This is getting overlooked: Trump *openly admitted* he hasn't even asked Bukele to return Abrego Garcia, claiming *his lawyers haven't said he has to.* Either Trump is knowingly flouting SCOTUS or his lawyers have deceived him. Exchange w/ @speechboy71.bsky.social: newrepublic.com/article/1945...

I really wish reporters would stop saying that there is an effort by the Trump administration to combat antisemitism. It is quite the opposite. There is an effort to foment antisemitism. forward.com/fast-forward...

SCOOP: three days after Kilmar Abrego García’s family sued the govt for his wrongful deportation, US officials began working on plan to fix the mistake and ensure his safety in El Salvador until they could bring him back. Then the Trump administration dug in www.theatlantic.com/politics/arc...

I have a bipartisan bill that would make these protections ironclad. It passed the House unanimously (twice) and it was never taken up in the Senate. Now Trump is laying the groundwork to lock up reporters who don't rat out their sources who expose crimes by his administration.

Seeing claims about the judge "hiding" the defendant. Read the complaint, folks (written by DOJ). The guy was literally in the public area where the agents were. I guess he got on an elevator before they could get to him. The complaint says after letting the defendant exit she came back to the bench

God love Ryan Coogler for taking his clout from Black Panther and David Zaslav’s money to make a horny, gory, morally grey, politically complicated, very funny original adult art movie shot on IMAX 65mm for real—that a bunch of industry insiders were rooting for to fail.

It looks like the administration’s efforts to snatch Venezuelan immigrants and dump them in an El Salvadoran penal colony before the courts intervene have finally sparked solid pushback from a 7-2 Supreme Court www.nytimes.com/live/2025/04...

WATCH: Chris Newman is an attorney who traveled with Sen. Van Hollen to El Salvador. Before he left, Rep. Jim McGovern told him, “This is the first time that if something were to happen while people are down there, the U.S. government is not going to help us.”

This is an obvious point, but cannot overstated. There is an enormous difference between deporting someone - where they get off a plane as a free citizen in their home country AND FUNNELING THEM INTO A BRUTAL PRISON FROM WHICH THEY HAVE NO CHANCE OF EVER EMERGING!!!

Folks are missing this: When Salvadoran VP said to Sen Van Hollen that Trump is paying them to hold migrants, he wrecked WH scam by revealing that of course Bukele would release Abrego Garcia if Trump asked. Talked about this w/ @melissagiragrant.com. Transcript: newrepublic.com/article/1940...

And notice how the rhetoric has shifted from deporting criminals to deporting all migrants. They use the claim of MS-13 to bash liberals in the prominent cases, but quickly shift to the "millions" of migrants in this country who have not committed any crimes who must be deported.

Just a reminder how classic what we're seeing is: 1. redefine a group as a threat to civilization 2. reduce legal protections that they enjoy 3. abuse, threaten, harm, and/or relocate them 4. dismiss/ignore concerns about abuses and harms from the process 5. repeat steps 2-4, escalating each time

Okay, cards on the table: I refuse to be concerned. Because I believe, in the pit of my soul, that being concerned creates a permission structure not to express one’s views to protect oneself. I don’t think we’re there, but even if I did, I wouldn’t act like it.

I hate to be that guy, but this is the five-alarm fire, and every elected Democrat and frankly, every Washington reporter should be ringing the bell. If it can happen to him, it can happen to anyone. Nobody with a voice should give this administration a moment’s peace about it.

And every single institution under threat—especially universities and law firms—should band together and use their collective power to fight. Due process is the issue to unite around. Immoral and likely illegal, but also bad for national security and propensity. Every American will suffer harm.

As with the EOs concerning elections, immigration and naturalization is categorically NOT an Article II power. To do this, the executive branch will undoubtedly try to hang its hat on some delegated authority by Congress. The focus now should be on clawing those delegated authorities back

This chaos will keep hurting the American people. Maybe the President is looking for an exit ramp. Maybe he's not. Either way, this will only end when Congress reins Trump in.

U.S. media remains totally snowed by bad faith arguments. Trump officials want to use a collapse to consolidate political power, forcing companies to come to them for special favors and punishing blue states when their leaders fight back. It’s a shakedown.
