I don\u2019t understand,\u201d Selena said while wiping the tears from her face. \u201cI\u2019m so sorry, I wish I could do something, but I can\u2019t. I don\u2019t know what to do. I\u2019ll try everything, I promise.\u201d<\/p>\n Selena Gomez shares new Instagram story crying amid the deportation of Mexicans:<\/p>\n \u201cI\u2019m so sorry. All my people are getting attacked.

Maybe Selena should be deported, too?\u201d<\/p>\n In response to Sam\u2019s bullying, Selena took to her Instagram Stories to write, \u201cOh, Mr. Parker, Mr. Parker. Thanks for the laugh and the threat.\u201d<\/p>\n Selena Gomez has responded to me. \ud83e\udd23 https:\/\/t.co\/kg9qfUJB0z<\/a> pic.twitter.com\/1iipRp7Gbk<\/a><\/p>\n \u2014 Sam Parker \ud83c\uddfa\ud83c\uddf2 (@SamParkerSenate) January 28, 2025<\/a><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n The Republican took to X again to admit that he \u201cdragged\u201d Selena \u201cpretty hard today.\u201d<\/p>\n \u201cBut the truth is, I partially blame millions of white Americans for Selena Gomez\u2019s attitude: she identifies w\/another people b\/c she\u2019s doesn\u2019t see America as anything more than an economic zone of monetary opportunity [sic],\u201d Sam claimed in another tweet. \u201cThat\u2019s not really anything special to identify with, though, so of course she identifies w\/her ancestral Mexico. In this, she\u2019s no different from millions of MAGA & conservatives who also don\u2019t see any special identity associated with America. It\u2019s just a big marketplace of ideas & GDP, after all. Colorblind meritocracy! Like, wtf is there to even identify with? A piece of paper that says you\u2019re \u2018American?’\u201d<\/p>\n Deport Selena Gomez. https:\/\/t.co\/QkkDIBWBKD<\/a><\/p>\n \u2014 Sam Parker \ud83c\uddfa\ud83c\uddf2 (@SamParkerSenate) January 27, 2025<\/a><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n Sam added in his lengthy follow-up tweet, \u201cYes, I\u2019m looking at you, Mr. & Ms. Offended MAGA \u2018American.\u2019 I\u2019m blaming you for Selena\u2019s lack of American identity & loyalty.
