Poll: Support for Deportations Drops
A new Gallup poll reveals Americans have grown markedly more positive toward immigration over the past year, reversing a four-year trend of rising concern about immigration that began in 2021 and reflect changes among all major party groups. Poll results show:
30% of Americans want immigration decreased, down from 55% a year ago
Record-high 79% consider immigration good for the country
Support down for border wall, mass deportation
Judge bars ICE from 'indiscriminately' detaining immigrants
A federal California judge has ordered the Trump administration to stop "indiscriminately" detaining people thought to be in the US illegally. The government cannot base its immigration arrests "solely" on factors including "race or ethnicity", "speaking Spanish or speaking English with an accent", or "presence at a particular location" such as a bus stop or car wash, Judge Maame Frimpong said. The Department of Homeland Security responded to the judge's order in a social media post, accusing her of "undermining the will of the American people".
Farmworker on life support after chaotic federal raid
A Southern California farmworker is in critical condition after being injured during a chaotic immigration raid by federal officers. Immigration officials said in a statement that Garcia was not in federal custody at the time of the fall. “Although he was not being pursued by law enforcement, this individual climbed up to the roof of a green house and fell 30 feet,” Department of Homeland Security Assistant Secretary Tricia McLaughlin said. “CBP immediately called a medivac to the scene to get him care as quickly as possible.”
Trump authorizes ICE agents to protect themselves using ‘whatever means’ necessary
President Trump has given “total authorization” to federal immigration agents to protect themselves after a series of clashes with protesters, including during enforcement raids on two California cannabis farms. Trump said he’s told the administrators to “instruct all Ice, Homeland Security, or any other Law Enforcement Officer who is on the receiving end of thrown rocks, bricks, or any other form of assault, to stop their car, and arrest these SLIMEBALLS, using whatever means is necessary to do so”.
