U.S. authorities released a 10-year-old immigrant girl with cerebral palsy who had been detained by border agents after surgery because she is in the U.S. without legal permission.

The American Civil Liberties Union and U.S. Rep. Joaquin Castro said that Rosa Maria Hernandez was returned to her family Friday. Her parents brought her into the U.S. from Mexico in 2007, when she was a toddler, and they live in the Texas border city of Laredo.

KEYWORDS:
Leticia Gonzalez, an attorney for Rosa Maria's family, said the 10-year-old had the mental capacity of a child closer to 4 or 5 years old due to her cerebral palsy.


Sad story but this child will never be a contributing member to American society and will during her lifetime cost the taxpayers millions of dollars.

‘They live in the Texas border city’

Of course they do. Because they have no interest in being Americans, merely in crossing an imaginary line to qualify for freebies.p while remaining de facto Mexicans.

She is an illegal alien. No mention of the legality of her parents, just that a cousin was a US citizen.

The objective is an electorate too stupid to recognize lies by politicians but juuust smart enough to wander their way into fields to pick and factories in order to assemble widgets.

Let the Mexican govt pay her obamacare premiums.
After all Mexico,is an OPEC nation and what OPEC nations do not provide medical care for their citizens?
The Saudis I met here used to brag about their superior govt services
Of course the women came here to drive cars and walk around with the sun and wind on their hair and skin

Mexico is not a member of OPEC. The Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries (OPEC) was founded in Baghdad, Iraq, with the signing of an agreement in September 1960 by five countries namely Islamic Republic of Iran, Iraq, Kuwait, Saudi Arabia and Venezuela. They were to become the Founder Members of the Organization.

These countries were later joined by Qatar (1961), Indonesia (1962), Libya (1962), the United Arab Emirates (1967), Algeria (1969), Nigeria (1971), Ecuador (1973), Gabon (1975), Angola (2007) and Equatorial Guinea (2017).

Just IMAGINE the ‘problems\issues’ that would be *SOLVED* by merely upholding\defending\following our 4th, 5th & 13th A. Rights (won’t get into the A1S8 side of the debate here).

We can’t even get the ‘brain trusts’ (PACs, ‘think-tanks’, (C)\(R) ‘entities’) to pull the same the Left does SO successfully: sue, sue and sue some more until they win.

Hell, the (R) can’t even articulate their own platform w/o showing how 2-faced they govern (tax-cuts being ‘paid for’ vs. ‘smaller govt’ vs. $4T+ budget vs. $20T+ debt...)

This is going to cost the U.S. taxpayers some big bucks. I can see why the Mexicans threw her and her family out. Let the gringos pay for it.

“Knowledge will degenerate into a riot of subjective visions and Justice will be replaced by Pity as the cardinal human virtue, and all fear of retribution will vanish and The New Aristocracy will consist exclusively of hermits, bums and permanent invalids. The Rough Diamond, the Consumptive Whore, the bandit who is good to his mother, the epileptic girl who has a way with animals will be the heroes and heroines of the New Age, when the general, the statesman, and the philosopher have become the butt of every farce and satire.”

From W. H. Auden’s “For the Time Being,” a prophetic poem from a half century-ago (1944).
