A protest outside a Texas immigration detention centre erupts into chaos as state police deploy riot gear and pepper spray against demonstrators chanting “children are not criminals.” Inside the Dilley facility, Democratic Congressman Joaquin Castro inspects conditions and visits five-year-old Liam Ramos, detained with his father after being picked up in Minnesota. Castro describes the child as lethargic, depressed, and asking about school, family, and his backpack — calling the case emblematic of the “inhumanity” of the U.S. immigration detention system. As tensions rise nationwide, newly revealed ICE internal guidance orders officers not to engage with protesters following two fatal shootings during immigration operations in Minnesota. The Trump administration says it is attempting to de-escalate amid mounting public outrage, legal challenges, and contradicting video evidence.
