He was on like day 30 of a 90-day visa and was heading to his scheduled flight out of the country. Afaik, they had no reason to pick him up, they just like sitting around in the air conditioning to pick people up at airports and courthouses instead of chasing them across fields or something more exercise-y like that.
No idea. He entered on an Italian passport (he has dual Italian-Senegalese citizenship, and they referred to him as “Seringe Khabane Lame, 25, a citizen of Italy” in a press release), so he should have up to 90 days in the US without a problem.
To me, it feels like some ICE thug trying to meet his quota while doing the minimum amount of work.
It’s kinda like Homer Simpson and the creepy shopkeeper:
“He ‘deported’ a guy for no valid reason, probably because it was easy and he’s a lazy amoral fuck who knows the fascists in charge are just looking at AI summaries and don’t really give a shit who gets deported or how”
“That’s bad”
“But the guy was leaving anyway and avoided a deportation order that would cause him problems later, and ICE spending its time on this might’ve meant one less ‘real’ deportation instead”
“That’s good”
“But the media coverage of deporting a famous person arbitrarily with impunity helps sow fear of the regime, which is what it wants”
Yeah. Part of Trump’s problem with deportation is that he is throwing away the law to get numbers up because the Biden administration deported a lot more people while adhering to the law.
Trump is trying to use immigration as a reason to set aside habeus corpus, but even then his administration is really bad at deportation.
Isn’t it because the -frothing at the mouth- “influencer” bo loudon ‘declared’ Khaby Lame overstayed his visa already and must be arrested so bo notified the nazi’s, err regime, like a proper collaborator should?

If he was on day 30 of 90 why was ICE saying he “overstayed”? Is this some kind of technicality not mentioned or is ICE straight up lying (as usual)?
Fascist Gustapo doing fascist gustapo things
See you’d make a good reporter. Those are the right questions.
Just not a good corporate news reporter. As we see.

Because he’s black.

I have no idea who Bo Loudon is, and I believe my life is richer for it.
I only heard the name in relation to this case… Read stuff about the person but have no interest to check it out.
Edit: Skimming. Posted entirely wrong takeaway.
New takeaway? Just being bullies.

Not the case here. The article has the details.
He’s not a violent criminal, of course that’s who the authorities would choose to target.
