Neither she nor the women she met in detention deserved to be treated in the way they were. I agree that the stories of the other migrants are much more heart-wrenching than hers; but the treatment is cruel barbarism. Chains, fluorescent lights, cold cells, pat-downs, separation from children. Awful
This is a bit longer read, but you need to read it in its entirety. For this person (or any person) to be treated this way and without due process (by no stretch of the imagination are they "enemy combatants" plus we are not at war). I, as an American who has not drunk the Kool Aid, feel so ashamed.
Just like American icon Pres. Wilson did to mothers who protested entry into WW1 meat grinders. Woodrow was 10 times the oversexed groper Trump is. Woody had them dragged from their homes, threw them in cold cells where they died. Like Trump, fired gov't black workers & gutted civil service. Routine
Waiting to hear about Fabian Schmidt too www.wbur.org/news/2025/03...
She was entering through the US / Mexico border and Mexico now has a policy where non Mexican citizens can’t be returned to Mexico. This means that ICE has to detain them until transport to their home country is arranged. If they fight the deportation, they are detained longer. She was returned home
First they wrongly came for brown AMERICAN CITIZENS with Latin American roots & we said meh, then they wrongly came for a white Canadian woman & we're up in arms. Both are wrong. Both should bring outrage. Deported a child with brain cancer, & many others 🤬 www.txcivilrights.org/post/press-r...
From Canada’s point of view this is a direct attack on a Canadian. You take care of your own country, we’re busy fighting the annexation threat and the daily assaults on Canada. BTW, we aren’t suppressing the coverage of your vile and despicable government in Canada. We know all about your SS troups
But did she ACT CANADIAN, when ICE got her? Might have changed the outcome... youtu.be/DujyJ1EDft8?...
Is this the first you're hearing about this? It's been all over Canadian media for a while now. Here's a CBC story from last week: www.cbc.ca/news/canada/...
Fyi planned tourism by Canadians to the US is now down by 85% = way to go, Trump! = His inept business idiocy has now ICED that industry as well (to the tune of BILLIONS of $$$$): openjaw.com/newsroom/tou...
People are paying attention and questioning travel to the US. This is going to have a huge impact on the hospitality economy! #trumpcession bsky.app/profile/ecke...
With everything happening in the US right now, how safe are scientific conferences for foreign participants in the US? I think this is something we have to discuss as a scientific community. I am hesitating to register for US meetings due to the unpredictable situation. Others who feel the same?
