  1. Wow wow wow good brother and sister TNX GOOD Afghanistan good Tnx bro and sister TNX GOOD

  2. I hope he gets freed quickly. It takes heart to work for a foreign government against your own country. What a journey just to live a peaceful life. Praying they reunite as soon as possible.

  3. He should have waited and done it the right way with his brother sponsoring him. It may have taken longer, but now he's put himself into a position were he may never be accepted.

  4. So what my brothers lives in New Jersey I’m in California we’re kept apart by what distance and a ticket

  5. Abbott needs to look into this asap

  6. Biden should use executive privilege to set him FREE!

  7. In America's history, use ppl, Lock them up or worse when they are done with them. Prayers up for him and his family

  8. I blame right-wing fascist.. for using title 42.

  9. Traitors escaping execution seek asylum!

  10. The Biden administration left our own soldiers there to die,why should he expect special treatment.
