No matter what you think of Israel or the Palestinian situation, our Constitution gives you the right to express your opinion. Apparently, Donald Trump, his handler Stephen Miller and their underlings don’t care about the rights Trump took an oath to uphold.
This week, Turkish Ph.D. student Rumeysa Ozturk was arrested and abducted by ICE agents despite the fact that she’s legally in the U.S. under a student visa (unlike Elon Musk) and had committed no crime. The rationale, according to the Department of Homeland Security was that Ozturk “engaged in activities in support of Hamas, a foreign terrorist organization that relishes the killing of Americans,” PBS reported. It also noted, “The department did not provide evidence of that support.”
As John Amato put it, Ozturk’s abduction was “a horrific display of authoritarianism and fascism.” It probably earned our play-acting president an “atta boy” from his buddy Vladimir Putin.
