Labeling the Republican leaders who're responsible for these barbarous deportation efforts as Nazis is generous, a new term is needed to reflect their racist, AI-aided, diabolical mindset.

"To issue this memo the same week they cut the Legal Orientation Program that provides minimal assistance to detained #immigrants who've to file asylum applications unrepresented shows how depraved those making these decisions are."
-L Toczylowski

SPOX Leavitt is speaking at a podium with the White House logo, flanked by a U.S. flag. The text above indicates a statement about foreign nationals in the U.S. needing to register with the government or face arrest and deportation.
A tweet from Aaron Reichlin-Melnick discusses a new memo from the Acting Director of Immigration Courts, Sirce E. Owen. The memo allegedly allows immigration judges to deny asylum applications without hearings. The tweet raises concerns about the legal authority of it:

'Britain and other European countries can disrupt smuggling networks and raise the cost of doing business, although unfortunately they are likely to make cross-channel journeys more lethal in the process.'

Iranian refugee: “If you think the smugglers are bad people, I agree with you. It’s a long and unsafe journey, a dangerous journey. But do you think it’s possible to go to the British embassy in Iran and get a visa?”

“He took information that was publicly available but labor-intensive to compile, and did something nobody else was doing...I don’t know if he expected this second career to make him basically the world’s only credible public source on U.S. deportation flights, just as they were becoming part of one of the United States’ biggest national news stories.”

Back in the courtroom At attorney Prada’s request the judge froze Reyes Mota’s #asylum case for the time being. That way, he could eventually take it up again. That is, if he is ever able to return to the #UnitedStates.

“We can agree that there was no removal order from this court or another court,” the judge said, noting that there was very little he could do.

He has no tattoos & his family members deny he has any gang ties. Had Reyes Mota still been in the #US, his #asylum hearing would have been a commonplace matter. But his absence showcases the remarkable nature of the #Venezuelans’ #deportation to #ElSalvador. As attys argue the flights were unlawful & violated a federal judge’s order, the #immigration court is navigating the case of an asylum seeker w/pending immigration proceedings whom #Trump flew to another country w/o #DueProcess.

For this #monochromemonday post: Building 93 at the former Kings Park Psychiatric Center, a defunct New York State-run psychiatric hospital on the North Shore of Long Island that was open from 1885-1996. This particular building was a patient ward building, 13 stories tall, and built from 1939-1940, and opened to patients in 1941. It was vacated for good in 1992, a few years ahead of the complete closure of the hospital campus but by then, only the first four floors were actually being used. Utilities (water, electric, heat, etc.) were shut off in 1993 and the building has been left to rot ever since. #monochrome #blackandwhite #blackandwhitephotography #decay #urbandecay #abandonedplaces #derelictstructures #derelict #abandoned #abandonedbuilding #modernruins #ruins #urbex #lefttorot #architecture #architecturalphotography #gothic #scary #haunted #longisland #newyork #asylum #hospital #photography #fujifilm #fujixt3 #tamron #tamron18300f3563

This #ScientificAsylum could also take different forms in EU, not only 'physical' :

lipn.infoClaire Mathieu (@clairemathieu@lipn.info)Les auteurs racontent: "So it happened. We have officially withdrawn a paper accepted for publication in a scientific journal because of editorial requests to remove language deemed out of compliance with executive orders." https://criticalpublichealth.org/blog/2025/03/21/resisting-attacks-on-science/ L'article devait être publié dans "Public Health Reports, the official journal of the US Surgeon General and the US Public Health Service" mais les dernières révisions ont réclamé des suppressions des mots interdits "in order to comply with the Executive Order". Les mots en question étaient tout à fait périphériques au sujet de l'article et pouvaient être omis sans changer la teneur principale de l'article. Face à une requête déraisonnable et injuste, mais qui dans ce cas particulier est sans conséquence, faut-il accepter (pour avoir la paix, puisque dans ce cas là ce n'est qu'un changement très mineur) ou refuser (par principe)?
