Many are challenging their detention using habeas corpus filings only to be arrested again, in violation of court orders
ICE rapidly re-arresting immigrants released after winning court petitions Many are challenging their detention using habeas corpus filings only to be arrested again, in violation of court orders Cris Seda Chabrier in New York Mon 2 Nov 2026 07.00 EST Immigrants who have been granted release from detention after winning habeas corpus petitions in court are being re-arrested by US Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE).
The Guardian has identified at least 20 cases nationwide relating to people who were detained after being released on habeas corpus petition in the last year, according to court records, attorneys and media reports.
Increasing arrests and detentions have led to immigrants filing more than 91,000 habeas petitions as they seek to challenge their detentions, according to research by ProPublica. More petitions have been filed since 25 January than during the past three presidential administrations, including Trump’s first term, combined, the outlet found.
A petition of habeas corpus – Latin for “you shall have a body” – challenges in a federal court the government’s right to hold someone in custody while their main legal case is proceeding.
It is chilling to watch all of this, and even more chilling to see that no one does anything. History repeats itself.
Her thesis is that Eichmann was actually not a fanatic or a sociopath, but instead an average and mundane person who relied on clichéd defenses rather than thinking for himself,[16] was motivated by professional promotion rather than ideology, and believed in success which he considered the chief standard of “good society”.[17] Banality, in this sense, does not mean that Eichmann’s actions were in any way ordinary, but that his actions were motivated by a sort of complacency which was wholly unexceptional.[18]
“We can sort of win the battle, but we’re going to lose the war. Because in the long run, they’re still going to be able to do what they want to do, which is arrest people and hold them for long periods of time,”
You know, because fascism. Warrantless searches, denial of the right to trial, deporting random brown people to random countries just to appease the cruelest intentions of their cult leader.
Jesus fucking christ go vote.
Its go vote, get a gun, train on red dummies for when the time comes.
People have lost faith that there is any candidate willing to fix or even slow this.
Why though? just don’t vote Republican.
For me, it was when Biden’s whole term he didn’t do much to stop Trump or roll back any of the crazy stuff he enacted after being elected on a mandate to do exactly that. I guess specifically the fact that nothing happened to Trump after J6 made me lose all hope in the US political/justice system.
Like I’ll still vote for Democrats because it’s easy, but I have very little faith that it’ll improve anything.
Why have people lost faith?
because the two party system is generally flawed. The republicans take two huge steps back and then they let the democrats do nothing for 4-8 years before continuing their path towards totalitarianism.
