If you were too young in 2003 here is what Bush told the American people:
1) The Iraq War won’t cost a lot of money
3) We won’t need a lot of troops
4) We’ll bring peace and freedom to Iraq

6) We’ll be welcomed as liberators
7) It will be easy
8) It won’t take long

They didn’t just deport him—they sent him to CECOT in El Salvador.
Agelviz came here legally through the refugee resettlement program—fully vetted. But when he landed in Houston, CBP snatched him over a tattoo: a clock and a rose.
