I know you've heard that a federal judge ordered the release of 5 year old Liam Conejo Arias and his father, and that they're now home.
But did you look at the judge's order?
It's less than 2.5 pages and well worth a minute. "Jesus wept."

ICE is running a “conveyor belt” of illegally detained Minnesota families.
Agents are arresting entire families with legal status and immediately shipping them off to Texas to deny them legal representation and avoid the federal courts in Minnesota.
The cruelty is endless.

A Mexican immigrant was taken to a hospital after bones in his face & skull were broken while in federal custody. ICE said he tried to flee while handcuffed and “purposefully ran headfirst into a brick wall," but hospital staffers said that couldn't explain fractures & bleeding throughout his brain.

Trump, Trump's son and Elon Musk allegedly present at an event at Mar-a-Lago where children were auctioned off, and forced to have sex with Trump at the age of 13. Again, this appears to be an entirely separate account by a different accuser. They all seem very similar.
