Once again, the Democrats and their corporate media allies tried to paint the Trump administration as cruel, heartless, and anti-immigrant — and once again, the narrative collapsed under the weight of the actual facts.
This time, the Left pounced on the tragic case of four-year-old Sofia Vargas, a young girl from Mexico suffering from short bowel syndrome, a rare and life-threatening condition that requires 14 hours of intravenous nutrition a day just to survive. After her family’s legal status in the U.S. was changed, media outlets breathlessly claimed she was being deported under President Trump’s immigration policies.
A 4-year-old girl was legally admitted to the U.S. to access essential healthcare for a life-threatening condition.
Now, the Trump Administration is forcing her family to leave — despite doctors warning it could kill her.

The @GOP are sending a 4 year old off to her death without a care in the world. It’s sick. https://t.co/GUhjiZWgdC

Trump is ordering a critically ill 4-year-old girl deported. She was granted humanitarian entry in 2023.
Sophia suffers from short bowel syndrome. She needs round-the-clock IV nutrition and regular specialist visits.

Cue the outrage: leftist politicians, Twitter blue-checks, and immigration activists jumped on the story faster than Kamala Harris jumps off a campaign trail. They called Trump “barbaric,” “sick,” and accused him of sentencing a child to death for political points.
Except — it’s not true. Not even close.
Reports of 4 year old Sofia Vargas being deported, despite needing critical medical care in the US, are indeed false. Nice try Governor Newscum. pic.twitter.com/aW1FFQ3e7W

In reality, Sofia’s family came into the U.S. during the Biden administration in July 2023 under Biden’s CBP One app program — a system heavily abused to circumvent normal immigration laws. They were granted temporary humanitarian parole to receive medical care. Earlier this month, they were notified that their temporary status had expired — a standard bureaucratic update that could apply to anyone in a similar situation.
Still, Democrats and their media allies spun it into an emotional smear campaign against Trump — even though the Trump administration didn’t even issue the original parole.
Fortunately, the Department of Homeland Security decided to do something the media won’t: tell the truth. A DHS official confirmed that Sofia is not being deported, and that her family’s application for renewed humanitarian parole is still under review.
“Any reporting that Vargas and her family are actively being deported are FALSE,” the official told The Independent. Imagine that — another hit job blown to bits by facts.
This entire debacle highlights the worst of our political media: emotional manipulation, rushed narratives, and zero accountability. Democrats didn’t care about the facts — they saw an opportunity to smear President Trump and ran with it.
But in the end, it’s just another fake headline added to the pile. And Americans are waking up. Lies like this are why Trump’s support continues to grow — because people are sick and tired of being lied to by the very people claiming the moral high ground.
The liberal press and Democrats get what they want and intended to do. While some are waking up to the Lies, many still buy this garbage hook, line, and sinker. The Democrats still have many people fooled, and the liberal press is doing everything in their power to support the lies and deception.
