And yet US citizens are still being abducted, killed, disappeared, and sent off to random countries. But sure, let's all cheer about them removing his name from the Kennedy building lmao. What a joke.

(All in the name of immigration control! If only those us citizens had just sued the government I'm sure they'd still be alive!)

All fair points, but the person in question is an American native born citizen, so the ICE have no power here.

Also, US Citizens have sued and have shut down immigration detention facilities including the largest "Alligator Alcatraz".

Except that ice has been detaining and killing native born Americans? There has been so many articles about keeping American born citizens in horrible conditions, and then dropping them off in the middle of nowhere in the middle of the night during freezing cold nights. Would you like some? Or are you just going to say "That's okay, because technically they're abiding the courts"

I did not know that about alligator alcatraz, that is actually very nice to hear about. It wasn't brought down because of who they were housing there, but that is besides the point.

No US Citzen has ever been killed after being held in detention by ICE.

The only native born citizens that ICE has killed (undet this admin at least) to my knowledge were Renee Good, which later led to nationwide protests and a handful of riots, and Ruben Ray Martinez. Both were fatally shot while in moving vehicles.

The man who murdered Renee Good is looking at a murder trial, but Texas grand jury has rejected indictments for Ruben's murderer (for now).

None of this has anything to do with an Olympic Athlete touching paint. Even in a hundred years the USA will never be comparable to the atrocities regularly performed by North Korea.

Quite a few actually have been, they've just all been the wrong shade of white. Here's arrests specifically https://www.opb.org/article/2025/10/16/immigration-ice-arrests-propublica-white-house-deportation-immigrants-sweep/ , and the next time I see another article about an American citizen being dropped off somewhere to die, I'll be sure to respond to you with it.

Your article contains the word died, death, or killed exactly 0 times, so you're just verifiably full of shit.
