Unpopular Opinion: Don't Use Our Immigrant Military Kids To Enforce Deportation
Politicians using the military for immigration enforcement, fear-mongering, or photo ops betrays every service family. Marines like my son serve the Office of the President—not an egomaniac.

I was proud to stand up for our city in DC & able to do so effectively bc of the hardworking team who made the trip. Don’t have a private jet to transport everyone, but that also means there are no Qs about whether my family & I are profiting off Trump’s mass deportation policies.

Excellent piece! You're doing such important work – making space for kids to say what's on their minds and letting them know you'll be there for them.
