Moving the lemm.ee State Level Doge community here and giving it a broader name.

The lemm.ee community was originally created to track the "DOGE task forces" which popped up across multiple states in the U.S. once Trump took office in 2025, but is meant to be a place for anyone, anywhere to share and discuss any corruption they notice happening at a local/community level.

Louisville Mayor Craig Greenberg (D) announced on Tuesday that the Kentucky city will begin complying with the Trump administration’s 48-hour immigration detainer requests and, in exchange, the federal government will drop Louisville from its “sanctuary city” list.

Under the new directive, the mayor said, the Louisville Metro Department of Corrections (LMDC) will notify the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) at least 48 hours before an inmate with an immigration detainer is scheduled to be released from custody.

The federal government’s 48-hour detainer request is “standard practice” for Kentucky and was followed in Louisville before 2017, when the local policy changed, Greenberg said,. He added that LMDC currently provides DHS with approximately 5-12 hours’ notice before an inmate with an immigration detainer is released.

"I have been assured by the U.S. Department of Justice that, if we reinstate the 48-hour detainers for inmates who’ve been arrested for crimes, Louisville will be taken off the federal sanctuary city list,” Greenberg said in remarks on Tuesday.

Well, as long as you've been assured. I think we can all agree, promises made by the DOJ under Pam Bondi are 100% reliable and trustworthy.
