We see a lot of discussion of 'illegal migration' that either treats the migrants merely as objects of opinion, or sometimes ventroilquises their lives/views.

So rather than do that, here's a real migrant's story - of migration, (as it turned out) false imprisonment for being a 'smuggler' & the frustrations of having skills that are in need (here kitchen fitting), but being advised to take cleaning jobs.

Its a heartbreaking story & unlikely to be uncommon!

Donald Trump’s allies and some in the private sector have been quietly preparing to detain and deport residing in the United States on a large scale, according to four sources familiar with the discussions.

And with the former president becoming the president-elect, those preparations are now expected to ramp up.

Texas hospitals must now ask patients whether they’re in the U.S. legally. Here’s how it works.

@AssociatedPress reports: "Critics fear the change could scare people away from hospitals in Texas, even though patients are not required to answer the questions to receive medical care. The mandate is similar to a policy that debuted last year in Florida."

La répression contre les migrants s'aggrave avec le gouvernement Barnier et Retailleau: "Faire preuve d’humanité devrait transcender les partis politiques", réaffirme Cedric Herrou dans mon dernier article pour Politis. "Bruno Retailleau prétend qu’il est pragmatique, c’est faux, c’est un dogmatique", cingle François Héran.
