In Atlanta, the George Floyd demonstrations of four years ago are being used as evidence of illegal gang activity — and the activists of today could be next. trib.al/qyPw0UQ

@ReichlinMelnick Only thing he’s right about is that it’s sad. They have to keep proposing these laws because they have no real good ideas how to improve our country, and can only stay in control by playing to ignorance and fear. Might as well run on a platform of making murder illegal.

It's already illegal for undocumented immigrants to vote in federal elections. It's so illegal that it's a felony, a ground of deportation, AND a near-permanent ban to receiving any future immigration benefit.

It’s sad that we have to propose and fight for legislation to ban illegal aliens from voting. But that’s what happens when Democrats allow millions to illegally cross into our country to try and rig our elections.

@ackocher @ReichlinMelnick @AILANational @NILC @the_ILRC I started in 2007 and there were tons of NTA for offenses from the 90s in those early years - many for agg fels that weren’t agg fels under prior law. Don’t see that now. Post conviction relief/better education of criminal consequences also lead to pleas that avoid removability.
English
@ackocher @ReichlinMelnick @AILANational @NILC @the_ILRC I strongly suspect you need a longer chart. I think you will see a post-1996 (IIRAIRA) acscent for those numbers and then the decease reflected here as past offenses lead to prosecution.

Can you explain this graph? Since ~2010, the number of criminal-related grounds for removal listed on NTAs has declined substantially. What are some plausible explanations? (I can't think of a few.) @ReichlinMelnick @AILANational @NILC @the_ILRC

There’s the legal contours of what is a “crime against humanity” but then there’s also the social intellectual weight of the phrase, its moral meaning. A crime against humanity.

@jarais Meanwhile, USCIS and the applicants are still drowning each other in Miller-era 60-page two-column single-space forms that no one has bothered to fix in the last three years...

@jarais Give them a break, it's like, 15 whole boxes to fill out AND a certificate of service over the course of 2-3 pages.

One of the biggest mysteries in the Matter of Castro Tum saga, for me, was why McHenry was hellbent on having the remanded hearing so quickly. Now we know. @MattArchambeau1

Speaker Johnson's letter names 5 things as evidence that Biden "undermined" the border:
- Ending Remain in Mexico
- Reinstating "catch and release"
- Suspending safe third country deals
- Misusing parole
- Stopping border wall
Here's a 🧵 on why he's wrong about each of these.

New: SPEAKER JOHNSON writes to President Biden urging him to “immediately take executive actions available to you under existing immigration laws to stem the record tide of illegal immigration”

Senate is working to overhaul the immigration system for the first time in two decades and to retreat from major human rights law that's been in place since the 50s. But the news we're talking about from Capitol Hill is that guy getting railed in a hearing room. I give up

🚨TIME IS RUNNING OUT🚨
TELL THE WHITE HOUSE THAT MASS DEPORTATIONS ARE UNACCEPTABLE!
At any moment, the White House could accept a plan that would lead to the largest expansion of detention and ICE enforcement in years.
ACT NOW ⬇️

Been doing this for over 20 yrs and still can’t wrap my head around the fact that what matters more in asylum law is what motivates the persecutor is more important than the harm bestowed upon the asylum seeker.

@hannahcrileyy Their behavior throughout this entire process seems like they are trying to demonstrate to the public the desperate need for better officer training. Like they will continue to comically fuck up and violate rights and make terrible leaps of logic until they get a new facility.

things that are terrifying beyond measure for Atlanta-area police:
- large puppetry
- music festivals
- respirators
- gardening tools
- people in tents
- empty glass bottles
- mutual aid
- elders in chairs
