Leftist shares news about the brave students of
Houston's Austin
High School, who protested the ICE detention of an
undocumented classmate, just months shy of his graduation. Is it truly the priority of our Federal

Thanks for dropping me in here.
Absolutely, sir. Good, in-depth review. Deserved the top spot.
