Dr. Lisa Anderson, 58, was born in Pennsylvania and is a U.S. citizen.
A doctor born in the United States says she received an email from federal immigration authorities demanding that she leave the country immediately.
Lisa Anderson, a physician from Cromwell, Connecticut, told NBC Connecticut on Wednesday that she recently received a letter from the Department of Homeland Security telling her, “It is time for you to leave the United States."
Immigration authorities have been pushing noncitizens to leave of their own volition, or “self-deport,” as the number of deportations remains at similar levels to last year.
I would assume it’s a spam email and delete it. Are they really deporting people over email? Seems more like a postal letter kind of thing.
This is just the ammunition they’ll use when they put a bag over her head and send her to El Salvador.
“We told her she had 7 days to deport. She’s an immigrant with no due process. She didn’t listen. She’s now in CECOT. No, we can’t and/or won’t get her back, even if we’re ordered to do so.”
It’s blatant at this point.
Yep.
There’s a quote from her in the article pointing out the wording is scary for someone it’s “actually” meant for.
I think she doesn’t quite get yet that it was indeed “meant” for her, and that her citizenship doesn’t matter like she expects it to.
Cool. So when people come abduct me, I’ll shoot until I’m free or in an American court to actually have a chance to speak for my freedom.
Way to play it Nazis. I have no recourse but to shoot on sight.
If they can use a ‘feared for my life and safety’ argument, then so can I.
This is exactly what will need to happen. Eventually citizens will have to draw weapons on ICE and tell them to leave, or fire upon them. It is infinitely better to risk being arrested and have that day in court than be vanished while the nazi administration refuses court orders to return you to the US. That is 100% self defense imo.
If I have to die, I want it to be in a Ruby Ridge style siege
Giving them a warning will get you killed.
How the fuck are they getting email addresses? This is rife for abuse but I suppose that’s the point.
This part is chilling:
There was a news report of another citizen who carried their passport but ICE confiscated it saying it was fake.
Do you think a brown person (regardless of where they were born) is capable of such a cavalier attitude in that situation? Check your privilege.
