NEW: ICE’s policy of mass detaining immigrants w pending deportation proceedings has led to an avalanche of rejections in court.

More than 220 judges — including 23 Trump appointees — have called it an illegal distortion of long-settled law. www.politico.com/news/2025/11...

Reuters reached out to everyone that Trump or his subordinates singled out publicly for retribution, and reviewed hundreds of official orders, directives and public records. The result: the most comprehensive accounting yet of his campaign of payback.

BONUS: The claim that “100,000 Christians have been killed” comes from a group called InterSociety, who admitted to BBC just this month that they have no way to verify their claim with evidence or facts.

They’re literally making up alternative facts & Trump, Cruz, & MAGA are running with it.

This is called “chain refoulment” and it’s illegal under both U.S. and international law. And the State Department and ICE know very well what Ghana is doing and simply don’t care.
ICE deported a woman who owned a home in the US for 30 years. A judge banned ICE from deporting her to Sierra Leone where she had been tortured, so it deported her to Ghana, which kidnapped her and sent her back Sierra Leone anyway. ICE is part of this illegal conspiracy.

Today, after months of requests, I toured the Broadview ICE Processing Facility. I want to share what I saw.

The facility has no food vendor, no medical care, and detainees have to use toilets in the middle of shared cells. These are in no way suitable conditions to be holding anyone — period.

"It appears that ICE is preparing to dramatically expand its reign of terror in Baltimore very soon. Come learn from organizers from Ednor Gardens/Waverly who’ve successfully built a robust community ICE watch in their neighborhoods.

An ICE agent was caught removing a sign marking an ICE kidnapping in DC last week! Do we think he did it out of anger, embarrassment, or most appropriately shame? If you think what you’re doing is right, why are you trying to hide the evidence? 👀

For over 300 years now, it is a bedrock principle in Anglo-American constitutionalism that obedience is owed according only to law. Refusal to follow an illegal command is not only a moral choice but an absolute duty.

The Trump admin submitted a sworn declaration under oath that Costa Rica had changed its mind and would no longer take Mr. Abrego.

Costa Rica has now said publicly that that this is false, that they have not changed their position at all, and that they will still take him.
Unpacked:
In Aug., Govt said if Abrego pled guilty he could go to Costa Rica, where he's okay with going. Abrego said no to plea. Govt now wants to send him to Liberia. Why not Costa Rica? Govt told judge Thurs that Costa Rica wouldn’t take him anymore. @mariasacchetti exposed them.
Costa Rica will accept Abrego, per @washingtonpost.com .
If true, DOJ, DHS, and Dept of State caused lies to be disseminated to Judge Xinis all day Thursday, where an ICE official testified about info sent him by Dept of State, claiming Costa Rica wouldn't take Abrego.

"Racial disparity" is the passive voice of "widespread discrimination" 😐

It's a bit like calling a shooting an example of bulletwound disparity.

But in general the idea that it’s not racism and misogyny leading to Black women being fired but a general support for the Democratic Party is some mighty powerful navel gazing.

All of it is engineered. Crisis narratives. Repetition. Dehumanization. Manufactured panic. Understanding the pattern is how we disarm it. Stay focused. Stay grounded in truth.

We are seeing this admin over and over again decide to target people who have become technically deportable through no fault of their own other than government delay.

Why? One reason is because they’re the compliant ones who are easy targets for an admin who wants quick boosts in arrest numbers.

Totally believable situation here. System crashes can happen to anyone, especially when the system has evidence that can incriminate you.

"[They said] “we don’t have the resources” to keep preserving surveillance footage"

Apparently the Billions from the BigUglyBill just didn't stretch that far.

I cannot overemphasize that Marjorie Taylor Greene, Carlson, and Fuentes see a 2028 path to victory that involves building an isolationist populist coalition that traffics heavily in antisemitism and exploits existing negative sentiment against Israel.

We have to be SHARP on the left right now.
