#deportations

ICE, which was formed in response to the terror attacks on 11 September 2001, is a federal agency that enforces the United States' immigration laws by identifying and deporting people who breach such laws, as well as those who are viewed as a threat to national security. Since Trump returned to the White House for his second term, his administration has led a huge campaign to bolster the work of ICE and make good on his anti-immigration campaign promise to carry out mass deportations.

But a year later, it is clear to everyone that the Trump administration's stated mission of deporting the worst of the worst is entirely false. We have witnessed it firsthand for months on end at 26 Federal Plaza in Lower Manhattan, where masked ICE agents have stalked the hallways and ambushed law-abiding immigrants complying with court orders to attend hearings.

supercharging ICE,

was not an editorial decision, it was a political one.

The volume of the revocations reflects the broad nature of the crackdown Trump initiated when he returned to the White House last year. The administration has claimed to have overseen more than 2.5 million voluntary departures and deportations, a record-breaking achievement, it said last month. Some of those deportations, however, have included immigrants who held valid visas, raising questions about due process and human rights.

Our story was screened five times and cleared by both CBS attorneys and Standards and Practices. It is factually correct. In my view, pulling it now-after every rigorous internal check has been met is not an editorial decision, it is a political one.

The now infamous terrorism confinement centre, known as Cecot, is Latin America's largest prison with capacity for 40,000 inmates. In March, the Trump administration struck a deal with El Salvador to send there more than 250 Venezuelan migrants that it accused of accused of terrorism and gang membership. Horror stories have since emerged about abuse that they are alleged to have endured, with lawyers for some of the men who were later released describing the conditions as state-sanctioned torture.

She went inside, while her husband remained outside, but an unexpected message informed him that he, too, had to enter the building. At that moment, the officers told them that one of them was going to be deported, but that the couple had to choose who it would be. She said she would leave because he was the one who worked and supported the household. In the end, it was the mother who remained in the United States.

ICE Barbie was backed into another perjury corner after Rep. Dan Goldman (D-New York) her to confirm that immigrants with ongoing asylum cases are here legally. (As she affirmed, they are.) "If your department deports anyone with an ongoing asylum application, you are violating the law," Goldman then said. "But the problem that we are seeing around the country is that you are not following the law." Ouch.

That data also reveals that ICE arrests across Northern California have more than tripled this year. A Mission Local analysis of data released from the Deportation Data Project, a group of researchers based at the University of California, Berkeley, shows that 48 percent of the people arrested by ICE across Northern California in September had no criminal background, while 39 percent had a criminal conviction. The remaining 14 percent had pending criminal charges.

Speaking in the House of Commons, Mahmood said: "If we fail to deal with this crisis, we will draw more people down a path that starts with anger and ends in hatred." The reforms will make refugee status temporary, extend the wait for permanent settlement from five years to 20, and allow the removal of families with children who have no right to remain.

Wadephul said it was "in the understandable interest of the Syrian government to create the conditions for as many Syrians as possible to return". However, this was currently "only possible to a very limited extent, because a great deal of infrastructure in this country has been destroyed", he added. "Anyone who wants to return to Syria will be given a tearful send-off by us. But we will understand that perfectly well."

The initiative, part of a series of recent contracts with technology companies, seeks to expand Immigration and Customs Enforcement's (ICE) ability to monitor people through their social media to levels that threaten to violate constitutional rights. The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) has issued a solicitation seeking private companies to deploy at least 30 analysts to ICE monitoring centers in Williston, Vermont, near Canada, and in Santa Ana, California. The request is for a round-the-clock surveillance operation using the latest technology, including artificial intelligence, to support efforts to increase deportations.

Just four men who crossed the English Channel in small boats from France to the United Kingdom have been deported back to France under a migrant-swap scheme signed between the two countries in July. The deportations, which have taken place over the past week, were carried out under a one-in-one-out migrant deal signed between the UK and France. A fifth, Eritrean, man has won a High Court ruling placing a temporary block on his deportation.
