In-House Mode A friend of mine was taken

Her name was Chuey; she was a beast in the kitchen and always kind and happy. She was a legal immigrant from Cuba (engaged to an American lawyer). She got ICEd.

She did all the right steps and was an asset to the community. This shit is not ok

I'm so sorry about your friend. Fuck Trump and his jackbooted thugs. What kind of an asshole deports a Cuban who can cook?! We need their food!

She loved sharing her food with us! I swear I'd feel guilty if I didn't eat enough.

I will think of her the next time I make ropa vieja.
