    I wonder what went down for Laos to accept her. I guess her parents are from there but she was born in Thailand. In the article they mention that Laos is generally uncooperative with accepting deportations, so I am curious to see how it was even justified. People are just going to be sent wherever now? Obviously it’s disgusting no matter where they’re sent, but she’s not even from there!

      This is what happened with the ethnic clensing under Eisenhower that Trump said was his blueprint. They regularly deported citizens, they deported people living in the US all their since early childhood, they deported people to places they didn’t speak the language or know the culture with no resources of any kind. A lot of people died afterwords. But this will make Trump and his cult giddy with delight, this is cruelty they want. They want to know people will be deported with next to no justification in terrible fashion

        I’m from a country that is still dealing with the consequences of this more than 50 years later. This isn’t damaging for presidency term, this is damaging for generations. Thankfully I no longer have bonds or investments in US, I genuinely see everything economically going downhill for a long time. Welcome to East Europe, America.

        Did you mean to reply to me or am I misunderstanding? She is in Laos and that is her final destination. Laos has citizenship tied to parental citizenship, so I conceptually understand that she has a valid claim to Laos citizenship, but she didn’t even have documentation from there. What is your comment getting at?
