Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
- Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
- No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
That's all the rules!

I read that the reason this happens is that immigrants use their lawyers’ email when filling out immigration forms instead of using their own email.
If that's the case, why is the email addressed to him and not one of his client's names? How would you even know which one it's supposed to be going to?
Looking at the body and subject in the scan of the printout of the email indicates they didn't specify his name.
His name appears in the To: line of the header, but without the opportunity to examine the raw headers of the email, I would assume that his mail client replaced his email address with his name for display purposes.
While there is certainly more than enough incompetence, it seems clear that it falls short of actually targeting him.
Failing to provide the name of the person in the body of the email is incomptetence.
Fox included the disclaimer about contact email... but IMO the person who built the mail merge was incompetent and that will not prevent ICE from coming after Aldo.
It is a huge mess. How can someone write a letter that does not contain the addressee? Let alone a letter that is threatening you to run away or else.
It's easier to bulk send them this way. No need for a mail merge, just spam it out to everyone on your list. Efficiency!
This is not the happy timeline.
You're expecting competence from this administration?
Writing a letter is quite literally something you learn to do in second grade...knowing how to do that isn't remotely where the bar for competency is.
Not if cheeto is hiring.
I get your point, but YES we should expect competence. Don’t give up.
