David Shuster reports on the attempt of medical workers in Ontario, California, to assist Denis Guillen as unidentified masked men chased him recently as he was trimming grass outside the clinic:
"They [clinic staff] politely asked the I.C.E. 'agents' (a word that now means anyone with a badge-shaped piece of plastic and an extra Y chromosome) for identification."

"They appear to use a stun gun on one man, put another in a chokehold and can be heard telling Laynez-Ambrosio: 'You’ve got no rights here. You’re a migo, brother.' Afterward, agents can be heard bragging and making light of the arrests, calling the stun gun use 'funny' and quipping: 'You can smell that … $30,000 bonus.'”

"A highway patrol officer asked everyone in the van to identify themselves, then called for backup. Officers with US border patrol arrived on the scene.
Video footage of the incident captured by Laynez-Ambrosio, an 18-year-old US citizen, appears to show a group of officers in tactical gear working together to violently detain the three men*, two of whom are undocumented."

"Later the officers say: 'Goddamn! Woo! Nice!' adding: 'Just remember, you can smell that [inaudible] $30,000 bonus.'”

A brother is torn from his sister. A father arrives for his #immigration hearing with his family, only to find that they will be leaving without him. A woman, seemingly relieved after emerging from her hearing, finds that her life is about to change when she is apprehended by federal officials waiting just outside the door.
These are just some of the moments that happened on a single day in the Jacob K Javits federal building ... in NYC, the largest federal #immigration courthouse in Manhattan.
