I guess this was one of my first "memes" -- from 2011, right after #IndefiniteDetentionBill was signed into law.

The #StateDepartment revoked ALL Temporary Refugee Status Visa for South Sudanese people...(#Refugees due to a #civilwar that created #SouthSudan with western support, as an end result of #NATO's destruction of #Libya driving non-Sudanese tribes and people over the border in #Sudan) after that ENTITY refused to take back 'citizens' the US was already deporting. Sounds like they're going to end up at #gitmo.

#Gitmo 2 for lower level state enemies

1st they came for "them" and then they came for the "others" ...

People in #ElSalvador endured decades of brutal US installed dictatorships .. and few people in the US stuggled in solidarity to them seeking "democracy".

I have hope on their humanitarian and democratic values to fight for the prisoners.

B/c 'prior restraint'? No Standing? Because they arent @ #gitmo yet? Is that actually a valid legal ruling?

'He noted that no detainees are currently being held at the facility in Cuba that has been used to house military prisoners, including several involved in the 9/11 attacks. Because of that, the harm the challengers alleged is neither “imminent” nor “irreparable” he said..."

Judge denies temporary relief in lawsuits challenging #Guantánamo #migrant detentions

Are the people being held at Guantanamo the “worst of the worst?” It’s hard to tell, since officials are not releasing details either about who they are, or what they’re supposed to have done. Luckily, @ProPublica and Texas Tribune are on the case. So far, their reporters have spoken to the families of two Venezuelan detainees whose only crime is illegal entry, and one who picked up a charge during detention. Those being held have not been able to speak to their families, nor to attorneys. “Never before have people been taken from U.S. soil and sent to Guantanamo, and then denied access to lawyers and the outside world,” said Lee Gelernt, the lead attorney in the ACLU case. “It is difficult to think of anything so flagrantly at odds with the fundamental principles on which our country was built.”

In 1995, a group of Haitian migrant children detained at the #GITMO launched a desperate attempt at freedom -set fire to tents. Many of the children were weak from a hunger strike. US officials regained control & handcuffed >two dozen young ppl & dragged them away.

They were housed in shoddy tent cities, ill-suited for #detention. When storms came -metal poles of the tents collapsed -camps flooded.

🚨Trump wants to house 30K undoc. #immigrants in tents there.

#LosAngeles high school students walk out to protest #ICERaids

by Kevin Reed, February 5, 2025

"Students from multiple high schools in East Los Angeles walked out of class on Tuesday in support of #immigrants’ rights and against the Trump administration’s policies of arrest, detention and #deportation of migrant workers and their families.

"Students at Garfield High School walked out at 10:00 am and marched down Whittier Boulevard, blocking traffic. They waved Mexican flags and carried signs and banners reading '#LuchaContraTrump' [fight against Trump]. Shortly thereafter, students from Oscar De La Hoya, Esteban E. Torres, Bravo Medical and Roosevelt high schools joined the walkout.

"By 1:00 pm, the student demonstration had reached City Hall. A report by CBS News said that student protesters had breached City Hall barriers by 2:30 pm.

"The CBS News report continued:

School officials encouraged students to stay on campus for safety purposes, and to “express their views on campus.” Los Angeles Unified School District Superintendent Alberto M. Carvalho encouraged students not to stay home, and to protest “within the school facilities.”

"The student walkout coincided with a third day of protests in downtown Los Angeles against the Trump administration’s Department of Homeland Security (#DHS), and Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) raids and arrests of thousands of immigrant workers since Trump’s inauguration on January 20.

"Some immigrants have been detained and flown out of the US on military aircraft to countries such Columbia, Venezuela and Guatemala. While the White House is claiming that those being deported are guilty of crimes in the US, the truth is that the migrants being deported on military flights have been caught up in the ICE dragnet regardless of their immigration or legal status.

"Tuesday saw the first US flight of detained migrants to the US naval base at #GuantanamoBay, Cuba, where Trump said a prison camp for 30,000 people is being built. The flight from Fort Bliss in Texas was reported to have a dozen migrants on board, most of whom were from Venezuela and classified as 'high-value' detainees. [I warned you wall that #Trump would start using #Gitmo!]

"The Trump administration, which asserts that the migrants are affiliated with the Tren de Aragua gang, will house these men in cells like those holding the 'enemy combatants' who have been jailed at Guantanamo since the administration of George W. Bush, following the terror attacks of September 11, 2001. The 15 detainees remaining have been held in violation of their democratic rights.

"The demonstrations on Tuesday were part of a nationwide #DayWithoutImmigrants campaign, with workers staying home and students organizing walk-outs. The campaign was initiated on social media and took place in many of the cities where ICE raids have already taken place.

"In #SeasideCalifornia, south of San Francisco, hundreds of people marched on Monday, blocking traffic on Fremont Street and Del Monte Boulevard to protest the Trump administration’s anti-immigration policies and plans for mass deportations.

"Protesters reported that on the previous day Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents were spotted in Seaside and North Salinas. Many Latino-owned stores in Seaside and down the Central Coast were closed. Lupita’s Bakery on Fremont Avenue in Seaside released a statement that said, 'Our decision today was about more than just business; it was about people, unity, and standing for what is right.'"

Now... about your Hypocritical WHINING about Trump sending brown people to #Gitmo, #Democrats... Your #HYPOCRISY is profoundly disgusting.

Trump has stated he is going to sign an executive order to prepare Gitmo to receive about 30,000 deportees.

HEADS UP! If Trump is sending migrants to Gitmo, we social activists should assume we are next and prepare to slug it out.
