6/6 For a regime that claims to be interested in business, this foolish move that pokes massive holes in their claims; U.S. colleges make a LOT of money providing education to students visiting from other countries, & this action will cut into that deeply. https://twitter.com/AbayaMiriam/status/1280211711379804161">https://twitter.com/AbayaMiri...

2/3 "This rule represents the single broadest attack on the concept of asylum in the U.S. because it would eliminate almost all options for a person to seek humanitarian protection," Aaron Reichlin-Melnick, policy counsel American Immigration Council https://www.cbsnews.com/news/trump-asylum-rule-public-health-coronavirus">https://www.cbsnews.com/news/trum...

It is good that this was blocked. It is insane that they still tried to implement it DURING THE PANDEMIC!

The cruelty is the point, every time.

1/2 The Trump regime sees moments like this pandemic not as a time to pull together, but a time to create even greater atrocities while the nation is distracted.

1/5 ICE and GEO can& #39;t be bothered with little issues like having to quarantine infected immigrants away from healthy ones, so they& #39;ve adopted Trump& #39;s tactic: just don& #39;t test at all. No cases then, right? https://twitter.com/NewSanctuaryNYC/status/1291309957393063937">https://twitter.com/NewSanctu...

Trump& #39;s regime has expelled about 8,800 unaccompanied migrant children intercepted at the U.S.-Mexico border since March 20 under rules seeking to limit the spread of the novel coronavirus in the United States.

2/3 Whistleblower Dawn Wooten, a nurse at the Irwin County Detention Center (GA), says ICDC consistently used a particular gynecologist – outside the facility – who almost always opted to remove all or part of the uterus of his female detainee patients.
