Inundate this Administration with an overwhelming number of lawsuits against ICE and every other illegal or unconstitutional thing that they are trying to get away with.

So many lawsuits - that they don't have the time; the people or the money to keep up with and handle.

Keep them busy having to deal with all sorts of legal matters.

I would go on to say that all lawyers that value our Constitution and Democracy - should volunteer to do 'pro bono' work to issues these lawsuits that would inundate them. I see this as one way to fight back. Sure they will be busy and won't be making any money - but they would be patriots that would provide a way of pressuring this administration and perhaps ultimately crack them and get them to back off.
