Here are some ICE flight guards wobbling dangerously as they carry an elderly/disabled migrant down aircraft stairs to a wheelchair on Thursday.

Airline crews are trained to transport nonambulatory people in a safe and dignified manner, and this is not that!

Later when a guard pushes his wheelchair, he does it while “popping a wheelie” the whole time. Why? So the migrant’s leg irons don’t drag on the ground.

Yes. He can’t walk, but he’s still shackled.

In late 2020 a Chinese man called Guan Heng travelled to Xinjiang with our BuzzFeed map of detention facilities to provide ground truth for our work - he provided the first corroborating evidence for many sites.

He escaped to the US - then ICE detained him.

Heng Guan is awaiting an immigration hearing on Monday that could lead to his removal from the U.S. and ultimately land him back in China, according to his lawyer and a New York-based activist group.

Chavarria, a U.S. citizen, was held at the airport "for more than four hours and released only after he finally agreed to let the agents search his smartphone, tablet, and laptop computer. The agents...informed him that he had no Fourth Amendment right to resist." @pacificlegal.bsky.social is suing.
CBP agents held this U.S. citizen for hours until he agreed to let them search his electronic devices
A federal lawsuit argues that perusing travelers' personal data without a warrant or probable cause violates the Fourth Amendment.

They're using the confinement box, one of the most horrific methods of CIA torture in the post-9/11 black sites, against migrants now. This is the direct result of the lack of consequences for the architects of the torture program. Either there will be criminal penalties for this or it will expand.

ICE detain U.S. citizen for 24 hours—mock Somali woman's hijab & touch her inappropriately.

"She was pleading with them—but they ended up sexually assaulting her," said cousin.

Agents had jumped out of 2 cars & zip tied her hands while she was running errands at the mall.

People have largely tried to act like ICE/CBP failed and retreated from LA and that is completely untrue. If it weren’t for the relentless coverage of places like @lataco.bsky.social these stories would be completely under the radar.
ICE has been raiding my neighborhood and surrounding ones for the last couple of weeks now. They commandeered my local church (against the pastor's will) for a staging site and raided supermarkets, parks, Goodwills, bus stops, you name it.

The national media's been silent. So has @mayor.lacity.gov.
Engagement on our updates re: ICE kidnappings/fed siege of Los Angeles is significantly lower on Bluesky compared to Twitter. Do ppl on here not care about LA anymore? Are feeds being taken over by liberal commentators? What's going on?

And they aren't doing this in the outskirts. Reports of raids happening in neighborhoods in the center of L.A., maybe a mile or two from city hall. None of it is being done in an attempt to be out of sight.
