The banality of evil: in Cambridge, Maryland, a woman had construction workers work on her roof for several days, and then called ICE on them to get them detained, and avoid paying $10,000 for the work.

Homeowner called ICE on migrants she hired, worker says
A video shared online showed agents arriving at the home in Cambridge, Maryland as workers wrapped up construction.

MAGA is always learning from their President's example.

@juliehuz I was basing it off the linked articles, where it was ascribed to be her motivation
@vrandecic In the AP and Newsweek pieces, ICE disputes the claim they were responding to a call - saying it was a "targeted enforcement action" (whatever that means). It seems likely they would lie to protect her even if she did make the call. Its raining all over Maryland today - sure would be a shame if her half-finished roof leaked. #Karma

what I don't understand, is she hasn't really gained anything from this - her roof (which I could see was clearly in bad state and I'm not even a roofer) is indeed half done - its not as if the feds will let the migrant workers finish the roof before they nick them!
She apparently also acknowledged that but threatened that if "more immigrants" turned up to finish the job she would call ICE on them too.
I suspect its motivated as much out of bigotry than merely not wanting to pay the workers.

@vfrmedia @vrandecic that's the part that makes me doubt the headline. You would have to be ridiculously stupid to call ICE before the roof is whole...but if so...Enjoy the rain all day and all night tonight when it will dip down into the low 30s. #Karma

I hope, there's special place in hell for people like this.🤬
@FandaSin
I honestly do not want to wait that long to want to see them get their due. But yeah, to hell with them.

@shansterable I didn't see it in the article when I was reading it
@vrandecic
Sorry. That wasn't meant to be directed at you. I scanned the article and couldn't find it either. I was peeved that the article didn't name her. -
