A Week of Immigration ‘Red Flags’ From the Trump Administration

Summary
Last week, the Trump administration intensified its immigration enforcement efforts, raising serious concerns about violations of basic legal rights and due process for non-citizens. A federal judge in Massachusetts ruled that the administration unlawfully attempted to deport individuals to South Sudan without proper notice or the chance to present claims of possible persecution. Similarly, another court rejected the use of the 1798 Alien Enemies Act due to a lack of due process.

The administration also launched its controversial “self-deportation” program, offering financial incentives to immigrants — including U.S. citizen children — to voluntarily leave the country, raising ethical and legal questions. At the same time, ICE began arresting non-citizens at immigration court hearings immediately after their cases were dismissed, undermining the integrity of the court system and deterring attendance.

Additionally, the Department of Homeland Security rapidly expanded its partnerships with state and local law enforcement under the 287(g) program, allowing local officers to carry out federal immigration enforcement with minimal oversight. The revived “Task Force Model” permits local police to arrest immigrants in the community, a practice previously ended due to its negative impact on public safety and trust. These policies have already led to tragic consequences, such as a reported case in Tennessee where fear of deportation prevented someone from calling 911, possibly contributing to an infant’s death.

Overall, these developments illustrate the administration’s aggressive push for mass deportations with little regard for legal limits or human rights, signaling the likelihood of further harsh measures to come.
