The week's question
In December 2024, in the thread "Re: BRK: Why Not XOM?", BreckHutHigh asked the members: "What about the long road trips with kids?" This week it is put to everyone again. The button below opens the small thread re-asking it - read what others have said so far, then give your own answer as an ordinary reply.

The actual Inspector General has to go around to every single facility in the country every year. Notice the way this is written is to make the poor sap do it personally.

"No, H.R.2760 does not require the Inspector General (IG) to perform inspections personally. The bill mandates that the Inspector General of the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) conduct the inspections, which in practice means the OIG office's auditors, program analysts, and inspectors perform these duties as part of their official function"

Dope should intuitively understand his interpretation is wrong, and question it, but he doesn't

Since there's no way to guarantee a hearing in 2 days when you arrest, say, a ton of people at once, here's your flaming incentive for THOUSANDS of people to rush the border.

"An initial custody determination in immigration is when a Department of Homeland Security (DHS) or Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) officer decides whether an individual should be detained or released after being arrested. This first decision is based on factors like flight risk, national security, and public safety, and is formally recorded on ICE Form I-286, Notice of Custody Determination,. If the individual is not eligible for release or is not granted an alternative, they will remain in custody and can later request a bond redetermination hearing before an immigration judge."

Dope again doesn't understand how to read law, and uses that as a springboard into a RW fantasyland.

“(A) IN GENERAL.—An alien who seeks to challenge the initial custody determination under paragraph (1) shall be provided with the opportunity for a hearing before an immigration judge not later than 72 hours after the initial custody determination to determine whether the alien should be detained.

"Arguments that it is too short a period often center on due process concerns. Critics argue that 72 hours may not allow an alien, particularly one who has just been apprehended, sufficient time to find legal counsel, gather relevant documentation (such as proof of identity, community ties, or valid immigration claims), or prepare a meaningful case for release [1]. This perspective emphasizes that the right to a fair hearing requires adequate time for preparation, which 72 hours may limit [1]."

The judge can grant more time to prepare to the alien.

Not going to continue.
