That's not a deportation, that's a kidnapping and violation of the Mexican border.

Getting pretty close to the “and then they came for me…” part of the that poem.

I mean, the peaceful protestor getting abducted and moved to Luisiana wasn’t it?

[-] catloaf@lemm.ee 2 points 2 days ago

No, this is it. This is the end.

No, it can still get worse. Much worse.

Remember: The cruelty is the point.

The title is incorrect. The child is a U.S. citizen and was not deported. His brother, also a U.S. citizen, remains in the U.S. The parents were illegally in the country and they were deported. They chose to take their young son back with them.

Every day the orange one pretends to care about young soldiers in Russia and Ukraine dying while celebrating shit like this.

So, Europe, this is why we get frustrated over the whole "Americans, y'all aren't doing anything."

This happened at the border. In Texas. At a crossing. These fuckers are armed with automatic weapons, entrenched, and have surveillance up and down for several miles, surrounded by desert.

It would take so much organizing to pull something off just to shut down one of these. But it would still be damn near impossible because Texas itself is enormous and border control would easily rally support from Texan residents to prevent gathering long before a convoy reached the crossing.

Pretty sure nobody's been advocating for an armed takeover of a border control post
