Official claimed Jose Hermosillo, who was visiting Arizona, was ‘without the proper immigration documents’

Summary

Immigration officials detained a US citizen for nearly 10 days in Arizona, according to court records and press reports.

On 8 April, a border patrol official found Hermosillo “without the proper immigration documents” and claimed that the young American had admitted entering the US illegally from Mexico.

On 17 April, a federal judge dismissed his case. “He did say he was a US citizen, but they didn’t believe him.”

“Under the Trump administration’s theory of the law, the government could have banished this U.S. citizen to a Salvadoran prison then refused to do anything to bring him back,” Mark Joseph Stern, a legal analyst for Slate, wrote on Bluesky. “This is why the Constitution guarantees due process to all. Could it be more obvious?”

    I like how you are trying to steer the conversation in one way, in some sort of philosophical ideology. However, I don’t care. Fuck Nazi’s, doesn’t matter if their a struggling mom, idiot on the internet pretending to force a conversation, or ICE. Fuck em all.

    And oh yeah, I totally have so much power as an individual to drive the piss ass politics in a country of 330 million. Right, it’s my fault?

    Maybe your knowledge of Nazi Germany is lacking, because not everyone was a fascist there either… those people went to concentration camps or were killed. Guess what? My ass will eventually be on the chopping block, you evasive fool. I know I’ll be fighting when the time comes, you stay at home, pretend to be righteous over wherever you live and close the fucking blinds bootlicker.

      and I like how you’re trying to steer the conversation in exactly the same way but in a different direction.

      I mean seriously, you call the hypothetical person in some low level clerical/administrative role a fascist because they won’t quit because it’s simply not that easy to do so, yet in the same breath you say “I totally have so much power as an individual to drive the piss ass politics in a country of 330 million” – hypocrite much?

      Would you say you’re taking issue with someone making a broad, generalized statement about a group of people based on one commonality?
