The Trump administration retaliated on Selena Gomez after the singer shared (and deleted shortly) a video in tears in which she apologized for the expulsion of undocumented immigrants in the United States.
The White House shared a video featuring comments from mothers of children who were killed by undocumented people with legend: “Their courageous mothers had something to say to @selenagomez and those who oppose securing our borders. “
The video, featuring women whose children have been tragically murdered by undocumented people, also questions the character of Gomez and implies without remembering that she has no empathy for the victims and simulated her reaction to mass deportations.
Earlier this month, Gomez, who is an American of third generation Mexican origin, “said in his video:” All my people are attacked … the children. I don’t understand. I’m really sorry. I would like to be able to do something but I can’t. I don’t know what to do. I will try everything, I promise it. She quickly removed the clip in the middle of the complaints of Trump supporters.
“Apparently, it’s not ok to show empathy for people,” said Gomez in an Instagram story after removing the video.
Friday, the White House shared its answer, which featured the mothers of Jocelyn Nungaray, Kayla Hamilton and Rachel Morin. Nungaray was killed by two undocumented migrants from Venezuela in June of last year. Hamilton was killed in 2022 by a teenage member of the Gang MS-13, and Morin was raped and murdered by Victor Martinez Hernandez, who has entered the United States from Salvador.
“Seeing this video, it is difficult to believe that it is really authentic and real because she is an actress,” said Nungaray’s mother, Alexis, in the video. “My daughter was a child. There are many other children whose life has been taken because of the people who have crossed here illegally. »»
“You don’t know who you cry for. What about our children who were brutally murdered, raped and beaten to death and left on the ground by these illegal immigrants? »Asks Hamilton’s mother, Tammy Nobles.
In particular, Gomez in his original video was talking about children and other innocent people who are expelled despite the assertion of the Trump administration that actions are only targeted on criminals. (The trouble to note that in yourself, being undocumented is not a crime, although the illegally crossing of crossing the border is classified as a civil offense.)
