Lawyers representing immigrants being swept up by the Department of Homeland Security are raising the alarm that federal authorities are deploying new tactics to fast-track deportations.According to New York Times reporting, federal officials have begun pushing dozens of additional cases onto court dockets on specific days to rapidly process asylum and other immigration claims. The secret acceleration started without any public notification from the administration.The impact has been dramatic, observers told the Times. Some immigration judges have seen their caseloads double and triple, raising concerns that cases are being processed too quickly for proper legal review.The Executive Office for Immigration Review, the Justice Department agency overseeing the immigration court system, defended the larger caseloads as a result of hiring new judges and described them as necessary to address a backlog of more than 3 million cases this year.But immigration lawyers and rights groups argue the acceleration creates a fundamentally unfair process. "Everything related to these large dockets or mass dockets is shrouded in such a strange secrecy," Gracie Willis, an attorney with the National Immigration Project, told the Times. "Our confirmation that they were even happening really came from going to the court on Monday and seeing the large lines of people standing outside," she claimed, referring to proceedings she observed in New Orleans.Lawyers reported witnessing judges processing groups of people simultaneously despite their different cases and legal claims. In one instance, a judge heard 15 people at once, cycling through Arabic, Spanish, and Creole interpretations.On a single Monday and Tuesday, the Times is reporting, 89 people in one court were declared absent and therefore deportable. "And that is not because they were 'the worst of the worst.' It is because they had a hearing scheduled that they were not able to attend for a variety of reasons," Willis stated.The administration's push comes amid broader upheaval in Trump's immigration strategy. The report notes that on Friday, a federal judge rejected the government's indefinite hold on asylum applications filed with U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services and on immigration applications from 39 countries where people had been unable to obtain green cards and citizenship. That ruling is not expected to significantly impact immigration court proceedings.
The choice of US Attorney General is the most consequential personnel decision President Trump can make right now.

Democratic political consultant James Carville wants Maine voters to back Graham Platner despite the candidate’s flaws — and partly because of some of them. Platner is currently the likely Democratic nominee in Maine’s U.S. Senate race. If Platner wins the primary, he will face Republican Senator Susan Collins, who was first elected in 1996.“I understand he’s f—— up,” said Carville on his Politicon podcast. “Yeah, maybe we need a combat veteran right on that Senate floor, who is f—— up.”Carville berated Senator Collins by calling her “the most pliable member in the history of the United States Senate.” He warned that he believes the country is “in imminent peril — I mean, imminent peril,” and asked: “Who is most likely to slow this criminal in charge?”“I think it’s Graham Platner.”“I ask all of you to understand his flaws, and understand the peril that this nation is in, and maybe he might be the right guy at the right time,” said Carville.“Graham Platner grew up, I think, pretty privileged,” Carville said, sharing some of the likely Democratic nominee’s backstory. “He went to some kind of fancy fancy boarding school. He graduated, he joined the United States Marine Corps. He was in for eight years. He had three combat deployments. He gets out of the Marine Corps, and he goes to GW.”Then Platner “joined the Maryland National Guard. Oh, you know what happened? He gets deployed a fourth time.”“He’s f—— up,” said Carville. “He’s been shot at. He’s a veteran. All right? He’s got a little bit weird. He’s an oysterman. I know what oystermen do. I live in Louisiana. I think that oyster harvesting is the same the world over, it’s hard a—— work.”Carville acknowledged that he has concerns, but said that maybe senators “need to look at this guy before they start sending young people off to fight wars, and see what the consequence of it is. Maybe he ought to run and say, ‘You don’t know, I’m gonna be on a veterans affairs committee, and I wanna be on a mental health subcommittee, ’cause I know something about… Yeah, I might be five degrees off dead center. So f—— what?’ They need that.”He said he doesn’t agree with Platner’s economic stances, that they are “to the left of anything I’d say I’m for.”“But you know what? He recognizes this horrific inequality in this country. And it actually would do some good to have somebody in there.”Carville called Platner’s tattoo “very troubling.”He said, “what I have to consider first, is this country is about to lose it. The whole goddamn thing.”“Okay, we gotta win this,” Carville concluded. “And if we got a person who’s understandably got issues, yeah, good. And maybe people ought to see it, and maybe we ought to just be reminded of what these stupid wars have brought about in the consequence of said stupid wars. It’s [what] stupid Susan Collin's been for all her political life.” - YouTube www.youtube.com
