      🚨 Disturbing footage shows the brutal arrest of a terrified 16-year-old girl—sobbing, screaming as “ICE agents” abducted her mom without a warrant or ID. At least 4 grown men slammed her face into the pavement. 
This is child abuse.
This is state terror.
Worcester police are complicit.

      ICE dragged a mother from her home in Massachusetts—clinging to her baby—without showing a warrant or ID. 
When neighbors demanded proof, ICE sneered, “We don’t have to show you anything.”
That’s not law enforcement. That’s state-sponsored kidnapping.
This is fascism & it’s terrifying.
