Nasra Ahmed, a 23-year-old US citizen, was arrested and detained by ICE. She was held for TWO DAYS.
ICE agents handcuffed her, called her a racial slur, and she was knocked to the ground so hard she got a concussion.
This cannot continue happening. ICE needs to leave.

How much of his funding comes from people who gave money to Trump? 90%?
BREAKING: Per OCPF, Josh Kraft has received contributions of $100 or less from only 117 Boston residents.
That's $6,705 out of over $3 million raised (0.2%).
Six months into the campaign (on 8/4), the story tells itself.
