A 2-year-old American girl has been left stateless after the Trump administration deported her alongside her family.

Emanuelly Borges Santos, known to her family as Manu, was born in a Florida hospital in 2022. She has an American passport and a Social Security card. Nevertheless, Manu and her parents, who are both undocumented, were packed onto a plane with 94 others and shipped to Brazil in February, according to a report from The Washington Post.

When they arrived, Brazilian officials were shocked to find the American toddler among the deportees.

“We’d never seen another case like this,” federal police officer Alexsandra Oliveira Medeiros Reis told the Post.

    If there was a god, what kind of fucked up guy would he be?

    I want y’all to suffer under evil people but I won’t intervene because I want you to struggle to test whether you believe in me. I want you to believe in me despite me giving no evidence I exist at all except some weird contradictory book written by a bunch of people who I supposedly did reveal myself to. But I won’t reveal myself to you because I made a bet with the other bad god who’s not god, just one of my minions who started his own spot. All because I love you more than anything. I care so much about your “free will” to deal with the misery I created to test your faith because I love you. It’s really important you blindly, faithfully love me back above all despite how I test you or I will give you to the other guy to torture you even worse forever.

    What kind of demented abusive assed relationship would that be if god existed?

      I picture God, if there is one, as a researcher who is doing some kind of research on the plants and animals in an Earth shaped petri dish. He may have intervened in ancient times until he got the initial parameters he wanted but now he’s just monitoring and taking notes. Someday he’ll finish up and kill everything and start the dissection phase.

      Yup. IF God exists, he either doesn’t care for us at all, or is actively evil.

      Similar to like if we created a swamp somewhere and there was bacteria growing in it. We’d give no fucks, or poison the bacteria by dumping toxic shit in it.
