“I can buy that badge from a fucking costume store,” says a witness to the “kidnapping” of Rumeysa Ozturk as she was on her way to break her Ramadan fast.
This will become much worse. We are just starting to see these human rights violations begin. If I had any advise to give, I would tell any foreign students in the United States right now, leave before they come for you. You can finish your degree program in a much safer country. For countries who send their children to the U.S. for education, warn them that students are subject to arrest for any mention of Palestine or Israel in any social media posts. Travel to the U.S. is now dangerous and they should proceed only with the utmost caution. This applies to tourists as well. The U.S. has now become a militarized police state.
This is sickening. What’s even more sickening are the Americans who approve this. Fascists every one of them approving a Fascist Government. If we ever get back to sanity, humanity and a Democratic government, these same Fascists will claim ignorance and will slink back to their shells providing camouflage of the people they have proven themselves to be “fascists at heart”. God have mercy.
I can clearly see how Germany worked as the Nazis were rising now. We all see it happening, but none of us are collectively finding a way to stop it...
If we're not a victim of AIPAC and other Israeli Lobby's controlling our Politicians, then our Politicians are doing just fine Supporting Israel themselves for this reason:
If AIPAC doesnt have control over Russia and China, I don’t see why they dont just side with the entire muslim World and Africa against Israel and the USA. Seems like it would be a good strategy for them given all the resources in the muslim World and Africa.
It's fair game now for Stasi agents of a compromised President to just kidnap people in an extrajudiciary manner and send them in whichever state happens to be weakest in governance for detention.
This is what America has become and degraded into, all for the sake of Israel.
Israel is paying for this deference- mega millions in campaign contributions to the duopoly. Trump is transactional and so does nothing unless he’s getting something worthwhile in return- and that’s money.
Who gives them the right to abduct people from any state and send them to a state that is closer to a third world country in governance? Where are the state's rights from federal overreach here?
It’s the same thing they were doing in the Iraq invasion and Afghanistan invasion.
So many innocent people were put into GITMO and then others were flown to countries that allowed torture.
A Canadian man did nothing, something like oh god I can’t remember. He was snatched and blindfolded, he hadn’t a clue what country he was in. They dug out dirt that his body could fit into but you couldn’t turn.
Oh yeah, he was snatched while deplaning on the slanted floor are as you get off the plane. This made us aware you’re not in the US anymore.
They snagged him there. Due to the fact there was an incorrect initial in the computer.
He was finally located and taken back to Canada. He had been gone for approximately one year.
Canada wanted him to give him some money so he could get his life back together. They gave him >$10,000.00
Who will be targeted after the administration normalizes the public to seeing the "disappearing" of the Palestinians or their advocates? People protesting Tesla? Seniors demonstrating against Doge's Social Security takeover? People who make comments online?
This is the twisted , deceitful world we live in . Musk can make a Nazi salute and he’s applauded , but Trump and his fellow Christian fanatics in government - like their genocidal counterparts in Israel - can kidnap and falsely imprison people simply for speaking out against Israel’s barbaric atrocities against the civilian population of Gaza , which has been carried out using American weapons of mass destruction (including genocidal 2000 lb bombs dropped on women and children) . I say boycott the USA (I’ve certainly made a pledge never to go to the USA) and bring these arrogant colonialists to their knees . For those in the USA , stand up to this fascism, don’t give in to these threats , intimidation and blackmail because if you do the bullies will become even stronger . The founding fathers of the USA will be turning in their graves knowing American leaders have become traitors and are betraying their founding principles .
The Founding Fathers were white supremacist misogynistic elitists who denied the vote to women, and non landowners, perpetuated the chattel slave trade because they believed Black and Brown people were subhuman and believed in the Manifest Destiny of the American Empire. I’d bet they’re celebrating what is becoming of the USA.
Show of power! Can you possibly imagine how much money was just spent on someone with no criminal history and no crime committed? There will be no meaningful charges. I volunteer at a food pantry and pick up food for them at Connecticut Foodshare which has had federal funding cuts and even though we have record numbers of people there is much less food!
Just watched coverage by Chris Hayes on MSNBC and found out she's a Fulbright Scholar from Turkey here on a student visa who has now also been 'disappeared' into the Louisiana ICE facility thousands of miles away because she made a humanitarian statement about the rights of Palestinian people and quoting James Baldwin.
US citizens, make no mistake that Trump has declared war in the most literal sense: on the Constitution and on you and me. If there is anything redeeming in this society, 100k people would converge en masse on LaSalle and free the political prisoners there by any means necessary. I'll celebrate the day every fascist becomes worm food.
By my count, this is at least the fourth abduction of foreign students who are in the US legally. I think there is also one female student who has been sent back to somewhere in Europe. These kidnappings have to stop!! It appears that any non-citizen who criticizes the horrendous genocide of Palestinians in Gaza and the West Bank risks deportation. What has our nation become? A militaristic, autocratic, repressive State! If I were younger, I would consider leaving this country.
Nazis have long been concerned about being silenced and not being able to express their conservative opinions So the diatribes go….being bullied, “thought police” But it’s not that they have been silenced it’s just that their opinions are often so outrageous that they are laughable eg Fox and Friends
So there is a Nazi attack on free speech If the Nazis don’t like what you say then it’s not free speech Complete HYPOCRISY
It’s not about free speech it’s about their protected speech….the Nazi free speech of propaganda
Networks should lose their FCC licenses Judges with differing opinions should be impeached Banning news organizations who don’t go along with the Nazi talking points Going after law firms that don’t favor the regime’s propaganda line Students with green cards who protest with differing opinions should be thrown out of the country because “they are agitators who don’t love our country” Universities should lose federal grant money if they dare speak out against the Nazi regime Take over the Kennedy Center for Continuing Arts to even control the art’s free speech and have only shows that are deemed “appropriate”
But billionaire/oligarchic Nazis protect social media such as X, Meta, and Tik Tok because it’s algorithmic, simply a machine that directs your attention It’s planned Nazi propaganda And it’s not free speech Billionaires are literally rewiring our thinking to solidify their power grab
This is what it looks like living in a dictatorship in the 21st century Fox channel is the only channel available and X will be the social media platform WAKE UP AMERICA
The latest Trump Club goings on sound very much like Nazi-German Secret State Police (= Gestapo) actions to me. If you all don’t watch out, you will have them install the same bs we’ve had over here from 1933 to 1945!

Is this America or Russia...People can just be disappeared now?
And what's with all this Masked BS? If you don't want to be known for that job...don't take the job.
I can clearly see how Germany worked as the Nazis were rising now. We all see it happening, but none of us are collectively finding a way to stop it...

Yeah, forgot Israel is worse than Russia.

This is more akin to an “Extraordinary Rendition.”
Yes it is. The story of Ravi Ragbir is very relevant to this:

This looks very intimidating. Why does it take six people to put one person in zaptraps behind their back? There was not resistance.
I'm guessing in part to keep bystanders or others who want to resist and protect the individual being kidnapped from having the power to do anything.

It's only Free Speech as long as it's in praise of Big Brother!
These stories!!! Omg. What has happened to our country?! This is a discusting display of illegal kidnapping. How horrifying. 🥺
What if a bystander was armed and shot these masked goons, then what?
What do the police know about this? If there were police nearby and a masked gang came to abduct someone what would they do?
The latest Trump Club goings on sound very much like Nazi-German Secret State Police (= Gestapo) actions to me. If you all don’t watch out, you will have them install the same bs we’ve had over here from 1933 to 1945!
Yes and he did tell Zelenski "
if you dont do what I say , you wont live much longer. Wow. what a tough man is he.
Ins is now trumps private gestapo
