Ofelia Torres, teen who fought to have her father released from ICE custody, dies from rare cancer Ofelia Torres, 16, died on Friday from Stage 4 alveolar rhabdomyosarcoma, a rare and aggressive form of cancer, her father's lawyer confirmed.

A child dying of cancer spent her final days fighting to free her wrongfully detained father from ICE custody.
 
This comes just weeks after a mother from Maryland was denied the right to be at her son’s side as he died from cancer.
 
Not one dime for this cruelty.

Has anyone noticed that whenever one of Trump's mob
is talking they tend to throw in the phrase, " All the good things
Trump has done for the country," in their blathering?🤔

😏Someone needs to ask for the list.

That cliff is a lit match, honey-bright;
the beach, a black screen.
Waves refresh the page, deleting my footsteps.
I text the wind your name, no signal,
so I kiss the salt and let my heart buzz,
tide-powered, wanting you.

Political cartoon showing a large chainsaw labeled “DEREGULATION” cutting into a tree. The tree’s canopy is labeled with words including “ENVIRONMENT,” “HEALTH STANDARDS,” “DIGITAL RIGHTS,” and “etc.” A figure labeled “Ursula von der Leyen” is pushing the chainsaw into the tree, which looks distressed and is cracking. On the left, a large figure resembling Donald Trump applauds, with “clap clap clap” written beside him. In the center, a smaller figure labeled “Milei,” wearing a suit and wild hair, raises both fists in celebration. The scene suggests deregulation aggressively damaging public protections while some political figures cheer. Cartoon by Khalil Bendib.

Worryingly, she is now getting absolute backing from #Merz, #Meloni, #DeWever & others

Talking of deaths caused by Trump & RFK Jr’s policies….

(It always blows my mind when “progressives” say they like RFK Jr because he is going after food dyes; if you think killing kids by rolling back vaccines & pushing raw camel’s milk & poisoning the environment is OK, you are NOT progressive)
