Looks like Immigration and Customs Enforcement is in the torture of children business, Popok said. At the core of bad and inhumane policy by the Trump administration, there are contractors and vendors that we need to call out, he added. There are people making a profit, exploiting the suffering of other human beings.How many heartbreaking scenes do we have to see about ICE and people working for ICE taking preschoolers and 5-year-olds away from their families, or using them as props, as human shields to get the parent to open the door without a warrant to take them away? Popok added. Where does it end?
