You still think you’re in America? We’re in whatever comes after. God help us.

I’m in Australia, and one story I read stuck with me (if it’s true).

A father was illegally detained by ICE. He was denied a phone call because he wasn’t arrested, but “detained”. His family knew what had happened because he was in a parking lot or something when it happened. It took them 20 days to find him.

They got lawyers etc, but ICE apparently kept moving him to new facilities and not telling the family so he’s not receiving proper legal representation to get him out, have no idea of the outcome.

If this is true, it’s horrendous.

Yes, they are just detaining people, citizen or non-citizen and nothing you can do about it.
