as an American, I know what's going on but I don't consume mainstream media.
I wish I could do something right now to resolve this, but I myself (who has lived here my entire life over 50 years) could risk deportation to an El Salvadorian prison.
I am the primary breadwinner for my family, who has already been targeted due to autism and ADHD.
I am afraid to do anything that could jeopardize them and their safety.
I know I am not alone, and that we are being cornered, but what else are we supposed to do?
