NY high school grad detained by ICE released
Editor’s note: The video aired before it was announced that Yeonsoo Go would be released. NEW YORK (PIX11) — Yeonsoo Go, the Scarsdale High School honors graduate who was detained by IC…

It's great that nobody is talking about us getting Trump elected or fucking children!
-
Our largest problem is Rachel's report will never be aired on Foxnews & other right wing media. The fact that this young women was stripped of her dignity and her rights for four days illegally & it's happening how many times a day over the last seven months?

How many Scaramuccis until ICE goes Home Depot on the church?

Maybe he should pass a word to the Cardinal. He has connections in the White House.
-
We are with you🙏
-
Something is seriously wrong in our country. This is NOT NORMAL! youtu.be/MGV2cg6m37w
-
Saw your show last night. Of all the insanity with ICE going on this one shocked me to my core ... I came up off my chair and yelled, "What!"
In full view, with deliberate intention ... Trump wants to terrorize anyone who isn't white.
-
Prayers do not work If they did you know who would have been dead long ago
-
Innocent victims being detained by masked thugs, Concentration camps, called Alligator Alcatraz as if it is a joke. PROTEST every way you possibly can. Living in an Authoritarian state is only getting worse.
-
Where are the churches organizing protests to stop the dictator, the masked men, and his cult? Where are the churches and the parishioners now? Where are the churches protesting the GOP members of Congress? Where are the churches???
-
So glad to see her returned 👍🏻👍🏻😊
-
Thank you, Rachel, for saying it out loud. This is going to be an everyday occurrence for many, many more legal immigrants, and eventually native born citizens. They won't stop. We now live in an authoritarian society, and we better wake up and get ready to make sacrifices to win our democracy back.
-
It's nice to see people demonstrating & politicians doing what little they can to stave off destruction. Maybe it's time for everyone to band together for a national strike. It's very popular in Europe & allows people to take control of the situation & have more power & influence on the situation.
-
A beautiful, inspiring statement. “We are called to be sanctuary.”
-
One down. Thousands to go. You’re whacking at the symptoms, not the causes. The people who do this don’t believe in God. They believe they are God.
You’ve been very good at pulling out history. You just haven’t followed it far enough up river.

1 of 3: what about all those not your Parishioners... you know as the Jesus Bible commands: Matthew 25:36 For I was an hungred, and ye gave me meat: I was thirsty, and ye gave me drink: I was a stranger, and ye took me in: 36 Naked, and ye clothed me: I was sick, and ye visited me:

It’d be really great if you used alt text so I can read the text in your image without needing to get my reading glasses or zoom in and scroll around.
-
Given that current immigration policy was created by good Catholic boy Tom Homan, now of ICE, when he was working at Project 2025 with Opus Dei gang member Kevin Roberts, a zoom meeting with Tom, Kevin and US bishops might help US Catholics get on the same page.
-
It’s shameful the way this has left the news and there are people on American soil being tortured, in camps, right now as we speak.
Everyone’s looking towards 2026 while people being harassed, hauled off, disappeared, taken from their families, taken from this country or dying in ICE custody.
-
YES SIR
-
This is so typical of how the ICE GESTAPO is out of control and making illegal kidnappings! These people have a high profile but how many others are being seized and sent to Louisiana with no way to contact them by family and attorneys! This must stop NOW!
-
It’s about time the church stood up to this regime. It’s too damn bad they helped to usher these fascists in all because they wanted to harm gay people and control women.
-
I'm so happy to see tonight she was released.
-
Amen!
-
Who trust Lying Ass Trump and his corrupt Lying Ass Administration? These ppl are the worse.
They are the worse of the worst politicians. -
-
ICE can release any of their kidnap victims at any time.
They only do when there's public pressure.
-
I am incredibly grateful that Soo has been rightly released. I pray with you that all of those people who have been taken without cause also are let go. I pray something stops everything that is happening under this regime.
-
Excellent news.
-
Once again @maddow.msnbc.com tells it like it is! We all need to fight to save America. The time is here!
-
Instead of being grateful for her release, how about being furious that she was kidnapped in the first place?
-
Why isnt THIS yr lead story:
-
I’m not Catholic but can we get a big HEAR,HEAR for the fight? It’s what we are all going to have to do. FIGHT BACK!
-
One more home but so many to go. 🙏
-
This is such good news. I was just thinking today about prayer. It an help
-
3/ Nosferatu Goebbels in that orange jackass's ear, but I will continue to support ALL efforts to STOP this madness. Starting with TEXAS. If Abbott goes thru with this EVERY blue state should gerrymander the SHIT out of their state. Get in the mud & fight dirty. We have to at this point. 3/3

2/3 plain sight right in the good ole' US of A. I live abroad now and am watching in horror at what this abomination of an administration has done in 8 short months. I don't know where this will end, but I fear it will end badly. I vote. I don't know for how long I'll be able to from abroad with

Dear @maddow.msnbc.com @maddowblog.msnbc.com @stevebenen.com , I want to thank you for I believe was the best first 1/2 show you've ever done. I openly wept listening to you call out what we all see going on with this horrific Trump administration. It is the definition of authoritarianism in 1/
-
This is despicable! Rachel, they're turning Camp Atterbury into the new Midwest crematorium. She was an innocent student sacrificed to try and fill the mouth of Toothless Tom Homan.
Speaking of Catholics: What would Sinead O'Connor do? How do we stop America from becoming one big Magdalene Laundry?
-
Our authoritarian government is disgusting!😡👿
-
the fact that Ice Agents r now breaking car windows means they truly r becoming Trump's secret police force.
-
Maybe if they prayed harder, they could have prayed both of them out. If they really put their minds together, they should ask God why he allowed them to be detained in the first place>
-
Wow 🤯 good news ✅👍🏼💙
-
This poor young girl and her mother. Why? What are her crimes? Nothing. Just another innocent person swept up by the Gestapo. This is tyranny.

Fortunately, Catholic bishops are being led by a brave pope.
Priests used anti-abortion homilies in support of trump as he broke 9 commandments on a daily basis.
Priests need to remember Fred Trump’s kk_ had Catholics just under African Americans, Jews, and immigrants on their hate list.
-
This is great but should not remove the focus on why she was arrested in the first place.
-
But why should it stop at their own parishioners, what of all the other innocent victims of a lunatic, racist president and his secret police. Fight, fight, fight or you have achieved nothing. The world is watching.
-
At this point, what do we do with this Whistleblower testimony! youtube.com/shorts/h7bAy...
Why is this not in the media?

-
Thank goodness! This poor young woman, what a terrible experience. And for what reason? Simply to be cruel, I think. Laws be damned in 🇺🇸 now it seems.
-
😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢
-
Yes. Thank god!!
-
It was the work not the prayers. Prayers do nothing but help the person praying feel just a little better about themselves for doing nothing.
-
Rachel, I’d love to have a T-shirt that says It’s not coming. It’s here! Thank you so much for your weekly show and your insight !
-
What about the majority of “detainees” who do NOT enjoy privileged connections to people with the power to successfully fight for their release? Those are the people I am most worried about.
-
Thank you Rachel...🇺🇸💙🇺🇸💙🇺🇸💙🇺🇸
-
A really great show tonight, Rachel! And special kudos to that woman at the Nebraska town hall who said, "“How much does it cost for fascism? How much do the taxpayers have to pay for a fascist country?” What a moment. I hope it goes viral on social media.
-
Because DT is not opening the Epstein files. Could the victims start naming the pedophiles that they are in the list?
-
Yay!
-
Rachel, thank you for shining a light on these stories. Your voice creates action. Please keep going. It means everything.
-
Just love your show!
-
Thuggery behavior fueled by $$ & assembled & supported by the tyrant leader of our government! Disgusting 🤬😡
-
The congressman from NY 17 is claiming to have secured the release.
-
It’s a miracle that she was delivered from evil. Let’s pray for those still being held.
-
the goon squads aren't asking religious affiliation. the goon squads go by SKIN COLOR.
-
Thank Mom Almighty. Why we have to fight for every single life...we are headed for a conflagration if we don't find a civil solution soon.
-
Why do we have to fight, yell and scream to get innocent people released from ice detention?
What happens to the detainees who have no one to fight for them? Do they just disappear, are they just a body that funds the Ice concentration system?
Our tax money is funding those private prisons. 😡
-
I'm so glad she got out of there.
-
Nothing says sent from God like disappearing the child of the head of the Episcopal Church.
-
Another f*****scare tactic, but playing with people's lives! Disgustingly cruel, what else! DT jealousy showing!!
-
Shameful……attacking a person with a valid R-2 card
-
This ENTIRE debacle was shameful & 100% harassment! ICE knew there wasn't a problem. It was done fir INTIMIDATION only. Just Homan, Miller & Tramp being evil bullies.
-
P.S. Made me sad that you said, we are there. Autocracy. But I think we already knew. Too many things.
-
Rachel Maddow I have been a long time fan. Please start bringing more attention to the genocide in Gaza. The United States is complicit and it needs to stop. This is the moral issue of our time ❤️ 🇵🇸
-
This is some scary stuff.
-
You can explain to Americans what other talking heads won’t say out loud. Ghislaine Maxwell is the one person who knows everything about Donald Trump’s activities with Jeffrey Epstein. EVERYTHING. That’s why Todd Blanche visited. She knows everything. It’s obvious. Now say it out loud.
-
How many don't have this access? It's a crime against humanity. You also stated that the tyrant has control of universities, law firms, most media outlets, and the judicial and legislative branches, making sure we are no longer a democracy but a full-blown authoritarian government. It took 6 months.
-
Is someone tracking the folks being disappeared?
-
Thank you for the update. This really has me disgusted.
-
Shame on you, America.
-
It is heartbreaking many do not have a community of advocates to fight for them. A protest I attended that touched my heart, a small group, was at the El Salvador Consulate in Aurora CO. They have written 1000 letters to Bukele. Never forget the inhumanity. indivisibledenveraction.org

Great show last night. (Watched it twice.) THANK YOU for just coming right out and calling it what it is!
-
New Sanctuary Movement in Philadelphia has a similar mission. Founded by immigrants, for immigrants, it's both a faith organization and a nonprofit working for immigrant justice.
-
Now release the innocent who aren’t famous
-
Good broadcast tonight, Rachel
-
Pls you cannot retire. Your message last night went viral, and I swear it has shifted the entire feeling of the nation about where we stand with authoritarianism. We’re here and you helped declare it. You are so important to what is happening now. We need you.
-
ICE agents stand outside these courtrooms, WHERE PEOPLE ATE DOING THE RIGHT THING, and get to tick them off like carnival targets. Clearly they can come for any of us. Can you prove your status at all times? Should anyone have to, in a “free” country?
-
It was an amazing opening segment Rachel- one of your best! And so happy this poor girl has been finally released
-
These are but a few of the many people abused by trump’s immigration reign of terror. Very few are actual violent criminals. The majority simply want to work & raise their children in peace. Trump & his minions are the violent ones.
-
Thankfully she was released. She was extremely lucky!
-
Nope. Madcow.
-
Thank goodness
-
Whether it's Genocide Joe or Death-Dealing Don, Ms Maddow is strangely silent on Gaza.
-
Nice job Rachel !🙏😃
-
Excellent.
Laying that Priest part on extra thick made it impossible for them to fight back.
-
Prayers get first mention then all the folks who worked on it?
LOL.
-
This criminal behavior will not stop until the kidnappers are held responsible and suffer real consequences. The state should apprehend and arrest these thugs and their bosses.
-
I'm very pleased to hear that she has been released. We shouldn't have to prove that these people are innocent. ICE needs to prove that they aren't before they detain them.
-
A beautiful example of faith in action and the power of community advocacy.So heartening to see persistence and love bring about justice and reunion.
-
@maddow.msnbc.com Thank u
-
A rip-roaring good show.
-
I love.
-
What about the gay hair dresser????
-
🥰
-
Too bad Cardinal Dolan of NYC loves this FOTUS.
-
So the archdiocese might want to think about the fact that some months ago, when the conclave was taking place, I watched on EWTN as a pundit from the heritage foundation was introduced to make comments… It’s never a good idea to try to mop up the water when you haven’t turned off the water faucet.
-
It's good to see there are Xtains who practice what they preach.
-
Christian Nationalist will soon demand the deportation of the Catholic Church for this!
-
Thanks so much for all you do, Rachel! You're a godsend these days. I have no doubt that she was freed quickly after you featured her plight at the start of your show.
-
Korea needs to get busy
-
These people are here LEGALLY. Arresting folks who are in the immigration process legally is a betrayal of our American values. ICE should never be allowed in our court rooms for arresting purposes.
-
So much for the worst of the worst 😪
-
Where’s the Catholic Church speaking out in force about the injustices happening?
Crickets.
They work to help one immigrant in a city of tens of millions of immigrants who are threatened and frightened.
Meanwhile…everything that’s happening ????
#ChristiansDidThis
The Catholic Church? complicit
-
Makes me proud of my former religion
-
It never should have happened in the first place. That poor traumatized young woman.
-
The mere thought that people can be simply in a court and grabbed for no purpose, says anyone can be taken and can be in a general place. Will it be bus stops, hospital, bars, amusement parks? Nobody is safe by any chance.
-
Any other presidency this would be a huge PR disaster
-
📌
-
Rachel... Rachel... Rachel.... you seriously don't know what is happening to these young girls??? We are talking about men who were trafficking young girls out of their establishments. This started long before he became president but think of all those girls missing in his first tenure...
-
Scary good episode-Straight Up Pull No Punches👊‼️Thanks Rachel‼️‼️ youtu.be/5S0iyAu-jog
-
This entire situation is inhumane and certainly not Christian in any way.
-
Happy to hear she was released. But what about all the innocent people still in detention camps that don’t have money or power to get released.
-
Hope
-
Tired of ICE arresting innocent law-abiding people and US citizens indiscriminately.
-
Thank God. I just wish all of the detainees would also be released. Why are we the people putting up with this?
-
Even Hitler managed to keep the Catholic Church onside, at least for awhile. It's liking watching the third Reich on fast forward.
-
You shouldn't have to pray for felons to release those they illegally kidnapped. You should attack the felons and stomp on them until they give up.
-
Some good news for today
-
Thank you for always highlighting the humanity of Americans and, in turn, the inhumanity of Donald Trump. As a Canadian, we hope your people survive this assault on their freedoms and future, to prosper again, and we continue to be each other’s closest ally.
-
I can’t help but notice the absence of top Democratic officials among those thanked.
-
👏👏👏👏
-
Being an Episcopalian and compassionate human, I'm grateful that she'll be reunited with her family soon. Let us rejoice in the Lord! He hears you.
-
Happy the young lady was released and back with her mom.
-

Last night's A block was the other shoe. We are an autocracy. I'm glad the Trumpstapo released the daughter of an Episcopal priest, but why was she targeted in the first place? You, Tim, Anne, Masha, Ruth, Mehdi, and so many others have been warning us for years.
-
THE PARTY of endless immorality and corruption—the Republicans—once again covers itself in un-American disgrace.
-
Kudos to all that helped!

But why the H did this happen in the first place? And what innocent person will be next?

ALL of those SNATCHED & KIDNAPPED should be Released from CONCENTRATION CAMPS & offered DUE PROCESS!!!
-
Episcopalians; We get the job done!
-
Had they talked to her & asked her status, they would have known she is legally here. Proves what everyone is saying; they are grabbing ppl based on skin color. It has nothing to do with following the law. I hear there are "bounties" given to these thugs per person they jail.
-
When the church is fighting the Christian nationalist government. Interesting times we’re in.
-
Where’s His Eminence Timothy Cardinal Dolan, Archbishop of New York?????
-
There was no reason to detain this young woman. She had a legal Visa. How many others are detained without her families resources and community support?
-
Rachel — your opening monologue last night brought out my raised fist, my tears, anger, sadness.
I am hesitant to say things like this, but you did something important last night.
With your excellent writing, you articulated and summarized what we all feel and want to say.
Keep it up and how!

You guys have a civil war starting. Better shore up quick or Republicans are winning this one.

ANYONE with any contact with DOJ, DOS, USCIS, for any reason, is now at risk. Anyone who may be in possession of asylum, an N-400, N-600, a current Visa or apparently US citizenship is at risk of detention, deportment, incarceration, removal or physical harm. No one is 'safe'. There is no safe.
-
Frank was taken by Nazis today.
History repeats.
-
Hate to be a cynic here, but you might want to do some prayer for the thousands of innocent people who are also being detained and/or deported by the Regime.
-
All communities of faith or conscience need to come together and demand the abolition of ICE, and the prosecution of all their kidnappers and torturers.
It's not enough for these despicable cowards to be punished in the next life, they must face consequences in this one as well. Jail, then Hell.

Great show as usual tonight. Miss your daily 100 days reporting. You should get Nobel Prize or at Least a Twain Award for reporting excellence.
-
ICE are Trump's Predator Squad. Terrorizing the Innocents.
-
Rachel, Thank you for your repeated message that WE ARE HERE. My brilliant, hopeful & politically progressive 73-yr old sister has seen as much as I have but couldn’t bring herself to say we are living in a fascist nation. Your words do make a difference to her & to many others like her.
-
Everyone person responsible for this arrest should be held accountable. The person who authorized it and the ICE bullies who carried out the arrest.
-
I would not be surprised if the Priest and her daughter leave our country. It's unfortunately not a safe harbor for them. Good show Rachel! Thank you!
-
I had my head in my hands at the conclusion of your opening block. An image of the 1950s "The Blob" and its devouring everybody in its path came to mind....but we don't have a heroic Steve McQueen to interrupt the rampage. So far...
-
She was obviously taken to fill a quota, not because she committed a crime.
I'm thrilled she is out of custody.
-
Thanks for the story & all the work you and your team do Every. Damn. Day. 👏
-
Thank goodness for that one person. I’m happy she’s safe.
Good thing she had the representation of her mother’s parishioners and Rachel Maddow.
Now imagine the thousands who do not…
-
Gee if only the Church had a punishment they could use to bring Catholic employees of Homeland Security and members of Opus Dei back to morality. Something like, IDK, excommunication.

People just don’t seem reliable when they say, “our prayers have been answered”. They don’t understand that that would mean that their God that they pray to a allowed Trump to become president, ice to run rapid over America, kidnapping humans for days and weeks then letting them go free. Yay ur God!

Thank goodness. Now if we can get due process for all those innocents in Alligator Alcatraz...

Soooo many still being kidnapped, imprisoned, and deported (some to third countries for torture). In our name!

As a korean i was shocked to see this. Korea should wake up right now to see the ugly truth about America.
-
And why exactly was she detained in the first place? This shit has GOT to stop.
-
I'm glad so she got out.
-
Nice, but what about all the others?????
-
Thank God. But there are so many more who have disappeared who don't have an advocate. We need to keep fighting.
-
They are sending the message that we can grab any of you at any time, and if you aren't lucky enough to have people advocating for you, publicity, etc, you may get "lost" in the system. This young lady may have gotten out, but what about the ones who haven't? And future "detainees" (aka kidnapees).
-
Catholics fighting for the good cause wasn't in my bingo card. if we can clean out the pedos. They're everywhere huh. That's the problem. That's why Epstein is more than trolling. Thank you for sharing this and I hope the church sees this would be an amazing opportunity to REALLY clean up.- catholic
