Three U.S. Citizen Children, Including 4-Year-Old Battling 4th Stage Cancer, Deported to Honduras

[Uncle Joe]

The Trump administration has deported three U.S. citizen children to Honduras: a 4-year-old who was actively receiving treatment for a rare form of stage 4 cancer, his 7-year-old sister, and a 2-year-old girl who was separated from her father and expelled with her undocumented pregnant mother. The mothers were coerced into taking their U.S. citizen children and prohibited from communicating with other family members or their lawyers until they arrived in Honduras. Attorney Gracie Willis, who is representing the 2-year-old girl, says the deportation of a U.S. citizen not given "any way to contest that or express the option to stay in the United States" is unprecedented.

1. The wanton cruelty is sickening.

Btw how many undocumented Poles did Trump hire to do the demolition work
when he was building Trump Tower? Or how many Costa Ricans were used in
the construction of his New Jersey Golf Course?

2. Remember when the Right Wing went crazy because Clinton deported Elian Gonzalez?

They went all in supporting the child who came to our shores seeking freedom, even though he was snuck into the country illegally.

Now they want to round'em all up and send them to slave labor camps in Central America.
