U.S. deports men from Asia and Latin America with criminal records to South Sudan after legal saga

The Trump administration said it deported a group of eight men convicted of serious crimes in the United States to the conflict-ridden African country of South Sudan, following a weeks-long legal saga that had kept the deportees in a military base in Djibouti for weeks.
Assistant Department of Homeland Security Secretary Tricia McLaughlin said the deportation flight carrying the deportees landed in South Sudan just before midnight EST on Friday. A photo provided by the department showed the deportees, with their hands and feet shackled, sitting inside an aircraft, guarded by U.S. service members.

Sending people to places they've never been is not "deportation." It's trafficking.
It's the wrong fucking continent.
i dunno, sending a bunch of people from somewhere else to a warzone seems kinda like a death sentence. It also seems like the premise of a reality show so this whole thing makes sense when viewed through the lens of a braindead idiot.
This is straight up human trafficking and murder. No mincing words about it; the monsters in this hellhole trafficked people in under horrific conditions less than 2.5 centuries ago. Now they’re exporting people to be enslaved, tortured, and extrajudicially executed.
Good. If you don't want to say where your home is, that's not a cheat code to not get deported. You'll get deported anyways, to a place that's much worse.
Piefed has so many cool features! It points out the trolls and collapses their comments if they get downvoted enough.
TO HELL WITH YOU DEMONSPAWN!

It's not deported but transported or sentenced.
Stop the sane washing of this administration's proclamations and crimes
Stop calling it fucking deportations. This is remanding people to gulags in other countries they are not from and as best as we know, have to way to ger out of or to be returned to the countries they came from. They have sentenced these people to death half way around the world because the US has become a fucking monster
Sir.
I hate living in a reality where a routine traffic stop could result in someone being disappeared and tortured while being completely legal.
Also, even if they were illegal, they don't deserve that. Especially without due process.
People aren't illegal. Even fucking Reagan wanted to legalize the people that were already here, living and working
