His mom, Ada Bell Baquedano Amador, said Colindres’ relatives in Honduras live around four hours away from San Pedro Sula, where deportees are flown from the United States. Colindres left Honduras when he was just 8 years old and previously told The Enquirer he barely remembers living in the country.
His mother moved to the United States with her two small children in 2014 to flee persecution from gangs, she said. She applied for asylum, but was denied. …
…
Colindres was detained by ICE officials on June 4, and his mother and sister were given less than 30 days to leave the country.
Extremely unfortunate. Does anyone know of support networks built for people deported to some of these countries? Maybe ways we can help out to provide them a chance to immigrate elsewhere?
Fucks sake. Lived here since he was 8. Fascists are cowardly monsters.
bu-bu-but, think about how much more WHITE it will be!?!?!?! We’ll finally be great! Again! (heavy /s)
What’s also messed up is that it’s that hard for this kid to get citizenship. That’s just a broken system.
The worst part is they’re trying to find ways to strip naturalized citizenship. Trump was wanting to do that on his first term and didn’t have the numbers for it.
That’s precisely why I left. I’m a naturalized citizen AND trans, among other protected classes. It’s not safe for me to merely exist.
At least if they do revoke my citizenship I won’t have to pay them shit in taxes
Absolutely. The system has been broken for decades. This is all Congress’ fault.
hopefully he gets adopted by a good club in Europe or South America
To be fair, if he were really an up and coming star, he wouldn’t still be in the US at 19.
Yeah, I think the word “star” is a bit of an embellishment. He might have been the star of his highschool team or a starter in college, but by 19 if you aren’t on a pro roster then you aren’t a star. You can become a pro later in your life after college, like many in MLS have, but almost none of them are stars.
EDIT: Found it: he was the star of his highschool club team but didn’t even get any offers for college. His club coach is trying to get him a college offer to help him get back to the US on a student visa. That’s really far from being a “star.”
Yeah. I mean, “star” is subjective. But, to me, “star” means at a bare minimum someone who plays professionally or has the potential to play professionally. Really it should be the best player on their pro team, playing in a good league too.
I genuinely hope we put on the most humiliatingly pathetic display at the Olympics.
Like J know they train their whole lives for a shot but god damn.
Can you imagine the US throwing everything possible to Canada, Greenland, Ukraine, Palestine (assuming they even get representation in the 2026 games), and even further China and Russia…
My God Id be proud to be an American for a moment again.
Fuck throwing the damned thing, block it outright fly drones around LAX, Ontario International, And San Diego International a week in advanced. Then do as much sabotage as possible of the various facilities. I say this as a proud son of Berdoo, go apeshit LA fuck em.
This is assuming the whole thing isnt cancelled due to civil war or federal collapse.
