ICE detained Arlit Maria Martinez on her way to work. 2 days later, her 15 yo son died of cancer. They wouldn't let her out to say goodbye. The family had planned to move back to Mexico prior to the cancer diagnosis but stayed for his treatment. Now, Mr Martinez has lost his wife to ICE & his son.

Dems need to assert that attacking a NATO ally would be a direct violation of the president's duty to take care that the laws be faithfully executed, and therefore an impeachable offense. Treaties are the law of the land.
