The reason full 'due process' doesn't apply to immigration detention is the fiction that it's not punishment, but rather simply a precursor to deportation (also not 'punishment for a crime' under precedent). but the refusal to allow self-deportation here just smacks of punishment.
Reports that a Canadian citizen who has resided in the US since age 10 was abducted at a green card interview.
Her husband is begging ICE to let him fly her back to Canada and they refuse to release her.

Have we checked inside the artifacts. In the museums, all the objects, have we looked inside? Maybe there's something that can vanquish this darkness. Maybe it's hiding in there

This is a really important point. Most Medicaid recipients likely have NO idea that they’re about to lose their coverage.

Michael Pham fled Vietnam at the age of 13. He was named bishop of San Diego a month ago.
Today, he stood watch at a courthouse: ICE agents were “standing there covered with masks as we walked toward the courtroom. Eventually the agents scattered and went away”

Attended an event downtown LA today.
Drove through downtown LA to get home.
No riots.
No looting.
No burning cars.
It's hard to overstate the extent to which this is a manufactured crisis.
