Home Depots become prime locations for immigration enforcement
2025-08-23

Home Depots become prime locations for immigration enforcement

The sight of masked federal agents in tactical gear descending on Home Depots across Southern California is forcing undocumented day laborers to weigh earning badly needed income against the risk of being arrested or deported.At least two Home Depot parking lots in the Los Angeles area were targeted Friday amid the Trump administration’s immigration crackdown. Day laborers were detained in North Hollywood and Alhambra as organizers shouted demanding to see warrants and attempted to obtain as much information as possible from handcuffed workers.The scene has become familiar this summer to day laborers, who are desperate to maintain a steady income in a local economy still recovering from January’s wildfires and the rising cost of building materials caused by tariffs.They wait in parking lots each morning, hoping to earn a day’s wage or, if they’re lucky, get hired for a long-term project that could mean weeks or months of steady pay. But the constant threat of arrest is taking a toll on many workers, who say they are traumatized and can’t sleep after watching friends and family members being arrested and taken to jail. “What can you do? In this country you can’t stay home. You need money for kids, bills, rent, food,” said Arturo, a day laborer who lives in Los Angeles and spoke in Spanish. Arturo and other laborers interviewed by NBC News spoke on the condition of anonymity because they feared being targeted by Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents or other federal officers. Immigration4 hours agoKilmar Abrego Garcia notified by ICE that he may be deported to UgandaImmigration21 hours agoICE director says agents won't be at D.C. schools on the first day — but may be going forwardNational MallAug 20Officers detain man in ICE enforcement on National Mall as he screams for helpFriday’s Home Depot operations took place about a week after Roberto Carlos Montoya Valdez, a day laborer from Guatemala, died after fleeing from agents at a Home Depot parking lot in Monrovia. He ran onto a nearby freeway and was hit by a car. Immigration advocates and community members said Montoya, who was in the U.S. without legal authorization, was not a criminal but a hardworking father.“He came here to work hard. My uncle was not a criminal,” his niece, Mariela Mendez, told mourners during a vigil last week for Montoya. “He wanted what a lot of us want: a better life.”The Department of Homeland Security said Montoya was not being pursued by federal agents when he died.Home Depot declined to comment on his death or say how many arrests have occurred on its properties. “We aren’t notified that ICE activities are going to happen, and in many cases, we don’t know that arrests have taken place until after they’re over,” the Atlanta-based company said in an emailed statement. “We’re required to follow all federal and local rules and regulations in every market where we operate.”Sitting in his truck parked close to where Montoya started running, Jose quietly sobbed as he looked at the small tree where his friend used to lock up his bike every morning. Jose said he had known Montoya for about five years and described him as friendly and chatty with the other workers who assembled every morning in the parking lot.On the day Montoya died, Jose said he arrived a few hours later than usual and was confused by all the commotion. Helicopters roared overhead and traffic came to a standstill.“It’s like it happened to all of us,” he said in Spanish through tears. “We all know each other. We’re all the same.”Jose said that returning to the scene of Montoya’s death was heartbreaking, but his choices were limited. He needs to work, and the idea of not earning money every day keeps him up at night. “He wasn’t a criminal. He wasn’t a bad guy,” Jose said, adding that he doesn’t understand why Montoya ran onto the freeway. “I wish he had taken his chances with an immigration judge.” A few paces away, Felipe stood in the shade of a tree, waiting for someone to hire him. He has lived in the U.S. since 2015 andworked in restaurants until the Covid pandemic crippled the industry, he said. He has returned to this Home Depot most days for five years, but the opportunities have dried up, he said. First it was the wildfires, then it was the tariffs and now it’s the fear of immigration enforcement. Felipe remembers a time when he could pick and choose which jobs to do on which days. Now, he’s lucky to be hired even for a few hours. “Thank God I wasn’t here when they got Carlos,” he said. “I’d be in Mexico without clothes.” When asked about the last time he saw Montoya, Felipe pointed to the little tree nearby. “He was sitting there talking with somebody,” Felipe said. “He seemed happy.”Nancy Meza, an organizer with the National Day Laborers Organizing Network, works with dozens of volunteers stationed at Home Depots across Southern California. They patrol parking lots and street corners, watching for incoming signs of immigration enforcement activity. When spotted, volunteers signal each other in a group chat and shout warnings to nearby workers.Meza said she hears a mix of stress and determination from day laborers. Many vow to continue working for a sense of normalcy and to maintain a steady income, despite the personal cost.“There’s a feeling of, ‘If we stay home and just sit back in fear, it makes things worse, we feel really anxious, powerless,’” she said. “They would rather take their chances.”Anti-ICE activists march through the Home Depot in Pasadena on August 6, 2025. Sharon Nicholls, who leads the Anti-ICE activists, later read a letter to the store manager requesting that Home Depot protect day laborers at their facility.Standing outside a different Home Depot on a blistering hot day, Arturo said he has lived in the United States for 25 years and regrets not learning English or trying to become a citizen. When he first arrived, he said, he was too embarrassed to attend night classes covered in sweat and paint after a day’s work. The citizenship process also is costly and time-prohibitive, he said, noting that many of his friends who managed to obtain lawyers and go through the process said it cost them some $15,000 and nearly a decade of waiting. Arturo thought his time would be better spent earning money so he could leave sooner. Like many undocumented people, Arturo intended to return home to Mexico within a few years of arriving. But he fell in love and had two children. They are now teenagers and he can’t leave them behind, he said. If he took them to Mexico, he worries they would feel too out of place in a country they have never visited. Instead, he encourages them to study hard and attend college. To help make that happen, he works six days a week, leaving Sundays open to spend with his children and attend church.He said the benefit of what he is doing outweighs the risk.“All you can do is work to survive,” he said. “Immigration or no, people come out because they have to eat.”

Bolivia's Supreme Court issues order that could see detained right-wing politicians freed

Bolivia’s Supreme Court has ordered a review of the detention of three right-wing leaders held without trial. This move comes days after a presidential election ended the leftist party's two-decade dominance. The court's decision could lead to the release of Jeanine Añez, Luis Fernando Camacho, and Marco Antonio Pumari. They have been detained over their roles in the 2019 crisis that led to former President Evo Morales' ouster. Critics claim the judiciary is politically influenced. The order follows a shift to the right in recent elections, with a runoff scheduled for October 19.

Maryland Gov. Wes Moore dodges nonprofit questions ahead of staff departures

COLUMBIA, Md. (WBFF) — After his team said he had to leave an event immediately, Maryland Gov. Wes Moore slipped out through an emergency exit nearly half an hour later, avoiding unanswered questions about the state’s nonprofit spending, as his top aide is set to lead a prominent Baltimore foundation next year. Outside the elevators of IronCircle, a cybersecurity company where Moore participated in a fireside chat and a ribbon-cutting at its new headquarters in Columbia, Md., on Tuesday, one of the governor’s assistants gathered the attending members of the news media for the governor to take a few questions.

Juno Detects Unusual Plasma Waves in Jupiter’s Aurora

Using data from NASA’s Juno spacecraft, planetary researchers have detected a new type of plasma wave in the auroral zones above Jupiter’s north pole. “The NASA/ESA/CSA James Webb Space Telescope has given us some infrared images of the aurora, but Juno is the first spacecraft in a polar orbit around Jupiter,” said Dr. Ali Sulaiman, a researcher at the University of Minnesota. “The space around magnetized planets like Jupiter is filled with plasma, a superheated state of matter where atoms break into electrons and ions.” “These particles are accelerated toward the planet’s atmosphere, causing the gases to light up as an aurora.” “On Earth, this is visible as familiar green and blue lights.” “However, Jupiter’s aurora is typically invisible to the naked eye and can only be observed using UV and infrared instruments.” https://www.sci.news/space/juno-unusual-plasma-waves-jupiters-aurora-14150.html
