US Deports 4 year old citizen with cancer with undocumented mother

The person deported was the mother who has custody of her child.

The children who are US citizens can return to the country - they aren’t banned from their homeland at all.

We aren’t going to rip children out of their mother’s arms when they are deported without cause. See the uproar a few posts down about the Venezuelan mom who was deported without her kid because she is accused of sex trafficking.


We? Karoline, is that you?

Are you going to go give the child their medication? The best way to help is to demand the government OBEY THE LAW.


The law was obeyed. The mother, an illegal alien, was deported and she chose to take her kid with her. The kid is welcome back at any time.

The mother is in charge of her child’s health and can figure out the medication in Honduras. Honduras is a huge medical tourism destination right now.


For plastic surgery. Not for cancer treatment.

I just don’t see a good solution to any of these cases. Either the child goes with the custodial parent (as is the custodial parent’s right) or the child stays here and is ‘taken away’ from the parent.


Like they are on this thread from the weekend?

So which way do you want it?


On a case by case basis. That's how it should be.

The illegal alien mother was deported and she took her child with her. It truly is as simple as that.

Entering our country illegally and dropping a child does not prevent you from being deported. For far too long, we have had women enter our country illegally, have a kid, and think that gives them the right to remain in the US. It doesn't.

The mother has clearly made a choice to take her kid with her. Just like she made a choice to enter illegally and have a kid.


Correct a US citizen cannot be deported... No US citizen was deported by the US government. A mother was allowed to take her child with her.


Exiled is the term you’re looking for. US citizens can be exiled.


Except the child can come back today if the mother wanted that.


How do they know that if no family members or legal or medical teams were able to even communicate with her while they were in detention?


+1 There was no due process as required. The President of Honduras has probably been told to keep that woman and her child quiet and away from anyone that can help her and her child (lawyers, family, friends). If this was all done properly-why rush through and kick our a 4 year old with cancer?


As far as I'm aware there are phones in Honduras. If the mother's attorneys here could not speak with her now, every media outlet would be running the headline that she has been disappeared.

The 4-year-old has Stage 4 cancer and is without access to medication or contact with doctors, The Washington Post and The Associated Press reported.

While I think framing this as “deportation” of American citizens is misleading, the practice of deporting mothers with American babies who have end stage cancer is sick, sick, sick.

No morals. These people are evil.

More rationalization from MAGA. There is no way in hell that a mother would willingly remove her child with Stage 4 cancer from a supportive health care system. I'm sure ICE made her sign a statement.

She was probably afraid she’d never get to see the child again. I don’t blame her. Absolutely disgusting human garbage cans that thought putting her in this position was okay. God is watching.

More free healthcare for the children of illegal immigrants who can’t pay while American families struggle with outrageous premiums and high deductibles!

The solution isn’t to that isn’t: TAKE HEALTHCARE AWAY FROM DYINF CHIDLREN. The solution is to give healthcare to more children. But you would have to have a moral compass to vote for that. As we know, republicans don’t.

I bet these people take money from the church basket. I’m just beyond disgusted with my fellow Americans today.

Question: is this report relying only on the one source? Seems like more information should be forthcoming.

You don’t help a sick kid by separating them from their mother. Why can’t we use common sense in this country anymore. There are far more people that are eligible to deport who don’t have these kinds of circumstances. Stop being evil.

Again. We do not even know if the report is true.
