The same people demanding you present a photo ID to vote are perfectly fine with letting you be arrested, handcuffed & thrown into a van by armed men wearing plain clothes, face masks & presenting no identification of any sort.
“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
https://www.texastribune.org/2025/06...a-deportation/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 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 undo ented immigrants cost the country more than they contribute to it. But it found that undo ented 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 undo ented immigrants work in California, comprising 8% of the state’s workforce, the study estimated.https://www.sfchronicle.com/californ...a-20382255.phpResearchers said undo ented 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 undo ented 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 undo ented immigrants.
Undo ented 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.
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 ulative 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.”
They have to go back
Martinez is a US citizen and has a right to an attorney
ICE is holding him incommunicado, there's no good reason for that -- ing press charges or release the guy
https://www.msn.com/en-us/public-saf...ge/ar-AA1GXyLEMartinez's family said they don't know where federal agents took the 20-year-old. They went to a federal detention center and were told he was not there, but that he is likely going to be charged with assaulting a federal officer.
KCAL News has reached out to Immigration and Customs Enforcement and Walmart for comment, but has not received responses.
Trump is losing big on this issue -- you all are, really
Why?
It's not like you can call yourself a "law and order" guy anymore.
CUZ THEY EATING THE DOGS

Whoa a whopping 2? Use det tax money and get em!!EW ORLEANS -- The U.S. Immigration and Customs "Enforcement arrested 84 people unlawfully in the country during a raid at a southwest Louisiana racetrack, the agency announced Tuesday....
Of the dozens of workers detained during the raid, “at least two” had prior criminal records, according to the agency.
"These enforcement operations aim to disrupt illegal employment networks that threaten the integrity of our labor systems, put American jobs at risk..."

Decades old question still pending: who the is mad that they didn't get these jobs that illegals are doing?

“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
https://www.nytimes.com/2025/06/18/h...ravel-ban.htmlNew 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.

Hilarious/frightening twist: ICE denies being there
"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."

You s really happy about this?
they're sadists, of course it makes them happy
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
https://www.rawstory.com/trump-farms/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 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 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.
