Under a zero tolerance policy, the first Trump administration separated immigrant children from their families at the U.S.-Mexico border.

New data suggests separations now happen all over the country, often after little more than a traffic stop.

A new report found that Venezuelans shipped to El Salvador were beaten almost every day.

The men sent to CECOT by the Trump administration used their own blood to write “we are migrants, not terrorists” on a bed sheet.
