The incoming Harvard freshman met an immigration agent on arrival in Boston.
She searched his computer & said his friends had posted political things.
He said that he hadn't—not one political post on his timeline.
She canceled his visa. And deported him. https://t.co/Gvi3jRqE6n pic.twitter.com/IaNOczmSDy

* 711 out of 2,551 children 5 to 17,
and they consider themselves done?

How can this be humane or acceptable? They must reunite ALL families and these families should have a chance at asylum!
