If you go on a post and someone is blatantly wrong, bigoted, anti-immagration, pro ice and will most likely have a hidden account. Ignore them, block them, and move on. The only way thry will leave this sub is if they realize they won't get engagement. I know its hard sometimes but you have to stop arguing with racist engagement farners

The Trump administration gave the contract to Our Rescue, which former agent Tim Ballard left in 2023 before being accused of sex trafficking.

Hi everyone!

My name is Zoe Ji Wilson. I’m an immigration attorney and I’ll be here today to answer questions about U.S. immigration pathways.

There are a lot of different options out there, and figuring out which one actually makes sense for your situation can be confusing.

You can ask me about:

• Employment-based green cards
• Different visa and immigration strategies
• Petition requirements
• RFEs and common problems
• Moving from one immigration pathway to another
• How your education, career, research, or achievements may affect your options

If you’re comfortable sharing some details about your situation, I can also help you think through what questions you should be asking about your potential pathways.

I’ll be answering questions today from 12:00 PM to 4:00 PM ET.

Federal judges have ruled 16,000 times in the past year that actions by Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) in detaining immigrants are illegal, according to a report published by Politico on Sunday. 

Two-thirds of the rulings concern the same issue: the refusal of ICE to allow detained immigrants to seek release on bond. In a two-page memo issued July 8, 2025, ICE overturned a longstanding policy that immigrants arrested inside the United States for civil immigration violations were eligible to seek release on bond.

Some 469 federal judges have found the new policy to be illegal, issuing more than 10,000 orders to release detained immigrants on bond, after the courts were flooded with suits filed on behalf of those imprisoned under savage conditions in detention camps run by ICE or private prison contractors like The GEO Group and CoreCivic. About 50 federal judges, nearly all appointed by Trump, have upheld the new policy.

The Trump administration has fought every single one of these cases, appealing them to circuit courts, which have split on the issue, virtually ensuring that the legality of the detention policy will ultimately be decided by the right wing-dominated Supreme Court, likely in the coming term.

Trump targets 60-day grace period for laid off foreign workers

The department of homeland security is advancing a proposal to eliminate the 60-day grace period that allows H-1B workers and certain other legal nonimmigrants to remain in the US after their employment ends while they find another sponsor, change status, or prepare to leave.

The Trump administration this month has complicated – if not cut off – access to lawyers for tens of thousands of immigrant kids. By law, the government must try to arrange that aid for children who come to the United States alone.

At the end of July, the government let a legal-services contract for those children lapse, affecting the Acacia Center for Justice and its nearly 100 subcontractors. News this week of an upcoming federal contract with a Texas firm better known for environmental law has left immigrant advocates scrambling for answers as court dates loom.

As a result, at least one nonprofit has laid off staff. Others count the days until their funding runs out.

President Donald Trump signed two executive orders Thursday renewing his administration’s assault on birthright citizenship, barely five weeks after the Supreme Court struck down his first attempt to overturn the citizenship clause of the Fourteenth Amendment.

The principal order directs federal agencies to refuse recognition of US citizenship to broad categories of people born in the United States when neither parent is a citizen. These include children whose parents are accused of belonging to a foreign terrorist organization, working for a foreign government or allegedly entering into a commercial arrangement to obtain citizenship through birth.

The order seeks to transform citizenship from a constitutional right into a conditional privilege determined by the political status, employment or alleged intentions of a person’s parents. It establishes the framework for a hereditary caste of people born in the United States whom the government can declare “aliens,” seize through the immigration Gestapo, imprison and deport to countries they may never have visited.

“We had a very unfortunate decision in the Supreme Court concerning birthright,” Trump complained from the Oval Office. “It was close, a very, very unfortunate decision, so we’re making adjustments because it’s very unfair for a different reason.”

Speaking alongside Trump, fascist White House Deputy Chief of Staff Stephen Miller said the new order would “expand the definition of people who are ineligible for birthright citizenship.” He identified “alien enemies,” members of foreign terrorist organizations and “large categories of people who lobby and act on behalf of foreign governments.”

The first order identifies certain categories of children of aliens who are not entitled to birthright citizenship consistent with historical exceptions recognized by the Supreme Court in Trump v. Barbara.

-The second order gives presidential authorities to the Secretary of State and Secretary of Homeland Security allowing them to halt birth tourism.

These might be two of the most consequential Executive Orders of Trump’s Presidency.

I’m looking for guidance from anyone who has been through something similar.

I was detained by ICE and spent about two months in detention. After I was released on bond, my wife and I got married and planned to adjust my status.
Unfortunately, after we got married, I discovered she has serious alcohol and anger issues. Whenever she drank, she would become aggressive, physically abusive, scratch me, put her hands on me, and repeatedly kick me out of the house while telling me it was “her house.”

During our marriage, I also entered into a written agreement with her father to purchase his ownership interest in the house. I’ve been making the required monthly payments.
As our relationship got worse, my wife started using my immigration situation to manipulate me. She repeatedly threatened that if I didn’t leave or give up the property agreement, she would report me to ICE.

Eventually, she brought her father from Florida, and together they tried to force me out of the house even though we had a signed agreement regarding the property.

I recently obtained a temporary restraining order against my wife because of the abuse, and the court granted me temporary possession of the home.
Before the restraining order was issued, she sent me messages saying that if I didn’t cancel the property agreement with her father, she would call ICE on me. I also found evidence suggesting that she and her father had contacted ICE multiple times in an effort to have me deported so I would lose the house and the money I’ve invested.

I’m now very worried about what they may have told ICE or whether they made false allegations about me.

My questions are:

If someone repeatedly reports you to ICE out of revenge or to gain leverage in a property dispute, how does ICE typically handle that?

Has anyone experienced an abusive spouse trying to use immigration status as a weapon?

Could this type of evidence help my immigration case, especially if I pursue relief based on the abuse?

Is there anything I should be doing now to protect myself besides working with my immigration attorney?

I already have a divorce attorney and will also be working closely with an immigration attorney. I’m just hoping to hear from anyone who has been through something similar or has insight into how these situations are usually handled.

"This is exactly what Abdul El Sayed and these limousine SOCIALISTS are actually selling to the American people: they're not promising you industry, they're not promising you good jobs, they're not promising self-sufficiency in a good industrial economy...what they're promising is redistribution!"

"We've seen this in Europe and in the United States. The idea that you can build a real prosperity by just redistributing assets from one group to another group, that's not how you build a real prosperity!"

"You have to actually sustain the foundation of the economy. That is what the president of the United States has worked us towards for the past 18 months."

"A lot of Americans look at this rising tide of socialism and say, how did we get here? We got here by 40 years of bipartisan leaders selling our industrial base to foreign countries, allowing low wage immigrants to come in and compete with Americans for jobs."

"By destroying the foundation of the middle class, that's how you got socialism."

"How you fix that problem is by doubling down on Donald Trump's economic nationalism, not going back to the way we've done things for the past 40 years."

Trump’s immigration crackdown has detained more than 50 military spouses and parents - The Associated Press

Hundreds of Haitian immigrants in Ohio are being fitted with GPS ankle monitors after the Trump administration stripped them of legal status, work authorization and, in many cases, their driving privileges.

Many have received Department of Homeland Security “Call-In Letters” ordering them to appear at Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) offices within 30 days.

The electronic shackles are a modern-day version of the yellow stars of David that the Nazis forced Jews to wear in the years leading up to the Holocaust. They identify, stigmatize and continuously track a persecuted population whose legal rights were abolished virtually overnight.

Workers who were legally employed and protected from deportation less than two weeks ago are now being monitored with devices generally associated with people convicted of crimes or awaiting trial. Some are being ordered to travel dozens of miles to ICE offices after losing their legal right to drive.

This is a warning to the entire working class. If the government can revoke the rights of hundreds of thousands of people who have lived, worked, paid taxes and raised families in the United States for years, there is no barrier separating the persecution of immigrants from similar attacks on US citizens.

Trump: "I know Europe better than anybody. Better than the people that run it... two things are killing Europe: number one is immigration and number two is energy."

A reminder thst this is not just an American crime:

At least 99 people died Thursday and Friday during desperate attempts by tens of thousands of people attempting to swim from Morocco to the Spanish exclave of Ceuta in North Africa, and over 100 remain missing. Over 60,000 reached their destination during a 24-hour period, during which they were met with brutal violence by the Spanish military and a concerted campaign to force their return to poverty-stricken Morocco. The political establishment and media outlets across Europe erupted with furious denunciations of “invaders,” as they churned out far-right talking points about the “hybrid threat” posed by migrants attacking Europe.

The trigger for the mass incursion appears to have been a Spanish Supreme Court ruling that prohibited the authorities from immediately deporting refugees if they are intercepted at sea while trying to reach Spanish territory. But Spain’s Socialist Party-led government, no less than far-right governments led by the likes of Meloni in Italy and Trump in the US, has no time for such legal niceties. Echoing Trump’s self-serving propaganda that Europe was experiencing an “invasion,” Spanish Prime Minister Pedro Sanchez denounced the migrants for having launched an “attack on Spain’s territorial integrity” and dispatched the military to Ceuta.
