Trump wants 20,000 troops to hunt, transport immigrants. Cost estimate: $3.6 billion

Trump want 20,000 troopsThe Pentagon is reviewing a Department of Homeland Security request to deploy more than 20,000 additional National Guard troops to aid the Trump administration's widening crackdown on illegal immigration around the United States, according to officials and documents.

Homeland Security officials want the troops to help track fugitives, quell riots at detention centers and search for unaccompanied children in remote or hostile terrain.

Meanwhile, Pentagon and Customs and Border Patrol officials have inspected military bases in recent months from New Jersey to California as potential sites to detain an expected influx of migrants.

Keeping 20,000 National Guardsmen on duty for one year would cost $3.6 billion, according to a U.S. official briefed on the potential deployment. However, it's unclear how many Guardsmen are available to fill the request, according to a Defense official.

Israel kills 60 in Gaza; Greta Thunberg, Madleen crew to be deported

Madleen capturedIsraeli forces have killed at least 60 Palestinians in Gaza on Monday, including at least 14 people near the US-backed Gaza Humanitarian Foundation’s (GHF) aid centre in southern Rafah.
Israel has detained the Madleen’s 12 crew members, including Swedish activist Greta Thunberg and Al Jazeera journalist Omar Fayyad, after towing the aid ship to Israel’s Ashdod Port, their lawyer told Al Jazeera.
  • The flotilla was aiming to break Israel’s illegal blockade on Gaza and was seized by Israeli commandos in international waters about 100 nautical miles (185km) from Gaza’s shores.
  • Israel’s war on Gaza has killed at least 54,927 Palestinians and wounded 126,615, according to Gaza’s Health Ministry.
  • As we’ve been reporting, hundreds of Tunisian and Algerian activists have launched a convoy from Tunis to reach Gaza via Egypt’s Rafah crossing.
  • The effort aims to deliver aid and break Israel’s blockade, as tonnes of humanitarian supplies pile up at the border crossing in Arish.

    Palestinians say at least five people killed by Israeli gunfire near Gaza aid centers

    5 killed at aid centerPalestinian health officials and witnesses say at least five people were killed and others were wounded by Israeli fire as they headed toward two aid distribution points in the Gaza Strip run by an Israeli and U.S.-backed group. Israel's military said it fired warning shots at people who approached its forces.

    Four bodies were brought to Nasser Hospital in Gaza's southern city of Khan Younis. Palestinian witnesses there said Israeli forces had fired on them at a roundabout that is around a kilometer (half-mile) from a site run by the Gaza Humanitarian Foundation in the nearby city of Rafah.

    The Israeli military said it fired warning shots at people it said were suspects who had advanced toward its forces and ignored warnings to turn away. It said the shooting occurred in an area in southern Gaza that is considered an active combat zone at night.

    Israel Vows To Prevent An Aid Boat Carrying Greta Thunberg And Other Activists From Reaching Gaza

    Aid flotilla warned

    Israel’s government on Sunday vowed to prevent an aid boat carrying Greta Thunberg and other activists from reaching the Gaza Strip.

    Defense Minister Israel Katz said that Israel wouldn’t allow anyone to break its naval blockade of the Palestinian territory, which he said was aimed at preventing Hamas from importing arms.

    “To the antisemitic Greta and her fellow Hamas propagandists — I will say this clearly: You should turn back, because you will not make it to Gaza,” he said in a statement.

    Thunberg, a climate campaigner, is among 12 activists aboard the Madleen, which is operated by the Freedom Flotilla Coalition. The vessel departed Sicily last Sunday on a mission that aims to break the sea blockade of Gaza and deliver humanitarian aid, while raising awareness over the growing humanitarian crisis 20 months into the Israel-Hamas war.

    California leaders condemn Ice raids in LA: ‘We will not stand for this’

    LA will not stand for this

    The Department of Homeland Security conducted raids on multiple locations across Los Angeles on Friday, clashing with the crowds of people who gathered to protest and prompting widespread criticism from California leaders.

    Masked agents were recorded pulling several people out of two LA-area Home Depot stores and the clothing manufacturer Ambient Apparel’s headquarters in LA’s Fashion District. Immigration advocates said the raids also included four other locations, including a doughnut shop.

    There has not yet been confirmation of how many people were taken into custody during the coordinated sweeps.

    Recap: Kilmar Abrego Garcia charged with human smuggling after return from El Salvador

    Garcia home

    Kilmar Abrego Garcia, the Maryland man whose deportation to El Salvador made him a flashpoint in the debate over President Donald Trump's immigration policy, faces human trafficking charges after he was returned to the United States, Attorney General Pam Bondi said.

    Abrego Garcia made more than 100 trips to move illegal immigrants across the United States, Bondi said at a June 6 press conference, alleging he was a member of the MS-13 street gang. "Thousands of illegal aliens were smuggled," she said.

    The indictment was a dramatic turnabout for Abrego Garcia's supporters, who have portrayed him as an innocent man turned political pawn amid Trump's mass deportation program.

    To the contrary, Bondi said, Abrego Garcia "traded the innocence of minor children for profit."

    President Donald Trump refused to comment to reporters traveling with him June 6 about whether he pressed Salvador’s President Nayib Bukele to return Abrego Garcia. But Trump continued to argue he shouldn’t have been returned.

    Mahmoud Khalil describes pain of missing son’s birth in latest court filing

    Mohamoud Khalil

    Mahmoud Khalil, the detained Columbia University graduate and Palestinian activist, has said in a new court filing that the “most immediate and visceral harms” he has experienced during his nearly three-month detention have been missing the birth of his son and being separated from his wife.

    “Instead of holding my wife’s hand in the delivery room, I was crouched on a detention center floor, whispering through a crackling phone line as she labored alone,” Khalil said. “I listened to her pain, trying to comfort her while 70 other men slept around me. When I heard my son’s first cries, I buried my face in my arms so no one would see me weep.

    “To not be able to see them, hold them, speak with them freely, enjoy everything I imagined our first days as a family would be like, is devastating,” he wrote about the birth in late April.
