This is a terrible ruling.
Being in an immigration proceeding is not a crime. There is no reason to detain someone who is in immigration proceeding!
This ruling, if not overturned, is bound to cause massive brain-drain from USA.
I hope there is appeal and the ruling gets overturned.

Trump has done a hatchet job on the U.S. Consumer Finance Protection Bureau (CFPB). While courts have upheld its ability to draw funds from the Fed, its operations are seriously scaled back.

When the U.S. Supreme Court said that you could detain people based on their race, their accent, or the language they spoke… there is nothing to preclude ICE from doing that while you’re standing in line getting ready to cast a ballot.

When white people see white supremacy in history & they side with it, then yeah, I’m sure you do feel pressured to apologize for it. But it’s not that you’re being asked to apologize for being white, but for actively trying to perpetuate white supremacy.
