Wonderful news:

The family of a 4-year-old Bakersfield girl with a rare medical condition has been granted humanitarian protection from deportation, allowing her to continue receiving lifesaving treatment in the United States.

. . .

The girl and her parents, who are from Mexico, originally received temporary permission to enter the U.S. legally through Tijuana in 2023.

The Trump administration had rescinded the legal protections of S.G.V. and her parents, leaving them vulnerable to deportation. Her doctor at Children’s Hospital Los Angeles said she could die within days of losing her medical care for short bowel syndrome, a condition that prevents her body from completely absorbing nutrients from food.

“By moving quickly, the agency has ensured that a four‑year‑old girl can continue receiving the specialized medical treatment that keeps her alive,” said the family’s attorney Rebecca Brown of the nonprofit Public Counsel.

The report notes that of U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services informed the parents that their Humanitarian Parole has been extended for one more year.

Good news is so welcome these days.

A Tragic Irony

It’s always been about the Jews:

One of the eight people injured in an attack against a group of people gathered Sunday on Boulder’s Pearl Street Mall was a Holocaust survivor. . .

A friend, Chany Scheiner, told 9NEWS that one of the victims was a Holocaust survivor.
“She is an amazing person. Not because she is hurt. She always is an amazing person,” Scheiner said. “She speaks – she has spoken at our synagogues, as well as other synagogues and schools just about her background and the Holocaust and from her own perspective. She is passionate about standing up for good things, and she is an extremely exceptional person. Always a smile on her face. Her life wasn’t easy, but she is just a bright light. And anybody who is her friend is a friend for life.”

It’s heartbreaking that an individual who survived a living hell in her earlier years also had to survive a living hell in her later years. And in the same nation that had earlier rescued so many like her.

If you’re keeping score:

So in a period of less than 2 months, individuals openly claiming to be motivated by the “free Palestine” movement have:

– Tried to burn down the home of the Jewish Pennsylvania Governor with his family inside.

– Executed a couple leaving a Jewish museum in DC

– Thrown Molotov cocktails at elderly Jewish people advocating to free hostages in Colorado.

The intifada is already here. The people who tried to downplay this threat should be ashamed.

About the cold-blooded suspect:

“When he was interviewed about the attack, he said he wanted them all to die, he had no regrets and he would go back and do it again,” Acting U.S. Attorney J. Bishop Grewell for the District of Colorado said during a press conference Monday.
