MS NOW’s Mika Brzezinski interviews Univision reporter Lydia Terrazas about ICE detention and deportation of pregnant, postpartum, and breastfeeding mothers, focusing on Anna Delgado and a broader pattern of family separation. The segment argues this practice is unusually harsh, often tied to transfers to El Paso-area detention, and inconsistent with DHS guidance except in extreme cases.

The segment centers on Univision reporting about pregnant, postpartum, and breastfeeding women detained in ICE custody under the Trump administration’s immigration crackdown. Mika Brzezinski opens with a broader statistic: more than 145,000 children with U.S. citizenship have experienced the detention of at least one parent, and then asks Lydia Terrazas about Anna Delgado, a mother of two who was deported after moving through several U.S. detention centers. Terrazas says Delgado had lived in the U.S. for over seven years, had two U.S.-citizen children, and had pending immigration cases including an I-130 petition because she was married to a U.S. citizen. Terrazas describes conditions in detention: Delgado was breastfeeding, had difficulty getting a breast pump, eventually obtained one after repeated requests, but it did not work well. …
No actionable market setup is present; the immediate relevance is purely policy/reputational risk around immigration enforcement and family detention.
The likely medium-term path is continued public scrutiny of ICE detention practices if more cases surface, especially where health and child-welfare harms are documented. The view changes if DHS can credibly show these detentions are exceptional rather than routine.
Structurally, the segment argues that enforcement regimes can produce persistent humanitarian and legal liabilities when policy safeguards are not followed in practice. The lasting issue is the gap between stated protections and actual detention behavior.
More than 145,000 U.S.-citizen children have experienced the detention of at least one parent amid the immigration crackdown.

I also had seen you traveling with a husband... trying to get babies to their mothers to be able to breastfeed. I mean, this is horrendous...
Terrazas broadens the discussion to other cases and says this is financially and emotionally hard on families, and that similar patterns have been seen in multiple detained mothers.
Tell me about Evelyn... she is originally from Honduras who also had a similar situation.
