Selena Gomez has hit back at a former US Senate candidate who demanded her deportation after she spoke out against the recent ICE raids.

Gomez had shared an emotional video on Instagram, expressing sympathy for those affected, especially children. However, her comments drew criticism, with Sam Parker accusing her of prioritizing “illegals” over America and displaying an “entitlement attitude.”

Parker called for Gomez’s deportation, citing her Mexican heritage. But Gomez responded with sarcasm, posting on Instagram: “Oh Mr. Parker, Mr. Parker. Thanks for the laugh and the threat.” Her response makes it clear she’s not intimidated by Parker’s remarks.
