DHS has said that migrants sent to Guantanamo are criminals. A mother speaks out about finding that her son had been labeled “the worst of the worst” w/o any proof. My latest for @propublica & @TexasTribune With words by @Perla_Trevizo & @micarosenberg propublica.org/article/trump-…
A must read story by my @propublica colleagues. The IRS is building a vast system to share tax records with ICE and just last month the immigration enforcement agency requested the addresses of 7.3 million taxpayers. propublica.org/article/trump-…

2/ @micarosenberg @Perla_Trevizo @gluissandoval @ronnarisquez @cazamosfakenews and I have been reporting on what the government did to these 238 men, beginning with this story today propublica.org/article/trump-…
1/ We got gov. data showing that the Trump administration knew the majority of Venezuelan men it sent to a prison in El Salvador had no criminal record in U.S. - and that only a handful had been convicted of violent crimes - before calling them all terrorists and deporting them.
NEW: Internal State Department records show that months of warnings have become a reality: The Trump administration’s sudden withdrawal of foreign humanitarian aid has brought about death, violence and unrest. 1/
El Salvador, so far, this month: A leading human rights lawyer is arrested 7 journalists flee the country fearing arrest A peaceful protest is repressed President proposes a "foreign agents" law 16 bus company owners arrested, one dead ... Sounds a lot like Nicaragua to me.

New: A letter to the airline from Connecticut's attorney general cited ProPublica's reporting on ICE Air flight attendants, who said it was unclear how shackled detainees would get off a plane in an emergency. propub.li/3RzFiHG
I covered MS-13 for over a decade: its history, crimes, symbolism, cruelty, pacts with Salvadoran governments. I wrote a book about it. Never, ever, did any of the hundreds of sources I spoke to say anything that would allow us to believe Trump's strange interpretation of tattoos
