"On 26 July, the day before #TPS holders lost their work permits, CBS News reported that #ICE was targeting Springfield for a ‘potential arrest and #deportation blitz’.
"Now the blitz has arrived – by post. Over the past two weeks, scores of #HaitianImmigrants have received ‘call-in’ letters summoning them to ICE offices near Cincinnati, more than an hour’s drive away."

Doesn't sound like the liberal bastion that has been #SanFrancisco's reputation for years.
What happened #SF?
This is just #fascism!
#Immigrants are treated like criminals.
People have a right to immigrate, and #asylumseekers in particular have a right by #internationallaw ( that thing that never gets enforced) to choose ANY country they want and that country MUST
allow them in the country. -

"A senior judge has accused the Home Office of relying on “AI hallucinated” information to refuse an asylum claim.
The case relates to a Moroccan woman and her child who fled her country after experiencing forced underage marriage and extreme violence, including rape. The woman claimed asylum on the basis of fears that she would be killed by her husband: a powerful, previously convicted criminal.
The Home Office refused her case, citing evidence from a supposedly independent and authoritative document known as a country policy information note (CPIN), which they said confirmed that Morocco would be safe for her.
But the document could not be found, although its existence was relied upon by a judge who rejected her appeal against the Home Office’s refusal decision in an immigration court known as the first-tier tribunal."

"When you plant a tree, it does not matter who you are or where you came from. Your hands are in the soil, and you belong to the planet as a human being. We don’t just plant trees. We plant belonging, and we plant purpose.”

"#Scandinavians in the upper Midwest, #AfricanAmericans clustered in the South and beyond, #MexicanAmericans in the Southwest, #Portuguese along the coast of New England, #Yemeni #immigrants and their descendants in Detroit, and #NativeAmericans living across a country that was once theirs.
“Much of what we see is a history of #immigration,” explain the authors, #AlbertSun, #JeffAdelson and #LarryBuchanan. The story accompanying the #map goes on to describe the ebbs and flows of the #migrant tide, including the surge at the turn of the 20th century and the current crackdown on #refugees, #asylumseekers and even naturalized citizens.
But zoom in on the map, and there’s a notable omission: #Jews. Hover over Manhattan, home to one of the largest #Jewish communities in the world, and you’ll find pockets where 20% or more of the residents are #Chinese, #PuertoRican, African American, #Dominican, #German and #Italian. Conspicuously, there is no heading for “Jewish.”

"Every day I'm more ashamed to live in this country
"Generosity": not the word I'd use for a levying a retroactive tax on people fleeing war and persecution, for the privilege of living in substandard conditions while politicians abuse them and strangers threaten to burn them out of their bedrooms"
TC Parker on Bluesky regarding Hauptgruppenfuhrerin Mahmood’s latest racist wheeze.
