Why isn’t this a bigger story? Where are the court cases about this and where are the protests?

A federal judge has said that a two-year-old US citizen may have been deported to Honduras with her mother and 11-year-old sister without due process, amid the Trump administration's drive to ramp up deportations.

In a court filing, Judge Terry Doughty said that there was "strong suspicion" that the child - identified only as VML - was deported "with no meaningful process".

The Louisiana-born child and her family members were apprehended during a routine appointment at a New Orleans immigration office on 22 April, according to the document.

A spokesperson for the US Department of Homeland Security said the mother wanted to take her children with her when she was sent to Honduras.


Of course Homeland Security never lies about deportations.
