Trump has turned the US into a lawless country.
*Green card application in process and work permit, married to US citizen
*Lived in US for 20 years, no criminal record
*In detention for five months with no charge, despite judge approving release
*He disputes ICE claim that he signed forms agreeing to deportation
And here is my story: ‘Absolute hell’: Irishman with valid US work permit held by Ice since September

Italians, your white card has been revoked. Stefani Germanotta is a perfidious latin

Nothing illustrates the absence of rule of law for the rich & powerful in the US better than the Epstein affair.
