One of the men goes for her phone. The other grabs at her hands. Ozturk screams. Shock and fear ripple through her voice. Two masked women join them, tugging at her backpack, peeling the straps from her shoulders. “I’m going somewhere, I need to call someone,” she pleads. “We’re the police. Relax,” one of the men says in response.

They surround her. Then, one by one, they pull their neck gaiters up to cover their faces. “You don’t look like police,” a voice off screen says. “Why are you hiding your faces?” The questions continue, but the figures don’t respond. Instead, they cuff Ozturk, cross the street, and put her in an unmarked SUV. She is gone.

    Lmao. Couple things: 1) relax, and 2) she wasn’t incarcerated; her visa was revoked. That doesn’t require due process, since they’re discretionary.

    Take it easy, man.

      Her visa was revoked for what? By what judge? Why was she detained? You claim she’s “wrong”. By whose standard? Trump? He’s the ultimate deciding force? What happens when you’re wrong? Can we revoke your citizenship?

        Rapid fire over here. Okay, here goes:

        • For being a Hamas supporter.
        • By no judge. Due process is not mandatory in this case.
        • She was detained because she’s a Hamas supporter.
        • By The standard designated to terrorist supporters.
        • Yes, Trump. He is our president after all. Commander in Chief and head of the executive branch
        • The policies put in place against terrorists and supporters thereof is the “ultimate deciding force.”
        • What happens if I’m wrong about what?
        • How are citizenships revoked? If there’s a way, and I meet those conditions, then yes.
