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.

Someone has sure already made this observation but the fact they can convert all those empty warehouses into prison camps means they could have converted them into housing, community centers, job training centers or, hell, libraries or schools all along. It’s always a matter of will not resources.

Israeli court blocks life-saving cancer care for boy, 5, due to his Gaza address
Palestinian boy has been in the West Bank since 2022 but is still registered as a resident in the strip where ban applies An Israeli court has rejected an appeal to allow a five-year-old Palestinian boy with an aggressive form of cancer to enter Israel for life-saving treatment, citing a government policy that bars residents registered in Gaza from crossing the border, even when they no longer live there. In a ruling issued on Sunday, the Jerusalem district court dismissed a petition seeking permission to transfer the child from Ramallah to TelHashomer hospital near Tel Aviv for a bone marrow transplant – a procedure unavailable in either Gaza or the occupied West Bank. The boy has been in the West Bank since 2022 where he was receiving medical care unavailable in the Gaza Strip. His doctors have determined that he urgently requires antibody immunotherapy.

Presenting unvalidated products as legitimate alternatives for the treatment/management of medical conditions should be rejected by all US citizens. A waste of resources. Likely harmful. A government that makes decisions based on ideology rather than science is not looking out for its people.
