Well the media is supposed to investigate these claims because they’re journalist correct? Big L oh L

Love the headline ‘Man SAID his mom died due to Iraqi travel ban’

he said it, so it must be true, huh?

maybe he shouldn’t have put his mother on a plane ride to the other side of the world, and maybe he should have stayed there with her if she was so ill.

When are we going to see the media run stories about all the thousands of Americans who are killed every year by illegal aliens?

The same MO as accusing Romney of killing his employees with cancer. I think the majority of people no longer fall for the endless stream of lib sob stories.

On the bright side, we know this sad sack won’t be invited to the State of the Union speech.

Let’s give an “A” to the Chronicle for finding the best sob story so far about the “Muslim ban.” Trump killed the poor woman, just like Romney gave that guy cancer in 2012. Its as if Trump strangled the poor elderly woman with his own hands while shouting “Make America Great Again” and then laughing maniacally.

Heard something like that...

My neighbors cousins neighbors uncles friends mother in laws cousins grandmother who was 94 died because of DT ban on ???

Seems ‘they’ were protesting on the freeway and had all lanes blocked and the 3rd ambulance sent to get her couldn’t get through because of the protestors.

(President)TRUMPs fault because ‘they’ were protesting him.

His mother was brought to a hospital and died within 24 hrs. If she had been allowed on the plane she probably would have died on board. How long is the flight from Iraq to the US? It has to be close to 24 hrs.

"I thought this got zotted earlier this morning?"

I think that this one was allowed to remain because the one earlier referred to the man as a "veteran", when he was not .. basically, he was just a contractor .. and, I believe, that it came from a questionable source (more questionable, I guess, than the San Fran Chronicle).

Questions have been raised about the validity of Mike Hager’s claims that his mother died while waiting for approval to come to Michigan. FOX 2 news is working to resolve the questions about Hager’s story. We’ll update this page with further details.

“A troll posted this earlier but neglected to provide a real working link.”

Said troll and #FAKE thread are now gone...zotted, scattered and smothered.
