“Even though she was still trying to produce breast milk for her daughter, Guzmán had limited access to food and water…and was never provided a breast pump… Guzmán was left to manage the pain of her C-section recovery as well as her Type 1 diabetes with the supplies she had in her backpack”
Her baby was in the NICU. She was in ICE detention.
Before Trump took office, postpartum immigrants were rarely detained by ICE. Nayra Guzmán was detained while her 15-day-old baby was in the NICU.

And the far-right is also bad because they're authoritarian. But I just don't see how you can compromise on a little treating some fellow citizens as unequal based on who their parents are and maintain your stance against them. At that point you've sold your soul and are just haggling over price.

"In short, social-democratic parties should stop chasing after far-right voters. This strategy is not just unsuccessful in the short run; by failing to win over these voters, it leads to the loss of progressive voters and prevents the rejuvenation of their ageing electorate in the future."
