Reminder that Americans and their defenders in the CPC will tell you that she did something wrong
She was trying to apply for a renewal of her exiatin work permit and ICE complained that the letterhead on one of the documents she presented was wrong.
I don’t know that we have an accurate perspective on what the actual reasons were. Perhaps she’s telling the truth, perhaps she’s selecting truths that paint her actions in the best light.
But to me it doesn’t matter. She had a somewhat reasonable expectation of special treatment because we had been given special treatment before. We are surprised because it is new, this is why it’s being published as news.
The specifics of her mistake don’t matter because we all make mistakes.
So if I make a mistake I will be treated like I’d expect them to treat the mistake made by a Muslim person or a Haitian. And that isn’t a risk I’d willingly take, because I do make mistakes sometimes.
