US EditionDHS Used Anonymous Pro-Israel Site to Target Activists for Deportation, Agency Says in Court
SUFFOLK COUNTY, MASSACHUSETTS, JUL 10 – ICE analysts reviewed over 5,000 names from Canary Mission to investigate pro-Palestinian student protesters, producing around 200 reports for potential legal action, officials testified in court.
- A senior ICE official testified in Boston court that the agency used names from Canary Mission to investigate student protesters, marking its first open court admission this year.
- In early 2025, the Department of Homeland Security formed a 'Tiger Team' in March to compile dossiers on around 100 foreign students, mainly using names from Canary Mission, supporting Trump's deportation efforts.
- Analysis reveals that the DHS Tiger Team reviewed over 5,000 names, producing more than 100 reports, with over 75% originating from Canary Mission, according to official testimony.
- The plaintiffs argue the policy infringes free speech, with faculty testifying students withheld protests out of fear of deportation.
- The Boston trial serves as a crucial test of whether the Trump-era ideological deportation policy, relying on sources like Canary Mission, is lawful and silences protected speech, potentially shaping future immigration law use.
