the executive branch. That said, there is a lot of administrative law and procedure that is certainly still getting fucked by Trump/maga.

This is fucked up, but also it’s fucked up that there is a single public policy ducked director for Israel AND the Jewish diaspora.

I think this would actually trigger real rioting and violence. And that would give the Trump the veneer of legality he needs for Republican support to enact martial law. And that would trigger more rioting and violence spreading beyond NY. It would be a catastrophically stupid move on Trump’s part. So probably by end of the month.

There are two different thoughts on how how to do this. Restructure federal tax so that it is paid to the state along with your state income and then the state simply withholds from the fed. The other is that states simply refuse to enforce any sort of federal collection or enforcement of unpaid taxes.
