- DHS just sent another statement about ICE’s abduction of a 5-year-old in Minnesota. They didn’t address my question about whether the child was moved to Texas. They also didn’t provide any evidence for their claims. They are, however, claiming the child’s “alleged mother” actually abandoned him.

But their excellent and deserving inclusion of The Secret Agent shows that they didn't do this on autopilot. Good start!
