Afghan man gets a VISA to the US after assisting the US army in Afghanistan as an interpreter.

Now, without a warrant, Trump's ICE goons have arrested him and put him in detention to get him deported to meet their deportation quotas.

That is your reward for being an ally of the US.

@randahl If he learned history, he'd know that the US always throws "allies" under the bus once they used them.

I feel like the VA could have some words here. (I don't rely on it but I've heard bad things)
Edit: I'm pointing to a pattern on the US's part, not saying veterans have it worse that a person likely being sent to die

@randahl Every ICE agent better watch out. They are complicit; and they will end up in prison or being deported. They need to think about what they are doing.

@randahl

there was a sad piece from Jon Oliver years ago on the risks to be a US ally

https://youtu.be/_Z_CNYuNxz0?t=667

I watched it years ago, and can still remember because how painful it was and changed my view forever on US.

Now I understand Kissinger's "It may be dangerous to be America's enemy, but to be America's friend is fatal.”
