NEED TO KNOW

Arpineh Masihi, a Trump supporter and Iranian immigrant, was targeted by ICE and taken from her home on June 30

Her husband, Arthu Sahakyan, told a local news station that even though he misses Masihi, he still supports the Trump administration's efforts to vet Iranian nationals

When asked whether he would take his MAGA flag off their house while his wife is detained, Sahakyan replied, "No, the flag stands"

Clearly he doesn't understand. We've been identifying terrorists and sleeper cells for decades without snatching first and asking questions later. This is a combination of Federal incompetence (not being able to reasonably identify threats before detainment) and cruelty (they want self-deportations and unrest that justifies more funding).

"No, I wasn't expecting the leopards to eat my face, but I'm sure it was for the greater good. I still support the leopards. Although, I will miss my face and I don't know what it did wrong, this is the wisdom of the leopards and it is not meant for me to know."

Imagine choosing Trump over your own wife, even if you hate her.

They think they’re following a super genius playing 4d chess. They’re following a pigeon with a bomb strapped to itself shitting on a chess board

If that were my husband, I'd be considering divorce. At least if I ever got out of the gulag.

I'd be considering going full Lorena Bobbitt.

You wouldn't want to go off half-cocked.

Ideally you'd catch warning signs before you ever got married to him. My guess is a lot of those who are detained who are married to Trump supporters also support the detention of immigrants and just never thought it would happen to them.

Man's thinking he is Lot, but he's not a lot by any metric.

[–] thedruid@lemmy.world 11 points 19 hours ago

That man is not a man or a husband. He's a fucking blow hard coward. Every maga is

[–] GuyFawkes@midwest.social 11 points 20 hours ago

Heartwarming story. Sounds like it happened to a very deserving couple. Maybe ICE can come back and reunite them in custody?

Cultist gonna (behave like they belong to a) cult

From the outside, it appears people like this have been trying to get rid of their spouses and this is a excellent scapegoat.

This guy listened to one too many Henny Youngman jokes and took them literally.

"Take my wife, please!"

Trump issues his thanks for supporting him by deporting you.

Free trip to Sudan, here we come!

[–] psud@aussie.zone 0 points 16 hours ago

What else could he do? If he tried to help her and burnt his Trump flag he'd be deported too
