The cruelty is the point.
I hope this sweet kiddo can access the care she needs to make a full recovery, and shame on those ICE agents who thought this was “ok”
This is why we speak out. Unspeakable horrors are happening all around us and if we stay silent, it will change us.
Don’t stay silent. Resist.
