ICE and Their Brutality

This section will keep you up to date on ICE, the new Trump Police Force! It is after Black and Brown people throughout the US, and it is crazy. We will look at Kilmar Armando Ábrego García, Andry Hernandez Romero, Mahmoud Khalil, eonsoo Go, the 20-year-old daughter of an Episcopal priest, Rümeysa Öztürk, a Tufts University doctoral student and Turkish national, Narciso Barranco, an undocumented gardener, and George Retes, US Citien and Veteran. It goes on and on. 14 people have died in detnetion facilities, US Congress Reps, Sentors, Layers,and Mayors have been handcuffed and arrested. Conditions are deplorable. People are not fed, given fresh water, allowed to bath, do not have beds or blankets,and are not given medicine or able to get nmedical care. We treated German POWs better during WWII. Alligator Alcatrez, the concentration camp in Florida is being shut down, but others are opening up across the county. Trump takes pleasure in the pain and suffering. Migrants are afraid to work, and we need them! There is the numer in South Park mocking Kristi Noem, but it is tragic.

We are going to start with the childrens' stories first, though.Stories detailing ICE raids involving the deportation of children reveal that families, including their U.S.-citizen children, have been detained and sent to their home countries, sometimes with little notice or opportunity to arrange for their children's care in the U.S. These events often result in children facing severe psychological and educational disruption, such as anxiety, panic attacks, and poor academic performance, due to the separation from their families and disrupted routines.

Examples and Case Studies

April 2025 New Orleans Deportations:In late April 2025, ICE deported two families to Honduras, including mothers and their U.S.-citizen children, with one child being just four years old and another having cancer. The families reported being held incommunicado and receiving little warning before their deportation.

2006 Minnesota Raid:

Following a raid on a meatpacking plant in 2006, a U.S. citizen child named Miguel was left to care for his two-year-old brother after his parents were detained and deported. Miguel, who was once a happy boy, became "catatonic" and experienced a significant decline in his school performance.

"I Thought I Was Just Going to an Appointment":

In April 2025, a woman named Julia was deported to Honduras with her children, one of whom is a U.S. citizen, after going to what she believed was a routine immigration appointment. She stated she was lied to and never imagined being sent to Honduras.

Impact on Children

Psychological Distress:

Children in these situations frequently suffer from anxiety, panic attacks, and depression due to the trauma of family separation and the stress of immigration enforcement.

Educational Disruption:

Deportations can lead to significant drops in academic performance and increased absenteeism in schools, particularly for students with immigrant parents or friends affected by raids.

Lack of Due Process:

Families have reported concerns about being held incommunicado and being deprived of their rights to legal counsel and to arrange for their children's welfare before deportation.
