A two month old-detained in the ICE concentration camp at Dilley-was rushed to the hospital this weekend
The boy’s extreme youth made him particularly vulnerable in a prison setting
Worse, they knew he was sick-and couldn’t care for him-because the facility didn’t even have a doctor

When Trump finally makes himself the Dictator of America, the first thing he's going to do is take your guns. Dictators don't let anyone have weapons for fear of a revolt. Read about Hitler's "Night of the Long Knives" if you want to see what Trump supporters can expect.
