Democratic ofcls recoiled this week at the detention. Mr. Garamendi, a #Democrat, said that it was the latest example of how the #Trump admin was rounding up mothers & children instead of focusing its #immigration enforcement on dangerous criminals.

He also condemned the sharing of passenger information by #TSA with #ICE, saying that data sharing seemed to be “omnipresent” under the Trump admin, putting personal information at risk & bypassing #DueProcess.

Government documents obtained by NYT explain the events leading up to the tense scene, including the exchange between the agent & Ms. Lopez-Jimenez.

The documents shed new light on how the #TSA is sharing with #ICE officials the names & birth dates of travelers believed to have been ordered out of the country by a judge. That has made it easier for the #Trump admin to detain & deport undocumented immigrants as they pass through #airports.

The New York Times sued the #Pentagon & #Defense Secy Pete #Hegseth in December, claiming the credentialing policy violates the #journalists’ constitutional rights to #FreeSpeech & #DueProcess.

The current Pentagon #PressCorps is comprised mostly of “conservative” outlets that agreed to the policy. reporters from outlets that refused to consent to the new rules, including from The Associated Press, have continued reporting on the #military.
