USCIS career civil servants better support citizenship efforts than short-term political appointees, offering expertise, neutrality, and continuity essential for developing naturalization tests.

This image came to me as I narrated the Passion of Jesus during our Good Friday service. It places Jesus among the detained to highlight the suffering of undocumented immigrants in modern detention systems.

Jesus Among the Detained. AI-generated image by ChatGPT, OpenAI, 18 Apr 2025.

#deportation
Woodcut-style image in red, white, and blue showing three barefoot prisoners, bent over and shackled, being forced to walk in a single file line down a prison corridor. Each prisoner is pushed forward by a masked guard with a hand on the prisoner's neck. The third prisoner wears a crown of thorns, symbolizing Jesus among the detained. The style is stark, graphic, and evocative of protest art.

Some light reading before editing my podcast:

“In the Trump Era, there is no past or present, no #history or vision, only the anxious present. There can be no hopes, dream, and ideals where there is no shared reality…”

The #UDHR lists the 30 rights that all people must have. Originally, the US Constitution was a plan of government, but then added ten amendments to protect the basic rights of Americans.
