My sweet gardener was taken by ICE after living and working in the United States for 25 years.
Our neighbors came together to hire him an immigration lawyer for him and to help his family.

I’ll be writing more about it tomorrow on: substack.com/@barbarafwalter

“The worst is a system that can take a man away from his wife and two kids and leave him sitting in detention, terrified.
The best is a group of people who heard what happened and immediately asked: What can we do? And then they did it.
I’m betting on that America.“

The people who are ICE AGENTS are the lowest of the low. They are accessaries to murder. They have no self esteem and they depend on being a part ICE to feel valued. Sad and inadequate!
