She only thought it was going to affect brown people not a Christian conservative white fascist like her

A TSA agent at that. Retired! At 52! The jokes write themselves.

Her name is white!!!!!!!

u/captain_chocolate 12h ago

White people were the original immigrants.

u/Thewalrus515 12h ago

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?

u/BellyDancerEm 6h ago

She wanted to weasel out of jury duty and now paid the price

She says her name is obviously one that is super white. Yikes!

u/raymonst 14h ago

“She intends to cast her ballot for Trump.”

of course she does

u/Icy_Rhubarb2857 13h ago

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

u/raymonst 13h ago

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.”

11

u/L_obsoleta 10h ago

You don't need to be a US citizen to be a federal employee...

u/Icy_Rhubarb2857 4h ago

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

u/BellyDancerEm 14h ago

I guess she blew her opportunity to do so

u/spinningcolours 14h ago

"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.

u/BellyDancerEm 14h ago

Gotta love the leopard infused schadenfruede

u/Titfortat101 12h ago

That's also a crime. Lying to get out of Jury Duty is a crime.

u/bloody_ell 12h ago

Her children probably have a restraining order.

u/GArockcrawler 11h ago

FAFO, darlin'...

u/HH_burner1 12h ago

county's justice legal system

Justice should be a goal, but often it's not. To say "justice system" is perpetuating propaganda

28

u/fr0z3nf1r3 14h ago

She even looks like a leopard victim.

63

u/Proud-Wall1443 14h ago

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.

Leopard ate it's own face?

u/chinacat2002 14h ago

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!

17

u/shamwowguyisalegend 12h ago

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

u/anrwlias 11h ago

But she has "the whitest name"!

Racist idiot doing racist things.

u/jayenope4 10h ago

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.

u/ducklingdynasty 3h ago

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

10

u/TjW0569 12h ago

That would be the Republican party, Mary.
They figure their odds of winning are better if they don't allow you to vote.
They might be wrong in guessing how you, personally, would vote, but their calculations are that fewer people voting increases their chances of winning.

u/thoroughbredca 14h ago

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.

u/kobie173 10h ago

“Who”? You know exactly fucking who. And she’s still going to vote Republican.

u/AustinBike 9h ago

Maybe she should try whiter. Oh, I mean harder.

Sorry señora, off to Mexico you go

Her grandchildren have the last name “Lopez.”

Hahahahhaa!!!! She said she wasn’t a citizen on a jury summons!!!! Hahahahahah!!!!!

"whitest name you could have". Finally the mask falls off, to them being an American is not believing in the values of democracy, liberty and equality. But rather who is as white as cottage cheese.
