"Kids who are US citizens, by birth, are getting hauled to Honduras. Does this Make America Great?"

 Blog amended 5/30/2025 *

* According to the U.S. Constitution Amendment XIV, SECTION 1

"All persons born or naturalized in the United States and subject to the jurisdiction thereof, are citizens of the United States and of the State wherein they reside.  No State shall make or enforce any law which shall abridge the privileges or communities of citizens of the United States; nor shall any State deprive any person of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law; not deny to any person within its jurisdiction the equal protection of the laws."  Added to this Blog Post 5/30/2025

 Not withstanding the Fourth Amendment, Children born in the U.S. became the next victims; an honored longstanding tradition is abruptly axed; are honor and tradition dead?

"The Republicans who chose Donald Trump to be president of the United States must be over-the-moon delighted to see his administration addressing the greatest threat America faces: children who are U.S. citizens.

That’s right. We recently learned a 2-year-old, a 7-year-old and a 4-year-old with Stage 4 cancer – all citizens – were whisked out of the country April 25 and deposited in Honduras with their mothers, who were being deported by Immigration and Customs Enforcement."

 

"That child, along with the other two, wound up in Honduras with the two mothers."

 "Regarding the 2-year-old, who, if I’m sure, posed the biggest threat of them all, a Trump-appointed federal judge wrote that he has a “strong suspicion that the Government just deported a U.S. citizen with no meaningful process.” The child’s father wanted her to remain with him in the United States, but the mother and child were spirited away with a speed that tells you all you need to know about the process.

Now I assume from their lack of outrage that Republican lawmakers are in favor of citizen-toddlers being denied due process. I mean, have these kids really earned it yet?

 I also assume folks out there cheering on Trump in the face of all available evidence and pitiful polling numbers – he has the lowest 100-day approval rating of any president in 80 years – are okey dokey with ICE creating situations like this, described by the ACLU as: A “U.S. citizen child suffering from a rare form of metastatic cancer was deported without medication or the ability to consult with their treating physicians – despite ICE being notified in advance of the child’s urgent medical needs.”

The Washington Post spoke to lawyers for the two families and reported that “both families were taken into custody while attending routine check-ins … in New Orleans as part of the Intensive Supervision Appearance Program, which allows individuals to remain in their communities while undergoing immigration proceedings. Lawyers say the families were taken to Alexandria, Louisiana, a three-hour drive from New Orleans, where they were prevented from communicating with their family members and legal representatives and then put on a flight to Honduras.”  https://www.usatoday.com/story/opinion/columnist/2025/04/28/children-deported-us-citizens-trump-republicans/83274745007/?tbref=hp
