Hi there,

Independent media is more important than ever. Speaking up and telling the truth is becoming increasingly dangerous. Because we are only sponsored by you—not by governments or corporations—we can continue to bring you courageous journalism in a landscape filled with disinformation. If every person who came here for news this month gave just $15, we would be fully funded for a year. Thanks to a group of generous donors, all donations today will be TRIPLED, which means your $15 gift is worth $45. If you believe that freedom of speech and freedom of the press are essential to the functioning of a democratic society, please donate today. Every dollar makes a difference. Thank you so much.

Democracy Now!

Trump Administration Seeks to Deport 4-Year-Old Who Could Die If She Loses Healthcare

HeadlineMay 28, 2025

In more immigration news, the Trump administration has ordered the removal of a 4-year-old girl from Mexico — despite the child’s immediate risk of death if she loses the medical treatment she’s been receiving in the United States. The girl came to the U.S. with her parents, who also face expulsion and were granted permission to live in the country under humanitarian grounds in 2023. The girl, identified only by her initials, S.G.V., has been receiving care for her short bowel syndrome at the Children’s Hospital Los Angeles. One of the girl’s physicians said that if her treatment is interrupted, she could die in a matter of days.
