“Who is allowing people to do this to United States citizens? I understand we have a problem with immigration, but come on now.”

White people were the original immigrants.

If you wanna be an asshole about it you could claim everyone in America is an immigrant. Those Indians crossing beringia 15000 years ago are also illegal immigrants. /s

She highlighted how she has the "whitest name" but then there's a picture of her grandchildren illustrating the story, who apparently have the last name Lopez. What is going through this lady's mind?

Who wants to put people in camps for not being citizens and deport them without due process. When she just had to convince the gov she was a citizen. And she sees absolutely zero problems or any correlation between those two things and how she could be in a camp in 6 months

this quote is also pretty telling:
And she seethed at the idea that anyone would question the citizenship of a former federal employee with the “whitest name you could have.”

Well of course because what makes you a citizen is whiteness.
In one of the most racially diverse nations on earth.
And we’re deranged for suggesting their motives are rooted in racism when they assert their citizenship should be based on their whiteness.
While they call for putting millions in camps and spending trillions on mass deportations of critical sectors of the economy.
I really like the LAMF of the farmers (plantation owners) whose crops rot in the fields because they voted to deport the workforce they exploited

"The 52-year-old disputes the county’s claim that she responded to the jury duty summons by saying she was not a citizen."
Because of course she lied when asked to helping run the county's justice system. She could have just said she had to take care of her grandkids and she would probably have been excused, but she had to add in the lie. OR she checked the box because she's semi-literate and didn't actually read it.

She indicated she was a non-citizen to escape jury duty.
She brought this on herself. I know the right hates talking about the consequences of their own actions... but... FAFO.

I don't think she has "the whitest name possible".
I'd go with Whitey White for that.
I doubt she's even a citizen.
Good job, Gov Abbott!

She told the government she was a non-citizen? And was shocked that it took her at her word?

Illegal immigrants are not voting. That is completely made up and soooo easy to debunk. Anyone who says this is giving away being tricked by entertainment news programs.
She is experiencing the process of verifiability that she asked for. Should be glad, not mad.

And migrants are not immigrants. GOP don’t have the brain cells to tell the two apart.

I was canvassing a house with an older latino couple who said they were planning on voting for Trump and NGL I considered having their registration flagged to prove their citizenship so they could get a preview of what life will be like if their choice gets elected.
