"The Trump administration has provided virtually no information about immigrants newly detained at Guantánamo, including how long they will be held there, under what authority and conditions, subject to what legal processes, or whether they will have any means of communicating with their families and attorneys."
“It is appalling but not surprising that the Trump admin is exploiting and expanding the 21st century's greatest symbol of lawlessness and torture: Guantánamo," said Baher Azmy. "The Center for Constitutional Rights has been challenging incommunicado detention and torture at Guantánamo since the early 1990s, and we see Trump's actions for what they are—performative cruelty mixed with another authoritarian power grab."
