- For @nysfocus.bsky.social : immigrants are sorting through a flood of misinformation about a $100 fee for new and pending asylum applications. Many lawyers aren't even sure what to advise.
- NEW: The Trump administration’s lack of clarity about when and how to pay new fees sparked chaos and misinformation among immigrants with pending asylum applications. nysfocus.com/2025/09/29/a...
- Filled me with joy to write this piece for Hell Gate. Please read!

- ICE agents “displayed an exceeding level of stillness and homogeneity in a room with a flow of people from all over the world, who are always in motion, and who mostly looked different from one another.” New: @liv-veazey.bsky.social writes from immigration court. www.nplusonemag.com/online-only/...
- @maxrn.bsky.social and I wrote about federal agents masking in immigration courts.
- NEW: Hell Gate spent the past few weeks in federal buildings in Lower Manhattan as masked men have abducted New Yorkers. Who are they? Can they legally do this? Our look at how immigration court became a hunting ground for men in Marvel t-shirts and neck gaiters. hellgatenyc.com/ice-gone-rog...
