Four NYPD officers converged on one woman on a bike because she smiled at them, then detained her because she wasn't carrying ID. (www.threads.com)

What's really shocking is that a woman detained in the US for not having ID wasn't delivered to ICE immediatelly and deported to El Salvador without due process.

I mean, the whole point of not having due process is that if a person can't right then and there prove they're not an illegal immigrant they can just treat that person as an illegal immigrant and "dissapear" that person for it with no recourse.

It doesn't matter if they can prove it or not. ID, documents, birth certificate, none of it matters without due process.

Kilmar Abrego Garcia was specifically prohibited from being deported to El Salvador. He literally had an order from a US immigration judge that said he cannot be legally sent there in particular, because of the risk to his life.
