"Criminal Justice Is Criminal": New Film Is "Musical Indictment" of Cash Bail & Deadly Houston Jail
The new short film Criminal highlights the injustices of the criminal legal system with a look at how for-profit bail preys on the poor and mentally ill. We're joined by three contributors to the film, musician Stew Stewart and bail reform advocates Krish Gundu and Alec Karakatsanis, to discuss how what Karakatsanis calls the "unconstitutional" system of cash bail leads to "millions of coerced guilty pleas every single year all across the country, just because people are so desperate to get out." Criminal focuses on Texas's notorious Harris County Jail, where at least 15 people have died in pretrial detention just this year. Gundu explains, "We have criminalized mental illness. We've criminalized homelessness. We've criminalized reproductive rights. And so, the jail has become the emergency room of our community."

"Israeli Sadism in a Nutshell": Amira Hass on Israeli Prisons, Settler Violence & Gaza Ceasefire
Just days after the U.S.-backed ceasefire deal between Israel and Hamas went into effect, President Trump has issued new threats against Hamas, saying Thursday the United States would back a military intervention against the group if it fails to uphold the ceasefire agreement.

"There is the fear all the time that the war will be renewed," says Amira Hass, Haaretz correspondent for the Occupied Palestinian Territories, who joins us from Ramallah. Hass is the daughter of Holocaust survivors and is the only Israeli Jewish journalist to have spent 30 years living in and reporting from Gaza and the West Bank.

DHS, Justice, and State Prepare for Court-Ordered Reimplementation of MPP
WASHINGTON - As required by a federal court order, the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) has been working in good faith to re-implement the Migrant Protection Protocols (MPP) program.  Today, in coordination with the Departments of State and Justice, DHS announced key changes to MPP to address humanitarian concerns raised by the Government of Mexico and shared by the U.S. Government.  Secretary of Homeland Security Alejandro N. Mayorkas has repeatedly stated that MPP has endemic flaws, imposed unjustifiable human costs, pulled resources and personnel away from other priority efforts, and failed to address the root causes of irregular migration. 

To comply with the court order, however, DHS will be ready to reimplement MPP once the Government of Mexico makes a final and independent decision to accept the return of individuals enrolled in the program, subject to certain humanitarian improvements.  These key changes include a commitment that proceedings will generally be concluded within six months of an individual's initial return to Mexico; opportunities for enrollees to secure access to, and communicate with, counsel before and during non-refoulement interviews and immigration court hearings; improved non-refoulement procedures; and an increase in the amount and quality of information enrolled individuals receive about MPP.  DHS will exclude particularly vulnerable individuals from being enrolled in MPP.  In addition, DHS will provide COVID-19 vaccinations for all persons enrolled in MPP.

The U.S. Government will work closely with the Government of Mexico to ensure that there are safe and secure shelters available for those enrolled in MPP; that individuals returned under MPP have secure transportation to and from U.S. ports of entry; and that MPP enrollees are able to seek work permits, healthcare, and other services in Mexico. 

On October 29, 2021, Secretary Mayorkas
