> Trump famously used the same institutions to detain and torture minors indefinitely

Are you talking about the "cages" that were built under Obama and continued under every president thereafter, including Biden? Or what?

I'm talking about the policy of deporting the parents and keeping children detained waiting for the result of "refugee" requests that were never even filled. And no, Biden stopped that really quickly.

The "cages" are the same whether you keep people there for a couple of days waiting for a flight back into their country or for months for no good reason.
