Angel Mom Flips The Script On Trump Haters With ‘Love’ Message

The mother of Sheridan Gorman, a young college student who was fatally shot by an illegal immigrant in the sanctuary city of Chicago earlier this year, took the stage at the RNC midterm convention on Thursday and shared a message about loving America that went beyond politics.

As she fought through tears on the stage in Dallas, Jessica Gorman shared the advice of “a fellow angel mom” about unifying the country.

“A fellow angel mom, Patti Fox, recently said you need to love America, Americans more than you hate Trump,” Jessica said while joined by her husband Tom and Sheridan’s sister Madeline.

“Patti, God bless you and your daughter, Carissa. You are so right. We need to love our country and our children enough to come together regardless of which party or person is in charge. We do,” she said.

Sheridan, an 18-year-old Loyola University freshman, was walking with friends to see the Northern Lights around 1 a.m. on March 19 when she was killed. Venezuelan illegal immigrant Jose Medina-Medina, 25, allegedly approached Gorman wearing a black mask before shooting her as she tried to run.

Medina-Medina crossed the border illegally in May 2023 and was released into the country by federal authorities, who were instructed to implement the Biden administration’s then-policy of “catch and release.” At the time, Border Patrol agents noted that Medina-Medina was “likely to abscond,” saying that he had “close family ties or roots in this country,” according to federal documents previously released by the House Judiciary Committee.

The Venezuelan national then made his way to Chicago, where he allegedly shoplifted from a local Macy’s that September, according to the Chicago Tribune. Medina-Medina did not appear for a hearing in the case, leading authorities to issue a warrant for his arrest.

During the Gorman family’s convention speech, Tom called out the “sanctuary policies” that “stole our daughter from us.”

“And that is why we’re speaking out,” he said. “We don’t want anyone else to have to hold the cold hand of their daughter and know that it was 100% preventable because the person who killed her should not have been in this country and should not have been released after committing a crime.”

“I’m begging you, whether you’re a Republican, a Democrat, or an independent, do not wait until this becomes your story. Every vote counts, especially now,” the grieving father added.
