A devout Christian family fled to the U.S. 15 years ago on account of its persecution by the German state. Despite an initially successful asylum claim and setting down roots in Tennessee, the Obama administration saw fit to deracinate the Romeike clan. The Biden administration was set to follow through with the family's expulsion this month but came up against significant opposition.
