A 22-year-old stateless Palestinian woman, has been released from a Texas ICE jail after five months in custody. On Tuesday, Ward Sakeik reunited with her husband, who’d been fighting for her freedom.
The Trump administration repeatedly attempted to deport her despite a judge’s order barring her removal from the U.S. Sakeik’s family is from Gaza, and she was born in Saudi Arabia, which does not grant birthright citizenship to the children of immigrants.
Sakeik was taken by federal agents in February upon returning from her honeymoon in the U.S. Virgin Islands.

A new gadget for the US immigration control agency. Agents are equipped with a facial recognition application that will enable them to carry out identity checks in real time, revealed the 404 Media website on June 26. Mobile Fortify promises to turn ICE agents’ smartphones into weapons of mass identification. No more taking fingerprints and then comparing them with files, a photo taken with the phone should suffice, according to ICE’s description of the system, which we don’t know if it’s already deployed or still in the testing phase.
Mobile Fortify will be directly linked to various biometric databases set up by the Department of Homeland Security (DHS). It will compare photos taken by agents with the DHS Automated Biometric Identification System (IDENT) file, which contains information on 270 million people in the USA. This facial recognition application will also send the images to the Customs database, which takes photos of everyone entering and leaving the United States. The aim: to identify people residing legally or illegally in the United States, and to be able to carry out raids to arrest as many illegal immigrants as possible.
By September, the agency should be able to rely on a brand new data processing system called ImmigrationOS. This software offers a wide range of tools for: checking in “real time” which people decide of their own accord to leave US territory; managing the flow of arrests and deportations; and, last but not least, identifying priority targets for ICE agents more quickly.
Palantir, the ubiquitous data processing giant, has secured $30 million from the immigration authorities to implement this software. Palantir has been working with the agency since 2011. The collaboration of tech companies is essential for an agency like ICE, which needs these companies’ technology not only for facial recognition or data processing, but also for geolocation or vehicle identification.

Hridindu Roychowdhury is an anarchist who was sentenced in 2022 to 7.5 years for vandalizing and burning down a far-right Christian nationalist abortion office as part of the Jane’s Revenge movement, which claims several direct actions against anti-abortion institutions in the USA.
In May 2025, he was transferred to appear before a grand jury. He refused to cooperate during a hearing. Following this, the judge found him in contempt for refusing to answer the grand jury’s questions. He is incarcerated in a county jail, so his federal sentence is suspended until the contempt is served.

In August 2023, the Georgia Attorney General filed an unprecedented indictment against 61 individuals, opening the largest political RICO trial in U.S. history. A federal law in the United States, RICO (Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organizations) typically targets organizations motivated by racketeering and corruption, and provides extensive criminal penalties for offenses committed as part of the activities of a “criminal organization”. This radical measure targets activists associated with the Stop Cop City movement, which opposes a militarized police training center planned for Atlanta’s Weelaunee Forest.
Among those charged is Priscilla Grim, a cultural worker and long-time activist. Priscilla was arrested at a music festival in Weelaunee Forest in 2023 for organizing a meditation and opposing Cop City. She was jailed for over a month on terrorism charges and denied bail twice. Now, two years later, the state continues its RICO proceedings against her and dozens of others. Everyone, including Priscilla, had to return to jail for more than 24 hours in Fulton County for arraignment. By June 2025, hearings were underway and motions were being considered. The charges are serious.
