This morning in Biddeford, Maine, a 26-year-old man said goodbye to his wife and daughter and left for work. Moments later he was dead, shot in the head by ICE agents, the second man ICE has killed in six days. ICE is killing our neighbors. ICE cannot be reformed. Abolish ICE.

I feel like one thing that would help us a framework for mass coordination. An app? A phone tree? A management hierarchy? Something like a political party but focused on strategy and power and not just on elections/running for office. I have no idea what would work but seems crucial.

I don't know how we're going to be able to share a country with the people who shackle Christian refugees in front of their children and send them to camps in a foreign jungle.

It was Ms. Ghasemzadeh who sent a reporter the text saying “only a miracle can save us.”

She said she was an English teacher who, in Iran, had converted to Christianity in an underground church. According to Iran’s Islamic Shariah law, converting from Islam is considered apostasy and is a crime punishable by death.

She left Iran in December, she said, hoping to build a new life in the United States. She knew that Mr. Trump was deporting migrants, she added, but thought, “I’m not a criminal, I am educated, I will show them my qualifications, my conversion to Christianity papers.”

Ms. Ghasemzadeh took a series of flights to Mexico, she said, and then headed for the southern border, paying a smuggler around $3,000 to help her climb over the border wall. She was soon picked up by border officials.

After five days in federal custody, Ms. Ghasemzadeh said, all the deportees except for the children had their hands tied and their feet shackled by U.S. authorities.

Her group was placed on a gray military airplane — more than 100 people from Iran, Pakistan, Afghanistan, Uzbekistan, China and other nations, according to the Panamanian government.

Once on board, an Uzbek women who was with her two young children fainted, according to Ms. Ghasemzadeh and a couple who were sitting next to them. The children were crying.

A member of the U.S. military who was on board came to Ms. Ghasemzadeh and asked for her help in translating, because she was asking questions in English. He asked why the Uzbek woman was so scared.

“I said it was because we had no idea where we were being taken — can you please tell us?” Ms. Ghasemzadeh said.

“He hugged me gently,” she continued, “whispered into my ear that we were going to Panama, and asked me not to tell anyone about it.”

On Sunday morning, after another deportee attempted suicide at the hotel in Panama, Ms. Ghasemzadeh said, all glass and sharp objects were confiscated from the rooms.

A spokesman for the International Organization for Migration said the group was “facilitating returns where safe to do so” and was not involved “in the detention or restriction of movement of individuals.”

According to a senior U.N. official who requested anonymity to discuss a sensitive matter, the U.N. was providing Panama with humanitarian and technical support, but the Panamanians were tightly managing the deportees and the process they were following was not entirely clear.

The deportees at the hotel will soon be sent to a camp at the edge of a jungle called the Darién Gap, according to Panama’s president, José Raúl Mulino. Built just a few years ago to house migrants headed north to the United States, the camp will now handle a reverse migration wave.

It is unclear how long the migrants will be held there.

In the past, the camp, called San Vicente, consisted of just a few shacks in a muddy expanse, and officials often kept migrants penned inside. Dengue fever is a common danger in the region.

At the Decapolis hotel, a man in his 50s with the surname Wang wrote “China” on a window. In a phone call, he said he had come to the United States alone, “for freedom.”

He’d left behind his wife and children, he said.

Just a few days before, he had crossed into the United States, where he was detained, cuffed and put on a plane to Panama.

“I thought: America is a free country with respect for human rights,” he said. “I had no idea it was like a dictatorship.”

As far as his home country went, he said, “I would rather jump off a plane than go back to China.”

On the military plane ride from California to Panama, Mona, a 32-year-old Iranian Christian convert, said her 8-year-old son cried, terrified to see his parents shackled. To calm him down, she told him that this was like overcoming the challenges in a video game, and that once the plane landed they would be free.

Her son asked if she would make his favorite Persian dish after the plane landed. Her husband, Mohammad, 33, said that throughout the flight, when his wife and son cried, he reminded them about a Christian teaching they often recited.

“Jesus has said, ‘If you don’t take your eyes off me, I won’t take mine off you.’ So I was constantly signaling that to my wife, saying, keep your eyes on him,” he said.
