ICE left David, a 17-year-old boy, stranded on the side of Interstate 20 after pulling over his immigrant father, Hector, in Mississippi.

David began running in the scorching sun after the car and watched as it disappeared from sight—soon headed to a Louisiana ICE prison.

Here's their story.

BREAKING: Trump doesn't remember/believe/understand HE was president on January 6, 2021

This is how unstable, how mentally unbalanced, how much of a dangerous mixture of dishonesty and insanity Trump is:

"Biden's FBI?" By Jan. 6 2021, TRUMP had run the FBI for 1,448 days #25A

It's not just that Trump needs to be removed from office under the 25th Amendment

It's that in a sane world all his gullible, culpable bat-guano-brained followers would be removed under their own 25th Amendments as well

Trump: "America is under invasion from within. We're under invasion from within. No different than a foreign enemy, but more difficult in many ways because they don't wear uniforms. At least when they're wearing a uniform you can take them out."

Tim Dillon: "Children being zip tied, or a grandmother being zip tied, people who've maybe lived in a community 30 years and they're not committing a crime...showing up to a high school graduation and deporting someone's father, seems to a lot of people to be inhumane."

Huge mistake by Trump to let the 4'10 freak Stephen Miller take center stage during his Presidency. The more people hear and see from Mini Himmler the more they are repulsed. Plus the ICE raids are horrific and inhumane.

ICE drag girl out of car & body slam her to ground—then pin her face down & kneel on her neck.

"I'm 15!" she cries out. "I'm not resisting!"

Agents have now asked multiple area housing associations to unlock main doors—so they can go door to door.

Extremely disappointing that NH music hall cancels annual fundraiser for NH Women's Foundation due to it showing a film on abortion rights. Canceling 6 days prior is not being "neutral", it's a political statement.

Canceling an event for a documentary about abortion is not neutral. It is a political decision that is clearly anti-abortion.

Sadly, as public funding for the arts disappears, the dependency on corporate and wealthy donor fundraising means that proactively appeasing fascism and trashing the rights of women now appears to be on the agenda. #NHPolitics www.seacoastonline.com/story/news/l...

The fundraiser and abortion documentary screening moved to The Hawthorn event center in the Frank Jones Brew Yard/Portsmouth.

Two protesters showed up at the new location. TWO.

Shame on you, Music Hall.
