the U.S. by multiple courts, including the Supreme Court.
Homeland Security Secretary John Kelly on Thursday criticized Sen. Bob Casey
Jr.’s (D-Pa.) “outrageous” tweets decrying a recent deportation.
Casey on Wednesday urged President Trump and the Department of Homeland
Security (DHS) to halt the deportation of a Honduran mother and child, and
then took to Twitter to shame Trump and the DHS.
“You can’t pick and choose the laws you follow,” Kelly responded on
Thursday, according to McClatchy. “I can’t pick and choose the laws I
enforce.”
“You have to understand that ICE, Immigration and Customs Enforcement,
Homeland Security, John Kelly, I don’t, we don’t deport people. The law
deports people.”
Kelly added that he tried contacting Casey five times following the senator
’s Twitter outburst.
Casey on Wednesday railed against the deportation of a Honduran mother and
her 5-year-old son.
“Twitter: it’s urgent,” he tweeted. “I just found that a young child &
mother who came to U.S. seeking refugee will be sent back to Honduras today.”
“I just had a picture of this 5yr old come across my desk,” Casey
continued. “He’s adorable and wrote that he had ‘nowhere to go.’”
“What I won’t do: stand by silently as a vulnerable child and his mother
are sent to their possible death.”
McClatchy said that Faby Manzanares and her son flew back to Honduras on
Wednesday, after more than a year in the U.S.
The two were among a dozen mothers and children who had been held for over a
year at the Berks County Residential Center near Reading, Pa.
Casey on Wednesday described the pair’s return to Honduras as “a potential
death sentence” due to gang violence there. | r*********t
