Good news today:11 y/o detained by ICE for 6 months reunited with his mom who was here legally [View all]

Very emotional scene inside Dulles airport this morning when an 11 y/o, held by ICE for 6+ months, reunited with his mother & grandmother. He claimed asylum at the border and was detained, yet the mom was already living legally in VA. She sued the Trump administration & won.
