Last week, Husband, Son and I went to an evening event at Nevada Museum of Art; "The Power of Stories: Remembering Japanese American Incarceration." I, being a Japanese-American, felt the need to attend especially considering the current climate, but I was quite surprised and pleased that all family members were interested. I was expecting it to be intensely sad and anger-inducing, but it was gentle, loving and bitter-sweet. This podcast episode was played: thisislovepodcast.com/episode-

I surely didn't intend to put anything positive into my remark. Putin has been a dictator or at least an autocrat for decades, murdering everybody who comes close to being any kind of competition. If it's Polonium, Novichok, a fall from a window or a slow death in a Siberian work camp, Putin has always had his ways of shutting up the opposition.
Donald Trump admires that. And that's the really worrisome part!

They were not DEPORTED. Deported means sending them back to their country of origin. These people were sent to a maximum security #prison in #ElSalvador, without any #DueProcess or any analysis as to whether they feared harm there.

Flying a person to a third country that they may never have been to, directly into a prison where they are going to be forced to do hard labor, is not a #deportation; it's something else entirely.
