The Trump administration has deported thousands of Cubans, many of them older adults, to Mexico, denying them due process and leaving many stranded without access to basic services, Human Rights Watch said in a report released today.

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.
