Javier Abreu-Vasquez had a kidney transplant in 2023.
He was grabbed by ICE while delivering groceries to help his neighbours.
They’re refusing to give him his anti rejection meds.
Without them, he will lose the organ.

“Collection of Handwritten Letters from Children in Detention Center” sounds like an exhibit in the Holocaust Museum.
1/ ProPublica collected handwritten letters in mid-January from children held at the Dilley Immigration Processing Center, the same facility where 5-year-old Liam Conejo Ramos was taken.
Hundreds of kids are still detained.
We’ll let the children’s words speak for themselves. 🧵

ICE is likely paying a premium to get the deal through quickly. E.g., in Hamburg, PA, the warehouse was purchased in 2024 for $57.5 million and sold to ICE for $87 million.
The real profit will come with the private prison companies and contractors hired to refurbish and staff these facilities.

The political class and business elites would be happy to see attention to Epstein fade away. But the broader public won't allow it. They correctly sense something is rotten about the earlier investigations (or the lack thereof) and the current coverup...and they're right.

“She was at the brink of dying,” a lawyer told me.
But the girl didn’t go home after her 10-day hospital stay; instead, ICE put her and her mother back in lock up at Dilley.
