> In May 2023, Russian activist Evgeny Mashinin arrived in the U.S., where he planned to seek asylum after facing multiple arrests back home for participating in pro-democracy and anti-war protest rallies. He appeared to have a solid case: the European Court of Human Rights had even awarded him thousands of euros for his detentions. However, the U.S. judge hearing his case denied his request — and ordered his deportation back to Russia, where he was soon arrested yet again.
we can't deport rapists and serial thieves but we can deport democracy protestors apparently

@realcaseyrollins @tk apparently the judge is an absolute bongo with a 0% approval rate for asylum, and his actual words were just "you'll go to jail but you won't get killed" (Meduza) -

@icedquinn This is literally "Call us back when they kill you".
That judge would certainly make a hell of a career in Russia with attitude like that.
