An Irish grandmother who has lived in the US for most of her life and holds a green card is facing deportation because she wrote a bad cheque for $25 in 2015.

Donna Hughes-Brown, 58, was detained in July after landing in Chicago on a flight from Dublin and is being held in isolation in a detention centre in Kentucky. She has lived in the US since 1977, has five children and grandchildren, and ran a horse farm in Troy, Missouri.

Her husband, Jim Brown, a US citizen and military veteran, told reporters his wife was not a criminal and that he “100%” regretted voting for Donald Trump as president.

Brown, who served in the navy and marines for decades, said he had supported Trump’s promise to deport “criminal illegal immigrants” but that federal authorities were targeting other people to reach quotas.

You look at the news, and they’re not telling the truth about what’s actually happening to a lot of legal immigrants. What’s bad is that Trump is so demeaning to people, and he’s so condescending and so retaliatory that people are afraid to say anything.”

Trump supporter shocked to find out that "the news" that told them to support trump isn't honest about trump...

Like, I think it's a safe bet that everyone who voted trump watches anything that doesn't just suck his nuts 24/7

Next Week, after watching OAN, Newsmax & Fox:

He gazed up at the enormous face. Eight years it had taken him to learn what kind of smile was hidden beneath that orange bronzer. O cruel, needless misunderstanding! O stubborn, self-willed exile from the loving breast! Two whiskey-scented tears trickled down the sides of his nose. But it was all right, everything was all right, the struggle was finished. He had won the victory over himself. He loved The Trumpster.

Yeah, I thought these people shunned the mainstream media so much that they only got the rEal fUlL tRuThY TROOTH from Dear Leader on Truth Social and Fox News.

It's called TRUTH Social. It means he can't lie! Right?
