U.S. Secretary of Common Sense

Yes

Ladies and gentlemen, this is a Senator who is lying to you ! Here's what actually happened. His father was deported in March 2025 and left him here. For the next year and a half he lived with an uncle who never had legal custody. A school emergency-contact form is not guardianship. Under federal law, a child here with no parent and no legal guardian is an unaccompanied minor. Period. So he went to ORR. ORR is HHS, not ICE, and it places kids in licensed shelters with schooling, medical care and case managers. Not a cell. And the uncle isn't shut out. He can apply to sponsor the boy today. He'll be vetted first, the way every adult should be before the government hands over a child. We learned that the hard way when kids were released to people nobody checked. One school board trustee admits he doesn't know who has legal custody, then says there's "no question" where the child belongs. A councilman blames the end of TPS, but the father was deported while TPS was still in place. @SecMullinDHS @DHSgov @ICEgov @HHSResponse @CoryBooker
