Email to Massachusetts lawyer warned her to ‘depart the US immediately’ even though removing US citizens is illegal
A Massachusetts immigration lawyer who is a US-born American citizen is speaking out after she received an email from Trump administration immigration authorities telling her she needed to leave the country.
Nicole Micheroni described receiving an email on 11 April – and that its heading was “notice of termination of parole”.
“It is time for you to leave the United States,” the email read. “If you do not depart the United States immediately you will be subject to potential law enforcement actions that will result in your removal from the United States.”
Micheroni told NBC Boston: “At first I thought it was for a client, but I looked really closely and the only name on the email was mine.
It doesn’t have to be violent, but it has to be direct. You want to “deport” US citizens? You’ll need someone to drive the bus full of people to the airport, someone from the airport to open the gate, someone else to fuel the plane, a mechanic to sign off on the plane, two pilots to fly the plane, and at least three separate air traffic controllers just to clear the plane out of US airspace. It just takes one of those people to say no.
47% of Americans today APPROVE of what Trump is doing. You really think he’s going to have a hard time finding a couple thousand people to do his most heinous stuff? You’re going to convince people to say no?
Be real.
