https://threadreaderapp.com/thread/1009142097109274625.htmlHere is a letter my client Levis just wrote to her 6 yr old son Samir, whom she has not seen or comm with in over 2 weeks. They told her he was being taken for a bath & would be brought right back. He is a gentle boy and very attached to his mother. She is terrified. #Basta
In the thread that follows, I will post a translation of my client Leviss letter. It is one story among thousands.
To: Samir The love of my life.
From: your mom. The love of your life.
Hello my love how are you? I hope you are doing well, just want to tell you that everything is ok, I am sorry my son about everything that is going on, this separation hurts my soul
but I want you to know that I am not abandoning you, son your mom is here and I think about you a lot, when I wake up the first thing I think about are your eyes and I also feel your hugs every morning and I feel your kisses my son
I miss you deeply Samir, I want you to know that very soon we will be together again and I will hug you. I love you!!! I want to tell you face to face that I am proud of you, you are my purpose
do not worry my son, I am doing well I know you are suffering because you love me. Very soon we will be singing the song we sing and we will be together praying to God

May change their minds as to him being a liability. That being said. I want him to stay as long as possible so he does the most damage amd we dont have Pence take his place.

no matter what.
Some of these people were Republicans when they were younger, then they became centrists -- and now they say the only option is to vote for ANY Democrat.
