One Trump voter issued a tear-filled video regretting his decision to vote for the president after his brother, who served with U.S. special forces, died while in Immigration and Customs Enforcement.
In a video posted to social media, Naseer Paktyawal tearfully recalled his brother’s service to the country and the moment that ICE “kidnapped” him in front of his son, Imrin. ABC News initially posted the video.
…
“I saw two cars unmarked. Seven, eight people jump out of those cars,” Paktyawal said. “One on the driver’s side, one on the back of his car, and grabbed him from his seat and put a handcuff on him.”
Mohammad Nazeer Paktyawal’s son, Imrin, was also featured in the video and recalled witnessing his father’s arrest. “I was standing there, and then they came and just take him,” the boy said.
Imrin added that he was “standing there” as the agents hauled his father away. “I was like, just don’t take him, please,” Imrin recalled.
According to Paktyawal, he later received a call from an ICE facility. “I thought they were going to release him back,” Imrin said.
“He said, ‘Are you, Naseer?’ That’s me,” Paktyawal said. “Your brother Mohamed Nasir Paktyawal passed away this morning and his body is laying down in a parking lot in the hospital.”
…
“My first vote was for this president, and I regret it, and I’m gonna regret it for the rest of my life,” he added. “Because of me, because of my voting, He got arrested, and he lost his life. And I’m never going to forgive myself for that.”
CNN reported that he was taken by ICE agents outside of his Dallas apartment and died less than a day after being in ICE custody. His family said that Mohammad had no known health conditions and had been seeking asylum in the U.S. since his arrival in 2021.
Oh no! Anyway…
I think most of the reactions here are sad. Yes, he voted for Trump, but he just lost a brother, man. It’s the same thing with Brexit over here in Europe and the far-right parties gaining more and more ground: people who don’t know any better and want easy solutions to the big problems we are facing get manipulated by scum looking to make themselves rich. Don’t be mad at him for being manipulated. Be mad at the pests manipulating them.
Fuck that. Fuck forgiveness. Fuck this and every fucking Nazi dick sucking Trump voter. What fascism is only a problem when it’s on his front door? What about Renee Good, Keith Porter, Glen Burnie, Carlos Jimenez, who were shot and/or killed by ICE? Those deaths didn’t convince him what is happening is wrong, it had to be a close loved one for him to smarten up.
I disagree to a point. It is absolutely reasonable to be frustrated with someone gullible enough to believe “fix grocery prices on day one.” These voters were either stupid or purposely ignorant, and I’m willing to bet most of them are both.
Nobody in their right mind believes that one person can wave a magic wand and fix everything in one day. I do think these people get what they voted for and unfortunately for this guy it’s a dead brother in ICE custody. Tragic state of affairs but not unforeseeable with Trump’s anti-immigrant rhetoric and Elon’s full Nazi salute on stage. These people knew exactly what they were voting for and it’s only sad because it affects them now.
These people knew exactly what they were voting for and it’s only sad because it affects them now.
doubt that, they are likely too stupid for that. It’s sad because they couldn’t see that, and a very lot of maggats as well.
You already tell that yourself:
Nobody in their right mind believes that one person can wave a magic wand and fix everything in one day.
Because they’re not in their right mind. Mental health is really on the decline there.
Yes! I knew someone would take the bait. There is no way for the entirety of the Republican party can say that “they weren’t in their right mind” it’s not statistically possible. This is the same party that is pointing at the left with the silly TDS accusations. This isn’t a trial where Trump voters get to plea insanity at the end and get off the hook. They were in their right mind, they knew what they were voting for, and they explicitly did it anyways.
People loooove to give them the benefit of the doubt and say Trump voters are this confused, taken-advantage-of populace. These are the same people wearing “Lion not Sheep” merch. So which is it, are they the strong lion, or are they the confused baby sheep?
I think part of it is pent up frustration because people realize the manipulating will never get better. We would need to completely ban Fox News and make a bunch of new media laws for that to happen.
Dumbass
That’s one tough pill to swallow…
I don’t care in the slightest. You voted for this shit. Have the life you voted for, asswipes.
“My first vote was for this president, and I regret it, and I’m gonna regret it for the rest of my life,” he added.
Infidel. How you bow before the kafir.
Well, man up, you voted for this!
No, sir, it was Biden and the Democrats fault. My actions could never have caused this. /s
Part of me feels really bad about this and another part of me is thinking womp womp.
When a lying cheating criminal, convicted of dozens of felonies, tells you he is gonna do bad stuff if he gets reelected, and you vote for him, the bad stuff he does is on you too. And you get to live with it.
The real victims are the ones who recognized the evil voted against it and had it forced on them anyway.
See Stephen Colbert and turd soup. It is most enlightening.
y’all really fell for the “empathy is a disease” meme
the most incredible thing about conservatives is their ability to self-replicate. when i die in a natural disaster caused by government cuts the only thing you’ll remember about me is that I’m from a red state, fuck em
It spreads like a virus now…because women aren’t fucking conservatives anymore unless they are forced to.
shit this is a pretty good explanation. it pivoted
The Quakers didn’t last long in those conditions, and they were actually nice.
Nah I turned out okay after fragging tons of llamas in my formitive days, despite being an HPB.
“Your brother Mohamed Nasir Paktyawal passed away this morning and his body is laying down in a parking lot in the hospital.”
Wtf
died less than a day after being in ICE custody. His family said that Mohammad had no known health conditions and had been seeking asylum in the U.S. since his arrival in 2021.
Wtf?!
Sounds like they abducted him and murdered him and then dumped his body and they’re not even trying to hide it.
By their Persian-sounding names, I’m assuming they’re Afghani. It seems like this is one of the families the US brought out to protect them from the Taliban. People who worked with the US forces while they were there.
But his name was Mohamed. So clearly that’s why ICE did this to him.
At least his brother has more self-awareness than most maga idiots whose family members get taken away or killed. This is the first time I remember reading anyone who voted for trump saying “I’ll regret my vote for the rest of my life.”
You are correct, he served along side Americans starting in 2005 and was legally relocated here. He was legal to be in the country until 2029, but ICE officials refused to look at his documentation.
The ice.gov site also slanders his name calling him a felon, but when NPR ran his background check it came up clean.
Father of 6, healthy 41 yo male with no PMH. Suddenly dies of what sounds like a poisoning shortly after being in ICE custody.
Welcome to America, where the rules are made up and your death doesn’t matter.
They cold-bloodedly execute citizens whose families have been here for generations, in front of dozens of witnesses, and on camera and nothing happens to them.
A citizen s life is worth less to them the the cost of the ammo they use, they don’t even view immigrants as people.
It’s not about viewing as people or not, they don’t view them as equals, or deserving, but of the enemy, and that includes the good’s and pretti’s.
They are all worked up about those that oppose them, have total backing to abuse those people, and next to nothing to fear of reprisals from the states they operate in much less the fed government.
How much does minneapolis suck that they haven’t put out warrants for pretti and good’s killers? It’s on fucking video, and the shooters are identified. You don’t need fed information cooperation. And you fucking knew this was going to happen, or should have.
We need all new leadership.
To them, we are all Indians.
Exactly, wtf. How did this guy die?
I’m guessing the Meal Team 6 highschool dropouts didn’t like having an actual service member in their midst, and executed him.
I think it’s likely the guy got mouthy, his brother is in the armed forces, actually believing these Chuds give a shit about veterans, they don’t and never have. It’s cynical posturing on their part and while we know they’ve fucked EVERY group of vets to the best of their ability, despite maybe the WWII ones, (only because WWII vets were too numerous and powerful after the new deal and war.)
So the Ice or whomever beat him to death or whatever. Same shit. Never get mouthy with cops, sadly it never works out well, at best you walk away as you would if you kept your mouth shut. There are ways of fighting an unjust system, mouthing off to security services with near complete control over your life and death with little consequence to themselves, is not one of them.
Exterminated by the mobile extermination team and dumped on the street.
he wasnt white apparently

This is one of the original World War II killing of Soviet civilians accused of being partisans on the Eastern Front by a German firing squad, September 1941 photographs taken, that the US Military archived. I captioned the image in Arabic styled in the meme format “First Time?” I am blatantly mocking armed US Special Forces that went to Operation Enduring Freedom to genocide being bilinguals.

…why is there a parking lot inside a hospital?
Typo or underground parking garage.
still has private hospitals. The “in a parking lot in the hospital” means “The [private] hospital’s parking lot.”
“My first vote was for this president, and I regret it, and I’m gonna regret it for the rest of my life,” he added. “Because of me, because of my voting, He got arrested, and he lost his life. And I’m never going to forgive myself for that.”
Odds that in November he
A. Votes GOP
B. Votes Dem
C. Abstains
My guess is still A.
Man, I dunno. That’s a lot
It is, but in November he’s not voting for Trump, so he can have a clear conscious on that topic, nor can he ever vote for him again unless Trump tries to pull the I can run for 3 terms thing.
If they voted for Trump, they’re probably not bright enough to realize the GOP as a whole is part of it.
Hmm fair enough. I could see that happening.
But
You know
Fucking hell this sucks
That leopard ain’t fat enough…
Needs Leozempic
Thanks I needed a good chuckle to start my day
Glad the finally studied it, it was a bit worrying how big some were getting with unclear reasoning.
This used to be common in soviet occupied countries, except they tried to be quiet about it.
He had a brother called Muhammad that had been seeking asylum yet still voted for the guy who wanted to deport all the people who were seeking asylum, especially if they had a name like Muhammad
But he already got the citizenship, so the “fuck you, I got mine” mentality set in
