The agency is also snatching up court attendees who have clearly been in the US for longer than two years – the maximum timeframe that according to <a href="https://expressional.social/tags/US" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>US</span></a> law determines whether someone can be placed in expedited removal – as well as those who have a pathway to remain in the country legally. </p></blockquote></blockquote><p><a href="https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025/jul/26/cuba-asylum-seeker-ice-courtroom?CMP=share_btn_url" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://www.</span><span class="ellipsis">theguardian.com/us-news/2025/j</span><span class="invisible">ul/26/cuba-asylum-seeker-ice-courtroom?CMP=share_btn_url</span></a></p><p><a href="https://expressional.social/tags/DefendRuleOfLaw" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>DefendRuleOfLaw</span></a><br><a href="https://expressional.social/tags/DueProcessForAll" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>DueProcessForAll</span></a><br><a href="https://expressional.social/tags/StopTheDeportations" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>StopTheDeportations</span></a><br><a href="https://expressional.social/tags/immigrants" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>immigrants</span></a> <a href="https://expressional.social/tags/deportations" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>deportations</span></a><br><a href="https://expressional.social/tags/USA" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>USA</span></a> <a href="https://expressional.social/tags/US" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>US</span></a> <a href="https://expressional.social/tags/USPolitics" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>USPolitics</span></a> <a href="https://expressional.social/tags/politics" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>politics</span></a> <a href="https://expressional.social/tags/Trump" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Trump</span></a><br><a href="https://expressional.social/tags/news" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>news</span></a> <a href="https://expressional.social/tags/press" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>press</span></a></p>
