I have put the videos I found below. Notice that the governor and the attorney general blame the kids and claim the schools have taught them radical left wing extremism. The kids see the news media about what ICE is doing and have friends who are not white. They are angry and they are future voters. That is what scares the republican leadership in Texas so much they are demanding schools push a hard right Republican bigoted racist agenda onto schoolchildren in the hopes of raising a new bunch of maga. They don’t blame te adult man who got out of his truck and walked into a group of minors with the intention to force his angry racist maga views on them. Note he shoved a girl. In his mind how dare she talk back to a male? That is who maga thugs have degenerated into. Hugs
The DOJ is making it as difficult as possible for the congress people to see the files. Only 4 computers are set up for hundreds of congress people. Plus they are still redacted not of the victims but of the names of the abusers. Hugs

Summary
Child had severe respiratory illness, lawsuit says
DHS says child received proper medical care and medications
Trump faces criticism for immigration detention practices
NEW YORK, Feb 7 (Reuters) – An 18-month-old girl detained for weeks by U.S. immigration authorities was returned to custody and denied medication after being hospitalized with a life-threatening respiratory illness, according to a lawsuit filed in Texas federal court.
The child, identified in the lawsuit as “Amalia,” was released by immigration authorities in President Donald Trump‘s administration after her parents sued on Friday. The parents, who also had been detained, were released as well. The suit had sought the release of all three of them.
In a statement provided on Monday following the publication of this story on Saturday, U.S. Department of Homeland Security spokeswoman Tricia McLaughlin said claims that Amalia did not receive proper medical treatment or medications were false.
The family was detained during a check-in with immigration authorities on December 11 and held at a facility in Dilley, Texas, according to the lawsuit. Amalia was hospitalized from January 18 to 28, and returned to the Dilley facility in the midst of a measles outbreak, the lawsuit said.
“Baby Amalia should never have been detained. She nearly died at Dilley,” said Elora Mukherjee, an attorney for the family.
Mukherjee said hundreds of children and families detained at Dilley lack sufficient drinking water, healthy food, educational opportunities or proper medical care, and should be released.
McLaughlin said in the statement on Monday that the child immediately received medical care after becoming ill, was admitted to a hospital for treatment and returned to the Dilley facility after being cleared for release by a pediatric doctor. Amalia was housed in the medical unit upon her return and received proper treatment and prescribed medicines, the statement said.
“It is a longstanding practice to provide comprehensive medical care from the moment an alien enters ICE custody. This includes medical, dental, and mental health intake screening within 12 hours of arriving at each detention facility, a full health assessment within 14 days of entering ICE custody or arrival at a facility, and access to medical appointments and 24-hour emergency care,” McLaughlin said.
Trump’s administration has been accused of heavy-handed and inhumane tactics as well as violating court orders while carrying out his mass deportation program.
A federal judge in Michigan criticized the administration in a January 31 ruling ordering the release of a five-year-old boy – seen in a viral photo wearing a blue bunny hat outside his house as federal agents stood nearby – who was detained by immigration agents in Minnesota. The administration is now seeking to deport the boy.
Amalia’s parents, originally from Venezuela, have lived in the United States since 2024 with their daughter, who is a Mexican citizen, according to the lawsuit. The lawsuit says all three intend to file asylum applications in the United States.
Amalia developed a fever on January 1 that reached as high as 104 degrees Fahrenheit (40 degrees Celsius), started vomiting frequently and struggled to breathe, according to the lawsuit.
She was taken to the hospital on January 18 with extremely low oxygen saturation levels and diagnosed with COVID-19, respiratory syncytial virus, viral bronchitis and pneumonia, according to the lawsuit. She was placed on supplemental oxygen.
Amalia was given a nebulizer and a respiratory medication upon her discharge from the hospital, but these were taken away by detention center staff upon her return, according to the lawsuit. The girl has lost 10% of her body weight and was given nutritional drinks to help her regain it, but these were also confiscated by authorities, according to the lawsuit.

February 3, 2026 – A MAGA fascist got out of his ridiculous truck and attacked a peaceful high school walkout protest against ICE in Buda, Texas, and quickly got his ass handed to him by a bunch of antifascist high-schoolers.
“And DON’T tell the internet that I got my ass beat by 2 dozen children. Do NOT put it on the news.”
At the end of this clip the guest describes the conditions the kids are being held under in these for profit prisons. Horrible food, prison like conditions which means no freedom of movement, and other things. Remember the boy and his father are here legally like so many others scooped up by these racist ICE goon Gestapo gang thugs and the tRump admin. Hugs
The 2 year old got her hand cut during the attack on him. The father signed his deportation order because he worried they would keep coming back after his daughter and wanted to spare her that. The racists got what they wanted. The video also describes how ICE was arresting people, detaining them, and then releasing them in other parts of the country. Hugs
This a new little book I made about Ciel’s struggle to come out during a sleepover at Stephie’s place, back when they were in 4th grade.
To be honest, I made it for three specific reasons : first, I needed a break from the pressure of having everything I draw available on the internet, which allows a lot of visibility but also a lot of vulnerability to haters and transphobes. I needed to create something that would be relatively immuned to the attacks that I get for making this comic.
Second, I made it because I’ve been wanting to revisit the beginning of Assigned Male for some time now. The learning curve has been very steep since I started it two years ago, and I quickly grew unsatisfied with the first 30 strips or so of the series. I’ve been wanting to redraw those for a while, and this short story about Ciel and Stephie was the perfect opportunity for that.
Third, there are things that I needed to talk about and themes I wanted to explore that just couldn’t fit in the webcomic format. Important stuff like confidence, trans femme friendships or the feeling of getting to know ourselves better.
Hey there! So I’ve been juggling with this idea for some time, and I think now is the best time to launch it, a little more than one month before back-to-school.
As a former elementary school teacher, I know how limited classroom budgets are, but as someone who grew up trans, I also know how important it is for trans youth to be in contact with positive trans fictional characters. So here’s my idea :
I made this children’s book titled “A Girl Like Any Other” about four yearsago, about a young girl’s transition and her family and friends. It’s basically the book that launched my career as an author. It allowed me to meet some of the most amazing families that I know, and gave me the background setting for my comic.
As it’s almost back-to-school time, I want to send copies of the book for free to elementary teachers that are willing to have it in their classrooms. All they will have to do is to message me their school’s address on Tumblr or by email before August 15th. I will also send them a link to download my “Genderific Coloring book” for free.
The goal is to get the budget to print 200 copies as well as enough money to cover shipping fees for all over the world. I’ll adjust the goal if I see that the demand is higher than that.
It costs around 8$ to print one single copy, and we can estimate a 4$ median for the shipping (it’s 2.50$ for Canada – where I live, – 3$ for the US and 5.50$ worldwide). We need to add 7% for the handling of the money by GoFundMe and Paypal, so that’s 12.84$ per copy – and 2568$ for 200 copies.
If there’s any money left from the campaign, it will be donated to the Trans Lifeline.
Please share widely (and pass the info to teachers)!
Last call to get this book into classrooms!
Since the beginning of the school year two weeks ago, I’ve been receiving messages from teachers asking for resources to help with trans children in their classrooms. I’m giving away copies of this children’s book I made about a trans girl for free to K-6 teachers around the world! Just send me a message if you want it for the school you’re teaching in.
Also, I just wanted to say a huge THANK YOU to those who already participated or asked for a book for their workplace. It makes me believe in community power even more. ❤
Sorry this is late. I have been sick for three days. Just really worn and tired. But I will try to get more sleep and stop stressing and hopefully will feel better soon. I made a large baked ziti yesterday and I made pictures and videos so I will post them soon. Hugs
“F.Y.I.—he’s not ready to laugh at the cliché of violent authoritarianism in a failing kingdom.”
Making no profits has given this ethical failure and unassimilated racist immigrant the possibility to become a trillionaire through massive taxpayer-funded subsidies and outrageous tax cuts.
The video below has people recounting the gang thug brutality of ICE attacking and shooting people doing nothing wrong. ICE thugs were totally out of control and had no respect for civil rights or the lives of the people they attacked. The ICE thugs seemed to be jacked up in rage by some substance and enjoyed causing pain and being cruel. Hugs
The video below details how the ICE gang thugs were bragging about shooting innocent people. The thugs did not care how brutal they were with the woman but instead seemed to relish being allowed to be so brutal. Hugs
The video below details the conditions at the ICE concentration camp, including that a 2 month old baby is being held there. Hugs
