This woman lays bare how ICE has structured its detention system to make immigrants disappear. If you miss your single phone call or fail to give your ID to the right person at the right moment.... That’s it. You’re black-holed and untraceable. This should horrify everyone.

the design is intentional. making disappearance bureaucratic makes it banal. lose your paperwork and you cease to exist in the system's eyes. the machinery grinds on regardless. this is why documentation is resistance

Our court system is totally inadequate for this level of mendacity and psychopathy. No country could survive this without relentless pushback at the highest levels. They absolutely must be stopped.

One can only hope that when this nightmare is finally over in 2029, that people -from top to bottom- are held accountable for these atrocities being committed today.

I would like to say this is not who we are. That (a slight majority) of the American people voted for Trump gives me doubt. This is a major shitstorm and I'm not sure we'll recover.

What the heck is this A number??? Even the concentration camp in Germany keeps better record than these ICE detention center...our whole entire country is so fucked in so many ways

Mind-blowing how systems are literally engineered to fail people.

ICE wouldn't be able to terrorize America without people willing to go to work for them and carry out their orders. Which proves a theory I have always held, for the right price people are willing to sell their souls.

They are being sent home, they dont belong in US

Trumps America has become,in a short space of time,one of the scariest countries on earth.

Avoidable. Illegals have had over a year to self deport. Nobody should be feeling bad for them.

You don't get to dictate policy when there was no policy for the 20 million mostly non-white military aged men that were ushered into this country under the last admin.

ICE takes away people’s cell phones as soon as they are detained. They don’t get it back until they are deported. Imagine you are taken by ICE. They take your phone & throw you in a detention center. Most people carry all contact numbers in their phone. Who can you even call now?

Sending them back to their home countries is not "disappearance". Living among brownoids (if you are too) is not the hell you think it is.

@TheKylieChi This is a dystopian idea for a dystopian situation, but is there an 800 number that can be set up and the number passed around so that it becomes a known quantity? People can call the 800 number knowing someone will pick up, and 800 number will then have the info available.

You misspelled “illegal” immigrants….

Bye illegals! 👋👋

They're almost like concentration camps. Cutting off your contact with the outside world while locked up in deplorable conditions.

What horrifies me is that millions of people can illegally enter the country, and that tax money and American money is going to NGO people who organize it.

Cool. Dont care.

Because each day that they can illegally detain people is more money in @CoreCivic 's pocket. #followthemoney

It apparently does NOT horrify the people who can do something about it.., such as @GOP @USSupremeCourt who COULD put pressure on @WhiteHouse @DHSgov 🇺🇸 is FUCKED 🆘

Are you encouraging self deportation. Best way to avoid detention centers.

They are trafficking people. Why do you think Ghislaine Maxwell is getting such gentle treatment?

They all have the opportunity to go on the app take $1000 and have a flight free. Stop your nonsense.

Gee, that sounds like what Biden's JD did to protesters--& they were citizens. I'll give you the benefit of the doubt, which I shouldn't, but these problems wouldn't occur if the rabble allowed the repatriation effort to proceed in an orderly way.

Yep. They did this to my barber, whose wife in the U.S. is due to have a baby any day now. He came here legally and was pursuing citizenship. But ICE detained him 3 weeks ago and he was just *gone*. Family could get no answers from ICE about why or where he was. Nothing at all.

@Ace_Archist Sounds like it is much safer to self deport

Dear ICE, please start deporting liberal, white women. Thank you, Real Americans

I hate to break it to you ladies but even when you're arrested you get one free phone call and that person doesn't answer that call you don't get another one the next person you will talk to, will be your court appointment lawyer

@ScottGreenfield The black hole: their home Calm down.
