"Even after many months of warning that a vengeful Trump 47 would attempt to govern this way, we still cannot believe it can happen here, in the United States of America. Call this fascism, but remarkably, that particular F-word has lost its sting in the sheer exhaustion of the decade since our strongman ruler descended on that golden escalator at Trump Tower. What is happening to Ozturk is state-sponsored terrorism."

"What’s happening right now in broad daylight, on our formerly free sidewalks, endangers every one of us. Until we can again walk those streets without fearing masked secret police from our own government, no one is safe."

"There are Americans cheering for these unjust deportations because they’ve been convinced by Trump’s dehumanizing, demonizing verbiage that immigrants are not deserving of humane treatment. But we can be sure this is not the end—this is just the beginning of this fascist regime’s terror campaign aimed at deterring refugees, savoring cruelty and silencing dissent."

"We know they’re lusting to widen their net against perceived enemies.

That was on full display in broad daylight Tuesday in Boston when masked federal agents in hoodies stopped and handcuffed a Tufts University doctoral student and Fulbright scholar. Rumeysa Ozturk, a Turkish national and Muslim wearing a hijab, was put into an unmarked car and shipped off to a detention center in Louisiana, just as Columbia student Mahmoud Kahlil was earlier this month."

"A Harvard scientist who fled Russia because she opposed the war in Ukraine is facing deportation back to the land of Vladimir Putin, her friends claim.

Kseniia Petrova, a bioinformatician at the Kirschner Lab at Harvard Medical School, was detained at the U.S. border on February 16 while returning from France and had her visa revoked, according to her friend Cora Anderson."

At this point any jilted lover, disgruntled neighbor, grant competitor can claim participation at a protest be it Tesla or genocide in GAZA and Greencard holder or any other valid visa can be revoked snip like that and start a journey of fear and terror through weeks of detention.

This is lawlessness.

Let alone that even lawful participation in protest or writing an op-ed will get you dehumanized, without warning, without due process.

The US is not safe for non-citizens. Period!

300 victims with valid visas daily find themselves in the crosshairs of ICE.
