President Donald Trump promised his supporters mass deportations while campaigning for the 2024 Presidential election, and since he was elected, Trump’s administration has been adamant about instilling fear surrounding deportation efforts.

They’ve posted ASMR videos of migrants being handcuffed.

They also posted a Valentine’s Day meme that read: “Roses are red, violets are blue, come here illegally, and we’ll deport you,” with photos of Donald Trump and his “border czar” Tom Homan.

In late January, the Department of Homeland Security Spokesperson issued a statement about their decision to allow ICE agents to enter “sensitive” areas that said, “This action empowers the brave men and women in CBP and ICE to enforce our immigration laws and catch criminal aliens—including murders and rapists—who have illegally come into our country. Criminals will no longer be able to hide in America’s schools and churches to avoid arrest. The Trump Administration will not tie the hands of our brave law enforcement, and instead trusts them to use common sense.”

The Trump administration’s decision to allow ICE agents to enter schools has resulted in significant pushback, and one child seemingly wrote a note to a friend expressing how afraid they were of being taken by ICE while attending school.

The note circulated widely on X (formerly known as Twitter), gaining over 12 million views. Here’s what it says: “If ICE takes me don’t forget about me I will be in El Salvador. You’re my best friend, the brother I never had. I cry every night thinking that they will come for me at school.” The letter also includes drawings of faces with tears falling from the eyes.

In response to this note, people have expressed deep anger towards the Trump administration. One person wrote, “Fuck ICE. Fuck Donald Trump. Fuck every person who is ok with this. I mean this.”

“The cruelty is the point,” another person wrote.

“i’ve spent the past two weeks having breakdowns at my desk just thinking about the fact that my library kids or their parents could be deported at any moment they do not deserve to live in constant fear,” one person who claimed to be a librarian wrote.

Opposingly, one person said, “Heartbreaking that this kid has to do what millions of kids do every year — move to a new place where they have to make new friends? It’s tough, but it’s also normal.”

Some schools in New York and Chicago have taken action in response to the Trump administration, stating they will only allow ICE agents to enter if they have a signed warrant.
