In Trump's America, a 17-year-old privileged, white teenage boy can’t be held accountable for sexually abusing teenage girls, but toddlers brought to America are detained, held in cages and expected to defend themselves in immigration court. Think about it.

I really need to say this. @MichelleObama talking about children in cages hurts a lot. So much. Her husband used to do this too. The fact that Trump is worse on this issue, doesn't make what they used to do to migrant children any better. Family detention was created under Obama.

We demand justice for Carlos Gregorio Hernandez-Vasquez. We demand answers. This child died at the hands of @CBP . He was 16. He was kept for 6 days in custody. Max is supposed to be 72 hrs for a minor. He was dying and was administered Tamiflu. He is the 5th death. Enough!

Dear Democrats in Congress (specially Senators), If you are not ready to support a path to citizenship as part of the reconciliation process, then please save your "I support #DACA recipients" tweets. You have the power to give us the relief we need. Use it.

BOTH parties have failed us for almost two decades since the Dream Act was introduced. Let's get the facts straight. YOU took our DACA away @realDonaldTrump . YOU ran on a platform to deport us. We will not forget. #NoDreamNoDeal

Democrats are doing nothing for DACA - just interested in politics. DACA activists and Hispanics will go hard against Dems, will start “falling in love” with Republicans and their President! We are about RESULTS.

We (Mexicans) defeated the French Empire in 1862 in the Battle of Puebla. That's all. No need to celebrate the day by pretending that you love Mexicans by wearing a sombrero and poncho. No need to remind us about all the stereotypes you have about us. No need. #CincodeMayo

My mother was a victim of domestic violence. We had to cross the border to be safe so that my mom, my siblings and I could be free from pain and suffering. I know exactly what it takes to migrate as a domestic violence survivor and it hurts so much to see this happening. #MeToo

Jeff Sessions has ordered immigration judges to stop granting asylum to most victims of domestic abuse and gang violence, a move that would block tens of thousands of people, especially women, from seeking refuge in America.

The rhetoric that the President used today hurt y’all. This personal for me. I’m so afraid of Trump winning, but I just can’t stay silent when a Democratic president who campaigned against the “kids in cages” party, speaks about our community in that way. Words matter. 🧵

Jeff Bezos over there visiting space and me over here begging the government to give me papers so I can drive 3 hours towards the border, cross it and be able to visit my family that I haven’t seen in 20+ years. 🙄 Freedom of movement is definitely a privilege is this world.

“Surge” “Border Crisis” “Illegals” “Aliens” Please make it stop. Mainstream media. Reporters. Understand that your narrative & framing of this issue has real consequences. You ARE partly responsible for what Trump was able to do with family separation. Stop dehumanizing us.

As someone who has been fighting to keep mom home after ICE put her in deportation proceedings, I believe that no one should have to go through that. But, wow! A white family is placed in deportation proceedings and now Fox News cares about how unfair our immigration system is?
