Dr. Lisa Anderson, 58, was born in Pennsylvania and is a U.S. citizen.

A doctor born in the United States says she received an email from federal immigration authorities demanding that she leave the country immediately.

Lisa Anderson, a physician from Cromwell, Connecticut, told NBC Connecticut on Wednesday that she recently received a letter from the Department of Homeland Security telling her, “It is time for you to leave the United States."

Immigration authorities have been pushing noncitizens to leave of their own volition, or “self-deport,” as the number of deportations remains at similar levels to last year.

    The famous quote about Nazis, “First they came for…” is being realized at intense pacing.

    Fuck fascists and their garbage Nazi AI injection into government systems. All Nazis are garbage and the exception to the rule about acceptance and inclusion. GTFO!

          It’s just my opinion and I don’t advocate violence, but for me, “due process For Nazis”=pulling back the hammer.

              Sorry for late response. Not what I am saying at all. Everybody gets due process. If you want to exempt Nazis, then we have to rely on your judgement of who is a Nazi. No thanks. That’s like relying on the Trump administration to determine who is in MS-13 and not have to prove it.

              Castration for pedophiles without trial! Uh, what if when you look more closely at the case, the evidence that the suspect was a pedophile falls apart? Just because the crime is heinous doesn’t mean the suspect is guilty.

                You’re not wrong. If being a Nazi is a death sentence, then you better have a good definition of Nazi and you should prove your case. That said, if you are Nazi-adjacent and throwing up HH or sending people to death camps, you’re telling on yourself and fuck any technicality. You and I can recognize evil that the law can’t. And I’m kinda okay with that.

                When a bunch of Nazis start getting killed, I’ll start looking closer. But to date, no Nazis have gotten killed in about 75 years for just being a Nazi, and that number is far, far too low.

                I respect your point of view and the world needs people less biased than me. But my opinion isn’t changing.

      The difference between today’s Republican Party and the Nazi Party is just temporal and geographical. Same ethics.
