She Stepped Onto a Sidewalk in Boston — and Vanished Into Trump’s Shadow State
Masked ICE agents are now snatching dissidents off the streets like a scene from Stalin's Russia. This isn't speculative fiction. It's happening right now, in America…
This is how it begins.
Tuesday night, Tufts University PhD student Rumeysa Ozturk was going out to a restaurant to meet friends when masked federal ICE agents dressed in street clothes seized her off a public sidewalk and disappeared her. Her apparent crime was co-authoring an op-ed critical of Trump and Netanyahu.
Where is she now? At first, nobody knew. As her attorney told The New York Times:
"We are unaware of her whereabouts and have not been able to contact her."
Then it was revealed last night — as the video of her kidnapping went viral — that she's been transported to a violent ICE facility in Louisiana. Yeah, that place. Without any legal due process that anybody can identify.
