Julián Curo-Churata, dead in a Trump concentration camp. ICE cited “convictions for driving with expired vehicle registration” and an unspecified judgment against him in favor of the Maryland comptroller (taxes). He "had volunteered to leave the country on his own, but a judge denied the request."

So I edited this story. And I wanna share on thought on language, & telling the truth We talked about: the "government is lying to you" It may sound saucy. It may sound like opinion But it's just true And if something is true then you should just say it, clearly That's just good journalism
