Like they give a f*ck about bedbugs

tidesoftime.bsky.social•5 days ago

Gee, then maybe they should release him, so he can go home and be with his pregnant wife. He poses zero threat to anyone. FFS what is this country coming to when we have a convicted felon in the Oval Office and innocent men being unjustly harassed for exercising their 1st Amendment right?

This is the Upside Down: Arrest 1st, then investigate in frantic attempt to comply with constitutional requirements justifying detention & deprivation of rights. He should sue the shit out of ICE agents personally.

katphxaz.bsky.social•4 days ago

This is such crap - totally skips blocks of time & why atty was ignored. Also, short term exposure to bed bugs is no different than long term exposure! In fact, it just spreads the bed bugs.
**A bunch of ICE excuses & time gaps make this declaration Useless.

Sounds like a real shithole country

gentlemencat.bsky.social•5 days ago

i’d lay money his own bed at home with his wife doesn’t have bedbugs…

ptpower.bsky.social•5 days ago

I was thinking the same thing... they wouldn't have to be concerned with such inconveniences if they weren't illegally detaining people.

“The fact that Louisiana is part of the 5th Circuit? Coincidence. Nothing to see her. Move along, citizen.”

cogenteur.bsky.social•5 days ago

Does the Court take this at face value? Based on recent series of shell games, I'd insist on sworn testimony from the alleged bedbugs.

sakibk.bsky.social•4 days ago

How many other detainees were on the same flight? Do you arrange special flights for each detainee, or was Khalil special? What made him special...

mdlp.bsky.social•4 days ago

I’d love to see them answer how often travel documents are prepared at 4am as well.. I have the sense there aren’t many third shift bureaucrats during the normal course of DHS business…

sunny88888.bsky.social•4 days ago

Yeah…right

ICE would like us to believe there’s nothing sinister about their stormtroopers being violent lawless Nazis in front of the whole world, operating completely without judicial sanction and with depraved indifference to human life.

mtnrider.bsky.social•4 days ago

I am calling BS on this!

mlkelly.bsky.social•5 days ago

I'm sure.

polittlecat.bsky.social•4 days ago

except they would tell his wife and lawyer where he was. That is what makes it sinister.

polittlecat.bsky.social•4 days ago

wouldn't tell his wife and lawyer.

angelenobob.bsky.social•5 days ago

Is that really the critical question??

legalcat.bsky.social•5 days ago

and they’re doing something about the bedbugs RIGHT

gentlemencat.bsky.social•5 days ago

for their sakes i would hope so. bedbugs dgaf who you are, detainer or detainee. that said i absolutely would wish a bedbug infestation on every single ICE agent and anyone who chooses to aid them…

gcprotogen.bsky.social•5 days ago

bedbugs are a feature for their facilities.

noamlaw.bsky.social•5 days ago

that would require them to give a shit about the humanity of the people in their care

jenniferholton7.bsky.social•5 days ago

So he's a terrorist, but we don't want him to get bed bugs like all the other detainees pending deportation that we keep in NJ.

dystopos.bsky.social•5 days ago

Also, he hasn’t been charged with anything that isn’t a right protected by the constitution.

sakibk.bsky.social•4 days ago

Hasn't been charged period

fargascollection.bsky.social•5 days ago

Because they care! That's all.

vlad-the-impala.bsky.social•5 days ago

Nothing sinister…

cakequeenbabe.bsky.social•4 days ago

HE hasn’t been charged and is being moved across states while fighting deportation under a rare policy provision—a tactic that disrupts his defense and isolates him…

weavingbeetle.bsky.social•4 days ago

So presumably they’ve moved all detainees from the facility that has bedbugs, correct? If not, and that facility is still operating, this rationale falls apart instantly and spectacularly.

laurahasdogs.bsky.social•4 days ago

And the 8th Amendment becomes a sword for the remaining prisoners.

kayofoz.bsky.social•4 days ago

I call Bullshit!

kapdoll.bsky.social•4 days ago

Bedbugs? Did they take him to a trump property? Nazi assholes.

risefromtheashes.bsky.social•4 days ago

Sure, Jan.

Fuck ICE stormtroopers. 🤬

mullinshere.bsky.social•5 days ago

Oh, that makes it all right then - NOT.

laurahasdogs.bsky.social•4 days ago

Or they could have just not arrested him without actually being able to charge him with a crime.

livialamblet.com•5 days ago

Yeah, right

biamaravilha.bsky.social•4 days ago

Que decisão acertada, amiga, pqp

flufferfreezone.bsky.social•4 days ago

Fucking liars. And they will remain so unless proven otherwise. I don't believe one damn word they say.

flufferfreezone.bsky.social•4 days ago

Sorry, I left out election-stealing scotus-seat-stealing unethical immoral toxic corrupt unAmerican traitorous fascist HYPOCRITE child-killing woman-hating Taliban-loving democracy-hating freedom-killing Nazi Commie Rethuglic**t whore trash.

niblik.bsky.social•4 days ago

…sure. Doing the things that are sinister and bad is not a sign that their INTENT is sinister or bad.

It just happens by accident. Who wouldn’t enjoy an involuntary multistate road trip with law enforcement officers intent on promoting a racial agenda?

mefcorv.bsky.social•5 days ago

You’d think this might be something they would know…in advance of arresting someone?
