"US Immigration and Customs Enforcement (Ice) deported at least 72
people to Haiti on Monday, including a two-month-old baby and 21 other
children, as the Biden administration made clear it would press on with
expulsions of newly-arrived migrants, pending a review of immigration
policy.

The children were deported to Haiti on Monday on two flights chartered
by Ice from Laredo, Texas, to the Haitian capital Port-au-Prince. The
removals sent vulnerable infants back to Haiti as it is being roiled by
major political unrest."

Via Jim Douglas, who wrote "This sure sounds like a description of a
rogue agency choosing to disregard presidential orders."
