But gun owners are the problem. Every liberal that supports illegal immigration, open borders, opposing the wall and detention, sanctuary cities, abolishing ICE and amnesty are simply cheering crimes like this on. Currently, a higher percentage of non-citizens are arrested than citizens. The problem is getting out of hand, thanks to Democrats, and yet they want the public to disarm themselves.

LIBERALS are the existential threat to the population and the nation.

Some illegal immigrants are bad people. Which, I suppose, was thought to be sufficient justification for the following. The letter has been received by the parents of undocumented children, whose deportation was deferred because of serious medical conditions for which life-saving treatment is unavailable in their country of origin:

Here’s your kid’s death warrant. Have a nice day.

Expect some rapid damage control and furious back-pedaling, as soon as this b.s. gets enough media attention. Some things are just beyond the pale, even to immigration hardliners. Maybe we should give them the benefit of the doubt and assume some bureaucratic knucklehead didn’t think things through.

@Greg: That really sucks, its to bad so many refused to comply with our laws that a few get really truly screwed. I hope the case gets reviewed and it goes in their favor.
I also remember a young Cuban child rescued by fishermen According to Elian’s cousin, Marisleysis Gonzalez, federal agents held her at gun point while one screamed, “Give me the f – – – ing boy or we’ll shoot you.” An NBC cameraman said federal gunmen kicked him in the stomach, hit his sound man with a rifle butt and yelled, “Don’t move or we’ll shoot.”

A Border Patrol agent in a helmet and goggles soon pointed his assault rifle at Elian and the man who shielded him in his arms — Donato Dalrymple, one of the fishermen who rescued him from the Atlantic Ocean last Thanksgiving. As Elian hollered, “Help me! Help me!”, he was whisked away in a white van driven by yet another federale whose face was hidden in a ski mask. Onlookers, meanwhile, were kept at bay with pepper spray.

@Greg:

Some illegal immigrants are bad people.

Oh. My. God. Did you just make such an absolutely RACIST statement, just like Trump’s racist statement about illegal immigrants? I think I am going to throw up, that is SO racist!!!

The letter has been received by the parents of undocumented children, whose deportation was deferred because of serious medical conditions for which life-saving treatment is unavailable in their country of origin:

They are here illegally. Coming here illegally needs to STOP being rewarded. There are sick and dying children all over the world. The United States cannot afford to heal them all.

Obviously, they weren’t here for sanctuary, were they? They were here for free medical care. Having a sick child is a terrible thing, but it is not the responsibility of the United States to treat every one. Why aren’t they going to Cuba or Venezuela, where you liberals celebrate their wonderful socialized health care?

What is your treatment plan for the young girls raped by illegal immigrants? What is your sympathetic response to parents of children killed by illegal immigrants? Simply put, you don’t give a SHIT about them; they are acceptable collateral damage to an agenda of flooding the nation with potential Democrat voters. How can you continue to support the party and people that ignore, condone, support and encourage these tragedies to continue to happen?

They are here illegally. Coming here illegally needs to STOP being rewarded. There are sick and dying children all over the world. The United States cannot afford to heal them all.

In some such cases, we would stop rewarding a mother who was desperate to save the life of her child by effectuating a deportation that is a virtual death warrant.

If a mother and her child have somehow made it onto the lifeboat, I don’t believe most Americans would vote to throw them back into the sea. I don’t believe most Trump supporters would be OK with such an outcome.

Simply put, you don’t give a SHIT about them; they are acceptable collateral damage to an agenda of flooding the nation with potential Democrat voters.

Are you directly quoting a Donald Trump tweet?

@Greg:

Here’s your kid’s death warrant. Have a nice day.

Much against my better judgment, I opened your link.

No where in any of the three letters does it mention a child. So on what basis are you claiming “The letter has been received by the parents of undocumented children, whose deportation was deferred because of serious medical conditions for which life-saving treatment is unavailable in their country of origin:”?

Are you basing your opinion on some attorney that is getting rich on defending illegals? (maybe you think all these [il]legals are represented by attorneys who work pro bono) From your statement, it is the “children” who are undocumented. How can documented parents have undocumented children?

In some such cases, we would stop rewarding a mother who was desperate to save the lives of their child by effectuating a deportation that is a virtual death warrant

How do you know that is the case in your link?.

If a mother and her child have somehow made it onto the lifeboat, I don’t believe most Americans would vote to throw them back into the sea. I don’t believe most Trump supporters would be OK with such an outcome.

Well, obviously, Clinton supporters were fine with shoving a gun into the face of a child who’s mother died while he was picked up from the [life]boat. Elian Gonzales did nothing to be sent back to Cuba when he was protected by the “wet foot, dry foot” rule only to have it violated by Clinton and Janet Reno even after a court ruled his uncle had custody.

What nationality was this supposed to be? Could the parents not apply to enter the U.S. for medical treatment not available in their native country? Could they not appeal to Doctors Without Borders for treatment? Somehow, your claim of “serious medical conditions for which life-saving treatment is unavailable in their country of origin” rings hollow.

On the basis of the actual situations of several parents who have received such letters:

Undocumented immigrants with serious illnesses had a lifeline. Now it may be gone.

Can the Trump administration sink any lower than threatening to deport sick kids?

As I mentioned earlier, maybe we should give them the benefit of the doubt and assume some bureaucratic knucklehead didn’t think things through. However this happened it needs to be corrected, otherwise we’ll need to drop any pretense of being a nation of compassionate people.

@Greg:

Applying to enter the country legally is always an option. However, coming here illegally carries so many liberal-provided perks that many don’t even bother.

I don’t know if you are aware of this, but other countries have health care, too. In fact, you liberals regularly tout them as superior to our own. It may also come as a surprise to you, but in places on earth other than the southern United States, whenever someone gets sick, they do not always die. You attempt at heartstring-tugging logic fails totally.

Remember Sarah Murnaghan? Obama and Sebilius signed HER death warrant and she was a US citizen and with parents capable of financially supporting her own treatment. Yet because of socialized medicine, they and you were more than willing to let her die. Suddenly you care about children needing health care? Give me a break. You only care about defending the decadent liberal ideology.

@Greg:

As I mentioned earlier, maybe we should give them the benefit of the doubt and assume some bureaucratic knucklehead didn’t think things through.

Why should we? First, they violated the laws of the U.S. showing nothing but disrespect for the U.S. Then, this:

“Portillo, the Orlando-based immigration attorney, said she was given no indication by federal authorities that the program was ending. Then a couple of weeks ago three requests for deferred action for medical reasons involving her clients were denied at the same time.

Before the change, the program was an enormous help for the parents of American-citizen children who had serious medical conditions, allowing them to apply for work authorization and a driver’s license, Portillo said.

“For most of my clients, that’s what they wanted: being able to drive back and forth from the doctor and not fear being stopped because they didn’t have a valid driver’s license,” she said.”

Read more here: https://www.bradenton.com/news/politics-government/article234426937.html#storylink=cpy

So not only do these criminals think they have the right to enter the U.S. without permission (try that in Brazil) but also to be able to drive without a driver’s license. And of course, you can bet they can’t pay for the medical services they are seeking. Yet, when I mention the heinous practice of abortion that you left wingers support, I get asked “but what about the poor children of America? Do you help them?”

Tell me, Greggie Goebbels, how much do you think those illegals paid the coyotes to bring them across the border? Would that money have been better spent applying to the U.S. Consulate in their home nations for entry on a humanitarian basis? Do you really think their lawyer is working pro bono?

So a woman drags her child with “lower bowel syndrome” all the way from Brazil paying a coyote to put both her, and her child, at risk in dangerous terrains and we are supposed to “give her the benefit of the doubt?” I don’t think so. Liars are liars. So, two things; Public healthcare is provided to all Brazilian permanent residents and foreigners in Brazilian territory through the National Healthcare System, known as the Unified Health System. The SUS is universal and free and lower bowel syndrome (Irritable Bowel Syndrome) is not a terminal disease.

Sorry, I don’t believe their sob stories. I do believe the attorney is making a name for herself as she takes U.S. dollars from her clients.

@retire05, #9:

Why should we?

That would normally be my position, but some of the effects of this particular policy are so draconian that I can’t believe they’re thought through and fully intentional.

You seem to be confused concerning to whom I suggested we might want to give the benefit of the doubt, up in post #2.

Then again, doubling down on mean spirited policies toward people you’ve attempted to demonize may be the new norm.

From The Hill, August 28, 2019 – Trump officials say children of some service members overseas will not get automatic citizenship

@Greg: Trump officials say children of some service members overseas will not get automatic citizenship.
The clickbait misleading headline, after reading it I find I want my 3 minutes of time back.
Better luck next time.

@Greg:

That would normally be my position, but some of the effects of this particular policy are so draconian that I can’t believe they’re thought through and fully intentional.

You know what is draconian, Greggie Goebbles? The Montgomery County, Maryland practice of letting illegals roam their streets to the harm of American citizens being a “sanctuary” county. So while you fret over a Brazilian child that has easily treated irritable bowel syndrome, and could be treated in Brazil under its free health care system, not one word from you about the two illegals that raped an 11 year old girl, one of them raping her repeatedly. No, instead, you plead for an illegal that is trying to abuse our nation.

You’re an idiot. And a disgrace.

@retirer05, #13:

You’re an idiot. And a disgrace.

I don’t support idiotic and disgraceful actions by the narcissistic rage-monkey in the White House. I don’t try to justify deporting seriously ill children to countries where they won’t have access to life-saving medical care by pointing at rapists in another state who have nothing whatsoever to do with them.

@Greg: I don’t know if you know this or not, but this topic is in no way, form or fashion about Trump. It is about YOU and what YOU support. YOU support Democrats. YOU support open borders. YOU support sanctuary cities. YOU support cities that release criminal illegal immigrants before ICE can get ahold of them. YOU support rejecting funds for CBP. YOU support vilifying the CBP trying to operate with insufficient funds. YOU support policies that make the illegal immigrant problem worse.

YOU aided and abetted these rapes. Trump is on the absolute other and RIGHT side of the issue, the law and morality.

@Greg:

I don’t support idiotic and disgraceful actions by the narcissistic rage-monkey in the White House.

This thread is not about the President. It’s about the outrage that is illegal immigration and sanctuary cities/counties/states, and how those policies put Americans in harm’s way. All done by liberal lefties who think they are so much better than the rest of us. It is about the harm done to AMERICANS all so the Democrats can register (illegally) a bunch of new Democrat voters.

I don’t try to justify deporting seriously ill children to countries where they won’t have access to life-saving medical care by pointing at rapists in another state who have nothing whatsoever to do with them.

And what prevented the parents of those children from coming to the U.S. for health care THE LEGAL WAY? Nothing. Thousands of people from all nations, Canada, the UK, France, Germany, and yes, Central and South America, come to the U.S. LEGALLY every year for medical care. They don’t pay a coyote to sneak them in and they don’t think they have a right to drive without a driver’s license.

You, and others like you who support illegal immigration, are just as guilty of the rape of that 11 year old as are the illegals who committed that crime. You facilitated it.

YOU aided and abetted these rapes. Trump is on the absolute other and RIGHT side of the issue, the law and morality.

You, and others like you who support illegal immigration, are just as guilty of the rape of that 11 year old as are the illegals who committed that crime. You facilitated it.

The only guilty parties are the specific individuals who committed the crimes. The kid who could die if he’s summarily deported and loses his access to treatment for cystic fibrosis is not guilty of rape, nor are your fellow citizens who would temper our nation’s response to illegal immigration with a greater degree of human compassion than the Trump administration demonstrates.

That Donald Trump promotes this sort of irrational assigning of blame to widen national divisions and control his base is one of the reasons for my growing contempt of the man. In my view, he’s eating away at the soul of the nation and eroding its higher values without giving that matter a second thought, because he is guided by none of them. He’s a self-seeking, amoral opportunist, plain and simple, who is unworthy of the office he holds. Rather than trying to rise to the level of the nation’s higher expectations and principles he is pulling them all down to his own, and facilitating those who would do the same in the process.

@Greg:

The only guilty parties are the specific individuals who committed the crimes.

Oh, no, no, no, no, no, no. That is NOT how it works. Every gun owner is guilty when there is a shooting. Trump is a guilty con-conspirator for every racist act committed anywhere. Trump supporters are racists for supporting Trump. Let’s play by YOUR rules, shall we?

YOU support those who lure millions of illegal immigrants to our border, flooding and overwhelming facilities and resources. YOU support those whose only acceptable response is to release the illegal immigrants rather than subject them to the indignity of being detained in well-accommodated facilities, as long as the resources hold out. YOU support sanctuary cities which protect criminal illegal immigrants from deportation. YOU support those who want to eliminate ICE and deportations. These are the policies and the agenda of YOUR party and the politicians YOU defend and support. So, it’s on YOU, Scooter.

Want absolution? Stop supporting the Democrat agenda. Support those who want to defend our borders and enforce immigration law. Stop pretending some pretend humanitarian concern prevents the deportation of illegal immigrants. Give up on the dream of using tens of millions of illegal immigrants as a voting bloc, along with cheap labor and exploitable human fodder.

Trump is not promoting holding you who support these dangers to society accountable; it is justice.

Oh, no, no, no, no, no, no. That is NOT how it works. Every gun owner is guilty when there is a shooting. Trump is a guilty con-conspirator for every racist act committed anywhere. Trump supporters are racists for supporting Trump. Let’s play by YOUR rules, shall we?

If the right were playing by the rules, Donald Trump’s tax returns would have been turned over to the House Ways and Means Committee for oversight review as required by law, and we’d be past the point of any speculation on a wide variety of well-founded suspicions. Witnesses called in the course of congressional investigations would have responded to subpoenas as required by law, rather than following the orders of Donald Trump and breaking the law.

His damn “rules” allow for entirely routine lies on a daily basis, and unrestrained defamation and slander of anyone who crosses him that’s not only thrown out without evidence, but often contrary to established facts.

@Greg: Show me the rule that mandates Trump release his taxes? Violating the 4th Amendment is not a rule.

Trying to dodge the subject merely confirms you accept the guilt of the thousands of US citizens killed, raped and harmed by illegal immigrants, all under the protective umbrella of Democrats and their open borders/sanctuary agenda.

@Deplorable Me, #20:

Show me the rule that mandates Trump release his taxes? Violating the 4th Amendment is not a rule.

The law in question has been posted here multiple times already. Refer to section 6103(f) if you have forgotten what it says.

Trump has broken his oath of office and misused his powers of office by ordering his subordinates to break that law in order to evade lawful congressional oversight. This will all likely blow up in early or mid-2020. He’ll reduce the GOP and conservative movement to ruins rather than let them survive his own personal downfall. This is unfortunate, because the nation needs political parties representing both perspectives to maintain balance.

@Greg:

If the right were playing by the rules, Donald Trump’s tax returns would have been turned over to the House Ways and Means Committee

A subject that has absolutely nothing to do with illegal immigration. NOTHING.

Witnesses called in the course of congressional investigations would have responded to subpoenas as required by law, rather than following the orders of Donald Trump and breaking the law.

Do you mean like how witnesses on both the Fast and Furious scandal and the IRS scandal refused to honor those subpoenas while they followed the orders of Barack Hussein Obama? Is that what you mean? And has what, exactly, to do with the illegal immigration supported by your Party?

People like you, who support the open-borders Democrats, are just as responsible for that 11 year old girl’s rapes as the rapists themselves as you constantly back those open borders Democrats as they support violation of our laws of sovereignty. Why don’t you try sneaking into an nation south of our southern borders and report back to us how the conditions are in a Central/South American jail?

You have no comeback, Greggie Goebbels, so consequently you pivot back to your standard “but, but……………………………..Trump.” Pathetic. And lame. But then

you’re an idiot.

@Greg: The law is not in question; the application is. A person’s privacy cannot be violated without proper cause and “We have exhausted all other attempts to get Trump our of office” is not proper cause.

End of debate.

And you continue to excuse the rape of innocent young girls by illegal immigrants. Nice.

@Deplorable Me, #23:

The proper cause is the possibility that Trump has been seriously compromised by Russian-sourced funds, laundered and funneled into his various cash-strapped projects in the form of Deutsche Bank loans that simply make no financial sense—given that he had already defaulted on previous loans, had enormously inflated the value of his assets to get them, and no other financial institution would touch him with a ten-foot barge pole. Add the foregoing to his inexplicable deference to Vladimir Putin, and you’ve got a giant question mark that no national security expert in his right mind would ignore.

That his daughter and son-in-law are still conducting international business after being given top secret security clearances over the objections of those charged with doing background checks is totally off the charts.

In any case, there’s no requirement in the law for the House Ways and Means Committee to provide “proper cause” for their request in the first place. It’s a purposely created oversight power, and was written so that it could not be arbitrarily ignored or blocked. The IRS is required by law to provide the returns for confidential review based on nothing more than a named committee’s request to see them.

And you continue to excuse the rape of innocent young girls by illegal immigrants. Nice.

I don’t excuse such a thing by anybody. It doesn’t matter if the perpetrator is an illegal alien or some drunken frat-boy son of wealth and privilege.

@Greg: Didn’t Lying Larry satisfy that issue for you? If there was any basis in fact to your fantasies perhaps just a HINT of some evidence might have been turned up after three years of three investigations and Obama’s illegal surveillance. None has. NONE. However, Comey has been PROVEN to have been a seditious scumbag, and he won’t be the last to be finally exposed as such. Everything based on lies. No one on the left is interested in the truth.

Keep swinging for the fences and striking out. Maybe this just ain’t your game.

@Greg:

The proper cause is the possibility that Trump has been seriously compromised by Russian-sourced funds,

And the proof of that lies where? In Jerry Nadler’s head? Peter Schiff said he had indisputable proof that Trump “colluded” with the Russians? What happened to that? Why doesn’t Shiff-for-brains reveal his proof?

In any case, there’s no requirement in the law for the House Ways and Means Committee to provide “proper cause for their request in the first place. It’s a purposely created oversight power, and was written so that it could not be arbitrarily ignored or blocked.

It’s an IRS rule that, through your own admittance, has never been challenged as legal. It should have been when Obama reported tens of thousands of $$ in foreign income (the source not listed on his tax returns forms that were made public and which not the fully itemized forms). But it was not. Trump, as any American, has the right to challenge that rule and will. You seem to conflate an agency rule with a law.

But then, you are just diverting from an argument you have clearly lost.

You’re an idiot.

At some point in the next few months, Trump will have exhausted all of his delaying tactics.

Meanwhile, Putin will continue receiving inexplicable favors from the man in the Oval Office. Wasn’t Donnie Boy just bashing Obama a couple of days ago for letting the Russians take part of Ukraine?

August 29, 2019 – Trump is one big headache for Ukraine

@retire05:

And the proof of that lies where? In Jerry Nadler’s head?

Quite possibly proof is in Donald Trump’s tax returns. The reasons for wondering are right in front of your face. Let’s have Congress look and see, since there’s an oversight law that was written specifically to allow that, just to keep elected officials honest. Hey, don’t you want to prove everyone you hate wrong?

You’re an idiot.

You need some new material. If you think Donald Trump is honest, who’s the real idiot? You most likely realize that he probably isn’t. That might explain some of your anger.

@Greg:

At some point in the next few months, Trump will have exhausted all of his delaying tactics.

All Trump has to do is follow Obama’s delaying tactics. All the documents from Fast and Furious, although subpoenaed, were never released to Congress. Don’t remember you complaining about that.

Meanwhile, Putin will continue receiving inexplicable favors from the man in the Oval Office

OMG, did Trump send a message to Putin that after he is re-elected he will be able to be more flexible? When did he say that?

Quite possibly proof is in Donald Trump’s tax returns. The reasons for wondering are right in front of your face. Let’s have Congress look and see, since there’s an oversight law that was written specifically to allow that, just to keep elected officials honest.

Ummm, how long has that rule (a rule in not a law, you dimwit) been in effect? Why, when we had the most crooked president in the history of our nation, Bill Clinton, didn’t Congress use that rule? Because Democrats don’t care if their own are crooked.

You need some new material.

Just stating the facts, Greggie Goebbels. Don’t you like facts? Facts that you [conveniently] refuse to address because all you do is parrot the leftwing press. I do believe an original idea has never entered your sub-standard sized brain.

@Greg:

Trump is one big headache for Ukraine

Are there many illegal aleins from the Ukraine raping women here in the states?

@retire05, #29:

Ummm, how long has that rule (a rule in not a law, you dimwit) been in effect?

It’s neither a rule nor a regulation. 6103(f) is a statute that’s part of the U.S. Code, which is the compilation of all U.S. Federal laws currently in effect. It is a law, and it is being openly defied to protect the butt of the same man who gave the order to defy it.

I certainly understand why you think only lawyers are capable of understanding such things. You don’t seem to have a clue about them yourself. However that may be, forcefully asserted bullshit is still bullshit. Trump is full of it.

August 29, 2019 – Sick Migrants Undergoing Lifesaving Care Can Now Be Deported

LOS ANGELES — Maria Isabel Bueso was 7 years old when she came to the United States from Guatemala at the invitation of doctors who were conducting a clinical trial for the treatment of her rare, disfiguring genetic disease. The trial was short on participants, and thanks to her enrollment, it eventually led the Food and Drug Administration to approve a medication for the condition that has increased survival by more than a decade.

Now 24, Ms. Bueso, who had been told she likely would not live past adolescence, has participated in several medical studies. She has won awards for her advocacy on behalf of people with rare diseases, appearing before lawmakers in Washington and in Sacramento. Over the years, her parents have paid for the treatment that keeps her alive with private medical insurance.

But last week, Ms. Bueso received a letter from the United States government that told her she would face deportation if she did not leave the country within 33 days, an order described by her doctor, lawyer and mother as tantamount to a “death sentence.”

Without any public announcement, the United States Citizenship and Immigration Services eliminated a “deferred action” program this month that had allowed immigrants like Ms. Bueso to avoid deportation while they or their relatives were undergoing lifesaving medical treatment. The agency said that it received 1,000 deferred-action applications related to medical issues each year.

The policy change is the latest in a series of moves by the Trump administration to revoke or modify procedures that have allowed certain immigrants to remain in the United States on humanitarian grounds. In addition to those with serious medical conditions, they included crime victims who have helped law enforcement with investigations and caretakers of sick children or relatives.

“I have been feeling super scared and overwhelmed,” said Ms. Bueso, whose lower body is paralyzed from the disease, an enzyme disorder that inhibits cells from processing sugars. “The treatment that I receive keeps me alive.”

Over the last two years, major changes to immigration policy have been made with little notification given to the federal workers charged with carrying them out, beginning with a travel ban imposed by President Trump in his first weeks in office, and the “zero tolerance” approach that led to family separations last summer.

A spokesman for Citizenship and Immigration Services said requests for deferred action must now be made to Immigration and Customs Enforcement, the agency responsible for removing people from the country.

But an ICE official said that the department had not been notified in advance about the change and questioned the agency’s ability to assume that role.

Bryan Cox, a spokesman for ICE, said in a statement this week that the agency “reviews each case on its own merits and exercises appropriate discretion after reviewing all the facts involved,” as it does for all requests for deferred action.

In letters reviewed by The New York Times, Ms. Bueso, her family and other deferred action applicants were told that requests would be considered only from people who are in the military, and that the authorities would “commence removal proceedings” against those who did not leave the country.

Martin Lawler, Ms. Bueso’s lawyer in San Francisco, said he had been told “there is no appeal, and nobody has told us how to proceed.”

Among others who could be forced to leave the country are children being treated for sickle-cell anemia, cancer and other illnesses.

Representative Ayanna Pressley, a Democrat from Massachusetts, said Wednesday that she planned to call for a congressional oversight hearing on the matter after learning about 20 patients who had received denial letters for renewals.

“What’s so troubling about this, beyond the cruelty of it, is the lack of transparency around the process,” she said. “There was no public comment period, not even a public announcement of this, and so I’m working with my colleagues to get answers and to urge this administration to change course.”

very week for several years, Ms. Bueso has received intravenous infusions of the replacement enzyme that treats her disease, Mucopolysaccharidosis VI, or MPS-6, which causes dwarfism, clouded vision and spinal cord compression, among other abnormalities.

“Stopping this therapy will dramatically shorten her life span,” said Paul Harmatz, the pediatric gastroenterologist who was involved in the original trial and has been treating Ms. Bueso since 2003 at the U.C.S.F. Benioff Children’s Hospital in Oakland, Calif.

The clinical trial had struggled to find patients, and without Ms. Bueso’s participation, Dr. Harmatz said, it would not have taken place. The breakthrough that came from the trial has helped people with the disease live longer than 30 years, he said. Before the drug, they rarely survived past 20.

Across the country, doctors and immigration lawyers scrambled to understand the new policy and its consequences. In Miami, it meant possibly keeping an 8-year-old girl with nerve cancer from participating in an experimental treatment at Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center in New York. Her father, who is in the country illegally, is the only parent available who can travel with her, said Tammy Fox-Isicoff, a Miami immigration lawyer who is representing the family.

Without deferred action, the man cannot legally drive or board an airplane from Miami to New York, where the girl must go each month for the treatment.

In a statement, Boston Medical Center, a research hospital in a city that is a hub for clinical trials and innovative treatments, said it was “deeply concerned” about the new policy and how it would affect its patients who are receiving treatment for “extremely serious medical conditions.”

“We oppose any actions that could prevent people from accessing the health care they need,” the hospital said.

Brent Renison, a lawyer who is representing an Indian woman who could be affected, said deferred action was “meant to allow for some discretion, to recognize cracks in the law that people fall into, and alleviate humanitarian situations and needless suffering.”

It has been 16 years since Ms. Bueso began receiving weekly infusions of the approved drug, Naglazyme. She has built a productive life despite the crippling disease. Last year, she graduated summa cum laude from California State University, East Bay, where she worked with the school to start a scholarship for students with rare diseases.

Her family lives in a middle-class neighborhood in Concord, Calif., in a house her parents bought and renovated to accommodate their daughter’s wheelchair. They did not expect to leave the country, having won permission to stay every time they applied for an extension.

When Mr. Lawler, the family’s lawyer, told them about the government’s decision last week, Ms. Bueso began to shake uncontrollably.

“We were crying with the nurses, doctors, everyone,” her mother, Karla Bueso, said. “Without her treatment, it’s like a death sentence. It has been hard to process.”

Neither the drug nor the medical care that she requires is available in Guatemala. Without the drug, her health is expected to quickly deteriorate. Her breathing could become belabored; she could suffer cardiac arrest and become susceptible to infections.

“We have watched her grow up and mature, and become a responsible young adult, a leader advocating nationally,” Dr. Harmatz said. “If you take it away, it will be a rapid return to her previous state. Death would be the outcome.”

Correction: Aug. 29, 2019
An earlier version of this article misstated the name of a federal agency. It is the Food and Drug Administration, not the Federal Drug Administration.

@Greg: So Greg, one person is representative of unethical action by the government, but 5 rapists do not represent the illegal immigrants? Brilliant logic. Shows how ignorant you are.

@retire05:

Peter Schiff said he had indisputable proof that Trump “colluded” with the Russians? What happened to that? Why doesn’t Shiff-for-brains reveal his proof?

Greg is NEVER going to address that. Neither is any other liberal (believe me, I have tried). The answer would reveal that they were all aware of the massive lie they were all a part of. Ignoring the question reveals they simply don’t care.

All Trump has to do is follow Obama’s delaying tactics. All the documents from Fast and Furious, although subpoenaed, were never released to Congress. Don’t remember you complaining about that.

Democrats draw the line at anyone but them ignoring the law.

@Greg:

At some point in the next few months, Trump will have exhausted all of his delaying tactics.

You mean the Constitution will be revoked?

Meanwhile, Putin will continue receiving inexplicable favors from the man in the Oval Office. Wasn’t Donnie Boy just bashing Obama a couple of days ago for letting the Russians take part of Ukraine?

What favors would that be? Attacking his forces in Syria? Imposing strangling sanctions? Threatening to choke off his one source of trade income? Shutting down government efforts to block election meddling? (Oh, sorry… that was Obama) Removing anti-ballistic missile defenses from eastern Europe without getting any concessions in return? (ooops… Obama again. Sorry)

Quite possibly proof is in Donald Trump’s tax returns.

Proof of WHAT? All you have is a suspicion based on what you hope you can do to Trump, not a shred of evidence (your oracle Lyin’ Larry notwithstanding) and, in THIS country, that is not nearly enough to invade the privacy of an individual. You and your beloved Democrats want a police state; not happening.

Why don’t you insist on the same level of scrutiny of illegal immigrants entering the country (you know… the actual SUBJECT)? Instead of swinging the borders wide open and allowing whatever human traffickers, drug dealers, murderers and rapists can escape into our cities, why don’t you insist the complete vetting of every immigrant allowed in and refusing entry of anyone that might hurt citizens through crime or dependency? Why do you insist that more girls are raped in exchange for illegal immigrants voting for Democrats?

@Greg:

clinical trial for the treatment of her rare, disfiguring genetic disease. The trial was short on participants, and thanks to her enrollment, it eventually led the Food and Drug Administration to approve a medication for the condition that has increased survival by more than a decade.

Big pharma can simply send the drugs to her home country, I dont know if I would want to prolong a death from horrible disease for 10 more years of suffering.
Not a cure, just 10 more years of profits for the drug company.
How many Americans that were perfectly healthy, no big pharma cash cows, have been murdered by illegal Aliens? Hint, thousands more than have this disfiguring deadly and rare condition.

@Greg: What is your point with all of this?

If you go through a legal port of entry, and we grant you asylum, great. All good.

What is your ultimate agenda, cherry-picking these aberrant cases of medical care?

We let in more immigrants than any other country. We grant new citizenship to more people yearly than any other country.

If you come to port of entry, you’re good. If you sneak into the country, your not. That’s your decision and it’s bad. Got a sick kid? OK. We’re here to help…much more than anyone currently on the global stage or any in HISTORY!!

But you cherry-pick things that reduce to “the USA sucks because it didn’t heal the planet overnight”. You’re an assh*le for this.

What about kids in Uganda or Syria or Mongolia, that can’t get medical care because they live in 3rd world countries?

Are Republicans to blame because those kids got sick?

I hope you know how asinine your comments are, and how they are weakly-formed partisan rhetoric.

We give more, do more, and help more than any other country on the planet. That is fact!!!

Tell your employer you can’t defend this without being easily countered and beat in an argument.

Since you lived in Puerto Rico and fought in Vietnam, can you tell me how many kids died yesterday in both those places, due to not having medical care on par with what we have in the USA mainland? (yes, PR is America…I know…don’t try that one, dipsh*t).

Should we suddenly blame Repubs for that? Did you do anything about it?

Guess what happens if I sneak in to Vietnam…

@Nathan Blue:

@Greg: What is your point with all of this?

To avoid discussing the PROBLEM. For instance, notice how totally he ignored my example of Democrat willingness to allow the life of a CITIZEN to expire because they don’t deem her young life worth a transplant that could go to a “productive” citizen. Perhaps they would be happier if the illegal immigrants that died could be considered abortions? Then we could sell their organs!

@Nathan Blue: The county is only 507 sq miles in that small dot on the US map those illegally in the country have raped 5 American females in only 30 days. One doesnt think of MD as an area where there is a high population of illegal Aliens. What about the areas that are along the border? How many more preventable crimes (if we secure our southern border) could be avoided?
You know, if we could save just 1 American child.

@kitt: @Nathan Blue:

The number of illegals who have raped children in Maryland in the past month how now been raised to 6. The last one having raped a 12 year old girl for months and sexually abused a young boy even younger than 12. The illegal’s excuse? It is what he did in his native land.

Greggie Goebbels is worried because of sick illegal children who may not get “life saving” medical treatment. But not one word from him on the children who have had their lives changed forever because they were raped by an illegal.

You see, the left loooooves to play the sympathy card (when they are not playing the race card) and how cruel Conservatives must be because we believe that our American children should be protected and their interests must be served first before we try to heal the world. And of course, Greggie Goebbels did not address one of the children in his bleating heart article who could have gotten medical care for a non life threating medical issue (irritable bowel syndrome) in his home nation of Brazil since Brazil has universal health care (which according to the left would be just wonderful for us). Greggie Goebbels just moved on from that. Instead, he sympathizes with illegals who think they don’t have to follow our laws of sovereignty not should be required to obtain a driver’s license once here illegal because…………………………………………………sob, sob, sob. And of course, when Greggie Goebbels has no cogent argument he just resorts to “but, but, Trump.”

I notice that Greggie Goebbels has not announced his move to some Socialist utopia. Instead, he thinks the U.S. should turn into a Socialist utopia to suit his political agenda. Perhaps he should make friends with a Cuban that escaped Castro’s Socialist utopia. It might be enlightening.

@Nathan Blue, #36:

If you go through a legal port of entry, and we grant you asylum, great. All good.

The young woman who is the subject of Post #32 did enter the country legally. She has remained here with the knowledge of immigration officials. Her deportation has been officially deferred for the specific reason of her unique medical situation, which was why she entered the country to begin with.

What is your ultimate agenda, cherry-picking these aberrant cases of medical care?

It’s not a matter of cherry-picking. What happens to individual human beings is the only thing that defines the morality or immorality of any governmental policy. This isn’t war. There is no acceptable level of “collateral damage”.

Unfortunate things that happen to people in some distant corner of the world is not our fault, provided we haven’t created the circumstances that make it happen.

Those who are here and whose fate is in our hands are an entirely different matter. Knowingly taking action that brings about their death, or knowingly refraining from action that prevents it, is our moral responsibility.

@retire05, #39:

You were wrong about 6103(f) not being an actual law, weren’t you? Would you care to acknowledge that? Or will the fact that this means Trump is brazenly breaking the law to cover his own butt prevent you from ever doing so?

Those are all rhetorical questions, of course. Truth is Trump’s enemy, and consequently your own.

@Greg:

Her deportation has been officially deferred for the specific reason of her unique medical situation, which was why she entered the country to begin with.

So, no fear for her life, no threats, no asylum, just “My kid is sick. Here, take care of her.”? See the problem?

No, you don’t. You just see millions of illegal immigrants voting for Democrats that Americans don’t want.

@Greg:

You were wrong about 6103(f) not being an actual law, weren’t you? Would you care to acknowledge that?

Wow!! The guy who has, in all the years he has been on this site, refused to answer questions is now wanting others to do what he is unwilling to do. Hypocrisy thy name is Greggie Goebbels.

Yes, Greggie Goebbels, a statute is laws. But here is the twist; if that law is never challenged, it is never determined by a court of law that it is Constitutional. But the House has sued the IRS over its refusal to turn over Trump’s tax returns so off to court we will go.

Or will the fact that this means Trump is brazenly breaking the law to cover his own butt prevent you from ever doing so?

Trump is no more breaking the law than Obama did when he refused to turn over the Fast and Furious documents. Or do you think that Obama broke the law when he did that? Let’s see if you answer my questions (which I doubt you will since you are a hypocrite writ large)

It’s not a matter of cherry-picking. What happens to individual human beings is the only thing that defines the morality or immorality of any governmental policy.

Do you think Americans who have committed crimes should be released into the public domain if their arrest would separate them from their children? That is NOT a rhetorical question and requires an answer, a simple yes or no, from you which I doubt you will give.

And your “but, but, but………………..Trump” has exactly what to do with illegals raping children in Montgomery County, Maryland? Go back to Vox, HuffingtonPost and all your other left wing sources where your type of insanity is welcomed. You have become extremely mundane and immensely boring. Most mouthpieces are.

@retire05:

Trump is no more breaking the law than Obama did when he refused to turn over the Fast and Furious documents. Or do you think that Obama broke the law when he did that? Let’s see if you answer my questions (which I doubt you will since you are a hypocrite writ large)

The two are not comparable, though it does show Greg’s and the left’s hypocrisy. Trump is protecting his own private records; records that have nothing to do with his Presidency, despite what sore losers wish to imagine. What Obama and Holder refused to turn over are OUR records. They belong to US. Obama and Holder were running guns to Mexico in OUR name and we deserve to know about it. But, Obama and Holder didn’t think it was our right.

Again, as Greg represents and as all the other leftists we usually see appear confirm by their lack of concern that lives do NOT matter to them; what matters is promoting the liberal agenda which also takes human life for granted unless it serves the Collective.

@retire05, #43:

Yes, Greggie Goebbels, a statute is laws. But here is the twist; if that law is never challenged, it is never determined by a court of law that it is Constitutional.

The only “twist” is in your logic.

A constitutional challenge is not part of the process whereby something becomes a full fledged law. Once passed by Congress and signed by a president that status has been attained. Such a law remains in effect until the law is repealed or is struck down on constitutional grounds by the courts—neither of which has occurred, and neither of which is likely. The Supreme Court is not going to strike down a law when doing so would render congressional oversight power essentially meaningless. Not even the most conservative Justice would do so.

Do you think Americans who have committed crimes should be released into the public domain if their arrest would separate them from their children?

No. Though I fail to see what that has to do with the deportation of children who are dependent on life-saving medical care that they won’t have access to in the countries they came here from.

@Greg: But, to be clear, little girls getting raped by the criminals YOU and YOUR party INSIST are allowed into our country and subsidized is just A-OK with you.

@Greg:

A constitutional challenge is not part of the process whereby something becomes a full fledged law. Once passed by Congress and signed by a president that status has been attained.

You seem to know little of history. Just because a law was passed, in both Houses, and then signed into law by the President, doesn’t guarantee that law’s Constitutionality. A number of laws have been deemed “unconstitutional” after the process you describe. Again, the law you refer to has never been challenged on its Constitutionality. It will be.

Such a law remains in effect until the law is repealed or is struck down on constitutional grounds by the courts—neither of which has occurred, and neither of which is likely.

Are you dense? The Congress has already filed a law suit against the head of the IRS based on the very law you are trying to say is irrevocable.

The Supreme Court is not going to strike down a law when doing so would render congressional oversight power essentially meaningless. Not even the most conservative Justice would do so.

Again, laws have been challenged before and struck down by the courts. Striking down this law, based on Trump’s Fourth Amendment rights, would not impede Congressional oversight on matters that were Constitutional.

Do you think Americans who have committed crimes should be released into the public domain if their arrest would separate them from their children?

No. Though I fail to see what that has to do with the deportation of children who are dependent on life-saving medical care that they won’t have access to in the countries they came here from.

Because laws are not based on what is good, medically, for a “transient” alien or that aliens family.

If a woman breaks into your home to steal from you for the purpose of medical treatment for her child, she will still be arrested and jailed and her child will be taken from her. If found guilty, she will be removed from her child for a court determined amount of time. Breaking a law for personal gain is not an excuse. Again, many people from many nations come to the U.S. for medical treatment for themselves, or one of their children, and they do it legally. We should not be in the business of rewarding bad behavior. Someone from Guatemala can apply for a temporary visa for medical reasons. So all your sob stories about those who have entered our nation illegally for the purpose of abusing our medical system is just that, a sob story. You would jail the American who robbed you for the purpose of medical treatment for their child, but not the illegal who serves a much more sinister purpose for Democrats. Hypocrite thy name is Greggie Goebbels.

“If you want to travel to the U.S. for medical reasons you must apply for a B-2 tourist visa at your local U.S. embassy or consulate. You will need to show that this treatment is medically necessary and unavailable in your home country, as well as prove that that you can afford to pay the often extremely high costs of U.S. healthcare.”

It is clear that you care more about the health of illegals than you do American children. Sad, so sad; but typical of a liberal who tries to benefit the Democratic Party by tugging on heart strings.

You seem to know little of history. Just because a law was passed, in both Houses, and then signed into law by the President, doesn’t guarantee that law’s Constitutionality. A number of laws have been deemed “unconstitutional” after the process you describe. Again, the law you refer to has never been challenged on its Constitutionality. It will be.

Laws are presumed to be fully constitutional and remain in force unless they are actually struck down by the court. Unless and until that happens, someone’s opinion that a law is unconstitutional is nothing more than an opinion.

The law in question has existed since 1924. For 95 years, its constitutionality has never been seriously questioned—most likely because questioning the right of Congress to the assure the honesty of an elected public official’s financial dealings by examining their tax returns is patently stupid.

Apparently some people believe that a president should not only be immune from prosecution, but also immune from examination by Congress to determine if anything improper is going on. That is patently stupid. It would make a president who is already immune from prosecution also immune from effective investigation necessary to undertake impeachment. That bullshit is precisely what Donald Trump is trying to get away with.

@Greg:

Greggie Goebbels, like your mentor, you’re arguing in a circle. Give it up. You’ve lost this one.

And considering all the illegal activities of the Obama administration, why didn’t your Party, the Democrats, exercise oversight on him? Why didn’t they ask where all that “foreign” income he raked in really came from?

BTW, presuming a law is Constitutional, doesn’t make it so. And Democrats care naught for the Constitution, that is clear.

You are a real bonehead, aren’t you?

BREAKING: California Appeals Court Overturns Sole Conviction Against Illegal Alien Who Killed Kate Steinle

This is how much the left actually CARES about public safety. If this was a white man, if this was a gun that went off in a home and killed someone, the left would clamor for a murder charge and gun control. Here, because an illegal immigrant that had been deported 5 times, newly released for DRUG CHARGES in a sanctuary city, steals a gun left poorly secured by a Bureau of Land Management agent, kills a white girl, the left would not convict for murder or manslaughter and now throws out the wrist-slap charge of illegal possession. Absolutely disgusting and hypocritical, but painfully typical.

I pity the people who live in California that are actual Americans. They are left totally defenseless. But, Trump’s taxes…

Innocent lives… Trump’s taxes. Which would a human being be more concerned about?
