1. Hope her two adopted kids enjoy their new life back in Haiti

12. Patronage

Her children are at no risk of deportation. The way the system works is that selected people from the out groups are allowed in. Also, the system lets the elite practice charity, as long as they don’t challenge inequality. I wish all the children well, no children are responsible for adult choices. But this system sucks.

14. Typically adoption allows for expedited citizenship.

I presume they are citizens. (I have relatives who adopted from Colombia) One was adopted in 2005 and the second one in 2010. Temporary Protected Status for Haitians didn't start until Aug 2024 so they obviously didn't have TPS. https://www.uscis.gov/humanitarian/temporary-protected-status/temporary-protected-status-designated-country-haiti

15. And I know a couple who adopted from Guatemala

He was adopted as an infant and he's adult now. But to be sure to be safe he carries his papers with him at all times.

[Igel]

18. And had they been admitted under TPS, adoption would have changed what statuses they could apply for. n/t

2. She's morally bankrupt

The punk was an inexperienced ideologue chosen to do injustice and she is

[ananda]

11. And that'sputting it kindly.

...

13. Colonizing Religion

I’m reading RI history and the role of religion in stilling the consciences of exploiters.

[NewEnglandAutumn]

4. I feel awful for this kids

They are growing up knowing they were only adopted to roll out for 'show'.

[QueerDuck]

6. Uh-oh! Someone left the library basement unlocked again!

Bye!

[AZJonnie]

7. I helped with saying bye bye ...

The wingnuts live in a complete fucking fantasy world.

To address that person's nonsense, the republican governor actually said he was happy they were there, and IN FACT, the city RECRUITED THEM to come there. They were not "dumped" on Springfield, OH. They were mostly INVITED, and according to numerous managers of businesses, were hard-working and reliable.

When you're a wingnut though, and all you ever watch is Faux Nooz and that ilk, you never actually take in any FACTS, only propaganda. And you just can't IMAGINE that a community would WELCOME a bunch of black people. It's not fathomable to their racist brains, ergo, it's extremely easy for them to be convinced that everyone there HATED it.

It's funny too, they tried to talk about how all of US are 'insulated' from the terrible plague of Haitians, as if they were right there, suffering themselves, and none of us liberals could understand the horror from our ivory towers

It's like every one of them is part of a hive mind, and came straight out of central casting, to spout their BS talking points

[IronLionZion]

8. I'd like to see a reality show where MAGA voters do the jobs immigrants were doing

it would be fun to see what happens

A common MAGA comment is that immigrants have tons of people living together in one room apartments, as if that's proof of something bad.

[City Lights]

21. Now *that* is a reality TV show I would watch! nt

9. Was anyone expecting her to do anything more than check the "Performative Christian" box?

Yeah, I didn't think so either . . .

[Vinca]

22. It puzzles me is that it was a Christian missionary group that brought the Haitians here in the first place.

What an odd stew of traditional, Jesus-y Christians and the current busybody hatemongers.

[multigraincracker]

10. Home of the free Land of the bigots.

[Raftergirl]

16. Foreign adopted children are automatically citizens. They passed a law about 25 years ago. They don't

have to even apply for citizenship. I know this because we adopted our son from S. Korea.

Tbs, she’s an ass.

[IzzaNuDay]

17. There will be a reckoning in the Barrett household

Those children KNOW what she did. And I won’t be surprised if they decide to part from her. And the next school year, how is Justice Barrett going to to handle if those kids are targeted by others. They cannot live in a whiteish bubble forever.

[BlueWaveNeverEnd]

19. Picture is from 2020. Those kids are probably college age now

[IzzaNuDay]

24. 2026 Estimated ages of the two, 25 and 22

Regardless, they will know. and as they integrate into society as adults they will always have that challenge, I bet they were raised by the adoptive parents in a bubble, a big problem in some interracial adoptions.

[Diamond_Dog]

27. Probably have home tutors.

[MichMan]

28. Why? They are 22 and 25 years old.

[Diamond_Dog]

29. I was replying to the poster who wondered about the two kids during the next school year.

I figured they probably had either tutors or an exclusive private school. I did not realize their ages at this time.

[standingtall]

20. Who is surprised by the hypocrisy of right wing political figures and Judges

Matt Bevin the former Governor of Kentucky and a dirt bag. Adopted some kids from Africa used them for political props and at least one of them at the age of 18 ended up living in a homeless shelter in Louisville, so this type of stuff is on brand for them.

[Kid Berwyn]

25. Hypocrisy

GOP’s strong suit.

[Diamond_Dog]

26. You'd think she would have a better idea

As to why good and decent Haitians want to come to America. Just mind boggling she would vote against this.
