ICE officers arrested 54-year-old Julio Noriega and moved him into a van before he could explain himself, he said. He spent several hours in an ICE processing center before officers checked his wallet and realized he is a U.S. citizen.

Immigrants claiming their detention is illegal have filed more than 18,000 challenges in federal court.
The cases, known as habeas petitions, total more than were filed under the last three administrations combined, including Trump’s first term.

Something we shouldn't allow ourselves to forget or unsee as the Roberts Supreme Court invents legal fictions to provide cover for Donald Trump as he rounds up and deports immigrants who are afforded no due process:
The Roberts Supreme Court is controlled by a bloc of right-wing "pro-life" Catholics, Roberts himself included in their number.

Since taking office, #Trump has moved aggressively to revoke the temporary legal status of hundreds of thousands of #immigrants who were allowed into the country under President #Biden.
Now, the admin is taking drastic steps to pressure some of those immigrants & others who had legal status to “self-deport” by effectively canceling the #SocialSecurity numbers they had lawfully obtained….

A #RealityShow where #immigrants compete for US #citizenship? #DHS is considering it.
DHS is considering taking part in a #RealityTV program that would have immigrants go through a series of challenges to get American citizenship, ofcls said Friday.

"Despite whatever is rattling around [Stephen] Miller's febrile cabeza, habeas corpus is not a revocable privilege. It is a right guaranteed to everyone incarcerated. In calling it a 'privilege' that 'could be suspended' to suit the whims of his boss, Miller proves himself to be a traitor not only to the American idea, but also to the freaking Magna Carta (!),"

The “Invasion” Invention: The Far Right’s Long Legal Battle to Make Immigrants the Enemy
The #Trump administration is using the claim that #immigrants have “invaded” the country to justify possibly suspending habeas corpus, part of the constitutional right to due process.
A faction of the far right has been building this case for years.

Lisa Tate, a Ventura County, California, farmer talks about what's happening on farms in that county, where fruit and vegetables are grown to supply the whole country:
“'In the fields, I would say 70% of the workers are gone,' she said in an interview. 'If 70% of your workforce doesn’t show up, 70% of your crop doesn’t get picked and can go bad in one day.'"

"Adam Boyd, a 33-year-old attorney who resigned from ICE’s legal department last month, told me he left because the mission was no longer about protecting the homeland from threats. 'It became a contest of how many deportations could be reported to Stephen Miller by December,' Boyd said. ...
'I had to make a moral decision,' he told me."
