A Texas man is currently stranded in Jamaica after getting deported for being born on a U.S. Army base in Germany.
Jermaine Thomas was dragged onto a deportation flight by immigration agents last week over a decade after the U.S. Supreme Court ruled that he did not qualify for U.S. citizenship under the Fourteenth Amendment.
