The Trump administration is about to expand immigrant family detention by 550%. These are prisons for kids. Literally toddlers behind bars.

Meanwhile,
@sxsw is making it clear they want the Trump administration to know it takes visa issues seriously. These things are connected.pic.twitter.com/wlTk0FwNIo
-
There are 2 immigrant family detention centers close to sxsw: Karnes and Dilly. Will sxsw's actions help the Trump administration fill them?
-
When sxsw says it wants the Trump administration to know it takes visa issues seriously, does it support the detention of Daniela Vargas?
-
Daniela Vargas is the 22-year-old DACA recipient who did a press conference and was then arrested by ICE. She's in detention in Louisiana.
-
Vargas's lawyers say Trump administration will deport her without a hearing because she overstated her visitor's visa waiver.
-
That's what "taking visa issues seriously" means: immediate deportation. This is the line in the sand that sxsw is very consciously drawing.
