So Tulsi Gabbards administration ordered the fabrication of evidence in order to justify the illegal imprisonment of Venezuelans https://www.yahoo.com/news/leak-shows-gabbard-goon-secretly-102159643.html top aide to Tulsi Gabbard quietly ordered officials to rewrite a damaging intelligence assessment so it couldn’t be “used against” Donald Trump. The emails from Joe Kent, the chief of staff to the director of national intelligence, were published by The New York Times on Tuesday, days after the newspaper reported that he had pressured officials to scrap a Feb. 26 assessment that found the Trump administration had no legal basis to deport Venezuelan migrants without due process. The original analysis reportedly contradicted the Trump administration’s claim that the Tren de Aragua gang is controlled by the Venezuelan government and has been ordered to commit crimes inside the United States. To shield the administration from political blowback, Kent allegedly urged edits to the report. “We need to do some rewriting” and more analytic work “so this document is not used against the DNI or POTUS,” “Let’s just come out and say TDA leaders are given sanctuary in Venezuela as their gang members commit horrendous crimes in America"
For what appears to be the first time, Donald Trump’s administration will “facilitate” the return of a “wrongfully” deported immigrant following a court order. A gay Guatemalan man referred to as “O.C.G” in court documents says he survived sexual violence and kidnapping in Mexico on his way to the southern border last year. But federal immigration authorities failed to screen him for a credible fear assessment before deporting him back to the same country where he was raped and held for ransom. Last week, District Judge Brian Murphyordered the administration to “facilitate” his return — echoing court orders in two other high-profile immigration cases involving “wrongfully” deported immigrants. “In general, this case presents no special facts or legal circumstances, only the banal horror of a man being wrongfully loaded onto a bus and sent back to a country where he was allegedly just raped and kidnapped,” Murphy wrote.
If only Trump the Traitor could be deported to some 3rd world country prison, to get a taste of his own medicine. He's committed much bigger crimes than the majority of the people he's labelling “rapists,” “savages,” “monsters” and “the worst of the worst.” Trump Administration Knew Vast Majority of Venezuelans Sent to Salvadoran Prison Had Not Been Convicted of U.S. Crimes The Trump administration knew that the vast majority of the 238 Venezuelan immigrants it sent to a maximum-security prison in El Salvador in mid-March had not been convicted of crimes in the United States before it labeled them as terrorists and deported them President Donald Trump and his aides have branded the Venezuelans as “rapists,” “savages,” “monsters” and “the worst of the worst.” Officials knew that only 32 of the deportees had been convicted of U.S. crimes and that most were nonviolent offenses, such as retail theft or traffic violations. The data indicates that the government knew that only six of the immigrants were convicted of violent crimes. More than half, or 130, of the deportees were not labeled as having any criminal convictions or pending charges; they were labeled as only having violated immigration laws. As for foreign offenses, our own review of court and police records from around the United States and in Latin American countries where the deportees had lived found evidence of arrests or convictions for 20 of the 238 men. ProPublica and the Tribune, along with Venezuelan media outlets Cazadores de Fake News (Fake News Hunters) and Alianza Rebelde Investiga (Rebel Alliance Investigates), also obtained lists of alleged gang members that are kept by Venezuelan law enforcement officials and the international law enforcement agency Interpol. Those lists include some 1,400 names. None of the names of the 238 Venezuelan deportees matched those on the lists. Hours before the immigrants were loaded onto airplanes in Texas for deportation, the Trump administration invoked the Alien Enemies Act of 1798, declaring that the Tren de Aragua prison gang had invaded the United States, aided by the Venezuelan government. DHS Assistant Secretary Tricia McLaughlin largely repeated previous public statements. She insisted, without providing evidence, that the deportees were dangerous, saying, “These individuals categorized as ‘non-criminals’ are actually terrorists, human rights abusers, gang members and more — they just don’t have a rap sheet in the U.S.” https://www.propublica.org/article/trump-el-salvador-deportees-criminal-convictions-cecot-venezuela
Apparently 1.illegal immigrant status 2.race 3.fake gender 4.hate for Jewish people 5.obesity are more important than the person’s crime(s) @basso @pgabriel
This has long been my issue. You can eliminate every tariff levied against Mexico, and if we paid these migrants legal or illegal a fair wage. We would be paying the same in the end. Higher labor costs = Higher goods costs. Do Americans as a whole feel sympathetic enough to shell out the extra cash for goods and services so these workers can have a normal standard of life. Keep folks working at below poverty level wages orpay a fair wage? That my friends is the 20,000-dollar question
An athlete, a musician, an exceptional high school student with an infectious smile. This is how community members in Milford, Massachusetts, described Marcelo Gomes Da Silva, an 18-year-old high school junior who was arrested by immigration authorities and sent to a detention center this weekend. Gomes Da Silva was driving his father's car on his way to volleyball practice with some of his teammates Saturday morning when immigration authorities stopped him. Immigration authorities made the traffic stop because they were looking for Gomes Da Silva’s father, who is unlawfully present in the country, according to Todd Lyons, acting director of U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement. After learning Gomes Da Silva was also unlawfully present in the U.S., ICE officers took him into custody, Lyons said Monday at a news conference. Gomes Da Silva was born in Brazil but has attended Milford Public Schools since he was 6 years old, friends said. Though “he was not the target of the investigation,” he was arrested during a monthlong immigration enforcement operation in Massachusetts that has resulted in the arrests of nearly 1,500 immigrants, Boston's ICE Field Officer Patricia H. Hyde said at the news conference. "When we go out into the community and we find others who are unlawfully here, we are going to arrest them," Hyde said. "We’ve been completely transparent with that.” An ICE spokesperson told NBC News in an email statement Monday afternoon that Gomes Da Silva "remains in ICE custody pending removal proceedings.” In addition to Gomes Da Silva, a number of parents and school community members have been detained by ICE in recent weeks, according to Kevin McIntyre, superintendent of Milford Public Schools. “We are all distraught by this news,” McIntyretold NBC Boston in a statement, adding that Milford Public Schools plays no part in immigration enforcement and supports all students and their families, including those who are immigrants. “They are members of the community, students in our classrooms, athletes that compete representing Milford, musicians, artists, friends and neighbors,” the superintendent continued. “We will do everything in our power to support our students and families during these difficult times.” A teammate of Gomes Da Silva who was in the car when they were pulled over by four vehicles and witnessed the ICE arrest Saturday texted their high school volleyball coach at around 8:30 a.m. “I was sitting there thinking, ‘This can’t be happening,’” Andrew Mainini, the volleyball coach, told NBC Boston. "It’s one thing to see things happening in the world. It’s another to have them directly impact the people you work with and care for on a daily basis.” Gomes Da Silva was supposed to play the drums at his girlfriend's high school graduation Sunday. His absence was palpable during Milford High School’s commencement as his bandmates performed without him, sparking a post-graduation protest demanding his release. Hundreds of students still in their graduation gowns, teachers, relatives and other community members marched a mile to Milford Town Hall following the commencement ceremony — holding signs and chanting "Free Marcelo." Julianys Rentas Figueroa, Gomes Da Silva’s girlfriend, said she spoke with him on the phone after he was detained Saturday. He told her immigration authorities "put chains around his ankles, on his wrists," Rentas Figueroa, still in her red graduation gown, told NBC Boston on Sunday. "I haven't spoken to him since then. I don't know how he's doing." "I don't understand why Marcelo was targeted. He's been in Milford all his life," Rentas Figueroa said. Rentas Figueroa said Gomes Da Silva was transferred into two different holding facilities in Massachusetts over the weekend. Diego Low, director of Metrowest Worker Center, an immigration advocacy group in Massachusetts, told NBC News that cousins of Gomes Da Silva had contacted the center after his detention. "We are trying to support him," Low said, adding that immigration attorneys are interceding on the family's behalf to prevent Gomes Da Silva from being transferred to a detention center in another state. Ana Julia Araujo, Gomes Da Silva's cousin, said the 18-year-old's younger siblings are questioning if they will ever him again. Milford police said it was not involved, claiming ICE did not notify the department of the arrest. "Marcelo is somebody that we don't know. So, what does that tell you? If I don't know you, if my officers don't know you, there's a reason we don't know you. It's because you're probably not a troublemaker," Chief Robert Tusino told NBC Boston. Gov. Maura Healey said in a statement over the weekend that she is "disturbed and outraged" by Gomes Da Silva’s detention, adding that arrests like these are "making us all less safe." During Sunday's protest, a friend of Gomes Da Silva who participated in the march told NBC Boston, "I am disgusted that I have to deal with this on graduation and see one of my greatest friends be taken away for no reason." "I just pray that we can make a difference because this is so depressing," the girl, who was not named, said in tears.
