You’ve got to click through to really be able to read this, but note that the box on the top right says this will actually be a two-level facility, with around 5,200 beds on the ground floor (if I’m reading the blurry text right) and around 3,100 on the “mezzanine.”
Before Minneapolis, before Chicago, even before Los Angeles, ICE started its racial profiling sweeps through Nashville, with a willing partner in the Tennessee Highway Patrol.
"This agenda is only going to get worse. The $150+ billion in the One Big Beautiful Bill Act is enough to turn DHS into the size of a small foreign military and to increase the detention system of by the end of this year" - @naynagupta.bsky.social, Policy Director, @immcouncil.org
We can choose not to detain children.
JUST IN: 8th Cir. denies en banc review after panel agreed w/block on Iowa state law seeking to crack down on illegal immigration. Judge Stras, possible Trump SCOTUS pick, dissents. Loken (GHWBush) joins in part storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us... Earlier apnews.com/article/immi...
🚨HOLY CRAP. An ICE whistleblower just revealed a secret memo authorizing ICE officers to break into homes without a judicial warrant, which DHS's own legal training materials say is unconstitutional!
ICE then hid the memo from the public, passing it along by word of mouth and private conversation.
Immigration agents are choking people in America's streets & using tactics against their own policy/training. Many LEO agencies have banned their use

Can ICE be held accountable for killing Renee Good? I try to make sense of the legal issues here. www.americanimmigrationcouncil.org/blog/can-ren...
The shooting is shocking enough but the government's response is off the charts when you consider that this incident is forensically documented on video.
“The move came after officials at Roosevelt High School said armed U.S. Border Patrol officers came on school property during dismissal Wednesday and began tackling people, handcuffed two staff members and released chemical weapons on bystanders.”
New: In September, federal agents swarmed a manufacturing facility in upstate New York, arresting 57 people on alleged immigration violations.
...all without a single arrest warrant.
Behind the unusual administrative warrant ICE used to question everyone:

Occasionally, we get good news on a Friday…
Great piece that cites the practice advisory and thorough case tracking on this issue being done by my colleagues at @immcouncil.org
The Trump administration has a new mass deportation playbook.
We’ve seen it in Los Angeles, Chicago, and Charlotte. And it’s coming to more cities.
@daralind.bsky.social explains 👇
Our legal team helped uncover this document, and has been fighting against the Trump admin's plans to detain and deport thousands of unaccompanied migrant kids. Proud to work with them.
Check out this story below!
Felipe Mendez lost his wife & son when tornadoes swept through Nashville in '23
A May traffic stop landed him in ICE custody, where the single dad was given a choice: "self-deport" or lose his surviving 2 sons to state custody

NEW: Gregory Bovino is exactly who E.B. White — author of 'Charlotte's Web' — warned us about.
DHS named its North Carolina anti-immigrant effort "Operation Charlotte's Web." In 1940, White wrote of the "smell" that "rises" from those who "adjust to fascism" over freedom.
Tonight, at Law Dork:
A Spanish-language immersion daycare in a leafy residential neighborhood on the North Side of Chicago was raided by federal immigration agents on Wednesday and a teacher was taken away www.reuters.com/world/us/chi...
#BREAKING: Iowa’s anti-immigrant law, SF 2340, stays blocked!
The 8th Circuit has affirmed what advocates have said all along: states can’t make their own deportation laws. This ruling keeps thousands of Iowa families safe and together.
A win for dignity, due process, and the rule of law.
BREAKING: DC District Court just granted our emergency motion, filed with @immigrantjustice.bsky.social, stopping ICE from locking up unaccompanied immigrant children in adult detention centers once they turn 18.
Locking up young people in ICE jails only inflicts more harm on vulnerable youth.
Garcia Ramirez v. ICE case caption. ORDER GRANTING MOTION FOR TEMPORARY RESTRAINING ORDER AND TO ENFORCE FINAL JUDGMENT AND PERMANENT INJUNCTION Upon consideration of Plaintiffs' Motion for a Temporary Restraining Order and to Enforce the Permanent Injunction and accompanying Memorandum of Points and Authorities and Declarations (the "Motion"), and all other materials properly before this Court, it is hereby ORDERED that Plaintiffs' Motion is GRANTED; and it is further ORDERED that Defendants and all persons acting under their direction or in concert with them, are hereby ENJOINED from implementing any new directive regarding age-outs; ORDERED that Defendants and all persons acting under their direction or in concert with them, are hereby ENJOINED from detaining any class member in an adult ICE facility in any manner that contravenes the Permanent Injunction; ORDERED that Defendants immediately rescind any determinations to detain based on this directive; ORDERED that Defendants immediately produce that directive, any related policies regarding that directive, and the Age-Out Review Worksheets of any class members who may have been impacted by that directive, including all AORs issued since October 1, 2025. SO ORDERED this 4th day of October 2025.
BREAKING: Federal judge BLOCKS a new ICE policy that went into effect last week to automatically detain unaccompanied migrant children on their 18th birthday when they “age out” of shelter care.
The TRO enforces a court order in a case brought by @immcouncil.org and @immigrantjustice.bsky.social.
The state is fighting to keep information confidential about the Tennessee Highway Patrol’s participation in mass immigration sweeps earlier this year in an argument that mirrors one from Immigration and Customs Enforcement.
In his entire answer he notably never once denies taking the $50,000.
Proud to stand with @tirrcvotes.bsky.social and @icapgeorgetown.bsky.social to challenge this law.
🚨 Today the U.S. Supreme Court rubber stamped EXPLICIT racial profiling during DHS immigration raids. This green lights the worst ICE & CBP practices we are seeing against Latino communities around the country. We can expect this racist enforcement to expand rapidly.🚨
Moreover, as for stops of those individuals who are legally in the country, the questioning in those circumstances is typically brief, and those individuals may promptly go free after making clear to the immigration officers that they are U.S. citizens or otherwise legally in the United States.
This is a paragraph Brett Kavanaugh wrote on his little computer and then sent out into the world:
The stadium Trump is in is named after Arthur Ashe, the tennis legend.
What many people today probably don't know is that Ashe was literally arrested in front of the White House in 1992 for protesting the George H.W. Bush administration's treatment of Haitian refugees. www.upi.com/Archives/199...
