ICE Fails Again to Publish Required Detention Data

For the second time this year, the agency has failed to publish the required information about immigration enforcement on schedule this week. Transparency isn't what you say, it's what you do.

For decades, Venezuelans have endured deep harm under the Maduro government, including repression, economic collapse, and violence. Acknowledging that suffering is essential. But let’s be clear: U.S. intervention has never centered the safety or dignity of Venezuelan people.

This morning I’m bereft. They hate us. They’re killing us. They’re terrorizing us. They’re torturing us. Most days I can see it and process it to the best of my ability in that moment. I have to put one foot in front of another. I’ve become disciplined in that. And then there are days like this.

Folks who want to meet this moment really have to do some deep internal work on how they inadvertently uphold patriarchy, white supremacy, structural racism, class differences, and privilege to truly begin to make an impact. Like for real for real.

Today’s culmination of National Migration Week led by @usccbofficial.bsky.social and @catholiccharities.bsky.social provides an opportunity for deep reflection. For me it highlights the deadly ethnic cleansing happening in our midst fueled by bigotry, nationalism, pride, and power.

🚨NEW: Reversing *generations* of practice, the Board of Immigration Appeals gives ICE exactly what it demanded, ruling that any undocumented immigrant who entered illegally is categorically ineligible for release from detention on bond — expanding mandatory detention by millions of people.

Matter of Jonathan Javier YAJURE HURTADO, Respondent
Decided September 5, 2025
U.S. Department of Justice
Executive Office for Immigration Review
Board of Immigration Appeals
Based on the plain language of section 235(b)(2)(A) of the Immigration and Nationality
Act, 8 U.S.C. § 1225(b)(2)(A) (2018), Immigration Judges lack authority to hear bond
requests or to grant bond to aliens who are present in the United States without admission.

Today in 2015, the body of Alan Kurdi, a three-year-old Syrian child, was found on a beach in Turkey. A photo went viral, sparking awareness & compassion for migrants who drown at sea. Historians now say it was the last time anyone publicly cared about the death of children.

NEW: In the dead of night, the Trump admin ripped vulnerable kids from their beds, attempting to return them to danger in Guatemala. We’re heartened the Court prevented this injustice. We’ll keep fighting to protect our plaintiffs & all class members until the effort is enjoined permanently.
