(WGN News) 'Terrifying': Family says Evanston-born U.S. citizen detained for hours after returning to O'Hare



This is yet another tale of US CBP and ICE detaining returning US citizens and lying about the whereabouts of that detention (almost a 30 hour detention in the case of Sunny Naqvi, one of the US citizens) to people who have tracked the detained person's phone.

Is this the effect of a quota system? White House incompetence? CBP/ICE incompetence? Homan's incompetence? The flaccid MAGA GOP majority in the US Congress? Trump's boundlessly disinterested stupidity, carelessness, and cruelty to others? Miller's Nazi-esque tendencies? or All of the above?

Iran provides another distraction, from the horrors of the Epstein files and ICE.
