corrections officer arrested

Gratien Milandou-Wamba thought he’d done everything right.

The 32-year-old said he fled from the Republic of the Congo after being tortured and threatened in prison over his connection to an opposition party. So, he decided to leave behind his home in Brazzaville, his family and his career as a firefighter.

“I was not living like a normal person,” Milandou-Wamba said. “I was hiding myself.”

He arrived in the United States in May 2023, got a tourist visa and started to apply for asylum. A few months later, he received a work permit and Social Security number.
So, Milandou-Wamba said he was frightened and confused when he was driving to work as a corrections officer at the Cumberland County Jail on the morning of April 19 and saw an unmarked police vehicle suddenly light up. He was pulled over and two officers in civilian clothing handcuffed him and put him in the back of their vehicle.

He was still wearing his uniform — pleated khaki slacks and a tie — when he was brought to an Immigration and Customs Enforcement processing center in Scarborough.

“The Trump administration has made it abundantly clear that it will stop at nothing to meet its insane deportation goals — even if it means sweeping up immigrants who have taken every step required to live and work here and continue to follow the law,” Pingree said in a written statement provided by her office. “Instead of going after the most dangerous people, ICE has chosen instead to terrorize our communities and sow fear among law-abiding residents who are simply trying to live, work, and care for their families.”

"standing next to a guy with tattoos" is a good enough reason for Trumplandia to send you to a slavery gulag

about 50 of the 278 known CECOT detainees sent by the US came to the US legally, around 75% of the class have no known criminal record anywhere

Among them was Pedro Luis Salazar-Cuervo, a 28-year-old from Venezuela with no known criminal record, who was accused by state police of being in the Venezuelan Tren de Aragua gang because they found a photo of him on a phone posing with another man with tattoos, also accused of being a gang member, according to his lawyers. By mid-March, he had been deported by federal immigration authorities to a maximum security prison in El Salvador, along with more than 230 others (https://www.texastribune.org/2025/05/30/trump-el-salvador-deportees-criminal-convictions-cecot-venezuela/) that President Donald Trump called “the worst of the worst.”

Salazar-Cuervo’s lawyers say Texas’ claim that he’s in a gang is “baseless” and that neither DPS nor state prosecutors have released any more evidence to prove any connection to Tren de Aragua. They want him sent back to the U.S. to face his state charges.

On Tuesday morning, a Texas judge agreed that he must be returned to stand trial in August for trespassing on private property, a misdemeanor punishable by up to a year in prison.

immigration is straightforwardly beneficial, socially and economically

The report does not answer the question of whether undocumented immigrants cost the country more than they contribute to it. But it found that undocumented immigrants in California are more likely to be working age and employed than native-born residents, with an estimated 72% working compared to 67% for U.S.-born residents.

About 1.5 million undocumented immigrants work in California, comprising 8% of the state’s workforce, the study estimated.

Researchers said undocumented workers generate 5% of the state’s overall economic activity through their labor, a number that rises to 9% after factoring in ripple effects of their spending and labor.

“We have been reliant on immigration as a source of population growth and driver of labor force growth for many years,” Raisz said. The report found that California would have lost 85,000 people last year if not for immigration. The state instead gained about 40,000 people.

“One thing I want to drive home is how embedded folks are in the state and communities,” Raisz said, pointing to the report finding that almost half of undocumented immigrants in California have been in the U.S. for more than 20 years.

The study found that almost 11% of all small businesses are owned by undocumented immigrants.

Undocumented immigrants also pay an estimated $10.6 billion in state and local taxes annually and almost $13 billion in federal taxes, the report stated, despite being excluded from most federal benefits.https://www.sfchronicle.com/california/article/mass-deportations-could-cost-california-20382255.php

immigration sweeps are bad for the economy

Trump has millions living in fear

Maria-Elena De Trinidad Young, an assistant professor of public health at UC Merced who co-authored the report, said that the economic costs of mass deportation don’t just come from the removal of individuals from the U.S. It also comes from absenteeism from schools and work and the loss in productivity due to fear after immigration raids on workplaces, she said.

That same chilling effect can apply to people going out to eat or heading downtown, Young said, thus reducing spending and economic activity.

“The term mass deportation leads people to think we’re going to see one big workplace raid,” she said. But, she said, “these economic hits would be the cumulative effect of lots of small enforcement actions… Overall, we stand to lose a lot because of increased enforcement even if we don’t see it immediately happening in our backyard right now.”

Of the dozens of workers detained during the raid, “at least two” had prior criminal records, according to the agency.

degrading US hospitals because ethnic cleansing is the order of the day

“If international medical graduates can’t start their medical residencies on time on July 1, the ramifications are so far-reaching that it is really unconscionable,” said Kimberly Pierce Burke, executive director of the Alliance of Independent Academic Medical Centers.”

Many foreign medical residents stay and build their careers in the U.S. Most go into primary care fields like internal medicine, family medicine and pediatrics, areas of shortage that American medical graduates tend to avoid…But an estimated 1,000 medical residents were not able to obtain visas

New foreign doctors are not taking residency positions away from American medical school graduates. Just the opposite: This year, there were about 40,000 residency positions offered through the national match system, but only 28,000 graduates of U.S. medical schools.https://www.nytimes.com/2025/06/18/health/medical-residents-travel-ban.html

"For 19-year-old Emerson Colindres, it was supposed to be a routine check-in with Immigration and Customs Enforcement. It turned out to be a trap. He never returned home.

Colindres, who came to the United States with his family more than a decade ago to escape the violence in their native Honduras, was detained by ICE on June 4, just days after the talented student and soccer player graduated from high school in Cincinnati. Colindres, whose teammates said was one of the greatest players they met on the field, dreamed of continuing his sports career and hoped to attend a university. He did not have a criminal record, according to the Butler County Sheriff’s Office."

agricultural production is time sensitive, driving off the pickers at harvest time tends to limit profitability and yield

it could impact wallets and dinner tables too

Zavala said he doesn't care "about that stuff," but knows "this is affecting the growers directly whether they are Democrat or Republican or whatever."

"These growers will lose a lot of money and are risking losing their farms (https://www.rawstory.com/tariffs-farmers/) because of a lack of labor," Zavala warned.

The workers who pick cherries in the area are typically migrants who came to the area from Mexico (https://www.rawstory.com/tag/mexico) in search of better wages, according to the report.

But Zavala estimated that orchards that typically have 100 or 120 workers picking cherries have found they only have 20 or 30 who come to work. Many said they'd heard ICE agents had set up checkpoints near the Oregon border, which "discouraged a lot of pickers from taking the risk," he said.

Wearing their Illinois National Guard uniforms, Axel and Andres Reyes arrived with their mother at a South Loop immigration office on Tuesday morning.

The men, 19 and 24, watched their mother, who was born in Mexico and has been in the U.S. for more than 24 years, enter the office where at least 10 people were detained by Immigration and Customs Enforcement (https://chicago.suntimes.com/immigration/2025/06/04/elected-officials-tried-to-stop-ice-from-making-arrests-in-the-south-loop) just two weeks ago in what federal agents called “executable final orders of removal.”
...
“We fear her being detained and us not being there,” Andres Reyes said of his mother, who is seeking citizenship and is in the country on a work permit. “We can’t really do anything about it or get involved in that, but we just always want to be with her.”

Ultimately, their mother was not detained. The brothers left with her around 1 p.m.

blast from the past, vindicated by contemporaneous results

Transportation accidentally released its internal memo to the defense

DOT accidentally filed their internal brief on the case

The Department of Transportation and its Justice Department lawyers are at odds over their ongoing legal effort to axe Manhattan’s congestion pricing pilot program (https://www.courthousenews.com/trump-administration-ramps-up-threats-against-nyc-congestion-pricing-program/) after federal attorneys accidentally docketed an internal memo outlining their concerns with the case.

Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy announced plans to kill the program (https://www.courthousenews.com/trump-administration-puts-nyc-traffic-toll-on-chopping-block/) in February, calling it a “slap in the face to working class Americans and small business owners." Lawyers at the Southern District of New York are representing Duffy and the Trump administration’s Department of Transportation after it was sued by the Manhattan Transit Authority over Duffy’s demand to do so.

But late Wednesday night, those Justice Department attorneys uploaded an internal letter to the public court docket in which they discussed how difficult it would be for Duffy to win the case.

Assistant U.S. Attorneys Dominika Tarczynska, David Farber and Christine Poscablo wrote that “there is considerable litigation risk” in defending Duffy’s decision, which they said was “contrary to law, pretextual, procedurally arbitrary and capricious, and violated due process.”

As it turns out, the 11-page letter (https://www.courthousenews.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/04/congestion-pricing-internal-memo-doj.pdf), addressed to Department of Transportation senior trial attorney Erin Hendrixson and dated April 11, was uploaded by mistake. The Justice Department lawyers asked the court on Thursday to seal the filing (https://www.courthousenews.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/04/doj-mistake-congestion-pricing-seal-request.pdf), which they say is privileged.

“Although the contents of the document have been made public in news reporting, the document was filed in error and should not be considered part of the court docket,” they wrote.

Trump's immigration dragnet is going to screw up the Olympics

This is chickenshit, there's no national security concern that's served by denying basketball players and trainers admission to the US.

Hard blow for the Lionesses of Senegalese basketball. With less than two months to go before the 2025 Women's Afrobasket scheduled to take place in Côte d'Ivoire (July 26 – August 3), the preparation of the national team is disrupted by a visa denial by the United States Embassy to a large part of the delegation.

According to the daily Record reviewed by Senego, five players as well as thirteen members of the technical, medical and administrative staff have not obtained permission to enter the United States, where an important phase of preparation was planned. In total, only two coaches and two players received the precious sesame — well below the number required to implement the initially planned preparatory program.

US citizen, detained for being a brown passenger in a car

“This is going to go one of two ways here. I need to see your ID — if you’re not the guy I’m looking for, you’re not the guy I’m looking for. But we need your ID," the ICE agent says in the video.

Lemus said he demanded the agents' name and badge number, but they refused to provide any identifying information, claiming they were "not authorized" to do so.

"I told them that I'm not authorized to give my ID then," Lemus said.

An ICE agent threatened him again.

"If we don’t get your ID we are going to need to figure out another way to ID you and that may not work out well for you," the agent said.
Lemus was then placed in handcuffs for refusing to provide identification to the ICE agents. He said he was hesitant to cooperate because he hadn't committed any crimes, and he knew the federal agents were not local police, NBC 4 reports (https://www.nbcnewyork.com/long-island/video-long-island-man-driving-to-work-handcuffed-by-ice-despite-being-citizen/6301068/).

https://static.independent.co.uk/2025/06/13/18/43/Screenshot-2025-06-13-at-1-15-00-PM.png

"I didn't want to get my ID because as soon as I saw how they were dressed, I knew they weren't police officers. I didn't commit a crime and wasn't driving," he said.

The ICE agents allegedly left Lemus in cuffs for 20-25 minutes, and confiscated his phone to prevent him from filming them. They eventually found his ID in his pockets.

"It was heartbreaking … it felt like my rights were just out the window," Lemus said.

Lemus' attorney is calling ICE's alleged harassment a breach of his client's federal civil rights.

"This is not America. This is not how we as Americans should have to live. This is not how this young man, as a young Hispanic man going to work at 7:30 in the morning, needs to be greeted at the beginning of his day," attorney Fred Brewington said.

The attorney said ICE can't just "randomly, on a hunch, stop people," calling it "contrary to the Constitution."

New York State Assemblyman Philip Ramo, a former police detective, also weighed in and demanded an investigation. He labelled the incident as racial profiling.

Lemus and his attorney are calling for a full investigation by the U.S. Department of Justice. They have not filed a lawsuit at this time.

The incident left Lemus fearful about future potential encounters with federal agents based on nothing more than his ethnicity.

“It felt like I lost all rights when they pulled me over," he said. "I felt like I had nothing anymore, Felt like they stripped my rights, I was honestly shocked."

Colindres, who came to the United States with his family more than a decade ago to escape the violence in their native Honduras, was detained by ICE on June 4, just days after the talented student and soccer player graduated from high school in Cincinnati. Colindres, whose teammates said was one of the greatest players they met on the field, dreamed of continuing his sports career and hoped to attend a university. He did not have a criminal record, according to the Butler County Sheriff’s Office.

In the span of two weeks, Colindres went from celebrating his graduation to being detained by ICE to then being deported to a country where he has not lived since he was 8 years old.

He is not the only law-abiding high school student who has been targeted by ICE. Immigration enforcement (https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/trump-administration/trump-faces-criticism-broad-mass-deportation-push-two-different-angles-rcna210460) around the country has also swept up students (https://www.nbcnews.com/news/latino/nyc-high-school-student-detained-ice-scheduled-court-appearance-rcna209458) in New York City (https://www.nbcnewyork.com/queens/queens-high-school-student-detained-ice-immigration-appointment/6293461/), as well as in Milford, Massachusetts (https://www.nbcnews.com/news/latino/ice-arrest-high-school-milford-massachusetts-immigration-rcna210324).

“Sadly, he’s not the only one. I think there are a lot of Emersons in the same situation right now,” Bryan Williams, Colindres’ coach at the Cincy Galaxy soccer club, said ahead of the young man’s deportation. “They’re all the same story, someone who was here doing everything they were asked, trying to make a better life for themselves and their family, and now they’re being detained somewhere.”

Worth noting that back in the 1920s many localities were filled with mask wearing vigilantes, many of whom were also police officers, who sought to rid the nation of foreign “contaminants.” That group was the Klan and they targeted Catholics, Jews, Black people, and Mexicans.

But on World Refugee Day, (https://www.unhcr.org/us/get-involved/take-action/world-refugee-day) masked immigration agents weren’t leaning against the off-white walls, waiting to grab people. They scattered Friday after seeing a clergy delegation led by Bishop-elect Michael Pham (https://sdcatholic.org/bishop-pham/).

“Like the story of Moses and Exodus, the Red Sea parted,” said observer Scott Reid of the immigrant-aiding San Diego Organizing Project. (https://sdop.net/)

Said another observer: “We’ve never seen the hallways cleared out so quickly.”

The result: Nobody was detained as immigration lawyers said would happen.

Angelenos got solidarity for the lives interrupted and threatened by Trump's immigration raids

Street vendors like Maritza have stopped working or gone into hiding (https://la.eater.com/restaurant-news/285278/los-angeles-ice-raid-street-food-vendors-taqueros-taco-stands-trucks-hiding) since immigration raids began June 6 (https://apnews.com/article/immigration-raids-los-angeles-f8c4160e32be0ff77c5d4bf0ccef98cc?utm_source=chatgp t.com), disrupting part of the city’s 50,000-person vending workforce and prompting grassroots efforts to provide emergency financial support.

Los Angeles street vendors generate an estimated $504 million in economic activity, according to the Los Angeles Street Vending Coalition (https://san.com/cc/some-la-migrant-street-vendors-being-paid-to-stay-at-home/#:~:text=LA%20street%20vendors,into%20immigration% 20or%20citizenship%20status.). About 10,000 of those vendors sell food, and the majority are Latinx women, many of them seniors, according to a 2019 analysis by Waging Nonviolence (https://wagingnonviolence.org/2019/01/street-vending-legal-los-angeles-after-decade-organizing/).

In response to the financial impact (https://www.reuters.com/world/us/immigration-raids-los-angeles-hit-small-business-owners-its-worse-than-covid-2025-06-17/) this is having on vendors and their families, Angelenos are “buying out” street vendors in an act of solidarity. The response ranges from individuals supporting their local vendor (https://www.instagram.com/p/DK_HKCfR2gD/?hl=en) to neighborhood-level efforts to raise and distribute mutual aid, and a citywide fundraising effort (https://www.gofundme.com/f/support-street-vendors-impacted-by-ice-raids) by the LA Street Vendor Campaign. Combined, these efforts have raised at least $110,000.

Lol, elections. keep hanging on to that dream, while the revolution is in full swing.

Herein lies the difference between the National Socialist Revolution and other revolutions, with the exception of the Fascist Revolution in Italy. The National Socialist Revolution was almost entirely a bloodless proceeding. When the party took over power in Germany, after overthrowing the very formidable obstacles that had stood in its way, it did so without causing any damage whatsoever to property. I can say with a certain amount of pride that this was the first revolution in which not even a window-pane was broken.

...
This absence of bloodshed and destruction was made possible solely because we had adopted a principle which not only guided our conduct in the past but which we shall also never forget in the future. This principle was that the purpose of a revolution, or of any general change in the condition of public affairs, cannot be to produce chaos but only to replace what is bad by substituting something better. In such cases, however, something better must be ready at hand. On the 30th. of January four years ago, when the venerable President of the Reich sent for me and entrusted me with the task of forming a new Cabinet, we had already come through a strenuous struggle in our efforts to obtain supreme political control over the State. All the means employed in carrying on that struggle were strictly within the law as it then stood and the protagonists in the fight were the National Socialists. Before the new State could be actually established and promulgated, the idea of it and the model for its organization had already existed within the framework of our party. All the fundamental principles on which the new Reich was to be constructed were the principles and ideas already embodied in the National Socialist Party.

As a result of the constitutional struggle to win over our German fellow-countrymen to our side the party had established its predominance in the Reichstag and for a whole year before it actually assumed power it already had the right to demand this power for itself, even according to the principles of the parliamentary-democratic system. But it was essential for the National Socialist Revolution that this party should put forward demands which of themselves would involve a real revolutionary change in the principles and institutions of government hitherto in force.

When certain individuals who were blind to the actual state of affairs thought that they could refuse to submit to the practical application of the principles of the movement which had been entrusted with the government of the Reich, then, but not until then, the party used an iron hand to make these illegal disturbers of the peace bend their stubborn necks before the laws of the new National Socialist Reich and Government.

With this act the National Socialist Revolution came to an end. For as soon as the party had taken over power, and this new condition of affairs was consolidated, I looked upon it as a matter of course that the Revolution should be transformed into an evolution.

The new development which now set in, however, meant that there had to be a new orientation not merely of our ideas but also in regard to the practical policy which we had to carry out. Even today certain individuals who have fallen in the march of events refuse to adapt themselves to this change. They cannot understand it because it is beyond their mental horizon or outside the sphere of their egotistic interests. Our National Socialist teaching has undoubtedly a revolutionizing effect in many spheres of life and has interfered and acted under the revolutionary impulse.

The main plank in the National Socialist program is to abolish the liberalistic concept of the individual and the Marxist concept of humanity and to substitute therefore the folk community, rooted in the soil and bound together by the bond of its common blood. A very simple statement; but it involves a principle that has tremendous consequences.

Migrants Under a System Where They Assume 'Responsibility' For Them

President Donald Trump said on Friday that farmers may be able to keep employing undocumented migrant workers without fearing enforcement raids under a system in which they would take "responsibility" for them.

"We're looking at doing something where in the case of good, reputable farmers, they can take responsibility for the people that they hire, and let them have responsibility, because we can't put the farms out of business, and at the same time, we don't want to hurt people that aren't criminals," Trump told press on Friday.

It was not immediately clear how the system would work, and is the latest of several changes of tune regarding the matter.

Trump suggested last week that migrants working in industries like farming would be exempted from enforcement raids given the disproportionate impact that enforcement operations could have in the economy and the industry.

This guy won his lawsuit

Even in normal times, the US ends up deporting US citizens; how much greater the danger now

Due process is needed to make sure Americans aren't detained and deported

A Florida man is suing the top cop in the Florida Keys, claiming the sheriff wrongly arrested him on a federal immigration hold.

Peter Sean Brown said he was three days away from being deported to Jamaica, even though he was born in Philadelphia.

He blames Monroe County Sheriff Rick Ramsay.[

“It was a very powerless situation,” Brown said outside the federal courthouse in downtown Miami. “As a citizen, you don’t think it is really possible, because that’s everything against what we are raised to believe that our country stands for."

The saga dates back to 2018 (https://www.nbcnews.com/news/us-news/american-born-citizen-sues-sheriff-after-he-was-nearly-deported-n943486) when Brown, who was on probation from a previous arrest, failed a drug test and reported to the Monroe County Jail on a probation violation. Brown assumed he would be quickly release, but was told by the Monroe County Sheriff's Office that he was going remain jailed after the office received an immigration detainer for him from U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement.

Brown learned he would be deported to Jamaica, a country he visited once on a cruise. Brown repeatedly asserted he was a U.S. citizen, born in Philadelphia and raised in New Jersey, and claimed they had the "wrong guy" — claims that were ignored by jail officers.

A 19-page complaint against Monroe County jailers accuse staffers of mocking him, telling him in a Jamaican accent that "everything was gonna be alright." It also claims officer sang him the theme song to the TV show "The Fresh Prince of Belair" — which includes the lyrics "West Philadelphia born and raised." The complaint alleges officers told Brown that they didn't care about what evidence he had to prove his citizenship because if ICE wanted to deport him, "they would oblige."

court ruled MCSO violated Ramsay's 4th Amendment rights

Ramsay’s attorney explained that local law enforcement agencies only need three immigration documents, including a warrant and a removal order, to hold an inmate on an ICE detainer.

“When you have those three things present….there is no law that requires you to investigate further,” attorney Andrew Jolly told the judge.

Jolly, who is representing Sheriff Ramsay, told the judge ICE had bad information and the sheriff had nothing to do with it.

Brown’s lawyer argued the sheriff didn’t take even one step to look into the misidentification, and holding him for ICE was a violation of the U.S. Constitution’s Fourth Amendment, protecting against unreasonable searches and seizures.

Brown said the third ICE agent he came in contact with listened to his story and started the ball rolling on clearing up the misidentification.

The matter came to a speedy end when a picture of Brown’s birth certificate was sent to ICE officials.

“I would never have thought that I was going to be three days from deportation to an area that I went to on a cruise once,” Brown said.

still not a fan, but respect to the Dodgers

The events that led to the Dodgers pledging money to its immigrant fans started a few hours before a game between the Dodgers and the San Diego Padres when a line of black SUVS and white vans attempted to enter the stadium parking lot. The people in the vehicles were masked, and they carried neither badges nor warrants. Photos were flying around social media as people wondered if the Dodgers were allowing an armed, warrantless immigration checkpoint inside and outside the stadium. But Dodgers security, on orders from up high, would not allow them into the stadium grounds. As the extra-legal army that is ICE searched for another place to set up, dozens of people showed up on a tweet’s notice to protest and film them. The feds scurried off, to fight (and again lose) another battle—this time in public relations.

Locals praised the Dodgers when the team announced on social media that it had realized who actually buys their expensive tickets and sent Trump’s attack dogs on their way.

ICE and DHS, in contrast, have been snippy and defensive since they were shown the door and initially, and laughably, just posted tersely, “False. We were never there.” Then they admitted that Customs and Border Patrol were there as photos and videos flooded social media. Emily Phillips of an Echo Park Rapid Response network reported that the Feds said that they needed the stadium to process detainees since doing so out in the open at Home Depot would be “too dangerous.” It should frighten as well as offend everyone that such a cowardly, frightened group gets to be masked and armed and arrest people without warrant.

“This is not immigration enforcement. This is state-sanctioned intimidation,” said Flores. “I am calling for the immediate cessation of these raids and for the Huntington Park Police Department to begin verifying the identities and authority of any individuals conducting such operations within city limits.”

The statement shared that the mayor formally directed the police department to enforce laws concerning unmarked vehicles, visible license plates and required agency identification. “He is urging law enforcement to investigate and intervene in any unauthorized operations that place public safety or civil liberties at risk,” continued the message.

“We cannot allow Wild West-style bounty hunter tactics to unfold unchecked on our streets,” said Mayor Flores. “Our residents deserve to know who is operating in their neighborhoods and under what authority. Allowing unidentified and unverified actors to engage in forceful detentions is not only reckless—it is dangerous and corrosive to the rule of law.”

Masked goons beat and kidnap landscaper, father to three US Marines

In a graphic video that has since gone viral on social media, about seven or more masked men wearing U.S. Border Patrol vests are seen violently detaining a Santa Ana father before forcing him into the back of an unmarked car on Saturday.
The violent incident sparked protests in the following hours, and an online fundraiser was started through GoFundMe, where family members identified the victim as Narciso Barranco, a father to three sons who are all U.S. Marines.

One of his sons, 25-year-old Alejandro Barranco, told KTLA that his father was pepper-sprayed in addition to repeatedly being punched in the face during his detention. According to Alejandro, Narciso was picked up by alleged federal immigration officers while he was working as a landscaper at the IHOP on Edinger Avenue and Ritchey Street.

it's generally illegal for US agencies to spend money that was not appropriated

President Trump’s immigration crackdown is burning through cash so quickly that the agency charged with arresting, detaining and removing unauthorized immigrants could run out of money next month.
Why it matters: Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) is already $1 billionover budget by one estimate, with more than three months left in the fiscal year. That’s alarmed lawmakers in both parties — and raised the possibility of Trump clawing funds from agencies to feed ICE.

Lawmakers say ICE’s parent agency, the Department of Homeland Security (DHS), is at risk of violating U.S. law if it continues to spend at its current pace.
That’s added urgency to calls for Congress to pass Trump’s “Big Beautiful Bill,” which could direct an extra $75 billion (https://immigrationforum.org/article/one-big-beautiful-bill-act-immigration-provisions/) or so to ICE over the next five years.
It’s also led some lawmakers to accuse DHS and ICE of wasting money. “Trump’s DHS is spending like drunken sailors,” said Sen. Chris Murphy (D-Conn.), the top Democrat on the DHS appropriations subcommittee.

Zoom in: ICE’s funding crisis is being fueled by Trump’s team demanding that agents arrest 3,000 immigrants a day (https://www.axios.com/2025/05/28/immigration-ice-deportations-stephen-miller) — an unprecedented pace ICE is still trying to reach.

Army Sgt. Ayssac Correa had just started his day at the 103rd Quartermaster Company outside of Houston on the morning of March 13 when he got a phone call from his sister-in-law.

She worked at the same company as Correa’s wife and had just pulled into the parking lot to see three ICE agents handcuffing her.

ICE deports US citizens in normal times, how much the more now that due process is so streamlined

A recent report from the Government Accountability Office (GAO) confirms what immigrant advocates have long warned: ICE has deported American citizens.

Between 2015 and 2020, ICE deported at least 70 people who were U.S. citizens, according to the GAO (https://www.gao.gov/products/gao-21-487). That’s not just a bureaucratic mistake — it’s a constitutional violation.

U.S. citizens cannot be deported under civil immigration law. Yet GAO found that ICE and Customs and Border Protection (CBP) lack the records to even know how many people they may have deported in error.

In total, the watchdog found that ICE arrested 674 potential U.S. citizens, detained 121, and deported 70 (https://www.gao.gov/products/gao-21-487)— all of whom may have been legally untouchable by immigration enforcement.

And the actual number could be much higher.

“ICE does not know the extent to which its officers are taking enforcement actions against individuals who could be U.S. citizens,” the GAO concluded (https://www.gao.gov/products/gao-21-487).

Erez Reuveni blows the whistle on Emil Bove, who will be standing for a federal judgeship

He says Bove told subordinates he was willing to defy court orders and stonewall judges

Events have pretty much borne him out on that

A senior Justice Department official, Emil Bove III, told subordinates he was willing to ignore court orders in order to fulfill the president’s aggressive deportation campaign, according to a whistle-blower complaint by a department lawyer who has since been fired.

The account by the dismissed lawyer, Erez Reuveni, paints a disturbing portrait of his final three weeks on the front lines of the Trump administration’s legal efforts to ship immigrants overseas, often with little notice or recourse. In Mr. Reuveni’s telling, Mr. Bove used an expletive as he discussed disregarding court orders, and other top law enforcement officials showed themselves ready to stonewall judges or lie to them to get their way.

Mr. Reuveni’s account, which was reviewed by The New York Times (https://static01.nyt.com/newsgraphics/documenttools/e285ec96adf8d443/5868d536-full.pdf), was filed to lawmakers and the Justice Department inspector general on Tuesday, just one day before Mr. Bove is scheduled to testify before the Senate Judiciary Committee for a nomination to a federal appeals court. Mr. Reuveni was a career lawyer at the Justice Department for nearly 15 years until April, when he appeared in a federal court in Maryland and expressed concern that the administration had mistakenly deported a migrant to a megaprison in El Salvador. Mr. Reuveni was put on administrative leave a day later and ultimately fired.

Reuveni is fighting back against a criminal regime

Guys like Bove have to be stopped

In March and early April, the filing states, Mr. Reuveni “became aware of the plans of D.O.J. leadership to resist court orders that would impede potentially illegal efforts to deport noncitizens, and further became aware of the details to execute those plans.”

Top officials at the Justice Department and the White House sought to defy federal court orders “through lack of candor, deliberate delay and disinformation,” his account states.

“Discouraging clients from engaging in illegal conduct is an important part of the role of a lawyer,” the account says. “Mr. Reuveni tried to do so and was thwarted, threatened, fired and publicly disparaged for both doing his job and telling the truth to the court.”

06-24-2025, 09:01 AM

A pivotal meeting occurred on March 14, when Mr. Bove, a senior official in the deputy attorney general’s office, spoke bluntly about the administration’s plans. He informed his subordinates that Mr. Trump would soon invoke the Alien Enemies Act in order to rapidly fly a group of immigrants out of the country that weekend. Two other officials in that office, James McHenry and Paul Perkins, were in attendance, as well as Mr. Reuveni’s supervisors, Drew Ensign and August Flentje, according to the whistle-blower document.

Mr. Bove “stressed to all in attendance that the planes needed to take off no matter what,” according to Mr. Reuveni’s account. Mr. Bove then broached “the possibility that a court order would enjoin those removals before they could be effectuated.”

“Bove stated that D.O.J. would need to consider telling the courts ‘fuck you’ and ignore any such order,” according to the account.

06-24-2025, 09:07 AM

lie for power, that's the essence of Trumpism

Mr. Reuveni’s account asserts that a third illegal order came in the case of Kilmar Armando Abrego Garcia, the mistakenly deported immigrant in Maryland who was sent to El Salvador on one of the March 15 flights despite a judge’s prior ruling that he should not be sent there.

At a court hearing, Mr. Reuveni made headlines when he agreed with an earlier admission from the administration that Mr. Abrego Garcia’s removal had been a mistake.

In a phone call afterward, Mr. Ensign, stating that his questions “were prompted by the White House,” asked Mr. Reuveni why he had not argued in court that Mr. Abrego Garcia was a terrorist, according to the account.

Mr. Reuveni replied that no evidence had been found to support such a claim, nor did any of the department’s prior court briefs make that assertion. He added that declaring someone a terrorist did not suddenly nullify whether someone was entitled to due process.The next day, Mr. Reuveni was told he should sign an appeal brief making the terrorism claim against Mr. Abrego Garcia.

Mr. Reuveni’s lawyers say he resisted, arguing that the law does not allow advocates to make new factual claims, which he saw as “contrary to law, frivolous, and untrue.”
That led to a final standoff with his supervisor, Mr. Flentje, who told him “he should sign the brief and that he had signed up for the responsibility to do so,” the account states.
Mr. Reuveni responded, “I didn’t sign up to lie.”

He was placed on administrative leave hours later, and fired the next week.

"For much of his twenties and thirties, Park struggled with a crack cocaine addiction. An arrest for drug possession and a subsequent failure to appear in court led to charges that ultimately derailed his chances of naturalization or relief from deportation. “I just couldn't stay clean,” he admitted. “So finally, when the judge told me, ‘Don't come back into my court with the dirty urine,’ which I knew I would, I got scared and I jumped bail.” Although the U.S. offers expedited naturalization for veterans, Park was discharged before completing the required 12 months of service, and the Panama invasion was not officially recognized as a period of hostility, leaving him ineligible."

the description fits

ICE's dastardly crimes are aggravated by committing them under color of law

This country has a unique history with the particular terror of masked attackers. The Ku Klux Klan, the violent white supremacist organization terrorized Black people in the American South in the first years after the end of the Civil War and through much of the 20th century. So rampant was Klan violence in the years immediately after the Civil War, that it threatened to derail the promise of the 14th Amendment, which was ratified in 1868 and was designed to ensure that Black people would equal citizens in post-Civil War America.

In the first decade after the end of the Civil War, the violence of the Klan grew to such an alarming level that President Grant encouraged Congress to address the growing problem by passing a statute that would give federal authorities the ability to prosecute those interfering with the constitutional rights of Black people. (https://sherrilyn.substack.com/p/masked-terror?r=1sqa3e&utm_medium=ios&triedRedirect=true#_edn3)

In response Congress enacted the Enforcement Acts of 1870 and 1871,[iv] (https://sherrilyn.substack.com/p/masked-terror?r=1sqa3e&utm_medium=ios&triedRedirect=true#_edn4) which gave the federal government authority to prosecute crimes committed by the Klan. For this reason, the Enforcement Acts are colloquially referred to as the “Ku Klux Klan Acts.” Among its other protections designed to ensure access to voting for Black people, the Enforcement Act of 1870 made it a felony when:

…two or more persons to band or conspire together, [I]or go in disguise upon the public highway, or the premises of another, with intent to ….injure, press, threaten or intimidate any citizen with intent to prevent or hinder his free exercise and enjoyment of any right or privilege granted or secured to him by the Constitution or laws of the United States.

Attorneys with the U.S. Department of Justice admitted to deporting Jordin Melgar-Salmeron, a Salvadoran immigrant, in early May, citing "a confluence of administrative errors," including a breakdown in communications, Law&Crime previously reported (https://lawandcrime.com/high-profile/confluence-of-administrative-errors-trump-administration-admits-to-improperly-deporting-another-man/).

Somewhat aberrational, the case has been before the Second Circuit Court of Appeals (https://lawandcrime.com/tag/second-circuit/) for roughly two years – having exhausted relevant lower court proceedings for quite some time. All of the latest action has been on a docket before the same panel since April.

Now, that panel is ordering the government to bring the man back to the country so that his longstanding case can revert to the status quo.

"Accordingly, upon due consideration, the Government is hereby ordered to facilitate the return of Petitioner to the United States as soon as possible to 'ensure that his case is handled as it would have been had he not been improperly sent to El Salvador,'" the two-page order (https://www.documentcloud.org/documents/25982682-melgar-salmeron-order-2cca/) reads.

American citizens detained by ICE spend an average of 180 days in detention

If Immigration and Customs Enforcement (https://nymag.com/intelligencer/article/what-we-know-about-the-nyc-student-detained-by-ice.html) arrests you for an immigration-related offense, and you tell the agency you are a citizen, it might not release you. Citizenship isn’t something that you wear on your body. Maybe you pull an ID, a passport, or even a birth certificate, but agents frequently assume these are fake. In that case, you will be taken to a detention center run by a private prison company. You can tell the guards there that you’re a citizen, but they’ll likely respond with some version of “tell it to the judge.” Your immigration-court appearance could be weeks, or even months, away. You will wait behind bars. There’s no right to counsel in immigration court — if you can’t afford a lawyer, you’ll have to represent yourself. When you finally see the inside of a courtroom, it could be what ICE calls a “mass removal” hearing with dozens of other defendants. You won’t have a chance to talk to a judge.

The U.S. citizens I’ve spoken to who have spent time in immigration jail describe fighting against a feeling of resignation — not just the temptation to give up on their legal case, but to give up on their belief that they are actually a citizen. Their sense of citizenship, with all its protections, dematerializes as soon as the government begins insisting they were in the country illegally. Peter Brown, a Philadelphia-born resident who spent three weeks in a local jail after ICE targeted him for deportation in 2019, told me he got whiplash: One day he was a free citizen, the next the government could keep him behind bars indefinitely. In his case, the agency’s error was simple — it had confused him with another Peter Brown, a Jamaican fugitive. In jail, he was staring down a deportation to a country he had only visited once, for a day trip on a cruise. “I really went into a state of panic,” Brown says. He repeated to his jailers that he was a citizen, and he offered to provide his birth certificate. He signed every document with, “Peter Sean Brown, United States Citizen.” It didn’t make a difference. Brown says that the last guard he saw before he was placed into the transport van ahead of deportation to Jamaica smirked at him and said, in a fake Jamaican accent, “Yeah, whatever, mon, everything’s gonna be all right.” After he was transferred to a detention center in Miami, an agent finally agreed to look at his birth certificate, and ICE released him.

Unlike police, ICE agents almost never have to testify in court. In Watson’s case, the officers who made the mistakes that kept him in jail remained anonymous in all court documents; even the judges who incorrectly ruled that Watson should be deported remained anonymous, thanks to a Department of Justice arrangement that keeps immigration proceedings opaque. While the law is clear — ICE is not to arrest U.S. citizens — agents have such significant discretion, and such little accountability, that, in practice, the first opportunity a citizen will have to meaningfully contest their arrest is at their first court appearance. And that can take a while.

“When U.S. citizens sue for damages for wrongful imprisonment, and the government pays millions of dollars, no one gets fired; no ICE agents lose salaries,” says Jacqueline Stevens, a professor of political science at Northwestern University and director of the school’s Deportation Research Clinic. “It’s the U.S. taxpayers who are on the hook when ICE screws up.”

In 2017, Stevens began studying cases like Watson’s, combing through court records for instances of ICE detainees being released after the government acknowledged they were citizens. She connected with dozens, including many who had been deported before the government could correct its error, and who got in touch with her from other countries. “This is happening all the time,” she says. In her study, she found that, on average, U.S. citizens detained by ICE spent 180 days behind bars.

Maryland stands up for due process

The federal government may not remove immigrants with cases pending in Maryland after they file a petition for writ of habeas corpus (https://thedailyrecord.com/tag/habeas-corpus/) under a standing order issued Wednesday.

The order preventing deportations (https://www.mdd.uscourts.gov/sites/mdd/files/2025-01.pdf), signed by Maryland District Court Chief Judge George Russell III, applies until 4 p.m. two business days after the petition is filed. It comes as the Trump administration has removed hundreds of people without due process, violated court orders in immigration cases, and floated the idea of suspending habeas corpus.

The order is intended to preserve the court’s jurisdiction over immigration cases and guarantee due process. It applies only to cases in Maryland, not nationwide.

It states that after an “alien detainee” files a petition for writ of habeas corpus, “the Government/Respondents, including all those acting for them or on their behalf, are ENJOINED and RESTRAINED from removing Petitioners in such cases from the continental United States or altering their legal status.”

Since January, these 10 facilities have collectively placed nearly 400 emergency calls. Nearly 50 of those have involved potential cardiac episodes, 26 referenced seizures, and 17 reported head injuries. Seven calls described suicide attempts or self-harm, including overdoses and hangings. Six others involved allegations of sexual abuse—including at least one case logged as “staff on detainee.”https://www.wired.com/story/ice-detention-center-911-emergencies/

On April 28, a nurse at the Aurora ICE Processing Center near Denver called 911. A woman in custody, four months pregnant, had arrived at the facility’s medical unit, bleeding and in pain. As the staff rushed to get vitals, the dispatcher rattled off questions: How old was she? Was the pregnancy high risk? The nurse hesitated: “She just came to us three days ago.”

On 911 audio obtained by WIRED, the dispatcher’s voice cuts in:

“Is there any sign of life?”
“Have we heard a heartbeat?”
“Does she feel any kicking?”

“We don’t have the equipment to do that,” the nurse replies.

Throughout 2024, Stewart logged a steady stream of medical emergencies and violent episodes, from seizures and head injuries to suicide attempts and abdominal pain. But medical emergencies at Stewart have increased in both volume and severity in the first four months of 2025 alone, compared to the same time last year. Though Stewart’s population is only roughly 10 percent larger now, serious medical emergencies—seizures, head traumas, and suspected heart issues—have more than tripled.

At least one serious injury reported this year was self-inflicted: an inmate “beating his head against the wall.” Jesús Molina-Veya, a Stewart detainee, is also confirmed to have died by suicide on June 7.

Stewart has reported more in-custody deaths since 2017 than any other facility nationwide.

When asked about overcrowding at Stewart, Todd told WIRED, “Everyone in our care is offered a bed.” But three attorneys who regularly visit the facility said their clients have consistently described sleeping on floors or in plastic containers fitted with thin mats. Three relatives of current and former detainees corroborated those accounts.

CoreCivic did not respond when asked how it defines a “bed.”

Meredyth Yoon, litigation director at Asian Americans Advancing Justice – Atlanta, says her office has documented cases of pregnant people suffering miscarriages in custody after being denied proper medical attention. “We know specific instances where people have made repeated medical requests for weeks and not been seen,” she says. In other cases, she adds, pregnant detainees have gone months without any prenatal care.

“When you hear about someone bleeding for days without being seen, locked alone in a room with no medical attention, it’s deeply disturbing,” she says. "But it's not out of line with the types of things that we see at Stewart.”

One of the facilities is the Adelanto ICE Processing Center in California, which reopened early this year (https://www.latimes.com/california/story/2025-01-29/adelanto-immigration-facility-to-resume-housing-migrants) after years of relative dormancy due to reports of unsafe conditions. Within its first three months back in operation, the facility generated at least 13 emergency calls—including at least two involving reported sexual assaults or threats of sexual assaults in March and April.

At the South Texas ICE Processing Center, another GEO-run facility, the pattern continues. One 911 dispatch from March states simply: “Staff on detainee.” Since January, at least three other emergency calls have referenced sexual abuse.

Canadian citizen dies while in U.S. ICE custody in Florida

A Canadian citizen and U.S. permanent resident has died while in custody of U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement in Florida and awaiting removal from the United States, the agency says.

The Canadian, identified as 49-year-old Johnny Noviello, was found unresponsive Monday at the Federal Detention Center in Miami and was attended to by medical staff, but was pronounced dead the same day, ICE said in a statement Wednesday.

The cause of death remains under investigation.

Global News has reached out to Global Affairs Canada for comment and more information. ICE said it provided notification of Noviello’s death to the Canadian consulate by telephone.

ICE said that after Noviello was found unresponsive, medical staff “immediately” performed CPR and used an electronic defibrillator to try and revive him, before calling 911. He was pronounced dead by the Miami Fire Rescue Department at 1:36 p.m. local time, less than an hour after he was found at 12:54 p.m.

...

ICE noted Noviello had been a lawful permanent resident of the U.S. since 1991, after entering the country through legal visa status in 1988. However, it also said he was facing removal for being convicted of drug charges “as a non-immigrant overstay.”

6 year old with leukemia detained, medical care denied in Dilley, TX

A Honduran mother and her two children — ages 6 and 9 — sued the Trump administration over their arrest at Los Angeles Immigration Court, the first lawsuit challenging the arrests of children under a new ICE directive targeting courthouses.
The mother brought her two children to the immigration court on May 29 expecting to continue to make a case for asylum after fleeing Honduras because of threats of violence. But like many other immigrants across the country, they were surprised to see their case quickly dismissed as ICE agents waited for them to step out of the courthouse into the hallway.

"There were men waiting for them in civilian clothing. The [ICE agents] detained the family for many hours, and it was a terrifying time for the two children and their mother," said Elora Mukherjee, director of the Immigrant Rights Clinic at Columbia Law School.

"They were crying in fear. One of the agents at one point lifted up his shirt, which displayed the gun that he was carrying," Mukherjee said. "The 6-year-old boy was terrified to see the gun. He urinated on himself and wet all his clothing. No one offered him a change of clothing for many hours."

The family was then transported to the Dilley Immigration Processing Center in Texas, where they have been detained for several weeks.

The 6-year-old boy has been diagnosed with leukemia and has missed a medical appointment to be treated for worsening symptoms, according to the lawsuit filed Tuesday in federal court in San Antonio by the Immigrant Rights Clinic and The Texas Civil Rights Project.

A US citizen was arrested during an immigration raid in downtown Los Angeles (https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/los-angeles) this week in what her family described as a “kidnapping” by federal immigration agents.

Andrea Velez, 32, had just been dropped off at work by her mother and sister, the pair said, when they saw agents grab her.

“My mom looked at the rear mirror and she saw how my sister was attacked from the back,” Estrella Rosas told ABC7 (https://abc7.com/post/woman-detained-during-immigration-raid-downtown-los-angeles-is-us-citizen-family-says/16852834/). “She was like: ‘They’re kidnapping your sister.’”

US citizen arrested during immigration raid in downtown Los Angeles – video

Velez, a graduate of Cal Poly Pomona, was taken into custody during an immigration raid on Tuesday. In video captured from the scene, agents can be seen surrounding her as a crowd gathers in the street and police officers stand by. Meanwhile, Rosas and her mother, who has residency but is not a citizen, screamed from a nearby vehicle for help.

“She’s a US citizen,” Rosas said through tears. “They’re taking her. Help her, someone.”

In other video, an agent can be seen lifting Velez off the ground and carrying her away. Witnesses told media, including CBS Los Angeles, that the agents never asked Velez for identification, and that she did nothing wrong.

“The only thing wrong with her … was the color of her skin,” Velez’s mother, Margarita Flores, told CBS Los Angeles (https://www.cbsnews.com/losangeles/news/family-members-outraged-u-s-citizen-detained-federal-agents-downtown-la/).

Trump Admin Moves Quietly To Drop Charges Against MS-13 Leaders, Cites Other National Security Priorities

President Donald Trump made of law and order a key pillar of his campaign and administration, promising to prosecute and deport undocumented migrants, many of whom are believed to be violent gang members.

However, as he strengthens his relationship with El Salvador's Nayib Bukele, Trump is reportedly willing to drop charges to leaders of one of the most prominent international gangs that hails from the Central American country and has been linked to Bukele.

According to a new report from El Faro, an outlet extremely critical of Bukele, the president has seemingly convinced Trump to drop charges against leaders of the Mara Salvatrucha-13 (MS-13) gang who had been accused of terrorism and ordered to be prosecuted during the first Trump term.

If the charges are dropped, the Republican president would also be tossing the work of Vulcan, a joint task force with great fanfare announced in 2019 as a unit specially designed to combat MS-13, bringing together the Department of Homeland Security, several federal agencies, and ten prosecutors' offices which had operated in five countries.

Notably, the joint task force's work led to the capture of nine leaders of MS-13, all Salvadorans accused of narco-terrorism, human trafficking, murders committed in the U.S., planning the assassination of an FBI agent, and more, El Faro reports.

...

Bukele's close relationship with Salvadoran criminals and gang members is an open international secret. Last month, Carlos Caragena Lopez, one of the most recognized gang leaders in El Salvador whose charges were recently dropped in his home country, gave a 41-minute interview to El Faro, where he detailed how his gang, as well as other criminal organizations, allegedly helped the president rise to power.

Oscar Martinez, editor-in-chief of El Faro and co-author of the article, told El Pais that "[this interview] describes how gangs turned Bukele into a relevant politician. It allows us to reach the stark conclusion that it is impossible to understand Bukele's rise to total power without his association with gangs."

Iranian woman, who has lived in US for 47 years, taken by Ice while gardening

A 64-year-old Iranian woman, who has lived in the US for 47 years, was detained by immigration agents on Sunday morning while gardening outside her home in New Orleans.

According to a witness, plainclothes officers in unmarked vehicles handcuffed Madonna “Donna” Kashanian and transported her to a Mississippi jail before transferring her to the South Louisiana Ice processing center in Basile, reports Nola.

Kashanian arrived in the US in 1978 on a student visa and later applied for asylum, citing fears of persecution due to her father’s ties to the US-backed Shah of Iran. Her asylum request was ultimately denied, but she was granted a stay of removal on the condition she comply with immigration requirements, a condition her family says she always met.

She has no criminal record but remains in Ice custody.

Trump Administration Terminates Legal Status for More Than 500K Immigrants

...
Under U.S. law, at least 60 days before TPS designation expires, the Secretary must consult with relevant government agencies and review conditions in the designated country to decide whether the circumstances that justified the protection still exist and, if so, whether to extend the designation and for how long.

DHS claims that conditions in Haiti no longer meet the requirements for TPS. This decision was made following a review from U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services and consultations with the Department of State.

DHS argues that "country conditions have improved to the point where Haitians can return home in safety," however, gang violence is still a major issue in the country.

"I'm still in shock, but I'm totally disgusted. This is a complete lie stating that the situation in Haiti has improved enough that it is safe for Haitian citizens to return home. This is a lie," Tessa Petit, executive director of the Florida Immigrant Coalition and a Haitian immigrant, told Newsweek.

two things about having reached the "papers, please" phase of things

pretty soon everybody better have their papers in order

but even if you do, it doesn't matter at all to the arresting agencies -- they can just call it fake and detain you administratively

In April, a federal judge issued a preliminary injunction barring the Border Patrol from conducting warrantless raids (https://calmatters.org/justice/2025/04/border-patrol-injunction/) in the Central Valley. “You just can’t walk up to people with brown skin and say, ‘Give me your papers,’” U.S. District Court Judge Jennifer L. Thurston said, finding the warrantless stops likely violated the Constitution’s protection against unreasonable searches.

The man who led that operation, El Centro Sector Chief Gregory Bovino, is now in charge (https://calmatters.org/investigation/2025/06/los-angeles-border-patrol-chief/) of the operations across Los Angeles.

https://i0.wp.com/calmatters.org/wp-content/uploads/2025/06/061325_Gregory-Bovino_REUTERS_CM_01.jpg?resize=780%2C519&ssl=1

The men’s stories also suggest that agents are pushing people to sign removal forms before they can call home or speak with an attorney. Ahilan Arulanantham, co-director of the Center for Immigration Law and Policy at the UCLA School of Law, said those tactics would be “blatantly illegal.”

“You can’t condition phone access on anything,” Arulanantham said. “They have a right to call their family. They have a right to call a lawyer.”

He also raised concerns about the treatment the men described in government facilities. “It’s not permissible to manipulate the conditions of detention to encourage people to give up their rights,” he said.

U.S. wants to deport FBI informant who was set to testify in gang case in Mass.

In November 2022, a man in El Salvador believed he had few options: be snatched off the street by police or testify against Massachusetts members of MS-13, the criminal organization responsible for countless murders and other violent crimes in the U.S. and Central America.

But both happened. After nine months in Salvadoran prisons, the man only known as John Doe in court documents came to the United States as a material witness for a racketeering case in exchange, as he understood it, for refuge in the U.S.

He's now locked up in a facility here. A material witness often has testimony crucial to a case, and can be detained to protect them or prevent them from fleeing.

In the midst of the MS-13 case, the U.S. government revealed his identity in evidence and has been attempting to deport him.

In January, Doe filed a habeas corpus petition in Massachusetts federal court in his ongoing fight with the U.S. government to remain here as an asylum seeker.

Exposed as a snitch, Doe stated in the petition that he faces a death sentence if he returns.

Armed masked groups in unmarked cars and lack of uniform insignia - ARE NOT PEACE OFFICERS!

Resist and fight and do not allow these thugs to harm you or your family - and this goes for CITIZENS or UNDOCUMENTED alike.

I called this traitor hitler from day one and the "this is hyperbole" "when you bring up hitler - you lose the argument" comments was all i got...

well fuck you. We are here and i urge all non-whites to defend themselves against these nazi's. Fuck em. Guns are available everywhere and in Texas you can pack almost anywhere - which is why im not going near schools or other places where the law is grey

im packin = at every other place and am on alert to be accosted because there will be deaths - maybe even my own - but im not going down like prey while these nazi's who know zero about tactical or legal procedures as they kidnap innocent civilians.

Spread the word. Tell your fellow non-whites to stop running and stop crying and stop trying to follow rules/laws that mean nothing to nazis' -
in other words -

stop obeying in advance - this country is going to come to survival of the fittest and being in a central american concentration camp without freedom and arms - is a bad way to start.

what's your advice for white people now that you've encouraged nonwhites to rise up and revolt against them?

Flurry of 911 calls has been coming from ICE detention site near San Antonio

A detention center southwest of San Antonio used to hold people arrested by U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) has experienced a flurry of 9-1-1 calls originating from inside, Wired magazine reports.

The emergency calls, sometimes made by staff and sometimes by detainees or their visiting family members, paint a picture of dire conditions inside, immigrant advocates argue. The subject matter of the calls ranged from suicide attempts and allegations of sexual abuse to health issues faced by pregnant inmates, according to Wired's reporting.

"Conditions at the South Texas ICE Processing Center ('Pearsall') are broadly punitive, as they have been throughout its two-decade history under the management of private prison company GEO Group," immigrant rights advocacy group RAICES told the Current in an emailed statement.

"Near-capacity detention rates in recent weeks have only threatened to exacerbate long-held concerns and compound violations of the federal government’s own standards," RAICES continued. "Medical care is inadequate, disorganized and indifferent to urgency. Food is limited, heavily rationed and often expired. And inattentive guards enable systemic obstacles to qualified legal counsel for people in detention, which have only worsened under this administration based upon RAICES’ observations."

...

"You always have to remember that these are for-profit detention facilities," Ryan said. "These are corporations that are profit-based, and medical care is expensive. And so even if they have the facilities to provide medical care, if they are able to offload those services to the local community, they're going to do that because that's more money in their pockets."

Ryan continued: "You do everything you can to avoid spending money on the people who are detained there. And that's a race to the bottom in terms of safety and sanity and health for anybody who is unfortunate enough to be stuck inside of those facilities."

The JAMA Network's report showed a high rate of preventable deaths at ICE detention facilities nationwide due to inadequate medical care. Most deaths were people under 43 with no co-morbidities, and one-half of the deaths were due to preventable causes, such as COVID-19 and suicide.

Nazi concentration camps also had a for profit angle, although there it was more using them for slave labor and working them to death, not directly charging the taxpayers.

if ICE is deputizing bounty hunters, that brings the Fugitive Slave Act comparison even closer

Forcing detainees to sign away their rights is illegal

The team at @immdef.bsky.social (https://bsky.app/profile/did:plc:7p5rtelhbrwib3znwbxdlvbl)

has spent all morning desperately searching for Juli, a mom of 3 US citizens who has lived in LA for 21 years. 3 nights ago Juli was on her way to work when she was forcibly taken at gunpoint by men who in a short call to family she described as “bounty hunters.”...

Juli called family from blocked # last night & said she was initially taken with others from LA by bounty hunters to CBP near San Ysidro where officers demanded they sign papers to be deported. CBP said she was brought there because she had agreed to a voluntary deportation...

When she & others in group asked for lawyers & to see a judge, CBP returned all who refused to sign to bounty hunters’ van. They were then taken by the unknown armed men to a warehouse in a remote, unknown location. She is still there. We can’t find her in online detainee locatorhttps://bsky.app/profile/l-toczylowski.bsky.social/post/3lsoyy27obs2g

Trump's deportation goons continue to terrorize innocent Americans

Little kids stood up to masked cowards trying to take their mom

A mother walking with her children in Pasadena was taken into custody by immigration agents over the weekend in an incident that was partially captured on video and has drawn sharp criticism from witnesses.

Rosalina Luna Vargas, a mother of two and the primary breadwinner for her family, was detained by U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) officers on Saturday morning around 8 a.m., according to bystanders. Her children were present at the time of the incident, which took place in broad daylight in the corner of Catalina and Del Mar.

The encounter was recorded by Jillian Reed, a Caltech alum and local resident, who was driving by when she noticed a commotion on the sidewalk.
In the footage she captured, three individuals in plain clothes—two of whom were masked and wore badges on lanyards—can be seen attempting to force Vargas into an unmarked Honda Accord. A third man, appearing younger and without any visible identification, also participated.

“I saw the commotion while driving, and when I slowed down, the kids shouted for help,” Reed said. “They kept asking for a warrant. They told the officers they would stop resisting if they just showed them a warrant. One of the men said he had one but didn’t show it.”

The video cuts off just as Vargas’s daughter pleads with Reed to call the police. According to Reed, she did call 911, reporting what she believed at the time to be a possible kidnapping.

As the situation escalated, Vargas allegedly broke free from the agents and ran into the courtyard of the nearby Del Mar Park Assisted Living Facility, with her children following close behind. The agents pursued, but were confronted again by the children, who physically tried to shield their mother.

“They formed a human wall,” Reed said. “One of the kids clung to her, telling her, ‘Don’t let go! Don’t let go!’ while crying. Then he started shouting to the crowd, ‘I can’t lose my mom!’”

Reed said the staff at the assisted living facility intervened, telling the agents they were on private property and could not proceed without a warrant. The agents, she said, took photos of everyone present—including Reed—before leaving in two separate vehicles.

Pasadena police later arrived and took statements from those at the scene. According to Reed, ICE agents returned later and took Vargas into custody.

A family member told Reed the warrant in question was for someone else entirely, and that Vargas and her children had simply been “in the wrong place at the wrong time.”
