Summary
Wisconsin resident Bradley Bartell voted for Trump’s promise to crack down on “criminal illegal immigrants,” but now his Peruvian wife Camila Muñoz has been detained by ICE.
Muñoz, from Peru, overstayed her visa but had applied for legal residency. On their way home from a honeymoon, immigration agents detained her at a Puerto Rico airport.
Despite no criminal record, she remains in a Louisiana detention center. Her case reflects ICE’s broadened enforcement that now includes documented immigrants.
Bartell, once supportive of stricter immigration policies, now questions the impact on families like his own.
Aren’t these people guys with guns who fantasize about fighting tyranny? Well this is your fucking chance to shine, sweetheart!
Damn, it’s almost enough to make you think every single Trump supporter is an ignorant idiot absolutely devoid of any concept of forethought.
Muñoz, from Peru, overstayed her visa but had applied for legal residency.
I have to assume this guy was aware of this. So if you vote to have “illegals” deported, how is this not exactly what you voted for?
They really don’t like having to think about things do they?
I wonder if he told at all her he votes for people that want her gone.
The overwhelming majority of ‘illegal’ residents are visa overstays.
Like Melania Trump! She overstayed her tourism visa, while also working while on a tourism visa.
Those damn leopards at it again.
Feel sorry for her. Maybe she’ll find a better partner.
I will never not be amazed at the hatred and stupidity at the heart of MAGA
Did you ever learn about say… The Jewish Holocaust? The Rwanandan Genocide? The Palestinian Genocide?
Hate can, and does, go very deep, and is very easy to tap for those who look to do so, for their own ends.
It’s almost as if being a racist douchebag is bad for everyone…
I wonder if she knew he was actively supporting the politics of people that hate her.
LOTS of immigrants are anti-immigrant once they think they’ve made it in safely. Makes them feel better about themselves I guess.
I’m gonna go with probably not.
At least over here in Finland there are several immigrants who are running for the communal elections through the anti-immigration party Perussuomalaiset. And they get voted by other immigrants. They are many. Remember, “many” does not mean the same as “most”.
She probably thought “I’m one of the good ones! I LOVE TRUMP! He will kick out those dirty Mexicanos!!!”
There are easier ways to get divorced… just saying
100% his fault for making his wife suffer in anyway in a detention center.
These clowns always pull up the ladder after they “get theirs.” Marry an immigrant and think you’re safe? Vote to get rid of the ones you don’t like via a Dictator. Dictators turn on their supporters sooner or later, for them it was sooner. Wait until he comes for the guns. He’s the only president that has said guns should be taken away.
E: Getting lots of gateway timeouts for .world, anyone else? I’m in the US.
The one bit that’s not being mentioned: they detained her from a flight from Puerto Rico, which is a US protectorate. Does that mean flights from other US states are now being examined by border and customs?
They always were.
If you are within 100 miles of an international port, which includes international airports, not just water ports, or border crossings, your rights are non-existent, and can be ignored by law enforcement at their discretion.
ICE is switching resources away from terrorism towards attacking anti-genocide protestors.
Anti-genocide protestors are terrorists. Didn’t you hear the president. Anyone he likes is an honorable patriot as long as he likes him. If he dislikes you, you’re now a terrorist and heading to Gitmo. /S
They’ve never really been focused on terrorism. It was always about going after brown people.
Apparently… yes…
This reads like the post Brexit articles. What do people expect to happen when they vote for something?
I didn’t think leopards would eat my face
“I’m a good person and this was only supposed to happen to bad people” - every Far-Right muppet when it turns out that the in-group is a lot smaller than they thought and they ain’t in it.
“And then they came for the libs joking about leopards, but there was no one left to speak up…”
People got too used to being able to cosplay as oppressed victims of the state despite decades of minor policy changes between Democrat or Republican administrations.
All Americans got to enjoy conjuring any abstract worldview they wanted with the freedom of knowing they can say what they want whenever they want, never feel repression and just go home and watch tv. Maga got to pretend they were actively oppressed by the state which let’s them justify supporting real state oppression towards people they don’t like.
I imagine a lot of maga dorks voted for this, expected performative moves but a mostly stable continuity of the American center. I don’t know if they’ll ever admit it but I bet they are going to regret this president keeping his promises when they are stripped of all of their rights and their safety nets. The time for hyperbolics and hysterics are over, fascism is here, they are going to get ground down with the rest.
Well, can’t say trump isn’t keeping my the promises he made when on campaign
Imagine being an immigrate and marrying a Trump supporter. Should we feel sorry for her? Because I feel no sympathy for him.
Imagine being an immigrate and marrying a Trump supporter.
Imagine being an immigrant and marrying a Trump. FIFY
People usually believe that politics is something that comes after personal relationships.
Which is a dumb belief.
“Love conquers all” lol no, you don’t live in a fucking Disney movie.
Certain political beliefs can and will do harm. Feelings will not protect you from harm. Choose your partner wisely.
Good. It sucks for her, but Trump voters don’t deserve to have happy lives.
What about biden voters? Lib genocide gets a pass?
Friend you’re on the wrong instance. .ml has a spot open for you, all you have to do is cry about “the libs” like a Trumper and you’re in.
Okay I’m jumping on this sword… When Israel attacked Palestinians, I was like yeah baby! 9-11? Now kiss my entire…but then we heard the US was helping and finally… Innocent people are being followed by drone and bombed…oh man, kiss my entire… WTF is the US doing? No, no! Not in our name! Why doesn’t Joe Bidden stop it? Totally wrong side of history. The only saving grace is that the world knows how powerful we are…but also we’re just dumb fucks and now with trump we’re also assholes. We’re both the most powerful nation in the world, but just too stupid to figure out who to hit.
As an example, Ukraine. Why didn’t we go and bomb Ukraine??? Under trump that’s a valid question. A sane person might wonder instead, where’s putin now and how can we deliver as many bombs as possible directly to him for him to keep and personally observed their functionality POV. Even now, we could do this. Just find the guy and drop some good stuff on him. A grand piano, an ACME anvil, anything, rocks. But ger him to “understand” our point of view about the things he is doing.
Of course he doesn’t, but we are talking about the Here and Now.
