  6. DACA recipients are considered "lawfully present" but are not granted "legal status." This distinction means they have temporary protection, but no direct path to a Green Card or citizenship unless they find an entirely separate legal pathway. This high-profile case shows how precarious that protection is.

  7. Gov #JBPritzker is directing the state’s Dept of Child & Family Services & the Dept of Human Services to evaluate how #children were treated during an aggressive #immigration raid on a South Shore apartment building this week….

    #DHS said federal agents with #BorderPatrol, the #FBI, & the #ATF arrested at least 37 people in the raid, making it one of the largest operations executed since the start of “Operation Midway Blitz” on Sept 8.

  8. Brandon Lee, spox for the #Illinois Coalition for #Immigrant & #Refugee Rights, said the group was working to identify those taken in the raid.
    “It was a #violent show of force in the middle of the night,” Lee said. “Taking #families out of an apartment building in a residential neighborhood like that is harmful, is #traumatic, & that is not something that people can easily recover from, whether they themselves were taken or whether they witnessed it.”

  9. “It was heartbreaking to watch,” said Watson. “Even if you’re not a mother, seeing #kids coming out buck #naked & taken from their #mothers, it was horrible.”

    Watson said she went into the building to help one of the residents & was shocked by what she saw.

    “Stuff was everywhere,” said Watson. “You could see people’s #BirthCertificates, & papers thrown all over. Water was leaking into the hallway. It was wicked crazy.”

  10. In the South Shore raid, neighbors said federal agents used #flashbang #grenades to burst through the building & several #drones & helicopters were deployed.

    Ebony Sweets Watson, who lives across the street, said it “looked like hundreds” of agents were outside her front door.
    Watson said she saw agents dragging residents, including #kids, out of the
    building without any clothes on & into U-Haul vans. Kids were #separated from their mothers, she said.

  16. JV #Vance on #FnS ridicules those saying "Family Separation Policy", saying parents in the country illegally may be #deported [leaving their family behind.]

    But the #FamilySeparation controversy isn't about "deporting a single parent", it's KIDNAPPING THEIR CHILDREN AS THEY CROSS, and possibly deporting their CITIZEN CHILDREN with them.

    A half-dozen other lies/spin I'll try to cover later.

    Vance is going to be #OrangeHitler's #SpinMaster for the next 4 years. 😒

  18. @LaNaehForaday Maybe NBPC and USBP should’ve gone to tfg when he decided not to allow the border bill to pass, which would’ve helped them tremendously. More agents, more money, more judges to adjudicate asylum claims. But no, they’ve decided to stick with tfg so screw them. #Biden finally signed EO’s signed deal with Panama to stop crossings at Darien Pass & illegal crossings at record low even during tfg and his ugly #familyseparation #FascistHoman #AssylumIsLegal #USBP #uspol

  19. MSNBC bought Errol Morris's new documentary about Trump's forced family separation at the border. But they won't air it until *after* the election -- because they don't want to offend Donald Trump.

    "Rebecca Blumenstein, president of editorial for NBC News, opposed airing 'Separated' before the election because the network still hopes Trump will agree to another presidential debate."

    🤬 Fucking outrageous! 🤬

  30. #Texas & 15 other #Republican-led states sued the #Biden admin on Friday seeking to halt a new program that could give #legal status to hundreds of thousands of #undocumented #immigrants who are #married to #UScitizens.

    Filed just days after the program opened for applications, the lawsuit is the latest in a string of legal actions Texas has led challenging federal #immigration policies & #FederalPower.

  31. 16 #Republican States Sue to End Program for Undocumented #Spouses of US Citizens

    The new #Biden admin initiative, which could put many #undocumented spouses of Americans on a path to #citizenship, began taking applications this wk.

    The program, announced June 18 by #POTUS, marked one of the most expansive actions to assist undocumented #immigrants since #DACA was enacted 12yrs ago.

  32. …Another expected attendee Thurs night is #RodneyScott, who served as #BorderPatrol chief during Trump’s last yr in office & has defended #ZeroTolerance by arguing that it was effective in slowing down migration.…Scott explored the idea of placing buoys in the #RioGrande to deter migrants years before #Texas actually did it.

  33. #TomHoman now heads #Border911, a *nonprofit* that warns of the supposed threat posed by undocumented immigrants.

    On Thurs, #Trump is set to see him at a Mar-a-Lago gala hosted by #Border911. …The gathering will also include #MattWhitaker, who served as chief of staff at the #DOJ when it implemented #ZeroTolerance. Later, when Whitaker testified before Congress as *acting AG, he conceded there was NO PLAN to REUNITE FAMILIES.

  34. The policy was a key component of the #Trump admin’s efforts to curb unauthorized #immigration. #Children were systematically taken from their parents & sent to shelters & foster homes across the country, & parents were #criminally charged for entering the country unlawfully.

    The objective was to deliver a powerful “deterrent” to families planning to come to the #UnitedStates, even those seeking #asylum.
