To the editor: This is absolutely the worst behavior of any of the henchmen of President Trump. Laura Loomer has managed to go down to a level that is completely in the gutter criticizing Gaza's children who arrived in the United States with visas for medical treatment (“The Trump administration stops visas for gaza people”, August 17). If it is true that she influences the Trump administration, it has made it much more difficult for children to receive medical treatment for what happens when bombs financed by the United States fall into primary schools and hospitals on behalf of the defense of Israel.
How have we angry so much with the rest of the world that we will not allow a child to be treated fairly when it damages them something that had nothing to do with? Is this the way we proclaim our superiority as a world dominant? Can anyone in Congress stop this madness?

To the editor: Despite all the general degradations and the torsion of morals and American ideals that the Trump administration has imposed on our nation, the arrest of visitors' visas for “seriously injured children” of Gaza is a new minimum. Apparently, the Administration takes its Loomer March orders, of all people, should not be surprising, but it still surprises me.
The 15 reported children and their adult tutors who had been awarded these temporary visas in the last two weeks with the help of Heal Palestine were a “national security threat,” according to Loomer. Actually? This action is a disgusting misfortune (using a word often repeated by Trump) that embarrasses all associates with it, and by extension, to all Americans. Will this cruelty stop?
