At the request of the U.S. Department of Justice, a Facebook group used by nearly 80,000 people to report sightings of federal immigration agents in the Chicago area has been taken down by the social media giant Meta, Facebook’s parent company. The group, called ICE Sighting-Chicagoland, has been increasingly used over the last five weeks of “Operation Midway Blitz,” President Donald Trump’s intense deportation campaign, to warn neighbors that federal agents are near schools, grocery stores and other community locations so they can take steps to protect themselves. But the Trump administration has claimed that its agents — nearly all of whom wear face coverings, don’t wear badges and at times drive vehicles without license plates — are “under attack.” “Today, following outreach from the DOJ, Facebook removed a large group page that was being used to dox and target ICE agents in Chicago,” U.S. Attorney General Pam Bondi said in a statement Tuesday. “The wave of violence against ICE has been driven by online apps and social media campaigns designed to put ICE officers at risk just for doing their jobs,” Bondi said.  » Read More

Meta has removed a Facebook page used to track the presence of immigration agents at the request of the Department of Justice, the company confirmed on Tuesday. Meta has removed a Facebook page used to track the presence of immigration agents at the request of the Department of Justice, the company confirmed on Tuesday. Attorney General Pam Bondi said in a post on X that “following outreach” from the DOJ, Facebook removed a “large group page” that was being used to target ICE officials. Meta said in a statement that the group "was removed for violating our policies against coordinated harm.” Meta is the latest tech company to restrict tools used to track ICE agents on its platform. Earlier this month, Apple and Google blocked downloads of phone apps that flag sightings of U.S. immigration agents, just hours after the Trump administration demanded that one particularly popular iPhone app be taken down. Bondi has said that such tracking puts Immigration and Customs Enforcement officers at risk.  » Read More

The Manor, previously managed by CJHDevCo before the BCDA's takeover, remains a key revenue-generating landmark within Camp John Hay. Mia Magdalena Fokno/Rappler Presiding Judge Jeanylene Isip-Fukai says businessman Robert Sobrepeña's CJHDevCo and Balitang Northern Luzon falsely attributed the dismissal of a criminal case to a prosecutorial failure even though no trial took place BAGUIO CITY, Philippines – The Municipal Trial Court in Cities (MTCC) Branch 5 in Baguio has ordered Camp John Hay Development Corporation (CJHDevCo) and news outlet Balitang Northern Luzon to correct a September 11 Facebook post which it ruled was misleading and “a willful disregard of truth,” regarding the dismissal of a criminal case against CJHDevCo chairman Robert Sobrepeña and Fil-Estate Management executive Ramon Jimenez. The order, issued by Presiding Judge Jeanylene Isip-Fukai on September 25, stressed that the court dismissed the case not because the prosecution failed to prove guilt beyond reasonable doubt — as CJHDevCo publicly claimed — but because the complainants filed an affidavit of desistance and formally withdrew their complaint.  » Read More
