Latino USA host Maria Hinojosa shares the story of Estrella Diamantina González, an undocumented transgender woman and trafficking survivor from Mexico caught up in the United States’ criminal and immigration systems.
This past summer, after serving a nine-year sentence in a Texas men’s prison, Diamantina González was released, but she wasn’t free. She was immediately transferred to an immigration detention facility and then deported.
Hinojosa, who has been reporting on Diamantina González’s ordeal for the last decade, followed her to Mexico in the new audio documentary “Estrella: Bittersweet Freedom for a 'Bad Mexican.'”

New York City is moving forward with nearly $8.9 million in proposed contracts to support healthcare organizations providing gender-affirming care to transgender youth under 18. The funding is part of Mayor Zohran Mamdani’s broader $15 million initiative to expand access to these services. The contracts remain in the procurement process and have not been finalized #NOH8

Air Force Maj. Jason Watson has been in solitary confinement for nearly two months after he was detained for calling for Trump's impeachment. One military law professor told Common Dreams it was a "blatant case of illegal pretrial punishment." commondreams.org/news/jason-…

Our foreparents fought too hard to open the doors of democracy for us to give up the vote now. As access to voting faces new challenges, we must meet this moment with conspicuous courage and collective action.

🚨 ICE has investigated hundreds of U.S. nonprofits that help people register to vote — and even considered using undercover agents to do so.
It’s part of the Trump administration’s resource-intensive search for an exceptionally rare issue: illegal voting by noncitizens ➡️ demdock.com/4ibEJRh

ICE has been showing up at and near polling places, and voting rights groups say it’s scaring naturalized citizens and immigrant families away from the polls. In one case, voters had to walk through a parking lot where ICE agents had arrested someone to reach the ballot box.
Now voting rights groups are expanding their lawsuit to keep armed federal agents away from the polls.

48 MILLION voting records were obtained by ICE through an election denier. The agency's investigative arm, Homeland Security Investigations, also debated sending undercover agents into voter registration organizations.
These shocking documents were obtained through a FOIA lawsuit against the Department of Homeland Security. If you want to support our work exposing the truth, subscribe to our free newsletter here: demdock.com/4rPzD1e
