6 year old Yuanxin was separated from his father after a routine immigration check in on Nov. 26th.
Yuanxin's father was not told where his son was being sent.
Yuanxin'swhereabouts are still unknown.
This young man may go on to do great things in his life. And I hope he does. But even if he wins the Nobel Prize, he'll always be remembered for this incident: www.nbcnews.com/news/world/a...

Somali immigrants: President Trump unleashed a xenophobic tirade against Somali immigrants during a cabinet meeting on Tuesday, calling them "garbage" he does not want in the United States in an outburst that captured the raw nativism that has animated his approach to immigration. Even for Mr. Trump - who has a long history of insulting Black people, particularly those from African countries - his outburst was shocking in its unapologetic bigotry. And it came as he started a new ICE operation targeting Somalis in the Minneapolis-St. Paul region.

Original tweet from @WallStreetApes reads "White people are on the verge of extinction Global population of white people: 100 years ago roughly 35% 50 years ago roughly 20% 25 years ago 15% Today just 8% White people are the minorities and must take their countries back. No more tolerance.
