Who are the Venezuelan immigrants Trump sent to CECOT?

Earlier this year, our team compiled a first-of-its-kind, case-by-case accounting of 238 Venezuelan men who were held in El Salvador.

"For decades, Rob sought to entertain and enlighten us with his television and film work and to improve the world with his activism. This loss is incalculable.

But my hunch is that Rob would have gotten a kick out of causing Trump to show his worst."
Rob Reiner was a mensch. In death, he showed us Trump’s a schmuck.
The president's remarks about the murder of the filmmaker and his wife cast Trump as petty and callous.

ICE left David, a 17-year-old boy, stranded on the side of Interstate 20 after pulling over his immigrant father, Hector, in Mississippi.

David began running in the scorching sun after the car and watched as it disappeared from sight—soon headed to a Louisiana ICE prison.

Here's their story.

News today that ICE shot a woman is chilling. The videos online show that there are some abusive, masked thugs masquerading as law enforcement.

Nobody deserves this. The courts need to step in.

A WILD ONE: A man broke his leg during an arrest by ICE at a car wash south of L.A.

ICE has held him under 24/7 guard at a hospital, registering him under a pseudonym, for *37 days* without telling him why.

A judge has ordered his immediate release.

New: It’s increasingly more likely that a longstanding bedrock cybersecurity law will expire in tandem with a government shutdown anticipated next week. I spoke with multiple sources about the state of play on the Hill and in industry:

Vital cyber data-sharing law appears likely to expire amid looming government shutdown
Law firms are advising clients to prepare for this possibility, although the extent of information sharing that will cease if the law lapses remains unclear.

CISA has published a report from a "proactive hunt" at an unnamed US critical infrastructure operator.

It's a headache-inducing report, and I'm being generous on the findings.

When mentions of race are deemed too “divisive” for American discourse, history becomes relegated to comfortable fables. This vibes-based tactic makes putty of truth while claiming to protect it.
