#Trump #immigration ofcls tout expanding the #AlienEnemiesAct while courting private contractors for mass removals

The head of #ICE said he’d like the agency to implement a system of trucks that rounds up #immigrants for #deportation in a system similar to how #Amazon delivers packages.

“We need to get better at treating this like a business,” acting ICE dir, Todd Lyons, said. He wants to see a deportation process “like (Amazon) Prime, but with human beings”

Adrian Carrasquillo: The Secret Weakness of Trump’s Deportations: Pressure can work to bring people home.

"IN SPITE OF THE DELUGE OF BAD NEWS about immigration, I was reminded this week that, as a retired farm laborer once put it to legendary Chicago journalist and radioman Studs Terkel, “hope dies last.” Specifically: … his administration is still vulnerable to pressure campaigns to release sympathetic immigrants.

"Once notified, the students must find another legal pathway to stay in the U.S. or else they’ll have 15 days to leave...

The four students impacted by the DHS investigation are in good academic standing, according to university staff.

“Revocation like the ones students are experiencing are extremely rare,” UO said. “Our vice provost of global engagement has not seen this happen in his 20 years in his field.”

If you didn't speak out because you're not a Venezuelan gang member, you really need to go back and reread that poem by Pastor Niemoller because you, or any of us, could be next.

SCOTUS ruled 5-4 this week that Trump could abduct & deport people to offshore gulags, incl US citizens.

SCOTUS Justice Sotomayor wrote:

The implication of the Government’s position is that not only noncitizens but also United States citizens could be taken off the streets, forced onto planes, and confined to foreign prisons with no opportunity for redress if judicial review is denied unlawfully before removal. History is no stranger to such lawless regimes, but this Nation’s system of laws is designed to prevent, not enable, their rise.

Justice Jackson compared the ruling to the Korematsu decision of 1944, which upheld the internment of Japanese Americans.

Could US citizens really be disappeared to El Salvador?

Their fascist president, Nayib Bukele, stated that he was willing to imprison US citizens.

On 21 April, #Germany will deport me – an #EU citizen convicted of no crime – for standing with #Palestine

"None of the charges have yet led to a court hearing, yet the #deportation letters conclude that we are a threat to public order and national security. There has been no legal process for this decision, and none of us have a criminal record. The reasoning in the letters continues with vague and unfounded accusations of “#antisemitism” and supporting “terrorist organisations” – referring to #Hamas – as well as its supposed “front organisations in Germany and #Europe”.

Since October 2023, the German Federal Office for Migration and Refugees has unlawfully frozen the processing of all asylum seekers from Gaza. And on 16 April 2025 a federal administrative court in Germany will reportedly decide on a case that could set a precedent for the German state to mass deport Palestinian refugees.

...What we do know is that we are in the right, and however Germany decides to act now, we – hopefully with the international community alongside us – will act and fight accordingly. Standing up against the ongoing #genocide and calling for a free Palestine is the most important thing to do now. theguardian.com/commentisfree/

Urgent: Trump working on "pathway" to deport even US citizens to CECOT in El Salvador

We now have word that Der TrumpenFuhrer is seeking to use the CECOT labor/death camp prison in El Salvador against US citizens too. Most likely this will start with attempts by ICE to arrest folks for pro-Palestine statements and activism, and expand outward from there.

CECOT is built and managed on the assumption that everyone inside is there for life and can be worked until they drop. Nobody is expected to make it out alive. Thus, when Trump says "deportation" he means it in the "getting on trains in 1941" sense of the word.

Whatr would you have done in 1941 about the final solution? You are doing it right now!

First they came for the Palestine protesters, but I wasn't a Palestine protester...

BREAKING NEWS: In a shocking statement, Karoline Leavitt confirms the Trump Administration is taking steps on a pathway to deport AMERICAN CITIZENS to El Salvador. This is absolutely insane.

German-U.S. Nazi feedback loop now happening in real time

"Objections from a top immigration official that none of the protesters were convicted of crimes were overruled amid political pressure"

The spotlight's on the U.S. right now but fascists around the world are having a moment and we need to stamp this shit out wherever it occurs
