This should not have happened to this beautiful, sweet little boy. He deserves all the hugs and kisses in the world.

But Liam was scared and frequently asked what they had done wrong, where they were and what happened to the little blue knit hat he wore the day he was detained, Conejo said. There wasn’t much he could say to his son, “except hug him and tell him everything would be OK,” Conejo said. Worried about further upsetting his son, Conejo said, he was forced to bite back his own tears. Liam has since been reunited with his hat and continues to wear it, even inside the house, his dad said Thursday. Asked how he might one day explain to Liam everything that has happened, Conejo said he would tell his son that he had become the face of hope and change. "He was the global figure who did all this so that the voices of the people demanding freedom would be heard, especially those of the children who are still locked up," Conejo said. “I would tell him he was very brave and that I am very proud of him.”

Take action!

Every person residing in the United States is constitutionally guaranteed access to a free and independent press. The Trump administration has repeatedly interfered with this right, in direct violation of the First Amendment.

Freedom unless you want to criticize: Trump, Charlie Kirk, ICE, Christian nationalism, white supremacists, or anything MAGA.
Or truth about: Palestinians, U.S. history, climate science, LGBTQ people, gender-based violence, banned books... list is far too long for one post. 🍎 #SSChat 📚 #AcademicSky

Mike Johnson: "The last time I checked, Americans have more freedom right now to express themselves and speak their minds after Republicans took over ... it is the Republicans who restored your right to share and speak your mind."

I think one of the worst things about having an addiction to Twitter and then BluSky over the last decade is that I will scroll for a while and then go, "I'm depressed, why is that?" and then have to think back to something I read five minutes earlier.
