Opinion | It’s tough to sue federal officers — but there is a path for victims of ICE’s abuse Lauren Bonds: Qualified immunity is a formidable barrier to most civil rights lawsuits, but the Federal Tort Claims Act is one potential remedy.

#victims of ICE #violence can #sue the #Trump #administration ---directly by filing a #FTCA suit. "

The #FTCA makes you go through a bunch of bureaucratic red tape before you can even potentially see the inside of a courthouse, and even then you won't get a jury trial, meaning your own peers won't get to determine how horrendous the government's actions were. This needs to change. Like NOW!

BREAKING! Supreme Court Issues 9-0 Unanimous Decision With Major Nationwide & 2A Implications!!! YouTube video by Armed Scholar

"Can we the #FBI go into the wrong house and arrest the wrong people and not get sued?"
No.
Lower courts ruled in favor of the FBI, but SCOTUS vacated, saying broad immunity isn't applicable.
DOJ is stalling reassessment at the 11th.
