Welcome to a THREAD OF IMMIGRANT THREADS.

Remember Judge Sabraw’s words on President* Trump forcibly separating families:

"The hallmark of a civilized society is measured by how it treats its people and those within its borders.”

2/ On Aug 21, 2019, President* Trump decided NOT to vaccinate ANY of the children or families in U.S. custody.



THREAD explaining why President* Trump jailing so many people in cages could cause an epidemic:
3/ Mariee is first of #TrumpSeven — kids who died in US custody.

When this baby was in a cage, she caught a disease that killed her.

HER DEATH WAS PREVENTABLE.



THREAD about Mariee:
4/ KIDS SHOULD NOT BE IN CAGES.

There is no safe way to detain a child.

Carlos died of influenza caught when he was in a cage on US soil. He is the most recent of the #TrumpSeven.

HIS DEATH WAS PREVENTABLE.



THREAD about Carlos:
5/ Jakelin is the 7-year-old girl who died in U.S. Border Patrol custody. #TrumpSeven

DHS Secretary* McAleenan lied to Congress about her death.

President* Trump lied to the American people about her death.



THREAD about Jakelin:
6/ President* Trump has set up a metastasizing network of concentration camps in America.

The #ThreadOfAwful explains how — little by little — he created conditions to erect #TrumpConcentrationCamps on U.S. soil.



THREAD of Awful:
7/ Lily Tomlin wisely observed:

“I always wondered why somebody doesn't do something about that. Then I realized I was somebody.”



THREAD of how we can help refugees and immigrants:
