The Left really wants Americans to believe the Trump Administration is skulking around and snatching various people out of their homes or off their airplanes and deporting them. The latest example is a Professor from Brown University.
The Alex Nowrasteh (@AlexNowrasteh) ~ Dr. Rasha Alawieh is a Lebanese-born H-1B visa holder, kidney transplant specialist, and professor at Brown University’s medical school.
Customs detained her when she flew back from a trip, held her for 36 hours, and sent back to Lebanon in likely defiance of a court order.
Wow! This seems crazy! This Doctor seems just like the kind of immigrant we would want in our country. Why in the world are we deporting such a learned professional?
Christina Pushaw (@ChristinaPushaw) ~ Typical case of the media leaving out key information to spin a narrative. She didn't just go to Lebanon to "visit relatives." She also told CBP agents that while visiting Lebanon, she attended the funeral of Hezbollah leader Hassan Nasrallah, because she supported him.
Christina Pushaw (@ChristinaPushaw) ~ She's a Lebanese citizen and can support whoever she wants in her home country.... But there's no reason the USA should be obligated to accept foreign nationals who tell our immigration officials all about their support for Hezbollah. Being a doctor is irrelevant to this.
Christina Pushaw (@ChristinaPushaw) ~ This isn't about one individual immigration case. It's about whether the USA is allowed to be a sovereign nation and enforce any standards or rules whatsoever regarding the control of our borders and whom we allow into our country.
Newsflash: Americans have the right to control our borders.
The Shredneck Militia (@Shredneckistani) ~ She can do kidney transplants in Lebanon. Plenty of work to do there!
StopAntisemitism (@StopAntisemites) ~ Great news - Brown professor and kidney transplant doctor Rasha Alawieh has been deported back to Lebanon over her Hezbollah affiliation. U.S. Customs and Border Protection found photos of support for Ayatollah Khamenei & Hassan Nasrallah on her phone at Boston’s Logan Airport. After being questioned, she admitted attending Nasrallah’s funeral. Good riddance!
Chaim Poupko (@cpoupko) ~ NPR reported today on Up First on this case and left out the reasons why she was deported. Very misleading without all the facts. @toviasmithnpr, why did you give an incomplete report?

NPR hid part of the story? That's so shocking! Not!
Kenneth Weinstein (@KenWeinstein) ~ “Innocent” Brown University nephrologist turns out to be Hezbollah member who went to Nasrallah’s funeral. Should never have been admitted to the US in the first place.
This is another deportation to celebrate.

WH Needs Just 1 Pic to Respond to DHS Post About Deported Brown U. Prof and Hezbollah Superfan

The Department of Homeland Security made the announcement today:
Homeland Security (@DHSgov) ~ Last month, Rasha Alawieh traveled to Beirut, Lebanon, to attend the funeral of Hassan Nasrallah— a brutal terrorist who led Hezbollah, responsible for killing hundreds of Americans over a four-decade terror spree. Alawieh openly admitted to this to CBP officers, as well as her support of Nasrallah.
A visa is a privilege not a right—glorifying and supporting terrorists who kill Americans is grounds for visa issuance to be denied. This is commonsense security.
"Commonsense security" is something the Biden administration was firmly against, hence their "America Last" policies.
Being in the U.S. is a privilege and she blew it, all while finding out the hard way that the people who coddle that kind of thing are no longer in charge.
The White House account didn't even need to use any words to respond to the latest deportation:
The White House (@WhiteHouse) ~
Heh heh heh heh heh ... BYE BYE, BITCH!
AJ Thomas (@AJ__Thomas) ~ My God the social media team at the White House is just fantastic.
EducatëdHillbilly™ (@RobProvince) ~ ARE YOU NOT ENTERTAINED?!
The essential American soul is hard, isolate, stoic, and a killer. It has never yet melted. ~ D.H. Lawrence
