Last month, I brought you the unfortunate story of Danish immigrant Kasper Eriksen. Up until April of this year, he was living the conservative dream. After 16 years in the United States he was working in rural Mississippi as a welding foreman, had four children with another on the way, was constructing a family home with his own hands, had no criminal record, was a proud online MAGA devotee, and was on the cusp of receiving full American citizenship.
But when he arrived for what he assumed would be his final meeting to formalize his naturalization, he didn’t realize he was walking into a nightmare. His ashen-faced case manager told him he’d missed filling out a crucial form ten years ago and would now be arrested and processed just like any other illegal immigrant.
