Madonna worries twin daughters she adopted from Malawi will be ‘considered vermin’ under Trump

Madonna worried that the twin daughters she adopted from Malawi will be ‘considered Vermin’ under a second Trump administration. 

The 66-year-old pop star has been a longtime outspoken advocate of liberal causes and a vociferous critic of Donald Trump.

In response to his election victory against Kamala Harris this Tuesday, Madonna posted a picture of herself eating a cake frosted with the phrase: ‘F*** Trump.’

Now she has revealed that her 12-year-old twins Stella and Estere are ‘so upset about the election,’ in a lengthy Instagram rant posted Friday.

She adopted four of her six children from Malawi – Stella and Estere as well as her son David Banda, 19, and her daughter Mercy James, 18.

Madonna’s Instagram message was accompanied by a selfie of her distraught expression, plus another picture in which her face was partly hidden by a tilted cap.

‘I woke up this morning and the first thought that came to my head was-America hates Women! – Not that I haven’t always felt the wrath of misogyny breathing down my neck,’ wrote the Material Girl.

‘I walked downstairs to my daughter’s classroom . They are being homeschooled – they were taking a science test,’ she continued. ‘I hugged them both and I started to cry . They are so upset about the elections and they are 12!! They are adopted from Malawi. Will they be considered Vermin by the government as well?’

The Papa Don’t Preach songstress added: ‘But it’s not just women that America hates. They straight up hate Freedom. They want lower taxes, but they don’t mind if they live in a Totalitarian government to get them.’

Madonna went on: ‘I don’t want to let go of our democracy!! Now we will all have to fight even harder to hang onto it.’

She expressed the view that ‘Americans who voted for Trump or didn’t vote at all- showed that many people are OK with a dictatorship to take over . I don’t want my friends that are not naturally born Americans to live in internment camps.!!’

Madonna wrote that ‘I want my daughters and all of their friends to have agency over their bodies!! . To feel valued. Not like second-class.citizens. How could women vote for Trump? We fought for so long for so much! What are we going to do with our feelings of disappointment?’

She issued a call to action: ‘The universe is telling us that we have to spend the next four years fighting for our freedom !!! Are you prepared to fight? Critical thinking and getting involved in our community is needed. Be prepared to fight for your freedom Be prepared to fight for your life ! I’m not giving up hope . Are you with Me?’

Along with the children she brought home from Malawi, Madonna is also mother to two biological children – Lourdes, 28, by her former personal trainer Carlos Leon, and Rocco, 24, by her ex-husband Guy Ritchie. 

Madonna was spotted on Election Day accompanying Lourdes to the polls, and after they cast their ballots, they both emerged onto the street sporting ‘I Voted’ stickers.

Over the years, Madonna has paid multiple visits to Malawi, a country with which she shares a longstanding connection since she adopted children there. 

The Express Yourself hitmaker has set up a Mercy James Insтιтute For Pediatric Surgery And Intensive Care through her charity Raising Malawi. 

The insтιтute is part of Queen Elizabeth Central Hospital in Blantyre, Malawi’s second city, and is one of Madonna’s multiple charitable missions in the country. 

There was a flare-up of controversy when Madonna and Guy Ritchie adopted David, owing in part to the fact the little boy’s father Yohane was still alive. 

Yohane publicly supported the adoption at the time, telling The Guardian: ‘My interest is in the child’s best chance for health and education.’

He confessed: ‘It was a hard choice to make, but when it seemed likely that David would have a better life with a new family, I could not say no.’

Yet as Madonna recalled in a People interview a few years ago: ‘Every newspaper said I kidnapped him. In my mind, I was thinking: “Wait a minute. I’m trying to save somebody’s life. Why are you all s***ing on me right now?” I did everything by the book. That was a real low point for me. I would cry myself to sleep.’

Madonna and Guy had split up by the time of Mercy’s adoption – and the Dick Tracy star has claimed the divorce led Malawian officials to question her parenting ability.

She ultimately achieved the adoption by taking her case to Malawi’s Supreme Court Of Appeal, but said: ‘The way I was treated – that Sєxist behavior – was ridiculous.’

Stella and Estere’s father gave an interview to The Mail On Sunday in 2017 expressing shock at the revelation they were being taken from him permanently.

‘I was told from the start that Esther and Stella were going to a rich woman’s home abroad, that she would give them a good education, then return them to me, to live with me and help all of my family,’ said the father, Adam Mwale.

‘Now you are telling me the adoption is permanent. That cannot be true – I don’t want it to be true. I am their father and I will always be their father.’

He maintained: ‘The orphanage boss told me it would be a wonderful chance for my little girls, and for their brother and sisters at home. I was told to agree with everything in court. I did not believe I would never see my girls again.’

The then 40-year-old farmer, who was living in the village of Kayembe, told The Mail On Sunday: ‘I was standing with my brother-in-law who signed the consent forms with me, and we just continued to believe that I would always be the twins’ father and they would be coming home to me.’

Raising Malawi was plunged into scandal in 2011, when allegations of money mismanagement emerged after plans to build a girls’ school were scuttled. 

More than $3 million was sunk into the unrealized project, and the board of directors of Raising Malawi were fired amid the controversy, the New York Times reported.
