Media keeps running this video non-stop since the bust at ICE raids in Mississippi earlier this week.

Politicians like Elizabeth Warren have even weighed in:
Watching this little girl cry out for her father is a punch in the gut. The Trump administration’s cruelty knows no end.
I want to be very clear here: Families belong together. And when I am president, they will be. https://t.co/43fXbTt6uG

So she’s apparently never going to have anyone arrested/locked up or remove any kids being abused.
Naturally, it turns out that the propaganda story the media was pushing wasn’t quite true.
Via Daily Caller:
United States Attorney for the Southern District of Mississippi Michael Hurst, who helped coordinate the arrest of 680 alleged illegal immigrants in the largest workplace sting in over a decade, defended the rule of law and pushed back against claims that children were left in the lurch.
Appearing with guest-host Brian Kilmeade on Thursday night’s edition of “Tucker Carlson Tonight,” Hurst said agents had specifically asked detainees if they had a small child at home. Those who did were allowed to call someone to help, while single parents and one of two parents were given “humanitarian” release.
