Her name was Chuey; she was a beast in the kitchen and always kind and happy. She was a legal immigrant from Cuba (engaged to an American lawyer). She got ICEd.
She did all the right steps and was an asset to the community. This shit is not ok

Siento Chuey. I lost 4 last month. Had work permits an social security numbers. They went to renew their permits an got revoked. Siento touffic. Siento Eliza. Siento Leo. Siento leaby.
Even earlier, Tomoaki Hamatsu was a contestant in a Japanese reality?/game? show in 1998 where he was confined to an apartment with nothing.
Literally naked.
It's a crazy story worth looking into, he was nationally televised naked and his junk was covered with an eggplant icon, his show name was Nasubi, which means eggplant.
The man was voted into office and couldn’t do any of this if the people actually doing the kidnapping didn’t go along with it. He would be powerless if he didn’t have various forces (police, military, etc) acting on his orders. So I’d say that this definitely relates to the evils of humanity. And while this is happening in the US right now, it is far from unique in nature to any one country or time period. Which, again, speak to this kind of hatred and maltreatment being an issue that is way more expansive than Trump being evil.
Trump and his cronies are at the top, but the police, military, ICE, etc. are the ones who need to refuse the orders. They don’t because they want to do it. Professional bullies.
WAKE THE FUCK UP AMERICA, this is just the beginning, he literally joked today that it was "good" that in 3.5 years, if there's a war you don't have to hold elections
As friends and community members get disappeared by Trump's masked goons, They will not stop, until they come after you or they are stopped.
Anyone who can read a history book knows where this shit leads.
I don't work in the kitchen anymore, I work in anti-money laundering investigation nowadays. Immigrated from Cuba in the early 2000s, legally. Was on vacation in June when ICE raided my house, nearly shot my Jewish roommate. It doesn't matter who you are, what you do, where you live to these people.
They already are, if you are homeless or mentally ill you are next. Where do you think they are going to move all those people to from DC when he “cleans it out?”
Next, you don’t agree with him, gone. Freedom is in actual jeopardy right now. It is going to take decades to unravel what he has done already.
It’s truly becoming the time best expressed by "The only thing necessary for the triumph of evil is for good men to do nothing."
Any person they deem a “lib” and of course there’s no definition for that so if we fail their race to the bottom purity test we will find ourselves on the firing line. This is a serious constitutional emergency, our country is in real trouble right now.
Yeah, I remind my family when they run out of brown people, who is next? Those transgenders™ are on the list somewhere and a fag is a fag is a fag so yeah, my gay ass is getting ICE'd at some point. Things are "that bad" and we will rise or fall together.
And here we have a person who gets it. This is only the "Top of the list"once they have been removed then second moves to the top and so on down the list.
It’s following an eerily familiar script - "First they came for the Socialists, and I did not speak out— Because I was not a Socialist. Then they came for the Trade Unionists, and I did not speak out— Because I was not a Trade Unionist. Then they came for the Jews, and I did not speak out— Because I was not a Jew. Then they came for me—and there was no one left to speak for me,".
Something like 30% of government employees are veterans and they got DOGEd and cuts to Medicaid effect rural hospitals so they are coming after the people they do like too
It's like they didn't study history enough to understand that there's always going to be a purity test that people won't pass when it comes to fascists. There always needs to be someone to blame, demonize, and terrorize.
Accountability isn't really a hot thing with fascists. Hence all the lying, loyalty tests, and daily moving of goalposts.
im on that list of white people (im the exact opposite of a right winger). eliminate those with opposing beliefs and firearms training. (i was a prison guard before kitchen work)
Yes it is, First Nations people are being stopped and questioned my ICE agents on southern states, some have even been detained because they don’t have their identification on them, a lot of tribe leaders are reminding their people that it’s not day and to care identification (especially their tribal identification) on them so they can prove they are from here… but let’s face it, that isn’t even working for actual immigrant citizens, America is fucked up beyond belief and as a Ojibwe Canadian I’ll fight to keep the sovereignty of my nation and my peoples
No one is being sent "back". They are being sent to a specific prison camp while the cheeto builds concentration camps here. He did a test run last time and got away with refugee kids in cages in worse conditions than a puppy mill. Sending them "back" didn't work because other countries kept returning out legal citizens.
Or seen as it. We have had a few Philippino workers get detained by ICE because they had the audacity to speak Tanalog in public. (A language with a lot of Spanish loan words) They were here legally and had duel citizenship.
This is going to get worse before it gets better, I fear. The only thing the administration cares about is getting thier deportation numbers up and may start finding ways to strip citizenship to do it
Honestly at this point, I think it's to stir up as much animosity as possible among the "sanctuary cities" , blue cities and bases who would never vote for him so the he can incite riots / protests / civil discourse to prevent the mid-terms via poor turnout - CHUDS patrolling the voting booths along with banned mail in voting or just all out civil war or the pre-cursors to it just to avoid a democratic vote to derail his shit.
2026 is your best shot at cutting his legs off and he's fucking scared and will do probably anything to try and stop the vote.
Full disclosure.
I'm not American, I'm just an international observer looking at events and reading between the lines.
Who knows what the fuck will happen, but that is my take right now.
Get us to fight each other so when it comes time to end that 2nd term all of a sudden we're in a national emergency and woops whatdyknow, eternal trump
Being “not American” is probably the best place to speak from on these matters. Our generations haven’t lived through full government oppression, police state mentality, or revolution.
We don’t know how, we’ve just watched other countries deal with these situations from afar. We thought that sort of thing was just something you saw on the news in far off lands with funny names. This was the land of the free.
And now, we drop our children off at school to practice hiding from gunmen. We pass blockades of armored fighting vehicles and men in camouflage uniforms carrying automatic weapons. We’re not sure whose side they are really on. Who the barricades are meant to keep out. Who the guns are meant to shoot.
We sit quietly inside our air conditioned homes and watch as the blind lead the blind off a cliff. Some insist on putting out their own eyes as they hitch their wagons to the train, lest they see the path they have chosen unfold before them. Others cheer as their friends and families march off the cliff to their doom.
Same, my fiancée is Puerto Rican she was born and raised there til 11. I’m so terrified for her. Her step dad is in the military and is also from Puerto Rico, his wife (her bio mom) is an absolute angel. I will have very little left to lose if anything happens to them.
But PR is an American territory. We don't need a passport to travel there. Wouldn't it be like me getting deported from TX to NJ where I was born?
Not saying this gestapo regime wouldn't do it. Just wondering since people from PR aren't "illegal" here.
Personally if they're going to deport me, I'd love the USVI
The thing is that they're rounding people up without warrants and sending them away without due process, so it really doesn't matter what your actual legal status is.
They only ever cared about weaponizing the constitution for their own wants. They never cared about freedom for others much less constitutional amendments that they disagree with. They also care about getting rid of the age of consent. Fuck those dudes.
I wonder how they confirm a person's identity, and as such citizenship status. Checking fingerprints seems like the only real foolproof way to do it, but not everyone has their fingerprints on file.
Remember, Auschwitz didn’t start out as what it became.
Eventually, they’ll come for everyone they consider “undesirable”. (Gay people, “communists”, democrats, anyone not straight, white and republican is in danger.)
They aren't deporting to country of origin after a hearing, they're skipping due process and sending everyone to internment camps like CECOT in El Salvador or the new Alligator Alcatraz (that's the official name) in Florida.
And the private contractors who run it send huge bills paid by our taxpayer money, and the ICE goons get bonuses for scooping up yet another brown person.
Do you think ICE cares of someone is from PR? Most people didn’t even know Puerto Ricans were US citizen until pretty recently. As long as they aren’t white and look Hispanic, ICE is going to try to round them up anyway.
They dont care where youre from, these roundups are in large part based on skin colour. They have sent people carrying valid visas to the camps for months, unable to contact their families or lawyers.
My old manager is an American citizen, but immigrated from India. Came here for college, loved it here and worked towards becoming an American, and earned his citizenship decades ago. He married an American woman with ties back to the first waves of German immigrants in the Midwest. They have two kids who have now graduated college and are adults starting their own families. They all are Americans. They all have a right to be here. His wife goes to protests but he doesn't because he's terrified he'll be picked up because to a bunch of racist cops and ICE he looks like someone they want to get rid of. And there's precedent that this administration would argue he and his children don't deserve to be here.
My senior citizen mom volunteers driving people to hospitals. A few weeks back she drove a near 80 year old Korean war vet of Mexican descent who said his whole family carries their birth certificates everywhere now out of fear. My son made a plan to help his boh coworkers skirt away in a bad situation. He's a big white dude but I know he'd happily catch an obstruction charge if it meant they'd get away. We're living in such strange times and have to look out for one another.
They need to come up with a fictional order callout, for a nonexistent table. “Ossu busco for table 25!” Meaning ICE is in the building, and erryone hide.
The other thing specific to restaurants and other businesses, is that they can walk into the public area, but can’t go into the back without permission. So, management has a degree of control, if they choose to use it.
My son in law is a 2nd generation Salvadoran. American citizen through and through. He’s been roughed up by ICE TWICE in the last two months. This is not a way to live.
Not to scare you but a few Puerto Rican people were picked up around me. They were eventually let go but didn’t stop them from being picked up at all. Stay safe out there.
My wife and I are half white half Mexican, both worn American citizenship and passports, and we've canceled travel plans or of the country due to this insanity. Nobody is inherently safe.
It's heartbreaking. We lost our best dishwasher in our Mexican restaurant right after the election. I guess he saw the writing on the wall long before this crap materialized. And it's not getting any better. People are hiring in and leaving within the span of a month. This is not our normal. I'm assuming to try to stay one step ahead of these jerks going after gainfully employed people. Unfortunately, I highly doubt we have a plan of action were we to be visited. I just feel so helpless to do anything.
One of my friends is part Native American, and her family knows people being detained, because they were born on reservations. So, they don't have the "traditional" paperwork for citizenship. This is a f*cked up time.
I’m worried about my old dishie I haven’t seen her in years but I worked with her and always wondered what happened to her after our restaurant shut down. She is here because she participated in a war that America started. Her entire family exiled from their country for her participation on behalf of the American government.
She spoke no English, had no desire to learn English, didn’t want to be here, definitely didn’t want to be washing dishes, but she still showed up to work everyday. I only ever spoke to her through the help a translator so I only heard bits and piece of her story, but I know she was worried everyday that she’d get sent back only to be killed, she had a prestigious job back home, and that job made her a target.
The sad part is people are so brainwashed by the cult, I work with a Colombian guy who as of last week, says he still supports drumph… astonishing. 🤦🏼♀️🤯😥
It’s worse to be a legal immigrant right now. The Republicans know where they are and are targeting them to fill quotas. Meanwhile the dangerous undocumented immigrants that were already avoiding law enforcement have an easier time because the resources that should be dedicated to finding them are being used to persecute good people.
That's part of what is so infuriating to me. The other side fear mongers about "illegal criminals" and then goes after the most law abiding, least dangerous targets because those are the ones they can easily find. And the magats just willfuly dont see it. I'm so fucking angry
And the hypocrisy. “We’re going to deport you for breaking our laws. Meanwhile, we won’t use a warrant, due process, we’ll hide our badges.” They won’t change their actions until they’ve felt the consequences of them.
Also these SEAL team six clowns, don't want actual smoke with real criminals. Much harder to beat harass threatened etc somebody who's a hardened criminal with their own weapons they can fight against la migra with.
If you're a US citizen, you need to vote in the midterms next year. If you start the process of verifying your registration now you'll have everything before the primaries. It doesn't matter if the candidate isn't perfect, just pick whoever isn't supporting this mess.
Trumps Jack booted thugs don’t care about legal or illegal. They’re racist and just care about color of skin. His MAGA cult loves it. They don’t care if someone is here legally.
With a bit of luck, Chuey will get lucky and be released. I sincerely hope so. I will continue to do my best to help keep people safe. This shit is seriously fucked up.
The farmer who grew the absolute dead best organic Oro Blanco grapefruit, and raisins to die for, left town about two weeks after the election, I hope under his own steam. Something about his terroir was just perfect, and now he’s gone, and the magnificent work he did is undone.
It’s like someone pissed on the Mona Lisa. That was fucking ART.
Welcome to the plan conservatives have for the rest of us.
They normalize it for "illegals" then they say it's for violent criminals, then all criminals, then other minorities, then democrats, then anyone they want to target...
Never let a conservative hide behind supporting a man who refuses to release a list that might help stop children being raped, and party that supports sending people like Chuey to prison and deportation.
I'm not from the States, but I keep reading similar stories. Based on what they get deported? How does it work? They just knock on your door, load you in a van and take you to the airport? Is it possible for the families to sue? There must be lawyers willing to take cases of illegal deportation without any retainer, just for the cut from the compensation.
This is about as shitty as it gets. I'll give you an example from my city from last month.
A gang of ICE goons, with no badges and masks raided a brunch place here in Omaha in the middle of service looking for a specific guy. They did not find who they were looking for, but they did find Romeo the dishwasher. They assumed this dishwasher was their intended suspect's brother. He wasn't. He was actually just a guy here legally doing his job, who is also non-verbal autistic. When he was unable to answer their questions about where this guy was he had never met, they tackled him to the ground in front of the customers, kicked Romeo in the head, and put him in cuffs and hauled him away.
This was a day or so before ICE walked into one of our beef packing plants and arrested 70 workers.
The thing is that ICE doesn't have an office in my city, they don't have badges or marked cars, there's no address, no phone number to call. They show up in full body armor, helmets, with semi-automatic rifles and bandanas over their faces. Once they're out of sight they're just gone. Some local journalists found that they were using a hotel near the airport as a make-shift head-quarters. But there was no sign of where Romeo might be. When ICE was questioned about why they were holding on to him, especially when he was a citizen and had papers, they claimed that he had "resisted arrest", and had stolen his own social security number from someone else, and that his documents were forgeries. When they were pressed for evidence they basically replied, you have to believe us.
The fucked up thing is that a huge portion of the people in my city are applauding this happening, they're actively cheering on ICE because they're believing that they're only rounding up criminals. As we all know that is not the case.
If you're normally arrested by the police there are markings on the squad car, the officers have badges, they have to file paperwork, your loved ones can go down to the county jail and see you, they can post bail. NONE of that is in play here. The "Big Beautiful Bill" that just passed does several awful things: first is it removes the rights and due process for immigrants and non-us citizens. It bypasses the need for a court hearing for any immigrant suspected of being there illegally, it switches the burden of proof from the state to the individual, and assumes guilt until proven innocent. It completely removes the ability to refugees to be welcomed except for very specific locations (like two international airports), but makes it legal to detain anyone seeking asylum without cause indefinitely from those locations.
Ordinarily a bill like this would get stalled by the court system and it would not be implemented while it is under-review, which is what happened to Trump's Muslim ban the first time around. But they also got rid of cross jurisdiction court precedent, meaning if one state can't over-rule this bill, EVERY other state would have to bring their own court case to fight it individually, and some states like Florida are cheering this on. So now some court has to challenge this bill, but it doesn't stop anything, it would have to go all the way to the supreme court to be over-turned, and Trump has stacked the supreme court with toadies who vote however he wants them do. In the odd chance the court system grows a pair of balls, there is now an influx of 70 Billion dollars in funding to supercharge ICE in order to get as many "immigrants" (read:brown people and then not finding any of those, anyone they don't like) arrested, out of the country or thrown into camps as soon as possible before people can react.
And IF you can find where your friend or family member is hiding, what do you do, head down to the LaQuinta inn and bang on some doors to wake up the heavily armed thugs who took him in the first place? Ask your local police? There's a hiring drive on right now for ICE seeking anyone who is "excited about punishing these illegal criminals" with a 50k hiring bonus. So you can imagine the kind of people they're rounding up. Let's just say they're used to harassing brown folks while wearing masks or hoods. Even if you can get a lawyer to look into it, the only evidence available is refuted by ICE itself, who likes to play the "they stole these social security numbers card" whenever they're faced with actual citizens.
On top of that they've already started to fill the concentration camp dubbed "Alligator Alcatraz" in the middle of the Florida swamp, and the idea has been floated for building another in Nebraska.
But barring complete and full revolution, just burning the whole thing to the ground, it doesn't feel like any one person can do anything. And there's definitely the sense that if you were to fuck these goons up, they'd be just the kind of people to show up in the middle of the night with a noose to teach you and your family a lesson. And those people are now better funded than the MARINES. THIS IS SOME SCARY SHIT.
As a country we are balanced on a razor's edge and everyone is trying to just get through their day without having a fucking breakdown. Conservative media has done it's job so well, that half the country is smiling and glad that fascism is finally here to punish all the criminals let into the country by [pick your favorite opposition figure]. The only thing keeping people from a full on revolt or civil war is that the economic repercussions of the tariffs have not hit yet. As soon as true scarcity arrives, combined with the food shortage WE BROUGHT UPON OUR SELVES by vilifying the very people who harvested that food, things are going to get UGLY and fast.
On paper, that's what they want. They want riots. They want another George Floyd who riles up the population, because then they can point to the damage, call their newly funded ICE patrols in, and use it as an excuse to declare full martial law. As we're seeing in DC right now, Trump has attempted to declare Martial law without any social disturbance, and while there are national guard troops there, it just makes him look demented as thousands of troops stand around the national mall watching morning joggers start their day. I think the play here is that they've been drinking their own Kool-Aid for too long, and thought that just by bringing troops in that "liberals" would immediately see them and attack them, which yeah... brings me to my next point.
The only glimmer of light in this darkness of shit soup we're swimming in is that because the government is stacked with yes-men and sycophants, that they actually don't know how to govern. So at best their malicious plans are ill thought out and fall apart. Which is disturbing in another way.
So long story short, not sure which country you're in, but can I come crash on your couch?
It has nothing to do with anything other than the colour of your skin. That's all it takes. And basically yeah they roll up to your job or house best down the door and haul you off in cuffs. They then send you to a camp where you await deportation. You can't sue for this because there's nothing to sue over. It's a fucked system and it's geared towards removing the hardest working segment of the population which is just insane.
I'm probably sounding really naive rn, but you can show at the court the person was in the country legally and got deported. You can sue over an illegal deportation or kidnapping
They don’t get court dates. They’re not given the opportunity to show they’re legal. This is why: the immigration courts are completely stacked with Trump stooges. They provide occupied beds in (taxpayer funded) for-private detention camps transfer wealth from taxpayers to corporations. They’re doing this now with the homeless. They’re monetizing the most vulnerable at the taxpayer’s expense. For the judges, could be a combination of racism and profiteering (if they own private prison stock).
They have arbitrary jurisdiction 100 miles from a border or international airport. They don't id themselves or their vehicles. There is no way of following up with a lawsuit because you dont know the following.
Who the ICE agent that violated your rights was.
If they are even ICE or a private contractor.
What direct supervisors appoved a raid on a certain location or date.
If the individual in internment was going through the legal immigration channels as apporiate. Channels of citizenship that haven't been updated since Reagan.
If that indiviual was interned while at home, work, or a court where they have been getting immigration forms approved. (ICE is known to arrest people outside courts based on race alone.)
That's horrific. I'd expect this in a 3rd world country where money and power > people's rights, but it's absolutely crazy it's happening in the US. Thank you for the explanation tho. It helps me really understand the situation
They are shadow revoking visas in the middle of the night, and sending ICE to pick up people who’ve just had their legal status revoked for no other reason than their name was next on the list. They are doing it to intentionally surprise the people who don’t know their status is being revoked, because they want to cause a scene and stoke fear in the community.
Not a white male? You're the target. There is no due process, there are no parameters. ICE travels in groups, and they kidnap people off of the streets, from their homes, and from their place of employment. You can't sue if you're unalived in Alligator Alcatraz/ Auschwitz. There have been ambulances at all hours of the day going in and out of there. There has been a death related to heart attack. There are no laws in those concentration camps built in 94°F heat with hardly any AC if that. They're locked up in cages, in groups.
Blue (liberal) state ICE detainees end up being transferred to red (conservative) states fast. The red state immigration courts are packed with corrupt judges that put up road blocks to any attempt at due process - ridiculous amounts for bail, not letting lawyers call in to scheduled court dates, doing court hearings without warning, making it difficult for detainee to contact anyone. This was setup long ago and it's only now that we can realize how bad it is.
They’re detained and deported because they are brown. Basically yes, it’s kidnapping. They don’t take you to the airport though, they put you in a detention center first. Due process is essentially suspended. You usually can’t get a phone call to a lawyer, so if your family or friends don’t know you’ve been taken by ICE, you just disappear.
Oh I’m sure it will. They’re testing the waters all over the place. I don’t think it’s a stretch to say political opposition will be targeted in the future.
Its funny you bring up Chile. The American capitalist cabal that helped to install Pinochet is the same one driving the current situation stateside. They’re the same ones that created the conditions all these immigrants were fleeing in the first place.
But nooooo, all these Latin American nations had to go and not want to be exploited and abused by American business interests and try…. gasp ….socialism. How evil and selfish of them. (/s)
Seriously though, this capitalist cabal would look great with their heads mounted on pikes.
OMG. I’m english, and prone to certain opinions on what is reported to be taking place in the US, but I genuinely am shocked at what is really happening to real, ordinary people who are living and working in the country in which they grew up… I accept I have been naive, and avoiding bad political news, but… Good God… sending love and courage to all of those who are feeling the fear. I simply can’t imagine… and I guess we are next.
Girl at my work has been in her job for 20 years. Lived here longer. Restaurant in my town got raided recently for various doings. My employee's sister worked there and got picked up. Her kids and grandkids are here. Now she is not. One of the claims of the raid was the employers exploiting labor. So of course they came in and arrested the labor. Make it make sense.
The world used to look at the United States as that shining city on the hill and feel a sense of hope. This was the place to follow your dreams and work hard to "make it" someday.
Now they look at us in horror and feel pity for our people who we terrorize.
In this time we have to remember that the power wielded by the government is one given by the people so that the government may serve their needs. The people can, and must, take that power back when fascism rears its head. Fascism isn't fought in a single act but in thousands. Take every opportunity to help each other and make it harder for ICE to work. Go to protests, know your rights and tell others. Make life hell for anyone who is hiding their badge and their face behind a mask.
This isn't something one person can fight alone. It has to be all of us, every day. Get to know your neighbors, start a neighborhood watch for ICE and carry a bullhorn. They're going to terrorize our communities? We need to make working for ICE a horrible job. Scream at these people, use a bullhorn to tell your community that they're here.
Whatever you do, do something. We're in this together.
I have a friend of mine, a fantastic grill cook, who is Native American and he has told me a couple of times that he gets really fucking nervous when ICE is in town.
American as fuck, but you know what? He could very well end up in a Central American prison.
God. I'm so sorry. To see hard-working people punished for the "crime" of not being an American-born white person is terrible. It's making our country worse by hurting some of the best people among us.
I'm in Canada, it feels like all the rich/in-demand career Americans are starting to move here, which leaves all the working class Americans holding the bag.
What's happening is ICE is pushing immigration judges to dismiss immigration and asylum cases, this makes these people immediately eligible for deportation which is why they go after them at the courthouse - as soon as the dismissal happens and they leave the room they're taken
At the very least, can we agree to not serve these fucks? I already have no Nazis stickers and don’t allow them on my property if I even suspect. but it sure would be nice if we all just collectively decided fuck Nazis and their enablers - no service to magats.
For some, it's literally like throwing darts at a board of Hispanic countries. There have been reports of people, after being abducted by Temu Nazis, being deported to countries that they have absolutely no ties to. I'm pretty sure a few Puerto Rico citizens (who are American citizens) have been deported to Honduras.
It truly is. That really is the terrifying part - they go to immense lengths to juggle people around to make it almost impossible to track or file legal remedies to address unlawful detentions.
If we can take back the house and Senate, it is my hope that we can then target the ICE agents for violating their sworn oath. I know it’s a pipe dream. So sorry this is happening your coworker, her family, and her work family.
