What on earth is the point of detaining them for so long? How horrible.

And flying them from Tacoma to a freezing cell in Pennsylvania for their infant to be wrapped in rotted blankets that smelled like a dead dog.

This is how we treat passport-carrying Brits with a small child? This isn't a little error. This is institutionalized inhumanity. This now IS the American state. This is us. We own it.
