Glad you're on top of this, but why didn't the editor put a link to the story about Castillo in the text where he's mentioned? https://www.nytimes.com/2025/02/11/world/americas/luis-castillo-venezuela-migrant-guantanamo-bay-trump.html

Speaks volumes to how carefully the whole thing wasn't set up. Deport first, legality and due diligence later.

Yick Wo v. Hopkins is case law that reflects directly on immigrants/their protections under the 14th Amendment. It established that if an immigrant were the subject of a foreign government (emperor of China), he/she was still subject to the protections of the 14th when in the US. Guantanamo = US.

What’s the basis for that request? Did they have lawyers for those held in Auschwitz? Dachau?

The legal representation they’re entitled to under the law? Gosh, wouldn’t that be nice…

The US has no legal right to detain migrants at Guantanamo. 1903 was illicit unequal treaty conditioning US troop withdrawal and independence on Guantanamo "for use as coaling or naval stations only, and for no other purpose." https://history.state.gov/historicaldocuments/frus1903/d331

Realize that vulnerable immigrants are the first tenants of Guantanamo. Expect Trump enemies, adversaries of MAGA America & other political enemies to be next to be transported to "America's tropical Gulag"! Including you & me! Putin should franchise the concept to other right wing radical nations.
