Ponderable

Sheriff can you please post the article on the 7 year old girl that died in US custody.

Septic shock occurs in the best hospitals and under the care of the most skilled clinicians. If not caught early it is often fatal and even when diagnosed early still is fatal.

The left will surely, as you are, to point the finger and use this tradegy as a gotcha moment ... disgusting

Further more.. All the more reason not to drag your kid thousands miles and putting them in harms way. Or perhaps don't have children when you live in poverty and live in a country that offers zero opportunities to better your life, let alone your offspring.

Terrible tragedy, shame on those parents for putting their kid in that situation.
Anything else?


Guatemala girl, 7, dies in US custody 'of dehydration, shock'
Washington Post reports the child died of dehydration and shock after being arrested by Border Patrol agents.

A seven-year-old girl has died after being taken into custody by the US Border Patrol, the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) confirmed on Thursday.

The girl, from Guatemala, died of dehydration and shock eight hours after she was taken into custody, the Washington Post reported.

On December 6, the child and her father had been held by immigration authorities in the US state of New Mexico as part of a group of 163 people who approached US agents to turn themselves in, the newspaper reported.

Early on December 7, the girl was found to have a 41-degree-Celsius fever and was taken by helicopter to El Paso hospital in Texas where she died, according to the report.

A statement by a DHS spokesperson said: "an accompanied female juvenile detainee began having seizures."

The names of the girl and her father were not released. The agency, which typically provides food and water to migrants in its custody, is investigating the incident to ensure whether appropriate policies were followed, the Post said.

The death of the child is expected to intensify scrutiny over the conditions endured by those held at Border Patrol stations and Customs and Border Protection (CBP) facilities under the administration of Donald Trump, who has made toughening immigration policies a central tenet of his presidency and has pledged to build a wall along the southern border with Mexico.

"This tragedy represents the worst possible outcome when people, including children, are held in inhumane conditions," Cynthia Pompa, advocacy manager for the ACLU Border Rights Center, said in a statement.

"Lack of accountability and a culture of cruelty within CBP have exacerbated policies that lead to migrant deaths," she added. "In 2016, migrant deaths increased even as the number of border crossings dramatically decreased."

Jerry Nadler, the top Democrat on the House of Representatives Judiciary Committee, wrote on Twitter that the head of the Department of Homeland Security, which oversees Customs and Border Protection, will appear in front of the panel next week.

"We will be demanding immediate answers to this tragedy," Nadler said.

Trump has sought to sow fear over thousands of migrants and refugees who have recently arrived at the border as part of an exodus, initially dubbed the Central American caravan. More than 6,000 people are currently waiting in Tijuana, northwestern Mexico, to file for asylum in the US.
Rights groups estimate many will have to wait up to two months before being allowed in the United States to submit their claims.

Many of the refugees and migrants have told Al Jazeera they are fleeing violence, poverty and political persecution.

Trump has sent more than 5,000 troops to the border to offer logistic support to border patrol agents. The Department of Defence approved a plan to extend the deployment of about 4,000 active-duty troops through January.

"When the Trump administration pushed for the militarisation of the border, including more border wall construction, they are driving people fleeing violence into the deadliest desert regions," said ACLU's Pompa, calling for a "rigorous investigation" into the girl's death and "serious reforms to prevent future deaths".

"The fact that it took a week for this to come to light shows the need for transparency for CBP."

This summer, the Trump administration's "zero tolerance" immigration policy, which resulted in separating children arriving at the border with their parents, caused a national outcry. The policy was mostly reversed.

Don’t get me wrong, amigos. The “mainstream media” does not label gun-control-loving Tim Mc Graw’s upcoming tour in the same manner as does this column. Instead we read stuff like this:


“Tim McGraw to perform in (totalitarian) Cuba-- McGraw’s 2019 Memorial Day Weekend trek, dubbed “One of Those HavanaNights.”..The McGraw trip offers lodging in ocean-view rooms at (totalitarian) Havana’s upscale Meliá Hotel, where a box of cigars and a bottle of rum will await each traveler. The all-inclusive tour is designed to make foreigners' typical Havana dreams come true, featuring a ride around (totalitarian) Havana in a classic American convertible, a rumba party, and the chance to “Walk in the footsteps of Hemingway and Obama!” in Old (totalitarian) Havana….Prices range from $2,999 to $5,799 for the four days (May 24-27), which does include airfare, (totalitarian) Cuban visas, taxis and other incidentals.”

I apologize for spending time clarifying this issue, amigos. But there was a day when most Americans understood what the term “totalitarian” meant. Indeed, the longest reigning totalitarian dictator in modern history himself explained the issue: “Inside the Revolution (regime), everything-- outside, nothing.” (Fidel Castro, July 16, 1961.) Like with so many others, Castro copped this line from Benito Mussolini.

Despite all the poppycock/propaganda from the Fake News Media about “reforms” in Cuba, Raul Castro’s son Alejandro (a fanatical Stalinist and KGB-trained Colonel in Cuba’s Secret police) actually runs Cuba from behind the scenes.


In fact, when Trump-hating CIA director Brennan (secretly) traveled to Cuba in 2015 to do some advance work to help facilitate Obama’s whimpering surrender (called “opening” by the Fake Mews Media) to the Castro-Family Crime-Syndicate (called “Cuba” by the Fake News Media) the man he met with was Alejandro Castro.

You see, amigos: Cuba’s entire economic infrastructure (and especially the tourism industry infrastructure) is majority-owned — not only by the Stalinist regime’s military and secret police sectors (the only people in Cuba with guns, in case you’d forgotten) — but more specifically by the Castro family itself.

In a presentation a few years ago at a hearing by the House Foreign Affairs Committee debating travel to Cuba by U.S. citizens, Lieutenant Colonel Christopher Simmons, a recently retired Defense Intelligence Agency Cuba specialist, explained the issue in detail. He showed how through a corporation named GAESA, Raul Castro’s military owns virtually every corporation involved in Cuba’s tourism industry, among the Stalinist regime’s top money-makers lately.

Nothing will end Cuba's totalitarian economic infrastructure faster than tourist packages sold by American pop and country stars to go down there and tour and drink and smoke cigars!
 
Hey is that the very popular 2-term US President who made the logical decision to enable us to take vacations to that nearby island country and start influencing them with our pop stars and country stars and economic power so we can liberalize their country?
The country is run by the Castro's...period.
The Castro cartel will reap the benefits & the money and continue to enslave the population.
=========================================
Castro's End: With Fidel Castro's death at 90, the encomiums are rolling in, especially from what remains of the American Big Media. But in fact, Castro during his 58 years of dictatorship was an evil man, a communist who tortured, killed and imprisoned with no remorse, a tyrant who tore a once-beautiful country apart and sent its finest citizens into exile.

Yet, the media might as well have been going around with black arm bands following Castro's death.

He was the "George Washington of his country," said Jim Avila of ABC's "Nightline." He "will be revered" for bringing education, social services and health care to Cubans, gushed MSNBC's Andrea Mitchell. CNN's Martin Savidge hailed Castro for "racial integration."

Elsewhere, in print, The New York Times recounted how he "dominated his country with strength and symbolism" — another way of saying he ruled through oppression and relentless propaganda.

Of course, all of these things are the kinds of lies and euphemisms used by left-leaning journalists to cover up for Castro's many crimes against humanity. And it's not limited to these few recent examples.

ABC's talk-queen Barbara Walters had what amounted to a middle-aged school-girl crush on Fidel. Film maker Oliver Stone, perhaps styling himself a latter-day Hemingway, revered Fidel's macho swagger and made a much-derided documentary about him, "Comandante." And Michael Moore, in his film "Sicko," swallowed Cuba's propaganda about its health care system hook, line and sinker.

We could go on. The list is long.

What you won't hear from any of these media mavens is that, at his death, Fidel Castro leaves a Cuba far worse off in almost every way than the one he took over in 1958. His brother, Raul, who is 85, has been the actual power in the country since Castro fell seriously ill in 2006. Cuba has improved under him, but not much.

After taking power in 1958, the then-youthful revolutionary Fidel vowed that no Cuban mother would "shed a tear" over violence from then on. But once he consolidated power after defeating Cuba's then-leader Fulgencio Batista, Fidel Castro set out on a course of extraordinary revolutionary violence.

He murdered thousands upon thousands. The late R.J. Rummel, a University of Hawaii professor who tracked mass-killings by governments around the world, estimated as many as 141,000 people were murdered by the Castro regime. And that was just through 1987. Since then, of course, thousands more have been killed.

Genocide Watch says it "holds the Castro regime responsible for the death of thousands of people (executed and died trying to flee the regime)." Both Belgium and Castro's homeland, Spain, have leveled genocide charges against the Jefe Maximo.

Sadly, Castro's Cuba isn't at all unusual for Communist regimes, as noted by Rummel. "Clearly, of all regimes, communist ones have been by far the greatest killer," he said.

What's especially galling is the suggestion -- present in almost every story on Castro's demise -- that he took an impoverished, oppressed nation and turned it into a kind of socialist paradise, with education, social services and health care for all.

This is an utter and complete lie. But don't take our word for it.

Too funny! I watched the Rolling Stones 2016 concert in Havana on TV Friday night. It was awesome! Then they sang Cuba's national anthem:

You can't always get what you want
You can't always get what you want
You can't always get what you want
But if you try sometimes you just might find
You just might find
You get what you need, oh yeah
 
Hey is that the very popular 2-term US President who made the logical decision to enable us to take vacations to that nearby island country and start influencing them with our pop stars and country stars and economic power so we can liberalize their country?
How did that work out for our diplomats?
