"'If it weren't for Miller pushing, this would be dead by now,' the source told me. A new DHS secretary may not be the obstacle many wish it were." Read more to learn why now is the time to be making noise.

Via AP: Warehouse purchases on pause while DHS reviews Noem-era contracts, policies, and proposals.

ANOTHER death in ICE custody. That makes 14 in 2026, and we’re not even done with March yet. This is on track to be the deadliest year for immigration detention in the U.S. ever. Period.

BREAKING: A federal court ruled ICE must provide access to legal counsel for people detained at the Florida detention facility known as "Alligator Alcatraz." The Trump administration cannot deny people their right to an attorney.

So proud to announce that detainees held at Alligator Alcatraz won their preliminary injunction and motion for class certification in challenging lack of access to counsel. www.courtlistener.com/docket/71155... /1

👏🏼The Choctaw Nation has purchased a warehouse in Oklahoma that ICE was trying to buy and use as a detention center. www.projectsaltbox.com/p/choctaw-na...

Jaw-dropping admission by DOJ to court. DOJ admits to having repeatedly made "material mistaken" representations to judge - ICE never had authority (under 2025 Guidance) to conduct arrests at immigration courthouses! DOJ admits court "relied on...prior misrepresentations." DOJ blames ICE (page 2)

NEW: More than 11,000. That’s how many US citizen children have a parent who has been detained under Trump, our new data analysis shows. When Doris Flores was separated from her four-month-old who was still breastfeeding, she turned to her pastor for help. www.propublica.org/article/trum...

ICE considered 3 sites in Dauphin County, PA for detention centers www.pennlive.com/news/2026/03...

Thanks to @nytimes.com for this in-depth coverage of abuse faced by pregnant folks in ICE detention. “It is alarming to hear how these women are being treated,” said Eunice Cho. “When people inform agents that they are pregnant, it’s not really being taken into consideration.” tinyurl.com/5bamt7ew

This is fascinating. Yes, we should investigate corruption and glad handing. But at the end of the day, we should ask why we are spending billions for anyone to profit from the detention of immigrants in the first place.

Breaking: A federal judge has extended a construction halt on a Maryland warehouse the Trump administration is converting into a $215 million immigration detention facility — keeping work stopped through at least mid-April and setting an April hearing that could freeze the project for months more.

ICE has been deporting pregnant and postpartum immigrants. Now we know how many. 19thnews.org/2026/03/ice-... via @19thnews.org

This is really extraordinary. I've never seen anything like this from a government official.

Kudos to these brave architects for refusing to be complicit in Trump’s mass detention of immigrants: www.motherjones.com/politics/202...

JUDGE GRANTS TEMPORARY RESTRAINING ORDER, HALTING PROGRESS ON WILLIAMSPORT, MD. DETENTION WAREHOUSE.

Excellent news!! Kudos to the MD AG’s office on winning this TRO to halt ICE’s detention warehouse in Hagerstown, MD.

ICYMI yesterday, check out this conversation about ICE's detention warehouses. We cover what is going on, who is profiting, and what the dangers are. www.wbur.org/onpoint/2026...

Having some of the most thoroughly redacted thoughts of my life.

Great ruling limiting immigration detention in the Baltimore hold rooms! www.wmar2news.com/news/region/...

Staff at the nation’s largest Immigration and Customs Enforcement detention facility have placed bets on which detainee will be the next to die by suicide, according to new reporting from the Associated Press based on 911 calls and detainee accounts.

The Department of Homeland Security has tried to quietly enlist local Republican leaders to promote the administration’s $38 billion plan to transform industrial warehouses in towns and cities across the country into migrant detention centers.

She quit her job to fight for her father’s freedom—and for everyone else inside Alligator Alcatraz www.motherjones.com/politics/202...

We are heartbroken by the passing of Emmanuel Damas in ICE custody. We do not have any information on Mr. Damas’ specific case at this time beyond that which has been publicly reported, but we do know ICE custody.

Amazing news.

NOEM: Our federal detention centers are held to the highest standards in comparison to other detaining facilities McBATH: Did you just hear me? He has to crawl through mold and feces and bodily fluids just to take a shower. This is absolute lunacy and you know it.

This is the worst case scenario occurring at almost all turns. - Tased and struck over misunderstanding - Stays in jail for a year because of slow wheel of justice and ICE fears - PD screws up in releasing him - Border Patrol release catastrophically screwed up - PD blows off missing persons report

As ICE moves to vastly expand the footprint and blueprint of immigration detention, I can't wait to read this exciting collection: Carceral Architecture, to help us more deeply understand how this built environment can be transformed into something else. www.amazon.com/Carceral-Arc...

BREAKING: Thanks to pressure from residents and local advocates, bipartisan opposition from local state leaders, and opposition from people across the Granite State, plans for an ICE human warehouse in Merrimack have been officially stopped.

Concerned about ICE's $45 billion plan to convert warehouses into immigration detention centers? This is what they'll look like inside. From ICE's plan for the Social Circle, GA facility. Each little dot: a person. www.socialcirclega.gov/home/showpub...

I don’t know who needs to hear Jesse Jackson leading the kids on Sesame Street in this beautiful call-and-response reminding them that every child is somebody, but here it is

Huge congratulations on this truly excellent win--the court's order is a model for so many others going forward!

We’re in court challenging ICE’s denial of access to legal counsel to people held at the detention center cruelly dubbed “Alligator Alcatraz." Access to an attorney is a right, not a privilege.

This is not great www.bloomberg.com/news/feature...

Thanks to John Carlos Frey for having me on his new podcast, The Raid, to discuss the expansion of ICE detention, and ICE's abusive treatment of pregnant individuals in custody. www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZUhe...

Seriously, @people.com has been meeting the moment better than 90% of publications with direct reporting and crystal clear headlines. This is a good way for the low-information voters who are usually detached from the news cycle to get turned around.
