US judge bars government from sending Guatemalan #children back, for nowAfter the #US government loaded children onto planes overnight to be sent back to their native #Guatemala, a federal judge temporarily blocked the flights — with the youngsters still inside — as their attorneys said authorities were violating US laws & sending vulnerable #kids all alone into potential peril. #law #immigration #Trump #TheCrueltyIsThePoint https://apnews.com/article/immigration-unaccompanied-children-trump-deportations-guatemala-3790909d69f19fd8cd8edffb6b3215c3?utm_source=onesignal&utm_medium=push&utm_campaign=2025-08-31-Breaking+News

The extraordinary drama played out over predawn hours on a #US holiday weekend [#Trump trying to get away with untoward shit when people’s attention is diverted] & vaulted from tarmacs in Texas to a courtroom in Washington. It was the latest showdown over the Trump admin’s crackdown on #immigration — & the latest high-stakes clash between the admin’s enforcement efforts & legal safeguards that #Congress created for vulnerable immigrants.#law #TheCrueltyIsThePoint

For now, hundreds of Guatemalan #children who arrived unaccompanied will stay while the legal fight plays out over the coming weeks.“I do not want there to be any ambiguity,” said Judge Sparkle L. Sooknanan, who said her ruling applies broadly to Guatemalan #minors who arrived in the #US without their parents or guardians.#law #immigration #Guatemala #Trump #TheCrueltyIsThePoint

Mins after she wrapped up a hastily scheduled hearing Sunday afternoon, 5 charter buses pulled up to a plane parked at the border airport in Texas. Hours earlier, *authorities* walked dozens of passengers—perhaps 50—toward the plane in a part of the airport that’s restricted to #government planes, including #deportation flights. The passengers were wearing colored clothing that is used in government-run #shelters for #immigrant #children.#law #immigration #Guatemala #Trump #TheCrueltyIsThePoint

@Nonilex Those lawyers and that judge need to be remembered for their efforts and their pure humanity. I have no faith that the "for now" will end in anything but tragedy but those who are fighting... They are modern-day saints.
