Just asked FETTERMAN if he had heard back from Trump re: their January convo at Mar-a-algo about Dreamers. "Leave me alone!" the senator exclaimed. Fetterman's wife, Gisele, was a Dreamer from Brazil.

UPDATE: Gitmo families still haven't heard from their loved ones who are now said to be in Honduras. Some are demanding answers from ACLU (aka "Akloo") who they said has yet to deliver results for the migrants. This is a developing story.

Heartbreaking story. Jocelynn Rojo Carranza, age 11, took her own life after her bullies constantly threatened to call ICE to have her Hispanic parents deported. Her story is one of the many real human consequences of Trump’s anti-immigrant rhetoric. youtu.be/vwMGdnM24Cw?...

Who is Tom Homan? Like many MAGA chappies, Trump's camera-hungry Border Czar is a grifter hocking lies and fear mongering about migrants. READ this brilliant exposé from November in @codastory.bsky.social —

Oh wait, where are the gotaway totals? Every day during the last administration, Border Patrol chiefs would list their “gotaways.” Are they saying there are none? There are always “gotaways.” Just another sign of the bullshit. www.reuters.com/world/us/us-...

This is why you fight these cowards. The moment you stand up to them, they crumble. Homan has nothing. The Fourth Amendment is clear and I am well within my duties to educate people of their rights. He can threaten me with jail and call names all he wants. He’s got nothing else.

There are sooo many good reasons to subscribe to The Washington Post. Their immigration reporting, for example, continues to absolutely slay. I know some of you are still sore about the election, but fr leave all that aside for great work like this: www.washingtonpost.com/immigration/...

I think what a lot of senators (at least Dems) didn’t fully realize was that even the relatively less batshit nominees this time around were going to lie to get confirmed and then just do whatever MAGA BS their masters demand afterward.

There nearly 435 million South Americans. Incredible that The New York Time, in all its glory, couldn't find one to run its Andean Bureau. The more I learn about the Grey Lady's business, the clearer it becomes why they perform so poorly on the immigration beat.

FWIW, @MigrantInsider is going to break a lot more news this week. With Congress away, we will be reporting from the White House. We are a shoe-leather outlet that does all the legwork on our stories. So please, be loud when unethical press like Hamed Aleaziz steals our work.

Thanks to everyone still reaching out about NYT's Hamed Aleaziz stealing my story without attribution. Of course it's disappointing because Hamed used to be an okay reporter. But on a positive note: big thanks to better outlets citing @migrantinsider.com. We see you 🙏🏼
