For the record to note, late, what both Majikthise and TPMmuckraker point out, “According to DHS’ own tally, only 65 of the 1,282 arrests were for criminal violations, including identity-theft related crimes.” And read Christy Hardin Smith’s take on the situation here; and, some photos and stories/interviews re: the separation of parents and children in the raids at the Des Moines Register.
