“After a traffic stop for turning right on a red light in Dalton on Monday, a 19-year-old Dalton State student is now facing possible deportation.

Friends say Ximena Arias-Cristobal, who has lived in Whitfield County since she was 4, was taken to the Stewart Detention Center wearing chains around her wrists and ankles. There, she'll wait a little over a month before she appears before a judge. That facility is near Columbus about 3 and a half hours away.

… Officers asked Arias-Cristobal for her license. A police report shows she told them she had an international driver's license, but she didn't have it with her. [the arrest report said her mother had taken the license to keep her from driving - the girl’s father was detained by ICE in a traffic stop several weeks ago] …”

This sounds like a fine young lady who has lived in the USA since she was a toddler but is nonetheless undocumented and so likely to be deported. It is a case of the Administration seeming to seek out immigrants for minor violations rather than focus on the millions of gang members, rapists and murderers Trump swears have overrun the country.

It is perplexing — I have no doubt there are plenty of genuinely dangerous folks who should be prioritized for removal, but for some reason either ICE can’t find them or regardless ICE is intentionally targeting likely immigrants for minor infractions because … they can?

I was struck by a local GOP official writing a letter of support for this particular young lady — purely politically, it just seems like ICE and Trump are intentionally undermining one of their strongest issues generally with this sort of heavy-handed behavior.

I expect MAGAts don’t give a rat’s ass about the criminal history, or lack of a criminal history, of any brown-hued deportees. Just deport them. ANY AND ALL.**** That’ll open up jobs for MAGAts and reduce taxes on MAGAts as the “illegals” quit taking jerbs and sucking on the government teat.

****Don’t deport my workers, friends, or family. Deport the rest.

The guy from Somalia almost certainly was a ringleader of sorts. We didn't want to be seen harboring war criminals. Also, it's unclear if the guy was deported. DOJ only mentioned that Powell "recommended" to Tom Ridge.

Something’s going to give in this country. All this is already happening and Trump has only been in power 100 days and some change. Can’t even imagine how much worse things are going to get.

There are going to be civil rights lawsuits filed after this. And if I were on one of those juries, there would be a massive jury award.
