    “After the January sweep, the man who led it, Chief Patrol Agent Gregory Bovino, said his agents specifically targeted people with criminal and immigration histories. However, a CalMatters investigation revealed that the Border Patrol had no criminal or immigration history on 77 of the 78 people it arrested.”

    so just being an immigrant?

    Racially-profiled stop and frisk arrests are official policy in multiple US states, and have even stood up to court challenges. Stooge judges have been around even long before Trump. Maybe the judge forgot he lives in America.
