They should pick up the dad too so they can be reunited.

This is a no win. If they left the child here against the mother's wishes, they would be called cruel for separating the family. Instead media is running with the headline that a US citizen was deported.

The child can return. Anyone claiming she was deported and insinuates she can't come back is a liar.

Against the fathers wishes and with no due process. See the problem?


Read the complaint. The mother and sister had deportation orders. The father is in the country illegally as well. That’s why he did not take custody of the citizen child, as he was told he would be detained and deported as well. Regardless, the child has every ability to return to the country. The parents only have to arrange transportation for her to return. It was the mother who wrote that she wished for her daughter to return to Honduras with her.


I read the complaint. Father wanted child to be taken by guardian Trisha Mack. ICE wouldn’t allow it, they were using the child to get father to present himself and be deported.

“Trump administration officials said in court that the mother told ICE officials that she wished to take V.M.L. with her to Honduras. The filing included a handwritten note in Spanish they claimed was written by the mother and confirmed her intent. But the judge said he had hoped to verify that information.”


I think ICE feels like they can’t trust the judiciary after one judge was just arrested for obstructing a legal arrest.

Works both ways.

The man claiming to be dad was asked to present himself to ICE but refused to do so.

Nonsense. This was a girl who went with her mother and was her mother’s right. The child has every right to re enter the US. A citizen can’t be deported and wasn’t.

Are Dems for family separation now?

Reuters: “prosecutors said Villela, who has legal custody, told ICE that she wanted to retain custody of the girl and have her go with her to Honduras.”

They won't stop at 2 year olds. Judges, members of congress, "agitators" - everyone is fair game to be "disappeared" by this administration.


It is, in fact, deplorable.

Judge with many pro-Trump rulings has condemned Trump/ICE
for violating the Constitution in deporting a 2-year-old US ctizen, refusing her access to a lawyer, and refusing to allow her to appear in Court as summoned.
