"Immigration raids are causing widespread alarm in Southern California’s Asian ethnic hubs, with businesses and popular gathering spots seeing less foot traffic as people avoid potential run-ins with federal agents.

Advocates with the South Asian Network, a non-profit based in Artesia, say the city’s Little India district is getting noticeably fewer visitors, as are local temples."

The judge suggested that the #DOJ & #DHS could work out between themselves whether the government’s priority is to try him on the criminal charges or deport him. No date has been set for the trial.

Will Allensworth, an assistant federal public defender representing #KilmarAbregoGarcia at the detention hearing, told Holmes that “it’s not necessarily accurate that he would be immediately deported.”

CBP agents assault an immigrant!
“In a graphic video that has since gone viral on social media, about 7 or more masked men wearing US Border Patrol vests are seem🚨violently detaining a Santa Ana father before forcing him into the back of an unmarked car.

Family members ID’ed the victim as Narciso Barranco, a father to three sons who are all US Marines.”

“We saw #ICE agents on farms, pointing assault rifles at cows, and removing half the workforce.”

These immigration raids are impacting red states & red areas of the country,
& everyone in the nation depends on the immigrant WF for their food. Yet most GOP MOC aren’t calling on Trump to stop detaining & deporting hard-working undocumented #immigrants.

i'm confused that the headline going around about this incident appears to be "Area Man Overheard ICE Agents High Fiving Over Body Counts" and not "Masked ICE Agents Shatter Area Man's Car Window, Drag Him Onto the Street by Force, and Then Arrest an American Citizen Just for Filming It"

Whether domestically on the streets of LA, or internationally in the skies of Iran, everything was coming up war this June in the Pig Empire, and the The Skinny as usual was there to break it all down for you.

The Skinny: To Live and Lie in LA

“The fascist Trumpenreich regime is actively working to criminalize its political opposition, and acclimatize the American public to images of Democratic officials being led away in handcuffs for opposing the mighty God Emperor Trump or his fascist agenda. This isn’t about conviction rates, or whether or not any of these cases go to trial; although I should point out that the absurd assault charges against Rep. LaMonica McIver are still outstanding. This is about sending a message to both Democrat politicians opposing the fascist mass deportation program, and the American people, and that message is “do not cross the Swine Emperor, because anyone who does is definitely a criminal.”

"Noem isn’t doing homeland #security. I’m not sure she knows its meaning. Like habeas corpus, which she thinks is an Ecuadorian offshoot of MS-13. Instead of safety and security, Noem’s turned the agency into the rabid attack dog she wanted Cricket to be"

"I've obtained new nonpublic data from ICE that shows that 2/3 of the ppl it'd booked into #detention FACs this fiscal year had no criminal convictions at all.⚡<7% have violent convictions. Most: for IMM, traffic, & vice offenses.

Every time you hear #DHS say: anyone who objects to #ICE's mass deportation campaign is pro-violent felons, understand:🚨those violent convicts <7% of its work for this yr. It's misleading the public..."

"DHS says his claims “will be heard by a judge” BUT THEY'RE LYING. They arrested him with the goal of putting him into expedited removal:🚨deportation WITHOUT A JUDGE.

I think #DHS is also wrong and/or deliberately lying about the idea that they don’t have evidence he worked with US troops."

"Sayed’s brother was granted asylum using the exact same doc that Sayed provided.💔The judge was ready to set a date for his asylum hearing so he had been vetted."

#Deprotations #USPol

#DHS has imposed new limits on visits by MOC/staff to #ICE FACs. New guidance requires: hrs notice.

Current law: MOC can make unannounced visits to conduct oversight at ICE FACs *no prior notice.

DHS indicated: intends to stretch this notice period to 1 wk.🚨Plenty of time for #DHS to cover up its💔abuses, move detainees, remediate poor conds... Ppl, incl wrongfully detained US citizens, would be left to suffer at the hands of unaccountable officials.

Martinez, a citizen & Walmart employee, saw BP agents taking a worker cleaning the shopping center parking lot in Pico Rivera.

Video shows an agent rushing him & shoving him to the ground... exchanging words w a masked officer carrying a rifle -other agents swarm him & push him back down, then drag him to their truck.

“He’s a f— hard worker,” Martinez can be heard yelling -he was forcibly arrested.

Punching the BP agent -not clear on the video.
