Jonas Hubley is facing deportation if he doesn't leave the country by January 2. However, he is mentally, emotionally, physically and financially dependent on his family.
“You have barked up the wrong person’s tree. Do not mess with my kids because the gloves are off. Let’s go, because this is unjust. This is a lie because I didn’t just provide 23-24, I provided all demographics. I have pictures.”
Strong words! So, what's her plan to fight back?
That’s when Rebekah took to Facebook to write a letter to President Joe Biden in the voice of Jonas, stating everything they had done over the past 15 years. At the bottom of the post, she tagged local, state, and federal officials. Since that post on December 8, it has been shared more than a thousand times.
Immigration isn't a huge deal. It's a completely manageable concept that's held up as this bogeyman in rich countries like Canada, the US, and the UK. The people holding up the bogeyman benefit from a disenfranchised underclass that can't amass wealth or power due to the precarious nature of their existence in that rich country.
Exactly this. In my real life I do a lot of work with recent immigrants and when there is a reasonable system in place, there are very few issues. Having NO system for immigration is the root of the worst of the problems IMHO.
The US has an almost completely and entirely intentionally broken system for legal immigration, which is one of the biggest reasons for its problems with "illegal" immigration.
“You are not going to take my child,” Rebekah Hubley said. “This is the most ludacris thing I have ever heard in my entire life.”
Wow, seriously. I'm constantly surprised by how low USCIS can go. You'd think they'd want to roll out the red carpet considering the value immigrants can bring to this economy! Border towns complain about immigrants filling up their neighborhoods, but there are tons of area codes that would be happy to take them in. And besides, if you don't like your neighbors, then move bitch! People like this give southern hospitality a bad name, and a they should get back to fucking goats or whatever it is they were doing before the internet.
So good on you, Rebekah. Most people don't stand up for themselves, but you're doing some good shit.
