An example of targeted protesting and public outcry leading to the release of an immigrant family illegally abducted by ICE from rural New York and taken to a detention center in Texas. Link to Guardian article below.
We must keep up the pressure!

"From the moment he was seized, it was #unconstitutional," Judge Xinis said during the hearing. "If there isn't a document, a warrant, a statement of probable cause, then there is no basis to have seized him in the first place. That's how I'm looking at it," the judge said.
Abrego Garcia was arrested & deported last month — despite having been granted protection by an #immigration judge in 2019 that should have prevented him from being deported to #ElSalvador.
Judge Xinis ordered the #Trump admin to return Abrego Garcia to the US by 11:59PM ET on Mon, April 7. She said keeping him in El Salvador constitutes irreparable harm.

#MarcoRubio posted on social media that he sent 17 people to #CECOT in #ElSalvador overnight, he claims that they are all Tren de Aragua or MS-13 members.
If they were *deported* under the questionably legal (US is not at war) #AEA, then it was in violation of the court order. Otherwise they would have to have had final orders of removal.
"Remaining in the United States without a lawful #immigration status can result in fines, #detention, &/or *#deportation*. It may also make you ineligible for a future US #visa. Please note that deportation can take place at a time that *does not allow the person being deported to secure possessions or conclude affairs in the United States* [snatched off street]. Persons being deported may be sent to *countries other than their countries of origin* [#CECOT].”
The #legal #rights people have if #ICE stops them
A sense of anxiety is gripping noncitizen residents of the #UnitedStates.
The 2nd #Trump admin kicked off w/a shock-&-awe effort aimed at arresting & deporting many immigrants without legal status. But stories are now emerging of both longtime legal permanent residents & visa holders being detained by ICE & other #immigration *officers*.

In logical terms, the analogy of experience proceeds by inducing a Rule about the validity of a current knowledge base and then by deducing a Fact, the applicability of that knowledge base to a current experience.
Step 1 is Inductive, abstracting a Rule from a Case and a Fact.
• Case : E_past ⇒ E_poss, Chosen events fairly sample Collective events.
• Fact : E_past ⇒ K_pres, Chosen events support the Knowledge regime.
────────────────────────────────────────────────
• Rule : E_poss ⇒ K_pres, Collective events support the Knowledge regime.
Step 2 is Deductive, admitting a Case to a Rule and arriving at a Fact.
• Case : E_pres ⇒ E_poss, Current events fairly sample Collective events.
• Rule : E_poss ⇒ K_pres, Collective events support the Knowledge regime.
────────────────────────────────────────────────
• Fact : E_pres ⇒ K_pres, Current events support the Knowledge regime.

Returning to the scene of Dewey's “Sign of Rain” example, let's continue examining how the transfer of knowledge through the analogy of experience works in that case.
By way of a recap, we began by considering a fragment K_pres of the reasoner's knowledge base which is logically equivalent to a conjunction of two rules.
• K_pres ⇔ (B ⇒ A) ∧ (B ⇒ D).
K_pres may be thought of as a piece of knowledge or item of information allowing for the possibility of certain conditions, expressed in the form of a logical constraint on the present universe of discourse.
Next we found it convenient to express all logical statements in terms of their models, that is, in terms of the primitive circumstances or elements of experience over which they hold true.
• Let E_past be the chosen set of experiences, or the circumstances in mind under “past experience”.
• Let E_poss be the collective set of experiences, or the prospective total of possible circumstances.
• Let E_pres be the current experience, or the circumstances immediately present to the reasoner.
If we think of the knowledge base K_pres as referring to the “regime of experience” over which it is valid, then the sets of models involved in the analogy may be ordered according to the relationships of set inclusion or logical implication existing among them.
Figure 4 shows the subsumption relations involved in the analogy of experience.
