A mother and her three children were snatched by ICE from a dairy farm in Sackets Harbor, a rural town in northern New York.

"The group includes unaccompanied minors awaiting reunification with their families in the U.S. as well as Afghans at risk of Taliban retribution because they fought for the former U.S.-backed Afghan government."

Wonder if GOP critics of Biden admin's Afghanistan withdrawal have thoughts on this.
