Think about this. ICE is so short of its “numbers’” and too lazy to do actual investigatory work, that they wait around court hallways to arrest and detain people who actually show up for court hearings and USCIS interviews.

A remarkably stupid decision by Rubio and Trump. Stopping the issuance of student visas, as students get ready to come to the US for Fall Semester is not a message to the Universities, it is a message to the students--go elsewhere.

It’s the latest salvo against universities, many of whom rely heavily on foreign students for funds.

There are now 238,892 pending U visa applications. 41,588 filed in FY 2024. USCIS adjudicated 13,646 during FY2024, denying 3,646 applications (denial rate of 26.7%). It now takes almost 24 years for a U visa to be issued.

The #immigration system is broken.

Because Trump will be issuing an executive order on January 20, 2025, to stop issuing Passports to children born in the US to undocumented parents, and even to parents on nonimmigrant visas, children should apply for Passports immediately, using the expedite option.

Sometimes there's nothing more fun than being a lawyer. Imagine how much fun Olivia Troye's lawyer had answering the idiotic complaint from Kash Patel, whining that he would sue if she kept saying he was unfit to run the FBI. This is one for the ages.

As Trump plans for mass deportations, he could be hindered by the fact that ICE data shows about half of currently pending deportation orders can’t be carried out. Yeah, told you so.

Many targeted for removal by Trump can’t be deported, ICE data shows
Some would-be deportees’s home countries won’t take them or limit cooperation with ICE. Others have received reprieves or deferrals from immigration judges.

Under U.S. law, TPS can only be revoked if conditions in a country improve significantly. It would be nearly impossible for Trump and Vance to argue that conditions have improved in places like Haiti, Venezuela, or El Salvador, where instability, violence, and economic crises persist.
