“[One] of the officers asked me, ‘In Guatemala, do they celebrate mother’s day?’ When I said yes, he said ‘Then Happy Mother’s Day’ because the next Sunday was Mother’s Day. I lowered my head so that my daughter would not see the tears forming in my eyes.” pic.twitter.com/3kNJ4Sc6kY

“The officers said that the children would not return. One said ‘it is the price to pay for crossing the border. We do this so that when you return to your countries you do not return, and so you tell your relatives not to come because we will take your children from you.’” pic.twitter.com/TiGIuPoMnv

Every one of those ICE officers should be fired. Immediately. It's unprofessional & they're unfit for service.
