Irish Star: Pam Bondi [Bimbo #3] storms off in silence after refusing to answer questions on migrant claims

Attorney General Pam Bondi was caught skipping out of a press conference as she avoided answering a reporter’s question on migrants without criminal records sent to El Salvador….

“60 Minutes found that 75% of the immigrants who were sent to El Salvador do not have public criminal records. Is that true?” the correspondent asked as Pam Bondi stepped outside to take questions on immigration from reporters.

As part of her reply, Bimbo #3 & Airhead Extraordinaire says:

“So if you committed a murder in our country, we’re gonna keep you here and we’re gonna seek the death penalty and we’re gonna keep you in prison because our victims’ families deserve that, but we don’t have to charge them with every crime. We can deport them and get them out of our country and save room in our prisons because they should have never been in our country to begin with,” she finishes.

Which is a roundabout way of saying that the Venezuelans they’re deporting aren’t really criminals. And the reporter’s follow-up question:

The reporter continues to press her, as Bondi didn’t answer her original question. “So you confirmed they didn’t commit a crime, right?” asked the reporter.

Whereupon Bimbo #3 and Airhead Extraordinaire got flustered and stomped out:

At that point, Bondi turned around and left, ending the press session.

Alternet: ‘Caught in limbo’: Decorated Iraq War veteran now target of Trump deportations

What a wonderful way to that a veteran for his service to our country! Not!

A man who served in the U.S. military and survived two combat deployments to Iraq is now at risk of being deported to a country that is refusing to accept him.

Rolling Stone columnist Michael Embrich wrote Wednesday about the case of Army veteran Jose Barco, who is now in deportation proceedings even though he’s an honorably discharged Purple Heart recipient diagnosed with post-traumatic stress disorder. According to Embrich, Barco is “caught in limbo” as he faces deportation to Venezuela, despite not having visited the country since he was a toddler.

Barco — whose father fled Cuba for Venezuela before bringing him to the U.S. at age four — received his Purple Heart medal after an explosion launched him into a wall, resulting in severe burns and a traumatic brain injury. In 2004, he served in Charlie Company, 1st Battalion, 506th Infantry Regiment, and saw frequent combat as his deployment was during the height of the Iraqi insurgency.

Embrich went on to write about how Barco was nearly naturalized, as he got help with his U.S. citizenship application from his commanding officer. However, Barco’s file got lost in the application process, and he had no way to track it in the system. As Embrich explained, Barco had a “straightforward path to naturalization” that ended up becoming “an invisible trap door leading to exile.”

Newsweek: Trump DHS Orders 900K Biden-Era Migrants to Leave ‘Immediately’

900,000 immigrants who were here LEGALLY are going to disappear overnight? Do you believe in magic?

The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) has ordered migrants who entered the U.S. via the CBP One app to leave “immediately.”

The Biden-era CBP One app—through which more than 900,000 people were allowed temporary entry beginning in January 2023—was used to schedule appointments at ports of entry and helped migrants live and work under parole in the U.S. for two years.

Raw Story: ‘Path of lawlessness’: Reagan-appointed judge buries Trump DOJ in scathing ruling

Over the weekend, a Justice Department attorney was put on administrative leave after acknowledging in court that he’d never been given a “satisfactory” answer for why the U.S. government couldn’t return a wrongfully deported immigrant from Venezuela who had been residing in Maryland. Now, the 4th Circuit Court of Appeals is scolding the DOJ’s behavior in a new ruling.

In a unanimous decision on Monday, the court denied President Donald Trump’s administration’s efforts to resist returning Kilmar Abrego Garcia to the United States by midnight on Monday, wrote Politico legal reporter Kyle Cheney on X.

J. Harvie Wilkinson III, an appointee of former President Ronald Reagan, was particularly scathing in his reaction to government claims that it could not possibly bring Garcia back to the United States despite acknowledging his wrongful deportation.

“The government rightfully concedes that it was an ‘error’ and a ‘mistake’ to ignore this process,” Wilkinson wrote. “And, if it is truly a mistake, one would also expect the government to do what it can to rectify it. Most of us attempt to undo, to the extent that we can, the mistakes that we have made. But, to the best of my knowledge, the government has not made the attempt here. The facts of this case thus present the potential for a disturbing loophole: namely that the government could whisk individuals to foreign prisons in violation of court orders and then contend, invoking its Article II powers, that it is no longer their custodian, and there is nothing that can be done. It takes no small amount of imagination to understand that this is a path of perfect lawlessness, one that courts cannot condone.”

The Independent: A man came to the US to donate a kidney to his brother. ICE showing up as his doorstep interrupted that plan

A Venezuelan man came to the United States to donate a kidney to his brother in kidney failure, but ICE authorities detained him, putting the fate of both brothers in question.

José Alfredo Pacheco, 37, was diagnosed with end-stage kidney failure in December 2023, shortly after arriving in the Chicago area from Venezuela, seeking asylum. His older brother, José Gregorio González, 43, hoped to donate his kidney to save Pacheco’s life — but immigration authorities detained him, throwing their plans into disarray.

The pair had an appointment at a hospital ahead of the organ transplant surgery, the Chicago Tribune reported. But those plans are now up in the air after Immigration and Customs Enforcement arrested González on March 3 as he was making breakfast at his home for his sick brother.

DHS to Terminate CHNV Parole Program Effective April 24, 2025

The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) has indicated that it will be publishing a notice in the Federal Register on Tuesday, March 25, 2025, announcing its plans to terminate a program granting humanitarian parole and employment authorization to qualifying nationals of Cuba, Haiti, Nicaragua, and Venezuela, a program commonly referred to as the “CHNV Parole Program.”. 

The termination of CHNV parole will take effect on April 24, 2025 ( or 30-days after the publication of the notice in the Federal Register if published after March 25th). As of the effective date, CHNV parolees and their immediate family members will lose their parole benefits, including their ability to remain lawfully in the U.S. and their employment authorization (even if their parole document or EAD card have a later expiration date). DHS expects all CHNV parolees who have not secured an alternative lawful means of remaining in the U.S. to depart by April 24, 2025. Those who do not depart the U.S. by that time may be subject to a process known as “expedited removal”  – a fast-track deportation process without a hearing before an Immigration Judge that carries with it a 5-year bar on reentry to the U.S.

What this means is that by April 24, 2025 more than half a million immigrants, plus their family members, all of whom are currently in the United States LEGALLY, will be expected to have disappeared from the U.S.

Bimbo #2 Kristi Noem and her degenerate sidekick Tom Homan will no doubt be enjoying an endless stream of mental orgasms at the thought of turning hundreds of thousands of lives inside out & upside down.

Who needs a Gestapo, when you’ve got ICE, run by misfits like Homan and Bimbo #2?

Daily Express: Trump administration moves to end temporary status for 530,000 people

Another half a million immigrants (mostly refugees and asylum candidates) will now be available for Trump’s ICE bullies to abuse and deport.

It’s as though Trump strives to create misery for people on the largest scale possible.

President Donald Trump’s administration is reportedly gearing up to end temporary legal status for more than 530,000 people who arrived in the United States from Cuba, Nicaragua, Venezuela, and Haiti.

This comes after Trump directed his officials to “terminate all categorical parole programs that are contrary to the policies of the United States,” on the first day of his second term at the White House.

According to a Federal Register document, these people entered the country via former President Joe Biden’s temporary parole programs which are scheduled to end on April 24.

    According to the document, people who had parole under these programs “must depart the United States before their parole termination date.”

    If these people do not leave before the parole is terminated, the Department of Homeland Security will “remove” them.

    Homeland Security Secretary [& Bimbo #2] Kristi Noem said that this move “directly” follows Trump’s order and “complements and underscores the Administration’s pivot to a foreign policy that prioritizes the United States’ interests in a secure border …”

    Associated Press: US prepares to deport about 300 alleged gang members to El Salvador

    Due process? Why bother? El Salvador’s government knows how to lock people up without fair trials. Just leave it to them!

    President Donald Trump’s administration will pay El Salvador $6 million to imprison for one year about 300 alleged members of the Venezuelan Tren de Aragua gang, in one of the first instances of the Central American country taking migrants from the United States.

    The agreement follows discussions between El Salvador’s President, Nayib Bukele, and Secretary of State Marco Rubio about housing migrants in El Salvador’s notorious prison. Bukele’s government has arrested more than 84,000 people, sometimes without due process, since 2022 as part of his crackdown on gang violence in the small country.
