The feds raided an East Chicago home, arrested a mother and her 26-year-old schizophrenic daughter. She's been here since she's 2. In ICE custody, she had no meds and chose to leave the country. Now she's in Mexico, barely speaks Spanish, and her family can't find her.

Hundreds of immigration cases in San Francisco have been closed for years, even decades, often b/c they are not an enforcement priority.

Many involve victims of crime & abuse.

This summer, Trump attorneys tried to bring them back.

Since the U.S. Refugee Program was created in 1980, it has admitted over two million people fleeing ethnic cleansing and other horrors. Now it will be used as a pathway for White immigration. What a downfall for a crown jewel of America's international humanitarian programs.

I know it’s too much to expect them to know their history, but if the American Revolution had a motto, it definitely would not have been “immigrants go home.”

It would have been “get your fucking soldiers out of our cities.”

Here's a photo of my friend and colleague, Jorge Bautista, getting shot in the face with a flashbang grenade. The ICE Agent is so afraid of Jorge (who was posing no threat) that he has wet himself. Please share this photo. Everyone needs to know what cowards ICE agents are.

this entire opinion is really remarkable, and Judge Young calls it exactly like it is when it comes to ICE hiding behind masks. We must not tolerate such an insidious assault on who we aspire to be as a nation.

It’s my sense that the majority of the U.S. electorate still has not internalized or is even aware of the fact that heavily armed government agents are now trawling around cities arresting people because they are brown / look Hispanic, and are saying so explicitly, to reporters
