Mother of Karoline Leavitt's Nephew ARRESTED BY ICE

This administration's cruelty somehow keeps astounding me.

ICE agents arrested a woman with a connection to White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt — just days before Thanksgiving.

Bruna Ferreira, who has an 11-year-old son with Karoline’s brother, Michael Leavitt, was arrested by ICE on November 12. Bruna is a DACA recipient and is in the process of obtaining legal residency, but was arrested abruptly while on her way to pick her son up from school — despite the fact that Trump’s attempts to end DACA were all blocked by the Supreme Court.

In a statement, the Department of Homeland Security said she had a previous arrest for battery, but her attorney disputed that, saying Bruna has no criminal record and charged the DHS with showing proof.

Karoline Leavitt’s cruelty in supporting the administration ripping away her nephew’s mother is unfathomable, but I guess I should’ve expected it given that she’s been defending the Trump admin’s destruction of families all over the country.

The hypocrisy of these people and their supporters never fails to astound me. I hope that Bruna is released soon — no one deserves to be detained so forcefully and baselessly.
