"How come every time I see a headline like this it's totally wrong?"

This isn't wrong. It's documented fact. Three U.S. citizen children (ages 2, 4, and 7) were deported by ICE through the New Orleans field office. A federal judge has already scheduled a hearing about this, citing a "strong suspicion" that a 2-year-old U.S. citizen was deported "with no meaningful process."

You're doing exactly what propagandists hope for - spreading doubt about documented human rights abuses without bothering to verify the facts.

"Last time the pitch was some illegal immigrant who was covered in MS-13 tattoos wasn't MS-13."

If you're referring to a case with photoshopped tattoos, you're literally proving my point! You fell for actual fake news and are now using that to dismiss real, verified reporting from multiple sources including federal court records.

"I wouldn't be surprised if in a few days we learn neither of their parents are citizens and they're foreign nationals."

You've already decided what "truth" you want to emerge. Meanwhile, one of these American children has cancer and was deported without their medication despite ICE being notified of their urgent medical needs.

Your cynicism isn't wisdom, it's complicity. You're pre-emptively discrediting reports of government abuses against literal American children because acknowledging them might force you to confront uncomfortable truths about a system you apparently want to defend at all costs.

These aren't anonymous claims! They're documented cases with legal representation, court filings, and federal judicial review already underway. What would it take for you to actually care about American citizens losing their rights?


If these people were all really MS13 then where are the shootouts with ICE? I thought this gang was so ruthless and violent that they had to be declared a terrorist organization?

The guidelines explicitly say HN is not just for that. It’s right at the top.

This shit will impact you eventually if you continue to ignore it. Have fun.

You are posting blatant misinformation. The MS-13 tattoos were painted into an existing picture.

The tattoos don't even matter. The judge said not to deport him and they did it anyway.
