So, NAL, but...I'm pretty sure this violates both international law and US law.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 week ago

It absolutely does.

Your point?

If anyone's wondering, this is already illegal.

“Send US citizens to foreign concentration camps without due process”

Shahid Bolsen had an interesting idea. That if they are going to allow people to buy US citizenship for 5 milli that US citizens should be able to sell their for the same price. A person could use the bread to repatriate in another country. 🤔

I would do that so fucking fast

MAGA crowd have already found a way to defend this move. At this point I am sure, Trump can personally murder 100 kids every day on live TV and MAGA crowd will cheerdance for him. In fact if he complains that he has ran out of kids to murder, MAGA crowd will provide their own kids to kill and continue to cheer dance

But if you want to renounce your US citizenship you still have to jump through a shitton of red tape and pay $2,350 USD - and they STILL might deny the request to renounce.

If they are citizens it’s not “deportation”, it’s “abduction and human trafficking”

Rendition. Though when done to a prison in a third country that's not the immigrant's country of origin or citizenship it's still rendition.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 week ago

They could call it "sparkling deportation" /s

[–] [email protected] 34 points 1 week ago

It's that if they aren't citizens as well.

[–] [email protected] 10 points 1 week ago

But apparently it's all cool, and a total nothingburger when the government does it.

If there's no due process for anyone they grab, then they weren't planning to check if you were a citizen first anyway...

...if it identifies a pathway it can claim to be legal

Based on everything else they have done ignoring legality, I have very little faith they won't just start doing it anyways.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 week ago

they don't give a fuck about the law or the legality of whatever they get up to, we know that and they most definitely know that.
