If you’re grabbed by someone wearing “shock gloves”…your body may convulse involuntarily.

It could look like you’re resisting arrest when in reality, you’re in medical distress.

The appearance of resistance gives ICE grounds to use lethal force.

These gloves will kill people.

“Nothing like this has ever happened to me,” Gannon said.

His fiancee is detained by ICE but this asshole STILL makes it all about his shitty egotistical white privilege.

These people are the scourge of our country.

👴🏻"But I'm rich and white! Nothing like this has ever happened to me before! I don't like how this feels! 🤡"

That face-eating leopard's tummy is about to burst!

He did this to his own wife.

Or more accurately, he did this to someone else's wife, and they did this to his wife.

Cruel. Careless.

Wow. The Interior Minister of Morocco confirming that the massive influx of illegal crossings into to the Spanish exclave of Ceuta was incited by an online campaign that falsely claimed the border was open and that there would be no legal consequences for entering Spain and the EU.

Sounds like an Op to me.

The question is, perpetrated by whom?

USA? Trump has made his displeasure clear of late.
Russia? Spain remains one of the most pro immigrant countries, is Putin trying to distract EU leaders to take attention away?

Israel? Spain has made their opposition to the genocide in Gaza and their support for Palestinians clear.

Iran? Mixing it up and sowing chaos (probably with Russia’s help but maybe not)

Someone else?

did anyone want to hear a #Shakespeare speech castigating nativist cruelty against #immigration?

of course such a speech exists: bigoted malice against #immigrants is not new. the wicked have long yoked the ignorant and indecent for power

it refers to a real event: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Evil_May…

it is called "The Strangers' Case" speech

from the play "Sir Thomas More"

here delivered by #IanMcKellen from memory

(#Gandalf, #Magneto, etc)

Much of the camp infrastructure we see today was es­tablished in the Obama years. In 2014, as more families fled violence and poverty and headed toward the United States, the Obama administration reverted to using detention as an attempted means of deterrence.

Why do I bring up family court in regards to Joan Sebastian Guerrero?

It's about how ICE's strategy has ALREADY started to evolve to prepare for a less hot phase.

Trump is working to get more federal use out of local family court proceeedings.

Family Court is an avenue to harm on a nationwide massive scale with the benefit to Trump of generally being so isolating that advocates are unable to organize.

The ICE officer who shot a Colombian man in Maine this week is an Army vet who has struggled with serious mental health issues since early childhood & never should have been given a #badge & #gun to #patrol #US streets, several of his close relatives told AP.

US Senator warns of #Trump admin plan to hastily remove over 500 unaccompanied #immigrant #children

A Democratic US senator warns the Trump admin is getting ready to round up 500 immigrant children in a hasty effort to remove them from the country, bypassing #legal protections. It would be their second attempt after a federal court intervened last year in an overnight plan to fly out hundreds of children on Labor Day weekend.

The judge ruled that there appeared to be “extremely weak to nonexistent” connections between the information sought in the subpoenas & any possible criminal violation. The subpoenas seek materials “that largely if not entirely relate to constitutionally protected conduct,” the judge wrote, noting that #Minnesota has the legal right not to devote its resources to enforcing #federal #immigration #law.

#law #MafiaState #Trump


The #DOJ “is not conducting a criminal investigation,” the judge wrote, “but is instead using the grand jury process for other (unlawful) purposes.”

The evidence that the subpoenas were issued for #unlawful reasons is overwhelming, the judge said, arguing that the Justice Department “has struggled — without success — to identify a single plausible investigatory justification” for them.

#law #immigration #MafiaState #Trump


The subpoenas were served in January as part of an investigation into whether Gov #TimWalz & other officials obstructed or impeded law enforcement during a sweeping #immigration operation in the #Minneapolis – #StPaul area.

The subpoenas, which seek records, were sent to the offices of Walz, Attorney General Keith Ellison, Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey, St. Paul Mayor Kaohly Her & officials in Ramsey & Hennepin counties.

#law #MafiaState #Trump


A federal judge has blocked an attempt by the #Trump admin to subpoena #Minnesota Gov #TimWalz & other #state officials, calling it an effort to “harass & retaliate against them.”

In a ruling unsealed Monday, US District Judge Patrick Schlitz found the “dominant purpose” of the subpoenas was to “coerce Minnesota officials into assisting the federal government with enforcing civil #immigration #law & to harass & retaliate against them for failing to do so.”

Say NO to separation but most importantly, give a resounding NO to racist anti-immigrant rhetoric to deny healthcare, basic supports, and societal inclusion from newcomers!

I can't stress this enough. They're connected but separation is a distraction from more direct divisive politics.

If Alberta separates then hate will rule, but in the much more likely scenario that we don't separate, they will win anyways if they turn our Alberta into the one they wanted to create.

The finding comes as #ICE is eliminating its requirement to report deaths that occur within 30 days of people being released from its custody, & as the #Trump administration continues to detain large numbers of immigrants. Michel entered the country through the southern border in 2022 & was granted #humanitarian parole, said her family’s attorney, Joseph Patrick Murphy. She died before the first hearing in her #immigration case.

#law #homicide #ExtrajudicialKillings #murder


Over the course of 3 days, Michel appears to have never left that bench, said her family’s attorney, who viewed the security footage & shared stills with WaPo. She had a history of untreated mental health issues & sat staring as people passed by, a plastic bag with her belongings, including a cellphone, placed beside her.

#law #Trump #immigration #ICE #homicide #ExtrajudicialKillings


By March 2, the Haitian woman was no longer sitting. The last image captured in the footage, according to the attorney, shows her lying on the ground. Emergency responders arrived at the scene & transferred Michel to a hospital, where she died that day.

It was at least the second death this year involving an individual who was released by federal #immigration authorities & died days later of complications related to hypothermia.

#law #Trump #ICE #homicide #ExtrajudicialKillings


“The opinion of the forensic pathologist in this case is that Ms. Michel was a vulnerable adult, suffering from untreated severe #MentalHealth issues & a significant #LanguageBarrier when she was released from federal custody on February 27,” Jim Madalinsky, the county’s public information officer, said in a statement. “Based on all available information during the investigation, the pathologist ruled Ms. Michel’s death a #homicide.”

Notes from a former U.S. immigration officer writing about his thoughts on the immigration process and the severe changes made to ‘legal’ immigration

“Finally, what does all of this mean for those of you trying to “come the right way” and those of us whose job is to help you do that? Delay, confusion, and inconsistency. This needs to be said in absolute, crystal-clear terms: this administration wants as little legal immigration as possible. They know they cannot completely stop immigration, so they instead will focus on making it as expensive, slow, and miserable for people as they can. I promise you that what gets reported in the news, be it a new policy or requirement, is just a small sampling of the ways this administration is telling the agency to make things more difficult and/or slower.”
