You can quibble over paperwork and terminology all you want, but none of your quibbling will change the fact that this man and so many others we are cruelly deporting probably love this country more than any native born citizen. He isn’t here because of some accident of birth; he chose this country because it was a beacon of hope. We are less as a nation for deporting people like him.
Last year the Trump admin made a startling claim; that a 1996 law had, unbeknownst to anyone for the last 30 years, mandated the detention without bond of millions of undocumented immigrants.
The resulting chaos has drowned federal courts, overwhelmed the DOJ, and spread misery.
NEW: We’ve spent a year tracking ICE’s massive expansion of detention for people with years-long ties to the U.S. It has strained courts, wrecked lives and been widely deemed illegal.
Our report, based on interviews with judges, detainees and attorneys: https://t.co/MKgx4iMlis
The man who treats Medical Emergencies at Delaney Hall was told by a man released who had blood shot eyes & shackle marks that Edwin Lopez Cornejo died at the detention center & that yesterday a man had a cardiac arrest & another had a CVA & seizure & the guards laughed at him.
An ICE agent walked up to a Southwest gate in Dallas and asked to board a flight to arrest a passenger. The gate agent asked for a warrant signed by a judge. He had the kind ICE writes for itself. He left empty-handed.

Nobody, nobody relishes human suffering like the new right. It’s not about the rule of law, law and order. It’s about deriving pleasure from the suffering of other people, and ideally monetizing it. The thing about “woke” is that it at least had a constructive vision of a more just and freer world, even if it had its excesses and follies. These people simply want to derive as much enjoyment from as much human suffering as possible. It’s sick and needs to be defeated.
i dont believe the avg american thinks taxing the rich, m4a, no longer sending money or weapons to israel, banning corporate pacs, conditional amnesty for migrants & ice abolition is worse than a neonazi platform of holocaust denial, anti miscegenation, & concentration camps.
Elon musk, an immigrant from Africa, is demonising immigrants from Africa.
This is because he is white and they are black.
Musk is a white supremacist.
