TBH, I missed where in the article it said she was here illegally. It's implied, but not explicitly stated.
Like, I'm not eligible for DACA. I couldn't produce an international driver's license. Neither of those mean I'm here illegally.
Sure, the government is in the process of deporting her. They've also deported US citizens.
deportation comes after due process. detainment is inappropriate unless she’s been charged with a crime; reminder: she was not arrested but detained.
and ICE has a documented history of getting it wrong and not giving a fuck. ICE is a terrorist organization.
