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.

Why would you do the via email and not an official letter? People see it as spam or it might be the wrong email adres. Fucking amateurs.

[–] [email protected] 12 points 3 days ago

Of course sending this letter to an American citizen in the first place is bad to begin with.

If I received a message like this, I would buy a plane ticket to a safe country and would apply for asylum immediately, and I would use the letter as a basis for the asylum application. It seems like a really strong basis for the application.

Define safe here, the only places I can think are Australia or New Zealand. The rest of the world is heavily messed up and falling head over hills for right wing sirens.

[–] [email protected] 14 points 3 days ago (1 children)

Australian here, we aren't always fantastic either. NZ seems good, but they've had some weird shit going on from time to time as well. I'd probably go with them though.

Which one has the giant spiders the size of your head? I choose the other place.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 3 days ago (1 children)

I dunno, those giant spiders might prove a good deterrent should the likes of the not so dapper Don decide to come take the place by force.

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

So long as they don’t put flies in my ice cream, I think we can forge a lasting peace with the spiders

[–] [email protected] 3 points 3 days ago (2 children)

Both, but the ones in NZ aren't poisonous, at least.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 3 days ago (1 children)

So you are alive when they start to eat you....

So the two safest places left on earth also both have giant ass spiders where half will kill your ass and the other half will just traumatize you. Got it 🫠

I wonder what her political views are?

[–] [email protected] 30 points 4 days ago

It is time for you to leave the United States.

Well, considering the political climate I can't really argue with that.
