Breaking: We're suing the Trump administration for illegal, lethal boat strikes

Image
  This week, the ACLU and our partners filed a lawsuit on behalf of the family members of Chad Joseph and Rishi Samaroo, two Trinidadian men killed by the Trump administration in an illegal boat strike back in October. At least 125 people have been killed in these strikes since September 2025. Chad and Rishi are both from Trinidad and Tobago but met while they were working in Venezuela as farmhands and fishermen to support their families back home. Both were extremely close to their families, calling them every day. On October 12, they told their loved ones they would be home in just a couple of days and would see them soon. Just two days later, a U.S. missile struck their boat, killing both Mr. Joseph and Mr. Samaroo, as well as four other people. This is murder, plain, and simple.  And yet, President Trump and Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth have publicly boasted about and published videos of the strikes – including the strike that killed Mr. Joseph and Mr. Samaroo.

  MeidasTouch 5.76M subscribers Jan 1, 2026 Legal AF Podcast In a new federal appellate court filing, the Trump Administration and DOJ is being accused of possibly committing crimes or fraud on the court to strip it of any attorney-client privilege and avoid judge sanctions up to criminal contempt from being imposed on them. Michael Popok reports on the ACLU’s new brief to the DC federal appellate court to support Chief Judge Boesberg and get him back on track on determining if Kristie Noem and or Emil Bove (now a federal judge) among others, committed criminal contempt, and if DOJ lawyers should be referred to to the Bar for sanctions against their law licenses.

Are we going to be a country that fights for its values? Are we going to stick up for ourselves, our neighbors, and our communities?

An immigrant detained at Fort Bliss just died. Take action to shut it down.

Image
  Last week, a 48-year-old man detained at Fort Bliss died in ICE custody after failing to receive appropriate medical care. This should never have happened. The accounts coming from ICE's largest detention center get more horrifying by the day. We continue hearing reports of food shortages, beatings, tents filled with sewage, and medical neglect. Those detained are suffering conditions that no human being should be put through – especially while held by the United States government. The abuses we're seeing at Ft. Bliss are emblematic of the inhumane conditions that have become a hallmark of the ICE detention system as a whole. Tell your members of Congress to intervene now by exercising their oversight responsibilities and shutting down the ICE detention machine once and for all. Act Now We can't wait while ICE subjects more people to extreme abuse and neglect. Thank you for your action today. – The ACLU Team This just in from our lawyers: We sent a letter today demanding ...
