At least he knows that people are aware of his situation, and that his family is safe, and now they’ll know he’s alive. Up until that moment, he had no idea if his family even knew what happened to him. That’s at least a small measure of comfort for him and his family.

Also, he’ll be able to go back to prison and tell the rest that they havent been forgotten, and there is a movement in America to end this abomination.

There’s a long ways to go, but this was a MAGA blink.
