The only paths to resolving this that I am aware of are A) impeach RFK, and then prevent the confirmation of anyone who would continue this attempt to murder children by denying them access to life-saving healthcare.

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.
