I hope he gets armed guards. ICE is a trafficking gang.

Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
- Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
- No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
That's all the rules!

This is why they aren't allowing due process, which would expose many more "mistakes". There's likely many more who were already sent to the El Salvador concentration camp than just Kilmar Abrego Garcia. For example, this poor guy. How many more?! 😠
This is why I said, the first time it happened with that immigration lawyer, she should have immediately brought it to a judge.
This will keep happening until there's some kind of court action.
And then it'll just keep happening because there is zero enforcement.
These aren't mistakes. The cheeseburger Gestapo are coming.
Fuck these fixing incompetent fascist.
Honestly as a American born Asian American, I'm just wondering when this will be happening to me.
Same. I was telling my wife I'm legitimately afraid to be walking around by myself now. I used to feel safe wherever I went and now I am always looking over my shoulder or scoping things out before I get out of my car...just to get groceries or something.
This is fucked.
Yup. I've told my wife that when they do come, I'm not one to go quietly.
Remember that 2A is for everyone, pepper spray is legal, and check your knife laws and your 1st amendment right to protest is still a thing.
I actually just got one of those relica practice pistols that uses CO2 cartridges to shoot pepper balls at up to 350fps.
It's non-lethal, but it'll still hurt a bit.
First they came for the ..
Doesn't matter when.
It will.
Unless you and everyone else start to speak up for the others.
First saw this pop up on LA local news IG account, knew something was up with all the trolling responses dominating. There's really no way to even report fake/suspiscious accounts over there. Very glad/relieved to see rational comments here.
they just open the database and search for "gomez"
If I were a judge, him using “I'm not trying to be…” would be all the evidence I’d need to prove he’s an American citizen. They must think I’m Boo Boo the Fool if they deport that man.
I read that the reason this happens is that immigrants use their lawyers’ email when filling out immigration forms instead of using their own email.
If that's the case, why is the email addressed to him and not one of his client's names? How would you even know which one it's supposed to be going to?
Looking at the body and subject in the scan of the printout of the email indicates they didn't specify his name.
His name appears in the To: line of the header, but without the opportunity to examine the raw headers of the email, I would assume that his mail client replaced his email address with his name for display purposes.
While there is certainly more than enough incompetence, it seems clear that it falls short of actually targeting him.
Failing to provide the name of the person in the body of the email is incomptetence.
Fox included the disclaimer about contact email... but IMO the person who built the mail merge was incompetent and that will not prevent ICE from coming after Aldo.
It is a huge mess. How can someone write a letter that does not contain the addressee? Let alone a letter that is threatening you to run away or else.
How can someone write a letter that does not contain the addressee?
It's easier to bulk send them this way. No need for a mail merge, just spam it out to everyone on your list. Efficiency!
This is not the happy timeline.
You're expecting competence from this administration?
Writing a letter is quite literally something you learn to do in second grade...knowing how to do that isn't remotely where the bar for competency is.
Not if cheeto is hiring.
I get your point, but YES we should expect competence. Don’t give up.
