The shuttered DHS Office for Civil Rights and Civil Liberties “was one of the very few tools we had to check ICE, to hold ICE accountable,” immigration lawyer Sophia Genovese said. “Now you see them speeding to complete authoritarianism.”

#Trump posted a photo of himself holding up a picture claiming to show #KilmarAbregoGarcia’s tattoos that prove he’s MS-13.

The picture he’s holding has obviously been digitally altered to add the characters MS-13.

The source of this BS is a neo-Nazi X user who claims the tattoos are code for “MS-13.”

This is why you try people in court of #law & not on social media.

🚨🚨🚨NEW!!

The 4th Circuit Court of Appeals has UNANIMOUSLY rejected #Trump’s request to halt proceedings in #KilmarAbregoGarcia's case.
👏👏👏👏

Reagan appointee Judge Wilkinson wrote that the Trump admin's position is "shocking not only to judges, but to the intuitive sense of liberty that Americans ... still hold dear."

Damn straight.

Nice. Sen #SheldonWhitehouse just mentioned that #KilmarAbregoGarcia has an excellent #BivensAction complaint against #Trump et al.

#DeepCut but exactly on the nose.

A Bivens action generally refers to a lawsuit for #damages when a federal officer who is acting in the color of federal authority allegedly violates the US #Constitution by federal officers acting.

👏👏👏

John Lithgow --> 20 Lessons on Tyranny

Now, more than ever, we need the wisdom of our intellects, the patriotism of our citizens, and the passion and talents of those who still believe in the American experiment. I am deeply grateful to Timothy Snyder for his 20 Lessons On Tyranny and for talents of the brilliant John Lithgow for bringing them to life.

One of hundreds of people abducted by #ICE & sold to slavery in #ElSalvador was a 19 yr old with no criminal record in the US or Venezuela & no tattoos of any kind.

An ICE kidnapper who grabbed him outside his house said, "He's not the one."

The other said, "Take him anyway."

So they did.

Federal Judge Araceli Martinez-Olguin ordered the #Trump admin to restore funds for programs that provides legal services to unaccompanied minors in #immigration proceedings.

“Terminating funding for direct #LegalRepresentation for unaccompanied #children, without any plan to ensure continuity in representation, potentially violates Congress's express directive….”

#MarcoRubio posted on social media that he sent 17 people to #CECOT in #ElSalvador overnight, he claims that they are all Tren de Aragua or MS-13 members.

If they were *deported* under the questionably legal (US is not at war) #AEA, then it was in violation of the court order. Otherwise they would have to have had final orders of removal.

Hundreds of international #students have received an email telling them their #visas have been revoked.

The ‘justification’ is campus #activism or #SocialMedia posts.

Messed up & totally illegal

#MotherJones is reporting that one of the men “deported” to #ElSalvador’s #CECOT is Neri Alvarado, who was working in Dallas as a baker. An #ICE agent told him they were questioning ALL MEN WITH #TATTOOS.

Neri has an AUTISM AWARENESS TATTOO in honor of his 15-year-old brother w/ #autism.
