“Not One More is not an enforcement strategy.” - Cecilia Muñoz, Washington, D.C. Summer 2015, upon being silently shamed by immigration lawyers holding #EndFamilyDetention signs while she gave the keynote at the @AILANational annual conference.

We have not forgotten, @cecmunoz
She couldn’t even finish her prepared remarks. She couldn’t stay and look all of us in the eye. She knew.

She knew about the reports of children losing weight in the new for-profit baby jails she and her colleagues advised 44 to create.

She knew of the suicide attempts.
This article had already been published.

She knew.

They all did.

We are not going back to the reality they created.

A la basura.
Here’s them narrating this history themselves and blaming it all on Republicans.

Proudly proclaiming Napolitano “ended workplace raids” while ignoring the fact that she didn’t end home raids. This year will mark 10 years since the Clairmont Apt raid.

Live look at us trying to find their discussion of IIRIRA:
Anyway. If “Not One More” isn’t an enforcement strategy, opposing “kids in cages” isn’t, either.
They describe children seeking asylum alone at the southern border in 2014 as “an influx”, apparently oblivious to the fact that this frame was a political decision to seem tough for the midterms.
Obama was presented with an option NOT to do baby jails. He chose baby jails.
President Obama was fond of recounting what FDR allegedly told Philip A Randolph about Civil Rights when he met with immigrant youth: “I agree with you, now make me do it.” (He likely didn’t say that: representconsumers.org/2009/09/15/the…)

So that’s what we’re gonna do. They invited this.
Name for me, please, what it’s called when a leader elects to imprison people for political, electoral gain.
Anyway, y’all can float these trial balloons all you want. #NiUnoMas #AbolishICE #DefundThePolice
