An Irish woman who has lived legally in the US for four decades has been detained by immigration officials for the last week because of a criminal record dating back almost 20 years.
Cliona Ward, 54, was detained at San Francisco airport on 21 April after returning from Ireland to visit her sick father and is being held at an Immigration and Customs Enforcement (Ice) facility in Tacoma, Washington.
Ward holds a green card but has convictions for drug possession from 2007 and 2008, which she believed had been expunged, her family said.
Despite the rise of anti-semitism, I actually think you guys might survive this one. I’m worried about the Italians, who only recently got their white status tentatively approved
Nah, I’d bet a sly Italian person slipping something about “the mob/mafia” in conversation with the maga morons would have maga rethinking antagonizing Italians.
Plus, my wife has literal family ties to the mob (she’s part Sicilian)
Looking at the neo nazi groups rising in popularity makes me think otherwise
