My guess. This IJ will pretermit all the Somali cases and order them removed to Uganda.

Absolute destruction of the immigration system. No review of asylum denials by judges. Pro se folks will especially get screwed.

Exactly they can't control their client who keeps breaking the laws.

Not content with pulling down the White House, he will now pull down democracy around us. If we let him.

Yeah. They're awful. Can't they read the room? They have a majority of Americans furious at ICE and that is the demand?

So today while waiting with my client to be called at an ICE check in, we were cruelly subjected to an hour and half of Fox news in the waiting room. And client not arrested or detained, thank goodness. But Fox news what crap.

Schumer. When is he up for reelection? I can't wait

Didn't the Nazis in WWII issues amphetamines to their troops? There was a recent book about this.

Let's go back to pre 9/11 INS where the enforcement and benefits sections of the immigration agency were together and while there were occasional workplace raids, basically everyone followed the law and there was no BS that immigrants were criminals
The ideologues are off their leashes.

So I write to Schumer my senator and get back a BS email telling me that he's done great things. Just defund ICE.

Amazing thread. It really explains what we're experiencing. I guess I have been naive before not thinking they would unleash this here in the USA. Yet here we are.

Maduro was an anti democratic "leader". But America is going to "run Venezuela"?? Words fail.

I don't know. But Judge Mulligan is the first white male to be fired in NYC I think. All others women and one other guy Asian American. Could be a coincidence.

Two more good and decent immigration judges fired today from the NYC immigration court. I guess the plan is to pack the court with " judges" who will follow orders and not the law
Very depressing

And expert testimony regarding country conditions is merely anecdotal and can be disregarded. BIA unashamedly anti immigrant.

Exactly
Now an arrest= conviction. See lots of immigrants in our practice with arrests and dismissals
Just so happens a lot of POC get arrested and the charges get dismissed. ICE - big time criminals.

The Trump administration has made me a flagrant moralist in a way that has led me to tossing aside years of snark, and you know, I'm good with that. It's time to talk about what being a good person means; about why it's good to signal virtue, why it's good to press for values, not spectacle.

Six more immigration judges fired in NYC. Not newbies
Just fair adjudicators.

Chilling doesn't begin to describe it. The rule of law went out the window in Trump 2.0.

Anyone can give a gift link to the story in Sunday's New York Newsday about the arrests by ICE at the Beth page asylum office? It's another trap for unsuspecting immigrants who just want to have their cases heard.

What is a government for, if not to help and protect the citizens? Oh right, I forgot. It's to enrich the 1 percent.

Oh no and Mamdani said he'd keep her on
No good news for immigrant NYC.

As my immigrant clients have received their work permits one of the first things they do is get certified as home health aides. We need them in the workforce to help our elders and the disabled.
