Trump has ICE hunting down Russian dissidents so he can dispatch them back to Russia as little gifts for Putin. A Russian dissident activist was just issued a sentence of six years in a penal colony on absurd charges of “justifying terrorism.” That happened because we deported him back to Russia.

He Fled a Dictatorship. We Sent Him Back.
Russian activist Leonid Melekhin sought refuge in America. His reward was a one-way trip to a penal colony.

This Film often has the piss taken out of it for being a rather sedentary piece about 2 people just talking a lot — BUT — it has one of the most brilliantly prescient monologues imho. MY DINNER WITH ANDRE (1981) Have a listen.

these are our pianos, not theirs! I know this stuff can feel secondary with all of the immediate pain this admin causes, but in the face of such personalism, it also feels important to assert the democratic principle that these cultural inheritances don't belong to the president, they belong to us
