A night at the Metropolitan Detention Center, Los Angeles Federal Building. I watched from 11 p.m. on July 11 until 3 a.m. on July 12th as they brought in vans of children, women and men. We could not get to them, but we could tell them we see them. And we will never stop fighting to reunite these families.

Blinding headache, and driving away, but there are more of us than there are of them. I should have said I wanted to join the counter-protest, since I think that’s more accurate. The MAGAts were protesting… I’m not sure what? It’s the Walk Away from the Left movement, because censorship or some shit.
