The Kids Trump Sent to ICE’s Dilley Detention Center
---

ProPublica went inside the detention center for immigrant families in Dilley, Texas. Children held there told us about the anguish of being ripped from their lives in the United States and the fear of what comes next.

@ProPublica “Although a long-standing legal settlement generally limits the time children can be held in detention to 20 days, a data analysis by ProPublica found that about 300 kids sent to Dilley by the Trump administration were there for more than a month.”

“[one girl] 18, told me she had been detained for more than eight months with her mom and four siblings, ranging in age from 16 to 5-year-old twins”

@ProPublica

Mark them all with Exhibit numbers.

We'll need that, later.

@ProPublica It cuts me to my core to read about kids being mistreated like this. They haven't done anything to deserve it. ICEholes may as well be abusing kitties and puppies. That might get the public's attention.
