I boarded a flight to Europe today and ICE agents were waiting inside the jetway to detain people. People trying to leave the US. There was one African guy in front of me who was detained and did not board after that. Like we’re literally detaining the people that want to leave and forcing them into detention camps.

Whole country is fucked, no bueno, everyone should leave ASAP.
