66-page report: ‘Casting Us Aside to Die:’ Cuban and Other Third-Country Nationals Deported from the US to Mexico.
Stranded Without Shelter, Health Care, or Effective Path to Legal Status
The Trump administration has deported over 4,300 Cubans to Mexico, many of whom are older people with serious health conditions who had been living in the United States for years or even decades. Many are left stranded without access to housing and health care. Those who cannot access protection as refugees are trapped in a permanent state of legal limbo.

I wish no harm to anyone, and I hope these people find a way back to the country they love. Still, this is exactly the demographic that voted Republican for decades because they were “tough on immigration.” Did they really think racism stops at Cuba?
I feel bad for any of them that didn’t, or couldn’t, vote for Trump. They are true victims.
I don’t give a fuck about the ones who did.

Vote for the racist that hates you and will put you in an undocumented prison for the rest of your life is kind of on you. His whole campaign was how immigrants where eating dogs and cats. He told you who he was.
I can comfortably say that my life was measurably better before I watched that.
Easily the worst diaspora in the entire country in terms of how toxic and corrosive it is to national politics.
By the numbers, there’s probably more douchebag Irish Americans, but the only diaspora that could come even close to being as harmful would be the Iranian diaspora, specifically the supporters of the Shah who came after the revolution.
So this is wrong, it should not be happening, but I can’t think of a demographic that would I feel less sympathy for.
The cruelty is so ridiculous that it sounds like a Simpsons or South Park gag.
Wah-wah-wauauauauauh….
