    CBP has a crime problem


    Criminality is so rampant inside CBP that it has seen one of its own agents or officers arrested every 24 to 36 hours since 2005. CBP’s misconduct scandal is so long-running that today it would be old enough to drink.
    In total, according to CBP’s own discipline reports, over the 20 years from 2005 to 2024 — the last year numbers are available — at least 4,913 CBP officers and Border Patrol agents have been arrested themselves, some multiple times. (In 2018 alone, a single CBP employee was arrested five times.) To put that number in perspective:
    • The population of CBP agents and officers who have been arrested would make it roughly the nation’s fourth largest police department — equal to the size of the entire Philadelphia police.
    • Indeed, for much of the 2010s and likely before and since, it appears the crime rate of CBP agents and offices was higher PER CAPITA than the crime rate of undo ented immigrants in the United States.

    that's bull , Yoni

    that's just your silly opinion
    Nope; not an opinion.

    About 900,000 legal immigrants went through the naturalization process and became citizens in 2025 (so far - numbers are incomplete).

    7.4 million have become naturalized citizens in the past decade.



    Doing it the legal way happens all the time.

    CPB officers get arrested more than undo ented immigrants

    Undo ented immigrants get arrested less than native Texans in Texas

    Try harder, Yoni

    there are thousands of do ented cases of wrongful detention already

    3d Cir. holds that habeas corpus pe ions challenging immigration detention are "civil actions," so prevailing noncitizens may be en led to attorneys' fees and costs under the Equal Access to Justice Act.

    very shady


    “Mr. Lyons said he was in charge, and I corrected him saying I report to Corey Lewandowski,” Bovino reportedly said of the unpaid special government employee.

    The Court GRANTS Plaintiffs’ Motion for Temporary Restraining Order (ECF11)and hereby enters the following Order.

    TEMPORARY RESTRAINING ORDER

    1.Defendants and their agents, employees, and all persons acting under their direction or in active concert or participation with them (collectively, “Enjoined Persons”) ar ehereby prohibited and enjoined from engaging in or directing or encouraging others to engage in any of the following actions at or in the vicinity of the Immigration and Customs Enforcement building located at4310 S.Macadam Avenue,near the corner of Southwest Moody Avenue and Southwest Bancroft Street in Portland, Oregon (“Portland ICE Building”)

    :a.No Enjoined Person may direct or use chemical or projectile munitions,including but not limited to kinetic impact projectiles, pepper ball or paintball guns, pepper or oleoresin capsi spray, tear gas or other chemical irritants, soft nose rounds, 40mm or37mm launchers, less lethal shotguns, and flashbang, Stinger, or rubber ball grenades,unless the specific target of such a weapon or device poses an imminent threat of physical harm to a law enforcement officeror other person.

    b.No Enjoined Person may fire any munitions or use any weapons(includingthose described above) at the head, neck,or torso of any person, unless theofficerislegally justified in using deadly force against that person.ECF 66 (9th Cir. Dec. 18, 2025). There, the court stayed the injunction “to the extent that [it]appl[ied] to protestors who [were] not parties to this litigation.”Id.at1. The plaintiffs inL.A.Press Club, however, originally did not seek classwide relief, so AARP’s rule authorizing temporary relief to putative class members did not apply to the motion then pending before the district court.SeeC. D. Cal. Case No. 2:25-cv-05563.

    c.No Enjoined Person may target any individual with a less lethal munition,if doing so would endanger any other individual who does not pose an imminent threat of physical harm to a law enforcement officer or other
    person. For purposes of illustration only,no Enjoined Person may use chemical or projectile munitions in response to trespassing, refusal to move, or refusal to obey a dispersal order

    .2.Nothing in this Order shall prevent an Enjoined Person from making an otherwise lawful arrest if there is probable cause to believe that a crime has been committed and that the person being arrested has committed that crime
    .3.Nothing in this Order shall prevent an Enjoined Person from using proportional force, including less lethal weapons, on any individual who poses an imminent threat of physical harm to a law enforcement officer or other person.
    4.Defendants shall not be liable for violating this Temporary Restraining Order if a person is incidentally exposed to a crowd-control device,provided that such a device is deployed in a manner fully consistent with thisOrder.
    5.Defendants shall promptly provide either a copy of this Temporary Restraining Order or a reasonably complete, accurate,and comprehensive summary to all Enjoined Persons who will likely be assigned any duties at orin the vicinity of the Portland ICE Building. Further,Defendants shall promptly file with the Court a copy of what they provided or will provide in thefuture as new Enjoined Persons begin their work at or in the vicinity of the Portland ICE Building.6.In the interest of justice, Plaintiffs need not provide any security, and the Court waives all requirements under Rule65(c) of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure

    .This Order shall expire fourteen (14) days after entry, unless otherwise extended by stipulation of the parties or further Order of the Court.8.Plaintiffs may file a motion for preliminary injunction not later than February12,2026,Defendant may respond not later than February19, 2026, and Plaintiff may reply not later than February26, 2026. The Court will hold an evidentiary hearing beginning on March2, 2026,at 9:00a.m. in Courtroom 15Bof the United States Courthouse in Portland, Oregon. All otherprovisions in the Court’s First Case Management Order (ECF44) remain in effect.

    IT IS SO ORDERED.

    DATED this 3rd day of February, 2026, at 1:57p.m.
    Michael H. Simon
    United States District Judge

    Deportation freaks are 100% wrong on the facts

    Immigration is good

    Immigrants contribute more than they take


    The US immigrant population generated more in taxes than they received in benefits from all levels of government every year from 1994 to 2023.

    The Cato study provides the first-ever 30-year analysis of the fiscal effects of immigration on government budgets.

    The NASEM–Cato model shows the following:



    • Every year from 1994 to 2023, immigrants have paid more in taxes than they received in benefits.
    • Immigrants generated nearly $10.6 trillion more in federal, state, and local taxes than they induced in total government spending.
    • Accounting for savings on interest payments on the national debt, immigrants saved $14.5 trillion in debt over this 30-year period.
    • Immigrants cut US budget deficits by about a third from 1994 to 2023, and fiscal savings grew to $878 billion in 2023 (Figure 1).
    • Noncitizens accounted for $6.3 trillion of the $14.5 trillion debt savings.
    • College graduate immigrants accounted for $11.7 trillion in savings, while non–college graduates accounted for $2.8 trillion.
    • The cohort of immigrants entering from 1990 to 1993, just before data collection began in 1994, was fiscally positive $1.7 trillion, and was still positive after 30 years in 2022–2023 (Table 1).
    • Even including the second generation (see Box 1 for definitions), who are mostly still children who will become taxpayers soon, the fiscal effect of immigration was positive every year.
    • Immigrants in all categories of educational attainment, including high school dropouts, lowered the ratio of deficit to gross domestic product (GDP) during the 30-year period.
    • Without the contributions of immigrants, public debt at all levels would already be above 200 percent of US GDP—nearly twice the 2023 level and a threshold some analysts believe would trigger a debt crisis.8

    5th Circuit panel oks DHS's mass deportation scheme three days after oral arguments

    Gonna be a lot of people shipped to gulags in Texas, Louisiana and Mississippi in the short term, where they can't ask for bonds and will be pressured to sign their rights away

    (the ruling may or may not survive en banc consideration)

    late Friday night, in a ruling handed down just two days after oral argument, a divided panel of the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit adopted the extreme minority view—holding that, yes, the government can indefinitely detain without bond millions of non-citizens who have been here for generations; who have never committed a crime; and who pose neither a risk of flight nor any threat to public safety.
