    1. Thousands of ICE detainees’ whereabouts have been scrubbed from an online federal database after the agency instituted an unannounced change to its deportation process.

      ICE quietly removed detainees who were subject to final deportation orders from its online detainee locator system last week, three current and former ICE officials told the Associated Press.

      The move has made it increasingly difficult for these detainees, who had received final orders of removal from an immigration court, to be traced or contacted by attorneys or family members.

      That seems illegal, but so does everything this administration does.

      Best we can offer is some disapproving comments and saying “Well, when Democrats win the midterms…”

    3. Stephen Miller, Donald Trump, and the rest of these fascists need to be put on trial for crimes against humanity.

    4. these detainees have final orders of deportation meaning their case for immigration or asylum has been denied and their next stop is somewhere outside the usa. many still have some legal avenues they could pursue to win asylum or visa, etc. that means their families, advocates, and lawyers need to know where they are to file the paperwork. that’s probably why the list came down. you can’t stop the deportation if the lawyers can’t find the detainee in time. the taking down of the list is most likely to impede appeals to final orders of deportation..

    5. Ah, well that was predictable. There is a reason they don’t want any oversight, and it’s not because they are treating humans like humans. We live in dark times, that I suspect at least on the short end, will get much darker.

    6. When the truth comes out about all of these prisons and what happens there, it’ll damage America’s reputation beyond repair. There are some things you can’t just blame on Donald Trump.

    7. Wasn’t there like a Google satellite image of the detention center in central America that had a HUGE bloodstain on the outdoor yard concrete? That disappeared days after?

    8. Do they sell that as a service? I’d like to scrub my online presence. Minus all of the nazi prisoner death shit

      What happens…. when ICE starts disappearing? Since they aren’t giving people due process, we do not need to give ICE due process, right? We can deport them, to countries they have never been…. yes? Let them be charged with their crimes and serve their time overseas? Make nice with some countries and pay them to house them for us…?

      Americans didn’t care when they were abducting people off the streets. Americans didn’t care when they were tearing kids and parents apart. Americans didn’t care when they were locking human up like worthless animals. Americans didn’t care when they began raping the women and children they detained. Americans didn’t care when they began executing other Americans on the streets. Why would they care that records of people they don’t know or care about are erased along with the people? The private police is still kicking it with the most minimal pushback. Summer 2020 had more movement across the US and I do not believe Americans will ever do something of that scale again for anyone or anything unless it’s to pat themselves on the back to feel accomplished

    11. This is why they won’t allow free and fair elections. They are cooked if they ever lose power.
