I'm so sick of people trying to equate murders that were committed by an individual who was then prosecuted and jailed to murders that were committed by a unnamed officers of a governmental force, and are now being covered up by the government. They are not the same thing.

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.

Unimaginable cruelty.

It is obscene that any member of Congress is suggesting that we can EO our way out of murder. Pass laws to reform ICE or get out of your damn job to make way for people who understand Congress' role. But don't ask for Trump to fix the mess your cowardice created. . (2/2)
