In reply to the discussion: US judge rules Mahmoud Khalil can be deported for his views [View all]slightlv
(5,403 posts)10. Sounds to me as if
the republicans have jumped on the trump revenge band wagon. Everything we protested for and against in the 60's and 70's, when people like nixon, poppa bush, cheney, and others were making no effort to hide the fact that they hated the damned hippies, is on the chopping block. That includes free thought and creativity. That includes freedom, itself. Hell, it even means recreational sex! These evil basta*ds have saved up decades of hate until they could release it under the "guise of law." They just had to wait for the correct patsy to lead them. and along came trump... the pastiest patsy that ever pastied!

Unless and until the SCOTUS overrules Judge Jamee Comans, we are all Mahmoud Khalil now.

Like I said: Late sixties. I think '71 was still in the late sixties, it's all a bit blurry.
