BREAKING: ICE Arrests Wife and Children of Boulder Firebombing Suspect

“I’m being told the family is being processed for expedited removal, which allows rapid deportation without a hearing before an immigration court/judge,” he wrote on X.

If some groups don't get hearings, there's no way to prove you're not in that group.

Correct. If anyone can be denied due process, then anyone can be denied due process.
- Ted Cruz and Elon Musk are immigrants, are they not?

This story is fucking wild. They cancelled the visa and then immediately arrested them. Not deported, not even given time to buy a ticket out of the country. Just declared illegal and put in prison for something a relative did.

Nobody remembers this, but in the run up to the election, I was telling all the "Genocide Joe" folks that if Trump gets elected, he will not only advance the genocide in Gaza, he will bring the worst Israeli policies here...
Yeah... about that...

"the IDF started employing a tactic of surrounding such houses, calling on the occupants (civilian and militant) to exit, and demolishing the house on top of the militants that do not surrender. This tactic, called nohal sir lachatz (Hebrew: נוהל סיר לחץ, lit. 'pressure pot'), is now used whenever feasible (i.e., non-multi rise building that is separated from other houses)."
tl;dr - When Israel identifies a suicide bomber, they surround the house of that persons family and bulldoze it to the ground.
- How odd that you want to blame all this on the folks who won't support genocide. Sounds like the cognitive dissonance of someone with a guilty conscience.

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sippenhaft

Sippenhaft or Sippenhaftung is a German term for the idea that a family or clan shares the responsibility for a crime or act committed by one of its members, justifying collective punishment. (...) It was adopted by Nazi Germany to justify the punishment of kin (relatives, spouse) for the offence of a family member.

add to the list of parallels to Germany in the 30's: (1) RFK implementing our own version of Aktion 74 (nazis ''forced euthanasia" of 'undesirables' including the disabled and sickly; the US version simply removes healthcare and obfuscates medical science). (2) The German 'Law of preventing overcrowding of universities' which sought to remove all undesirables from the higher education system - focused on Jewish people but also foreigners in general, and removal of those not party-aligned; The US version is starting by banning Harvard from enrolling foreign students and forcing schools to make lists of 'suspect' students, mainly Chinese students and pro-Palestine students
- Apologies for nit-picking, but it's Aktion T4

But does he have citizenship, does his wife / children? No real details here.

That's the fun part. No due process means no answers to those questions or any other details are needed anymore. Detention is now arbitrary, deportation is arbitrary, and crime is arbitrary. If you're not either appalled or terrified or both, you're not paying attention.

The whole attack does just seem a little off. He planned for a year and wanted to "kill them all" and chose to use fire as a weapon? Not a car? Not a bomb? Not an illegally acquired gun?
And his target is a kind of innocuous group who are kinda Zionist but not clearly so, who just happens to have an 88 year old Holocaust survivor among their number? These people may have even been publicly opposed to continued war.
It just seems like a lot of time to plan an attack that wasn't very effective against a group that doesn't make a very effective statement, by a person almost tailor made to reinforce right-wing talking points. I dunno about active deal-making, but I could definitely believe he was targeted and groomed by someone intending to use him for political purposes.
But he could also just be a moron who spent a year plotting a dumb attack.

I wouldn’t be surprised if the wife and children lose their lives wherever they’re deported.

Or just get killed here with a fabricated story of their deportation.
