The court’s ruling ordering Trump not to deport a group of Venezuelan immigrants was an unprecedented rebuke. Are they finally taking back power?

This bill mandates a notice-and- #takedown system that threatens #freeexpression, #userprivacy, and #dueprocess, without meaningfully addressing the problem it claims to solve. The “takedown” provision applies to a much broader category of content…contains no protections against frivolous or bad-faith takedown requests. Lawful content—including #satire, #journalism, and #politicalspeech—could be wrongly censored.

"ICE went into the database where foreign students are tracked & deleted the record of at least 1,700 or more people because they had some minor interaction with law enforcement — speeding tickets, fishing citations, & other minor things."

Judges are ruling that was⚡illegal."
-A Reichlin-Melnick

"ICE must reinstate legal status of 133 INTL students on Tues."

"A federal judge in Colorado has blocked potential removals under the Alien Enemies Act, saying a series of recent SC basically required her to issue a restraining order.

She also found Trump's invocation of the AEA was flawed."

"BYU doctorate student’s visa reinstated after unexpected revocation."

"Another story of

1. Admin sends fascist order

2. Media reports on it

3. People are outraged, say no

4. Admin says “actually that order was a mistake”

Lesson is defy fascist orders"
-J Grumbach

"The reinstated visa came just minutes after they filed a lawsuit in fed court."

Something I haven't seen spoken about, but is really important re: #immigrant status in the US

Activities that the government decide go against the "good moral character" aspect of naturalization (e.g., support for groups the government deem terrorist organizations) that occur within 5 years of naturalization (re: after naturalization) can be cause to have your citizenship revoked.
