Missouri Town's Unexpected Outcry: 'Bring Carol Home'

A Missouri town, known for its strong support of Donald Trump, found itself embroiled in an unexpected controversy. When Carol, a long-time employee at a local Waffle House, was detained by Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE), her coworkers reacted with shock and outrage. "We didn't vote for this," said one employee, expressing the sentiment of many. The incident sparked a grassroots campaign, "Bring Carol Home," with employees creating T-shirts and contacting local media to highlight the situation. While some might argue the concern stemmed from the loss of cheap labor, the campaign revealed a community grappling with complex issues of immigration and the human cost of political decisions. The story underscores the unexpected consequences of political choices and the human element often overlooked in broader political debates.
