PER CURIAM.
Guatemalan citizen Arsenia Marisol Xirum-Tomas petitions for review of a
Board of Immigration Appeals decision upholding an immigration judge’s denial of
asylum and withholding of removal. Xirum-Tomas offers no basis for challenging
the determination that she established no nexus between the harm she claimed to have
suffered and any protected ground. See Gomez-Garcia v. Sessions, 861 F.3d 730, 733
(8th Cir. 2017) (standard for asylum); Malonga v. Mukasey, 546 F.3d 546, 551 (8th
Cir. 2008) (standard for withholding of removal). The petition for review is denied.
