Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents have in recent days deported the Cuban-born mother of a 1-year-old girl — separating them indefinitely — and three children ages 2, 4 and 7 who are U.S. citizens along with their Honduran-born mothers, their lawyers said Saturday.
The three cases raise questions about who is being deported, and why, and come amid a battle in federal courts over whether President Donald Trump’s immigration crackdown has gone too far and too quickly at the expense of fundamental rights.
Lawyers in the cases described how the women were arrested at routine check-ins at ICE offices, given virtually no opportunity to speak with lawyers or their family members and then deported within three days or less.
I know I’ve been saying that Trump is just barely staying on the side of legal, even if he is stretching the boundary. However, I’m pretty sure deporting a citizen is illegal
Does legal even matter if no one wants to enforce it?
Yeah, well. That’s when the judiciary starts appointing people to enforce things - a seldom executed action as usually the US Marshalls are good with that
I’m sure this administration wouldn’t go after judges, oh wait. We’re fucked.
Regime, not administration.
This is what the “pro-life”, “think of the children” people voted for.
I like to call them those cunts
@MicroWave The one child has metastatic cancer and was not permitted to contact her doctor for medication or anything. This is abduction.
@MicroWave Another MAGA win! More lives fucked up! Exactly what they voted for!
Don’t say we didn’t warn you. Seen it all before. Ever heard of #brexshit?
I’m surprised they didn’t round up the kids regardless and put them in cages. Isn’t that what ICE do?
