When you’ve got a child forever ripped from your arms because choices were made for political reasons, the question is no longer ‘right and left’ but ‘right and wrong’.
The only thing ‘political’ about this parent’s outrage is the nature of the decisions that cut short her daughter’s life. Deliberate choices were made, and this mom is demanding justice. (Details of the crime, and how callously indifferent her killer was can be read here.)
Jessica Gordan sat before Congress, testifying how the Democrat sanctuary city policy, and their open hostility to ICE, was directly responsible for the senseless murder of their sweet daughter one night on a Chicago pier.

And this is one of the shorter highlights from that message that has been ligting up the internet.
Damning words: “I don’t understand why it’s only the Republican side that cares about our American children.”
NEW: “I don’t understand why it’s only the Republican side that cares about our American children.”

Those words were shown true in that very hearing. Not just with this moment from the testimony:
Jessica Gorman, mother of murdered Loyola student Sheridan Gorman, tells it like it is:
“The man accused of murdering my daughter is Jose Medina, an ILLEGAL IMMIGRANT from Venezuela.”
Loyola’s own student newspaper APOLOGIZED to the illegal immigrant who executed her daughter!
But from the callous indifference she saw from Democrats like Squad bigwig Prayapal.

And does it get any more callous than the reaction of Chicago’s Mayor?
Jessica Gorman calls out the Democrats for calling to abolish ICE:
"We’re in Chicago getting ready to claim my daughter’s body and the Mayor there is naming a truck ‘abolish ICE’, standing and laughing and joking while my daughter was just murdered there. Like, what?” pic.twitter.com/SkLDPPDmLX

Maybe the mayor is so VERY accustomed to people dying in his city that one more dead kid no longer matters.
It’s the same reflex we saw from Pelosi when Trump called savage gang-bangers notorious for sadistic violence ‘animals’ and she felt obliged to blurt out some nonsense about the dignity and worth of every person.
What even a decently intelligent child could see wrong with her counter is the fact that whitewashing sadistic murderers as possessing ‘divine light’ does not elevate all immigrants, it merely cheapens the death of their victims. Making people like Jessica Gorman suffer further for a loss that could have been prevented if only the politicians cared more about public service and the general good than they did about political power and re-election.
