Read it all please.
‘One officer told me that I "had no chance of returning to Minnesota" and that "the best thing for (me] is self-deportation." …
She offered me $2600 to self-deport.
I refused.
I wanted to talk to my attorney.
They didn't tell me the judge had already ordered my release and return to Minnesota.’

I live in Minnesota and I care about mental health.
Here's what's happening now because of ICE:
- Lots of people who never struggled with depression and anxiety disorders are now.
- People already dealing with severe mental illness are at much higher risk of suicide or disappearing from care.

Atlantic staff writer Robert Kagan: “We are heading into dictatorship if we are not already in dictatorship here in the United States.”
He tells Channel 4 🇺🇸 is in “much deeper trouble” than European leaders understand, and Europe should not expect the world to return to the old order after Trump

I know you've heard that a federal judge ordered the release of 5 year old Liam Conejo Arias and his father, and that they're now home.
But did you look at the judge's order?
It's less than 2.5 pages and well worth a minute. "Jesus wept."
