On Wednesday, Cora Anderson, who works with the Russian scientist Kseniia Petrova, shared the news of Petrova’s detention on Facebook, saying the Russian scientist arrived at Boston Logan international airport on 16 February from a trip to France when she was stopped by US authorities.

According to Anderson, authorities revoked Petrova’s visa and told her that she was to be deported to Russia. In response, Petrova said that she feared political persecution and was instead sent by authorities to a detention facility, Anderson said.

        This is just the beginning before windows in America get suddenly slippier. The doomsday clock ticked to 89 only 8 days after inaugauration. Few months in and Trump has managed to piss off every major global force. I have no reason to believe King Trump will leave office without another fight, but this time, he knows he can get away with anything. GG.
