"Right now during this huge n’easter there is a plane full of immigrants stuck at the closed Pease AFB. They are headed to Bulgaria! The planes been there for 20 hours no heat no food shackled humans.
Anyone who has connections please get this out. These people will die from the cold. Thank you. I should have mentioned NH."

Okay, I edited it because there HAVE been people following the situation and making calls...the detainee passengers were finally moved inside.

According to Rep. Alice Wade speaking from Pease International Airport about an hour ago, they were moved inside the terminal and were being fed.

Shackled migrants stuck on blizzard-grounded deportation plane for 14 hours; local officials blocked from visiting them

The Omni jet holding deportees, federal agents, and ICE-contracted guards left Harlingen, Tx., Sunday night, likely bound for Asia.

@_L1vY_ They are using the ANG base for flights like this? WTAF. YEsterday wasn't the worst we've seen this year but pretty damn close. Those poor people.
@kc1mur As I understand it, this was an emergency stop. But then just sat there 14 hours. 😩
