The imminent flight that I mentioned at the end of this story has taken off. Sounds like it’s going to go Senegal - Ghana - Central African Republic, with the latter two being third-country removals. At least one of the immigrants being sent to CAR is from Nepal.

NEW FROM ME: A frenzy of cruel and unusual ICE flights over the last few days suggests the Trump admin is ratcheting up its ethnic cleansing campaign. And it may be increasingly desperate to find willing collaborators. My breakdown: gillianbrockell.com/frenzy-of-cr...

As I've said many times, the revocation of TPS for Haitians is horrific on its face, but it's *also* going to have a devastating cascade of effects because Haitian workers are the backbone of health and human services supports for elderly and disabled folks, especially here in Massachusetts.

My Haitian friend was just fired from his job. "They said I don't have a legal status now." This is likely happening to hundreds of thousands of people across this country today. Sick.

People who are suddenly deported to countries they haven’t been to for years — or, in some cases, have NEVER been to — are incredibly vulnerable. We are going to be reading stories like this for years. God have mercy on their three little girls.

🚨 ICE has ramped up their operations in Passaic! From Mayor Hector Lora: “Today, Sat., July 18, 2026, we received reports that there may be increased federal immigration enforcement activity in the City of Passaic. This level of activity appears to be greater than what we have seen previously.”

The son of the man shot and killed by ICE: I am Ronaldo Salgado, the oldest son of Lorenzo Salgado Araujo. He should've been picking up the last of his guys before heading to finish up construction. Unbeknownst to all of us, my dad had been shot inside his van by ICE agents in unmarked cars.

BREAKING on MS NOW: Dozens of intel officials have started receiving notice of their terminations under Trump's unqualified acting DNI, Bill Pulte. The individuals are officials "who they believe are deep state" and whom leadership claims have not provided complete pictures of available intel.

Jack Smith: "I think we are facing an attack on the rule of law that is different in kind and scope to anything I've seen in my lifetime"

Yesterday, a private jet ICE flight operated by Talon Air landed in Liberia and The Gambia, before laying over in Senegal. Migrant passengers onboard were shackled at the wrists, ankles and waist for at least 16 hours.
