Thursday

even when the family can afford visiting nurses, sitters, and other respite care. I doub his dad had anone he could call even if ICE had been humane enoigh to allow him to set up alternative care for his son.

The horror stories will just keep coming in. DHS must be definded out of existence and ICE must be completely disbanded. Both have been irretrievably broken by Noem, Miller, Lewandowsky , and the rest of the bigots and the people who want to burn this country to the ground.

Enough.
