    Marco Rubio wrote that Mohsen Mahdawi, a green-card holder who was detained at a citizenship appointment in Vermont, should be deported because his activism threatens foreign policy goals.

    This guy must be an MLK tier orator if giving some speeches, with practically no reporting by the press, is enough to threaten the foreign policy goals of the (arguably) most powerful nation on the planet.

        It’s the second namely because the US isnt a nation, it’s a bunch of nations who fucking hate each other pretending to be a single nation. This frankly stupid way of having an imperial identity means that the fucking second it starts to crack on a large scale it will probably fall apart rather quickly.
