Pediatric Brain Cancer Patient Deported

This is monstrous. (And Happy Monday?)

A 9-year-old girl with brain cancer, ripped from her treatment and thrown out of the country like garbage because her parents were undocumented. This wasn’t an accident. This wasn’t an unfortunate bureaucratic mishap.

This was a deliberate act of cruelty carried out by a government that chose to enforce law over basic human decency.

A sick child—actively receiving care—was deemed unworthy of compassion, her life reduced to a piece of paperwork.

And for what? To prove some warped point about immigration? To flex authority over the most vulnerable?

This is inhumane, shameful, and beneath even the lowest expectations of what America is supposed to stand for. What kind of country does this? Well, now mine, apparently. 🤦🏻‍♂️

What kind of people let this happen and sleep at night? If this is who we are now, we are broken beyond repair. There is no justification, no excuse, no “but the law” argument that makes this anything other than barbaric.

If you can look at this and not feel rage, you are part of the problem.
