Judge Excoriates Trump's DHS; Orders 5-year-old Liam RELEASED! - Glenn Kirschner
I'm sure you've heard the reporting about five year-old Liam Conejos Ramos, who ICE grabbed up on his way home from preschool, used as bait to lure his father out of the house, and jailed them both – put them both in detention, - even whisking them away from their home in Minnesota to a detention facility in Texas.
This inhumane treatment by the Trump administration prompted an outcry, both nationally and internationally. But it also prompted something more: a short, two-page court order from a federal judge in Texas, that is as unique as it is powerful.
That court order may prove to be historic when the age of the Trump-induced darkness comes to an end. - Glenn Kirschner - 02/01/2026.
