It has now stopped in Cambodia — 40 hours — and Laos — 44 hours.
If it keeps following the route it did for ICE last month, there will be one more stop in Vietnam.

If deported, she could face arrest over her opposition to the war in Ukraine.

Stop calling it deporting, so MAYBE more Americans will get it. "Deporting" is sending someone back, after due process, to the country they came from, where they arrive a free person. This is human trafficking to a foreign torture prison for the rest of their lives. GET THE LANGUAGE RIGHT.
