Photo shows a young girl with her cat
This is Maria, a 6-year-old detained by ICE last year.
She began to unravel soon after arriving at a detention center in Texas, wetting the bed after years without accidents, crying through the night and begging to breastfeed again.
Most of all, she wanted to be reunited with her cat, Milo. 1/

one thing the trump era has made clear, i think, is that the american people themselves are far more committed to the values of our founding documents than our elites

70% of ICE detainees have no criminal convictions, according to govt data.
Donβt fall for Trumpβs lies about targeting the βworst of the worst.β
As ICE terrorizes cities to fill up detention centers, remember that some of Trump's major donors are private prison corporations.

One citizen said that federal agents in Idaho pointed guns at her children, ages 6 and 8, and dragged her 14-year-old daughter out of a truck and zip-tied her.
The mother told investigators that an agent threatened to βfucking blow your head off.β
