When ICE saw that the people stuck in their cars were recording them, they blasted everyone with tear gas.
A young girl is in the hospital from it, and the man who is being interviewed his gf was taken even though she was born here.

No leveraged buyout with more than a minority of the money (like 10–20%) coming from loans should be legal.

They do this for all 9,386 US soldiers who died.
