Neo-slave-status poverty workers?

Woman comes to US at age 6. Graduates nursing school. Work permit. No criminal record. Snatched and imprisoned by ICE for 6 months now. About to be forced back to Honduras. A life destroyed and one less nurse. Merry Christmas.

They think we are all morons.

These redactions were a confession.

It’s just too comical!
Some of these redactions are almost like modern art

ICE just moved through Rogers Park, headed north into Evanston. The RP community response has not gotten slower in the winter. A lot of folks were out in the streets the moment they got off Lake Shore Drive. Everyone on the North Side is on high alert today. Stay ready.

Bravo!
One of the biggest moments of my career:
USCIS canceled my client’s naturalization oath ceremony. We filed a lawsuit, went to trial, and the judge swore him in right there in the courtroom!

This is the case widely shared on video where a man had a seizure while in a chokehold. DHS accused him publicly of faking.

One of the cases I've been following is Jolt Initiative v. Paxton, where a civic group aiming to increase engagement by Latino voters in TX claims they've been unfairly/unconstitutionally targeted by Gov. Ken Paxton.

Paxton has filed his response to their motion for a preliminary injunction:

Congresswoman Ilhan Omar's son was pulled over by ICE and forced to prove he is an American.

Two options:

1) ICE deliberately targeted him.

2) ICE is stopping all non-White people without any probable cause and forcing them to prove they are citizens.

Hard to say which option is scarier.

Extraordinary courage from Ahmed al Ahmed, a Muslim, 43-year-old father of two, who bravely risked his life to save his neighbors celebrating Hanukkah.

Praying for his full & speedy recovery.

And so deeply inspired by his example.
