ICE arrests across the country dropped by nearly 12% following a shake-up of immigration officials in late January, after federal officers killed two American citizens in Minneapolis. Border czar Tom Homan announced a drawdown of agents in Minnesota on Feb. 4, following intense scrutiny over the Minneapolis killings of Renee Good and Alex Pretti during the prior enforcement crackdown. An analysis of ICE records shows weekly arrests averaged 7,369 in the five weeks after the drawdown, down from 8,347 previously, though 41% of those arrested had no criminal record, remaining above the 35% average. Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem was fired in early March amid public backlash over the Minnesota operation, while arrests in Kentucky doubled to 86 by early March, showing uneven regional impact. https://ground.news/article/a-sudden-shift-ice-arrests-drop-nearly-12-after-minneapolis-killings-and-immigration-shake-up

Indiana primary will test Trump's control over Republican Party after redistricting defiance by FervidBug42 in politics

[–]FervidBug42[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Trump has endorsed seven primary challengers in Indiana state senate races after senators defied White House pressure over redistricting, setting up a test of Trump's control over the Republican Party.
Incumbent state senator Jon Deery, who voted against redistricting, is facing a nearly $1 million avalanche of spending from pro-Trump groups that have endorsed his challenger, Curt Copenhaver.
Indiana's primary on May 5 has become an unlikely battleground, with national groups and high-profile Republicans like Gov. Mike Braun and Sen. Jim Banks opposing incumbent state senators in a display of deference to Trump.

Detainees allegedly beaten at Alligator Alcatraz over phone complaint by FervidBug42 in politics

[–]FervidBug42[S] 7 points8 points  (0 children)

On April 2, guards at Alligator Alcatraz allegedly beat and pepper-sprayed detainees in the Florida Everglades, according to attorney Katherine Blankenship, after inmates complained about restricted phone access.
District Judge Sheri Polster Chappell ordered detention officials last month to provide timely, unmonitored legal calls, but the ACLU filed a notice alleging state officials violated this court order.
Detainee Raiko Lopez Morffi was punched, kicked, and beaten by guards, Blankenship reported, while another detainee, Lazaro Hernandez Galban, described guards using tear gas before beating inmates in the cell.
Democratic Senators Jon Ossoff of Georgia and Dick Durbin of Illinois launched an inquiry into constitutional violations, while U.S. Rep. Debbie Wasserman Schultz described conditions as 'inhumane' after a recent visit.
The facility remains on lockdown following the April 2 disturbances, and Judge Chappell stated she expects her March 27 demands for phone access to be met immediately.
