⚡💙 "A federal judge in California has issued a nationwide block on #ICE's policy of conducting arrests at immigration courthouses.

This is *not* a nationwide injunction — largely barred by the Supreme Court’s CASA decision last year — but a determination that ICE’s policy🚨was so unreasonable it must be “vacated” under the Administrative Procedure Act. SCOTUS explicitly left this option available.

“…
• DeFlock can generate routes that avoid known [Automated License Plate Readers] ALPR cameras entirely.
• Users can choose how far they want to stay from surveillance cameras.
• The tool arrives as scrutiny of license plate readers continues to grow.
For years, automated license plate readers have quietly spread across America. They sit on utility poles, at intersections, near shopping centers, and along roads most drivers use every day. The overwhelming majority of motorists never notice them. A free website called DeFlock changes that by showing where many of those cameras are located and, more importantly, helping users avoid them if they choose. In a world where surveillance is often invisible, that’s a surprisingly powerful feature…”
--
“Automated License Plate Readers (ALPRs or LPRs) are AI-powered cameras that capture and analyze images of all passing vehicles, storing details like your car's location, date, and time. They also capture your car's make, model, colour, and identifying features such as dents, roof racks, and bumper stickers, often turning these into searchable data points.
These cameras collect data on millions of vehicles regardless of whether the driver is suspected of a crime. These systems are marketed as indispensable tools to fight crime, but they ignore the powerful tools police already have to track criminals, such as cell phone location data, creating a loophole that doesn't require a warrant…”

Children can now be put in camps. The far-right cheers and chants "send them back" after the vote on the 'return regulation'. This is not our Europe.

The whole crisis narrative has gone too far.

The Europe we believe in and fight for is all about human rights and dignity. We should return to those values.

Join the fight for a different Europe!

An open-air video recording features Anna Strolenberg, MEP Volt Europa. She speaks outside the European Parliament building in Strasbourg. A lively protest surrounds her. Interspersed throughout her speech are video cutaways showing a crowded EP session, followed by intense, high-contrast clips of police and ICE-style immigration officers in tactical gear. Transcription: "We are here outside of the European Parliament to protest against the new returns law. In this law, all humanity is lost. What is going to happen is that people who get rejected, who do not get an asylum status, will be treated as criminals. The police can go to people's homes or workplaces to catch them, detain them before they lock them up for two and a half years or return them to a country where they have not set a foot in. And let's be honest, these are the practices that we see happening in the US. It's ICE-style practices and I'm worried about this. I think all humanity is lost. We have gotten so obsessed with this crisis narrative that now only rules that are harsher, harsher, harsher will work out. I think that's a problem. And these people here are afraid of what will happen. They are labor inspectors and they're afraid that now they have to report people if they meet someone who doesn't have documents. This is setting people up against each other. I think the whole crisis narrative has gone too far. The EU is all about human rights and dignity. We should return to those values."

"Their mothers and fathers have been deported or locked for months inside detention centers, often miles away from where their families live. These children are separated, sometimes violently, from the adults they depend on...As a result, a generation of children from immigrant families are exhibiting mental health problems that could affect them for years."

Will Bunch: "The indictment of the Minneapolis 15 — a so-called “conspiracy” that included innocuous acts of dissent like discussing ICE activities on the Signal app or publishing an article on a pro-anarchist website — and the chemical assault against citizens exercising their free-speech rights are all the same instinct from a violently repressive government.

"They want you to shut up. They want you to stay in your home. And they want to make you very afraid — five months before an election that they are practically screaming they plan to do everything in their dictatorial powers to steal."

In its latest attempt at repression, Trump's DOJ has charged 15 #minneapolis area anti #ICE activists with conspiracy to injure or impede a federal officer. 13 are in custody and have arraignments shortly this afternoon.

The US Attorney for MN's press conference minutes ago was high on hyperbole, low on actual accusations. Part of their powerpoint presentation included a dramatic pause on a social media page featuring this image from the 2020 uprising, owned as a tshirt or sticker by pretty much every Minneapolis leftist.

Reading through the indictment, much of the alleged evidence comes merely from signal chats. Even corporate reporters at the press conference challenged the narrative, with questions about the high failure rate of DOJ charges in Minnesota this year and other misconduct by the federal attorney's office brushed off dismissively.

Four of the defendants face additional charges. One of them regards an incident in which an ICE agent brake-checked the defendant in their car, causing a crash. Community support for these defendants - like the many others who have both defeated and are still fighting federal charges from the ongoing ICE occupation of MN - is shaping up to be swift and strong.

"Welcome to Minneapolis!" a postcard style black and white drawing with those words above a cartoon of the 3rd precinct police station on fire.

"Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) appears to be purchasing records related to immigrants’ tax identifiers from a data broker, potentially skirting a court order that banned ICE from sourcing such information, according to Senator Ron Wyden and government procurement records reviewed by 404 Media.

The contract, worth nearly $10 million, is related to ITINs, or Individual Taxpayer Identification Numbers, which is the identifier many undocumented people use to file their taxes rather than a Social Security number (SSN).

“It looks for all the world like Trump is trying to skirt the law and a court order to fuel his mass-deportation campaign,” Senator Wyden told 404 Media in an emailed statement after reviewing the procurement records. “A court has already struck down an agreement between the IRS and Homeland Security to illegally share ITINs and other personal information.

A contract to buy that same information from private data brokers is a clear end-around both taxpayer privacy laws and a court order.”"

“The opinion of the forensic pathologist in this case is that Ms. Michel was a vulnerable adult, suffering from untreated severe #MentalHealth issues & a significant #LanguageBarrier when she was released from federal custody on February 27,” Jim Madalinsky, the county’s public information officer, said in a statement. “Based on all available information during the investigation, the pathologist ruled Ms. Michel’s death a #homicide.”

Over the course of 3 days, Michel appears to have never left that bench, said her family’s attorney, who viewed the security footage & shared stills with WaPo. She had a history of untreated mental health issues & sat staring as people passed by, a plastic bag with her belongings, including a cellphone, placed beside her.

By March 2, the Haitian woman was no longer sitting. The last image captured in the footage, according to the attorney, shows her lying on the ground. Emergency responders arrived at the scene & transferred Michel to a hospital, where she died that day.

It was at least the second death this year involving an individual who was released by federal #immigration authorities & died days later of complications related to hypothermia.

How Hackers Are Fighting Back Against ICE

‚ICE has been invading U.S. cities, targeting, surveilling, harassing, assaulting, detaining, and torturing people who are undocumented immigrants. They also have targeted people with work permits, asylum seekers, permanent residents (people holding “green cards”), naturalized citizens, and even citizens by birth. ICE has spent hundreds of millions of dollars on surveillance technology to spy on anyone—and potentially everyone—in the United States. It can be hard to imagine how to defend oneself against such an overwhelming force.

But a few enterprising hackers have started projects to do counter surveillance against ICE, and hopefully protect their communities through clever use of technology….‘

The Zine from 404media About ICE Surveillance Is Here!

"You are holding a zine about the surveillance tools used by ICE, and what we have learned so far about how you can resist this technology.

This zine was reported and written by 404 Media, a journalist-owned investigative website and now, we suppose, a print publication. Our status as a small outfit of reporters who own the means of production (a website), means that we have the freedom to report on the topics we believe are the most important. For the last year, that has been Donald Trumpʼs mass deportation
campaign, and the technology powering it."

While everyone is distracted by the scripted ICE theater the counter-reformation unification of Roman Church and state proceeds stealthily. Rome's agents are slowly converting America to the Imperial Roman religion. This is the true goal of so-called 'Christian Nationalism': the forcible conversion of America to Roman imperial Christianity, a la Constantine and Justinian.

From his bully pulpit the President is proclaiming Imperial Roman religion about their Roman moon goddess Mary, also known as Minerva, Venus, Easter, Astarte, Semiramis, and Isis.

Presidential Message on the Feast of the Immaculate Conception

"In her honor, and on a day so special to our Catholic citizens, we remember the sacred words that have brought aid, comfort, and support to generations of American believers in times of need: Hail, Mary, full of grace, the Lord is with thee. Blessed art thou among women and blessed is the fruit of thy womb, Jesus. Holy Mary, Mother of God, pray for us sinners, now and at the hour of our death. Amen."
