ILLEGAL #DHS actions:

"As immigrantshave slowly stopped appearing for their hearings, CH arrests by #ICE officers have continued. 10 IMMs were arrested during the afternoon hearings on July 31.

But immigrant #rights groups are seeking to block thisrapid removal of #immigrants following their hearings."

The #TrumpRegime must be reined in,fed agents are terrorizing IMMs, separating family mems, & destroying lives, livelihoods, comms, the #economy...

Torture at #CECOT

A legal scholar traces the origins of #dueprocess from medieval England to modern America:

https://theconversation.com/due-process-what-it-means-in-us-law-and-its-implications-for-migrant-rights-259756

"Miller was unequivocal: Trump admin: wants a *min* of 3,000 IMM arrests/day to carry out Trump’s mass deportation policy.

On Fri, #DHS & #ICEnever received such an order. IMM advocates say the pressure to meet daily targets has led the admin to flagrantly violate #dueprocess... Judges keep citing it as they strike down Trump’s most aggressive deportation measures.

The chasm mayundermining the DOJ’s already strained credibility with judges."

#MAGA senator slams illegal immigrants as 'criminals' — then steps in to free ICE detainee

Jennifer Bowers Bahney
July 31, 2025 3:54PM ET

"MAGA Sen. #JohnKennedy (R-LA), who has been a fervent supporter of Immigration and Customs Enforcement efforts to deport undocumented migrants, reversed course when it came to one of his constituents, according to The New York Times.

"Kennedy told Fox News on July 17, 'If you’re in our country illegally, you’re a criminal. Illegal immigration is illegal, duh.'

"And yet, the senator's office recently asked the Department of Homeland Security to release 25-year-old #PaolaClouatre after two months in a #Louisiana #DetentionCenter, the report said.

"Clouatre is a Mexican citizen and mother of two young children who is married to a U.S. #MarineCorps #veteran.

" 'In an email on Tuesday morning, Christy Tate, the constituent services representative in Mr. Kennedy’s office, wrote to Mr. Clouatre to confirm that his wife had been released from ICE custody after her office had made a formal request to the federal agency,' the report said.

"The email read in part, 'I am so happy for you and your family. We will continue to keep you, your family and others that are experiencing the same issues in our prayers.' [Because of you, Mr. Kennedy!!!]

"Reporter Pooja Salhotra wrote that Clouatre came to the United States as a teenager 'to seek asylum with her mother and brother.' After her mother failed to show up for a court hearing in California in 2018, a judge issued a deportation order against the teen.

"Now estranged from her mother, Clouatre said she didn't learn of the deportation order until earlier this year 'when she was already in the process of applying for a #greencard, the report said.

"She was detained by ICE agents on May 27 shortly after giving birth, and while attending a 'routine appointment in New Orleans related to her application for a green card and #PermanentResident status,' according to the report.

"During her incarceration, Clouatre's husband brought the couple's 9-week-old baby to the jail so she could breastfeed. [How Christian of them!] She is currently wearing an ankle monitor and awaiting a court date for her immigration proceedings."

#NationalGuard Ordered to Do #ICE Paperwork at #Immigration Facilities in 20 States

#Trump’s deployment of the National Guard to immigration facilities further blurs the line between #military and #LawEnforcement.

by Nick Turse, July 31 2025

"The Trump administration authorized the deployment of National Guard troops to immigration facilities in 20 states beginning early next month, further entwining the military in civil and law enforcement functions.

"The move undermines long-standing prohibitions on the use of the armed forces in domestic operations, sidestepping the Posse Comitatus Act and accelerating the U.S. transition into a #PoliceState, experts said.

"The National Guard will be deployed in #Arkansas, #Florida, #Georgia, #Indiana, #Iowa, #Louisiana, #Nebraska, #SouthCarolina, #Texas, #Utah, and #Virginia, among other states, according to a defense official who was not authorized to disclose the information.

"Immigration and Customs Enforcement acknowledged it was now finalizing the parameters of its expanded collaboration with the Pentagon. 'We’re engaged with the Department of Defense and we’re figuring out the next steps,' Tanya Roman, an ICE spokesperson told The Intercept.

"Guard members will assist ICE officials in 'alien processing' – administrative work preceding detention — in 20 states while ICE leadership will 'direct' troops assigned to the mission, which will begin in early August, according to a memo first revealed on Wednesday by the New York Times.

" 'The National Guard serving as camp administrators for ICE’s infamous #DetentionCenters is a dangerous and shameful step for everyone involved,' said #SamRatner, policy director at #WinWithoutWar.

"The Pentagon told The Intercept that these troops will operate under so-called Title 32 status, meaning they will be under state, rather than federal, control, unlike deployments in Los Angeles and across the southern border. Experts say it hardly lessens the dangers to democracy.

" 'This move raises almost all the same concerns as using active-duty troops, and then some,' Elizabeth Goitein, senior director of the Brennan Center’s liberty and national security program, told The Intercept. 'This is yet another attempt to circumvent the #PosseComitatusAct, which normally prohibits the military from engaging in civilian law enforcement activities.' "

Republican’s #TownHall Blows Up in His Face as He’s Showered in Boos

by Robert McCoy
Fri, August 1, 2025

"#BryanSteil entered the Elkhorn High School auditorium on Thursday to resounding boos, and faced a raucous crowd for the duration of the 80-minute session, including fierce questions on his support of Trump’s agenda, as well as frequent interruptions, chants, and jeering.

"Attendees were evidently fired up over Steil’s support of Trump’s budget, poised to tilt taxes in favor of the #rich while tattering the #SocialSafetyNet. Steil defended his vote on the bill, which is also estimated to balloon the national debt by trillions of dollars. (When the lawmaker mentioned national debt as a pressing issue, one attendee interjected: 'Thanks to you!')

"He also voiced his support of Trump’s controversial immigration policies—a topic which elicited 'some of the loudest boos,' according to the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel.

"More than one person in attendance referred to the Florida immigrant detention camp callously dubbed '#AlligatorAlcatraz' as a #ConcentrationCamp, which Steil objected to. A constituent noted that 'the difference between a #prison or a #DetentionCenter and a concentration camp is #DueProcess.'

"Steil also had to address Trump’s tariffs (which one attendee called 'a terrible tax that’s going to be placed on the citizens of the United States'), as well as Trump’s push to all but abolish the Department of Education ('Education is best resolved at the local level,' Steil said).

"Many questions Steil faced reflected a widespread perception that Steil is in Trump’s pocket. One attendee said, 'Southeast #Wisconsin has not been represented by you. President Trump seems to run Southeast Wisconsin through you.'

"Another made similar remarks in the context of immigration. 'What I see happening to our #Immigrant population embarrasses me—horrifies me,' she said.
You have not raised a voice to complain about it. Where do I see your leadership? I see no leadership—I see you following Trump 100 percent of the time.' In response to this latter question, Steil, ironically, 'lauded Trump’s executive orders and #deportations,' Wisconsin #PublicRadio reports."
