🚨BREAKING: DHS is trafficking twin FIVE-YEAR-OLDS and refusing to release them because they “lack property and assets.” Twin five year olds have been detained at the Dilley detention center for EIGHT MONTHS. An immigration judge denied them bond because of “a lack of property” and “a lack of assets.” And no, this wasn’t based on their family. This decision was made separately, for each child, as an individual. So, the U.S. government is now arguing that FIVE YEAR OLDS are too poor to be free. Which tends to be the case for most 5 year olds. And, as a result, DHS is continuing to hold these children, after already imprisoning them for eight months, in a for-profit concentration camp. That is child trafficking. So now, because the government has decided that kindergartners must meet a wealth requirement to not be trafficked, a GoFundMe has been started so these FIVE YEAR OLDS can acquire “assets” and buy their freedom from U.S. custody. And this is all by design… The Trump administration dismantled long-standing child detention protections, including moving to override the Flores Settlement, which limited how long children could be held and required their release to family whenever possible. Those safeguards were replaced with policies that allow children to be detained for months and denied bond, all to make CoreCivic more money. This is what happens when human rights are replaced with profit margins. (GoFundMe link is in the comments.)
