Migrants at a Miami immigration prison have been compelled to kneel to eat food from styrofoam plates “like dogs,” with their hands tied behind their backs.

These ICE officials need to go straight to The Hague.

Migrants at a Miami immigration jail were shackled with their hands tied behind their backs and made to kneel to eat food from styrofoam plates “like dogs”, according to a report published on Monday into conditions at three overcrowded south Florida facilities. The incident at the downtown federal detention center is one of a succession of alleged abuses at Immigration and Customs Enforcement Agency (Ice) operated jails in the state since January, chronicled by advocacy groups Human Rights Watch, Americans for Immigrant Justice, and Sanctuary of the South from interviews with detainees.

Migrant women at the Krome ICE prison in Miami were forced to use the bathroom in full view of men prisoners.

Degrading treatment by guards is commonplace in all three jails, the groups say. At the Krome North service processing center in west Miami, female detainees were made to use toilets in full view of men being held there, and were denied access to gender-appropriate care, showers, or adequate food.

Columbia just expelled or suspended 80 students for protesting in favor of Palestinian rights. Suspended students can only be readmitted if they "apologize"--otherwise the suspension converts to an expulsion.

These are the Afghans that American promised to help, and Trump is sending back to the Taliban.
www.washingtonpost.com/world/2025/0...
The Afghans include: A woman whose husband the Taliban regime killed after he fought alongside the U.S. military. A man who worked with NATO in Afghanistan, then spent nearly a year living like a “prisoner” in Qatar. A woman in Pakistan whose young son was killed while she waited for the U.S. to process her asylum claim.
