Lesa Tanner @elsietea.bsky.social · 09/02/2026Do you think the CHP should be hunting down people with suspected traffic violations and grabbing them off the street and throwing them into detention facilities? A traffic ticket and being undocumented are the same level of civil lawbreaking. Why are we tolerating this behavior from ICE? 261
