FBI is becoming our 21st century Gestapo
- Marco Rubio wrote that Mohsen Mahdawi, a green-card holder who was detained at a citizenship appointment in Vermont, should be deported because his activism threatens foreign policy goals.
  This guy must be an MLK tier orator if giving some speeches, with practically no reporting by the press, is enough to threaten the foreign policy goals of the (arguably) most powerful nation on the planet.
  
  Either he is a great speaker with a powerful message .... or it is such a weak kneed nation that it can't possibly handle even the slightest criticism because it is so fragile and weak
- Becoming? Do you not know about the civil rights era? J. Edgar Hoover?
  
  They said 21st century, civil rights era was when the FBI was America's 20th century gestapo
I'm proud that they're targeting Boston so hard so early.
They know it's a liberal stronghold.
Get fucked.
