WH Press Sec Karoline Leavitt tells Andrew Feinberg of TheIndependent, “Shame on you" after he asked her about #ICE's "#AlienEnemiesAct Validation Guide” which the #Trump admin FILED IN COURT that states for ICE to label a person a member of #TdA, they must:
1) determine they are a #Venezuelan & over 14, &
2) find 8 points on a scoring guide they made:
4 points for having alleged *gang* tattoos +
4 points for displaying gang "logos" or
"symbols"
That’s it.
Crypto coming with the innovation: there's a new app where you can earn crowd sourced crypto by reporting people to #ICE so they can be #deported.

ICE officers arrested 54-year-old Julio Noriega and moved him into a van before he could explain himself, he said. He spent several hours in an ICE processing center before officers checked his wallet and realized he is a U.S. citizen.

"... if the entire country isn't in the streets then we're ok with it. TERRIFYING."

(1/2)I guess, even though I've always thought that these things were going to happen, in a way similar to the Handmaid's Tale, I still've trouble that the movie script seem to resemble a MAGA plan 4 real life more + more on a weekly basis.
In the same way, I'm observing The Next Civil War becoming likelier, but refusing to believe that it is happening.
At which point will there be an outcry of "Enough!" by a critical mass of people?...
“The lack of detail and clarity regarding the initial investigation—beyond the vague statement that ‘we are investigating and hope to reach a conclusion within 120 days’—is simply not enough."

I slept better after donating to #unicef #gaza
Was upset about Israel targeting and killing 2 reporters yesterday, one for #aljazeera the other for #palestinetoday. Was upset about #ICE knocking doors on campus looking for another Columbia student protester “obstructing US foreign policy”.
Decided a donation was a good way to #resist a foreign policy of #genocide.
Another case like #MahmoudKhalil & #BadarSuri:
On March 15, #MomodouTaal, a #CornellUniversity PhD student w/ #UK & #Gambia citizenship, here on a #StudentVisa, filed a lawsuit seeking to overturn #Trump's EO aimed at foreign students accused of "antisemitism”.
This morning at 12:52AM, the #DOJ emailed asking him to come to #ICE to be detained & put into removal proceedings.

Just a snapshot of what's going with ICE in Chicago. Beyond the headline, one man, a U.S. citizen, was picked up a couple miles from my house, handcuffed, and held for over 10 hours before being released with no way home. No record of his arrest exists. How many stories like these are there nationwide?

NEW. The #Trump admin files its notice w/ Judge #Boasberg, saying:
1. Everyone on the third plane had a final order of removal, so was not deported under the #AEA
2. The Proclamation was signed Friday but didn't go into effect until posted on the WH website
3. #ICE alleges there are 258 known #TdA members in the US

#Boasberg then asks how many people are subject to the proclamation & how many people are currently in #ICE custody.
#DOJ says they don't have it. #ACLU also says they don't have it, & points out that the proclamation is vague enough that it's hard for anyone to figure out who is subject.

Some Americans Have Already Been Caught in Trump’s Immigration Dragnet. More Will Be.

Federal immigration authorities have a history of wrongfully detaining U.S. citizens. Advocates warn that the Trump administration’s immigration policies mean that more citizens will get caught up in raids and sweeps.

After placing another Greencard holder in awful conditions, ICE put him in the hospital (I guess it’s good they didn’t just kill him). Unless they’re stopped, only a matter of time until they do this to everyone.
“…stripped naked, put in a cold shower by 2 officials…placed on a mat in a bright room w/other people at the airport, w/little food or water, suffered sleep deprivation, & was denied access to his medication for anxiety & depression.”

A ten year old girl recovering from brain cancer was deported to Mexico and prevented from attending her necessary follow up appointment
She was a U.S. citizen, but it didn’t matter.
The cruelty is the point.
I hope this sweet kiddo can access the care she needs to make a full recovery, and shame on those ICE agents who thought this was “ok”
This is why we speak out. Unspeakable horrors are happening all around us and if we stay silent, it will change us.
Don’t stay silent. Resist.

"Most of the orders will not be held up in court when challenged because they’re all unconstitutional, and the best example of that, of course, is the bedrock constitutional principle that all people born or naturalized in the United States are citizens of the United States—that’s in the Constitution. He could issue 45,000 executive orders saying otherwise, but it doesn’t matter."
