For generations, if you came on a visa and applied for asylum, you would generally not be arrested even if your visa expired during the process. That’s over now. They’re arresting everyone, even people who have done legitimately nothing wrong. What a terrible, awful, inhumane, cruel policy.

🤨 Avelo really doesn't like us noticing what they're doing to migrants. First, they painted their ICE planes all-white to protect their brand. Now, their planes are changing how they park at Boeing Field to obstruct cameras that were set up specifically to observe their activities. SHAME!
