another Infamous American Day of an Infamous Month
June 2018
Today, Lady Liberty was brutally attacked by Trump goons
So, far, she suffered being shoved, pinched , crushed into corners. Today she was seized and gut punched, pummeled by blows, and kicked to the ground.
Supreme Court rules for faith-based pregnancy centers, blocks California disclosure law

Supreme Court on Tuesday ruled, 5-4, to uphold President Trump’s order limiting travel from several mostly Muslim countries

Writing a dissent, Justice Sonia Sotomayor quickly zeroed in on the president’s Islamophobia as the animating principal behind the ban.
As the Washington Post’s Aaron Blake noted on Twitter, the ruling goes so far as to allow the president to ban entire nationalities, rather than smaller classes of people.

SCOTUS says Trump has authority to bar not just specific classes of people, but entire nationalities.

ICE Allegedly Assaulted and Locked Up Immigration Attorney Trying to Reunite Mother and Child
An immigration attorney says she was locked up and left with a broken foot after being “knocked to the ground and bloodied” by an Immigration and Customs Enforcement officer while trying to reunite a three-year-old child with his mother at a facility in Kansas City.
Martinez said the officer refused her medical treatment and didn’t allow her to call emergency services.
“This was because he was mad that he had so many cameras filming him in the ICE parking lot as he was deporting my 3-year-old client and his pregnant mother,” she said in the statement.

Trump abducted the undocumented immigrants' children- his goons are flying, and trucking the children 1,000-3,000 miles, away
The parents of the children are moved from the original detention facilities, to new locations, 1,000 miles away.
Not very easy, or convenient to enable re-unification with their children.
Most of the detained children do not have private lawyers. Catholic Charities of New York has a federal contract to provide them all with legal services.Catholic Charities' contract is to represent unaccompanied minors in foster care in New York City. In the past, those were older teens who came to the border alone fleeing persecution or violence and Russell said very few needed foster care because they were usually released to relatives in the U.S. But he called the current situation "unprecedented" because there are now 300 younger children, mostly under the age of 12, in federal foster care in New York City.
"Who is Cayuga,* who is Catholic Charities to put roadblocks in front of a family that says I want my own lawyer?" he said, referring to the fact that the three siblings he's representing have been in foster care for a month and he still hasn't seen or spoken to them. "I find that troubling."

Senior DOJ Official Responsible for Training Immigration Judges
Says 3-And-4-Year-Olds Can Represent Themselves in Court
June 26, 2018
"This is the person in charge of training immigration judges about how to treat children?" deputy legal director at the ACLU of Southern California Ahilan Arulanantham asked

Office of Refugee Resettlement operates a Guantanamo Bay for children- It is a jail, they arrest teen agers that crossed the border on their own, or have been separated from their parents. They are detained for being suspected of being connected to MS-13. Yes, they are tormenting teens.

ORR maintains that most kids spend only a few weeks in custody, usually in low-security shelters, before they are released to parents or sponsors. But under Trump, immigrant children are being held for longer periods of time. In October, an agency spokesman said the average length of detention was 38 days. By June, that time had increased to 49 days. Now it’s up to 56 days. For some kids, it can be much longer. A lawsuit filed by the ACLU of New York identified 45 kids who have been detained for an average of eight months.
