    I called the Governor and left them a message saying that if the concentration camp gets to rewrite their contract that I have rewritten my social contract with Washington state. It no longer applies to my body.

    ICE has made me a sovcit in spirit.

    And let’s not forget this comes shortly after this:

      Alaska should sue Washington state as a test case to get in front of the SCOTUS about the concentration camp situation.

      The state certainly wouldn’t have any reason to get involved.
