Maher Tarabishi was detained in October during a scheduled check-in at an ICE facility.
He was the primary caretaker of his son, who died last week.
The family is seeking Maher's release so he can attend his son's funeral.
ICE reportedly denied the request.
Unimaginable cruelty.

I call on members of Law Enforcement to remember their duty to protect and serve the American People.
Those who know what this administration is really doing and stand up to the tyranny. Those members of the FBI and DOJ that can blow the whistle on the corruption and lies.

In a civilised society the military would turn on their despotic leader and remove him from power.
They would defend the constitution and protect the people.
The American people are not safe.
The constitution is under attack.
Remove him.

U.S. military spending is set to hit a record $1 trillion.
Roughly half of defense spending goes to private contractors that routinely price-gouge the government.
Meanwhile, the Pentagon has failed EIGHT straight audits.
This is the military industrial complex on steroids.

Iโve been in or around politics for over a half-century now.
Iโve watched as corporations and the super-rich flooded D.C. with campaign cash and ransacked our system.
It won't be easy, but hereโs how we break the corporate oligarchy and return power to the people.

Trump's Crypto Corruption, Explained
A UAE investment firm run by a member of the countryโs ruling family put $2 billion into the Trump familyโs crypto firm.
Then the White House gave the UAE access to hundreds of thousands of powerful computer chips needed to build AI.
Trumpโs crypto corruption is off the charts.

FDAโs Food Safety Chief Resigns
The chief said the loss of critical employees overseeing the nationโs food supply made his work impossible. Robert F. Kennedy Jr., the nationโs new health secretary, has pledged to gut the division.
FDA Food chief on his decision to leave FDA: โThe secretaryโs comments impugning the integrity of the food staff, asserting they are corrupt based on falsities, is a disservice to everyone."
Jim Jones had just hired food-chemical safety staff, who were laid off.

DOGE is a trojan horse for Elon Musk to gut labor, consumer, and environmental protections. If he actually wanted to cut waste, he'd look at the massive tax loopholes, government contracts, and subsidies that benefit the wealthy and large corporations.
The REAL Waste That Elon's DOGE Should Cut
DOGE is attacking federal agencies that protect millions of Americans from financial predators, infectious diseases, natural disasters, and air crashes.
Once again: this has nothing to do with making the government "efficient" โ and everything to do with who it works for.
