The U.S. deported 50 people to Ukraine this week, a Ukrainian border official said on Tuesday, in what appears to be the single largest such deportation from the U.S. since the country has been at war with Russia.
The flight landed near the Polish border in the early hours on Monday. Since Russia’s invasion in 2022, Immigration and Customs Enforcement has deported 105 Ukrainians in total, with 13 in the last quarter of 2024, according to the latest data available in ICE’s publicly available tracker.
The Trump administration originally wanted to send 80 people on the flight, according to Olha Stefanishyna, Ukraine’s ambassador to the United States. That original list also included at least one person that Ukraine had previously been unable to claim as a citizen of the country.
I’m surprised they deported white people
They’re rolling back the definition of white. The Polish, Italians, and Irish, in that order, are next.
Well, my family immigrated on a coffin ship from Ireland. So…yes. Please. Deport me to the old country.
Unfortunately, I am mostly English and German. So, I probably won’t be deported there, or any decent country. Although the US has had some anti-German sentiments, Trump himself is German. So, they probably won’t reemerge. They wouldn’t dare touching the English, that’d be too much friendly fire. If anything, I’ll just get shot.
Bingo. Daddy Miller is saying they have to hit 3000 deportations a day or something. Means that you gotta redefine a lot of people as unacceptable - Polish, Italians, Irish, Slavs, Spaniards, Catholics…
Well, I don’t know about Catholics this time around, they make up a big chunk of the movement. Although, they don’t seem to like the WOKE MARXIST POPE, so, maybe.
I’m sure it was to look good for Daddy Putin
Immigration lawyers have raised concerns that those deported to Ukraine could be conscripted to fight in the war.
They should be. This isn’t an optional or unjust war for Ukraine to fight. Every capable man should be returned so they can fight.
Nobody owes any state their life. The only people that do are the ones that decided they want to lead those states. Conscription is technically slavery.
Extremely easy for you to say when you’re not the one that has to die so your rulers don’t lose their territory.
