Summary

Wisconsin resident Bradley Bartell voted for Trump’s promise to crack down on “criminal illegal immigrants,” but now his Peruvian wife Camila Muñoz has been detained by ICE.

Muñoz, from Peru, overstayed her visa but had applied for legal residency. On their way home from a honeymoon, immigration agents detained her at a Puerto Rico airport.

Despite no criminal record, she remains in a Louisiana detention center. Her case reflects ICE’s broadened enforcement that now includes documented immigrants.

Bartell, once supportive of stricter immigration policies, now questions the impact on families like his own.

        Friend you’re on the wrong instance. .ml has a spot open for you, all you have to do is cry about “the libs” like a Trumper and you’re in.

          Okay I’m jumping on this sword… When Israel attacked Palestinians, I was like yeah baby! 9-11? Now kiss my entire…but then we heard the US was helping and finally… Innocent people are being followed by drone and bombed…oh man, kiss my entire… WTF is the US doing? No, no! Not in our name! Why doesn’t Joe Bidden stop it? Totally wrong side of history. The only saving grace is that the world knows how powerful we are…but also we’re just dumb fucks and now with trump we’re also assholes. We’re both the most powerful nation in the world, but just too stupid to figure out who to hit.

          As an example, Ukraine. Why didn’t we go and bomb Ukraine??? Under trump that’s a valid question. A sane person might wonder instead, where’s putin now and how can we deliver as many bombs as possible directly to him for him to keep and personally observed their functionality POV. Even now, we could do this. Just find the guy and drop some good stuff on him. A grand piano, an ACME anvil, anything, rocks. But ger him to “understand” our point of view about the things he is doing.
