The Trump administration said it deported a group of eight men convicted of serious crimes in the United States to the conflict-ridden African country of South Sudan, following a weeks-long legal saga that had kept the deportees in a military base in Djibouti for weeks.
Assistant Department of Homeland Security Secretary Tricia McLaughlin said the deportation flight carrying the deportees landed in South Sudan just before midnight EST on Friday. A photo provided by the department showed the deportees, with their hands and feet shackled, sitting inside an aircraft, guarded by U.S. service members.
We are ruled by fascists. Legacy media doesn’t seem to see it, or they are paid not to.
Sending people to places they’ve never been is not “deportation.” It’s trafficking.
It’s the wrong fucking continent.
i dunno, sending a bunch of people from somewhere else to a warzone seems kinda like a death sentence. It also seems like the premise of a reality show so this whole thing makes sense when viewed through the lens of a braindead idiot.
