The great Simon Maloy once reacted to Trump I stupidity with "can we not do [diplomacy] on fucking Twitter". Now it's a matter of course not only to do it, but to do it with the stupidest, ugliest memes available. Sorry Simon we failed you
that will not bode well for either administrations...in global politics there are consequences...and El Salvador is always a week away from a revolution
But this is silly because the order isn’t to El Salvador, it’s to the US admin.
The judge isn’t discussing what Bukele must or mustn’t do. It’s telling the US admin to figure out how to undo their criminal actions.
This is where any other president (who would never have allowed this in the first place), would be on the direct line to Bukele: “I’m giving you 1 hour to get this man out on the tarmac ready to board a US plane that will be landing. 1 hour. Defy us and I will rain a shit storm on you the 1/2
by "fire up some booker energy" are you referring to shitting your diaper on the senate floor while filibustering... nothing..?..shortly before confirming two trump appointments via unanimous consent?
What deal did we make to pay El Salvador to hold prisoners that doesn’t include the ability to get them back?!? Was this a life sentence and rendering without trial? Were they just supposed to stay there forever? Stop paying El Salvador FFS.
It’s all fun and games to them.
An innocent man.
A “clerical error.”
Deported to horror prison.
“Oopsie” and emojis.
‘Fuck that guy. Not my problem’
Hahahaha
Trump and thugs true colors.
Cruelty is the goal.
This guy is fucking around with this shit while the world economy collapses. Better make sure he keeps paying those guards or he's going to end up skinned and buried alive.
Serious question though, if the individual has no proof of citizenship, what's the legal basis for the US ordering the release/ return of the individual, even if they admit to an oopsie? Technically what authority does the US have even if they wanted to?
The person was under U.S. jurisdiction. Now let’s assume this was Iran where U.S. did not have. a diplomatic relations with, US couldn’t even bring back a dual citizen. But here, US clearly has a contract going with El Salvador.
Who cares what he says. He's being paid to do it, right? The court can at least order those payments stopped if that's what it takes. Like I get that this is a lawless government but the mechanisms are there for the court to do stuff
At this point, someone pick up all the over-processed Barbies, Homan, and Trump and send them out of country for holding in a prison. They can be returned when the prisoners in El Salvador are returned.
If the Government refuses to get the release, I suggest the Court find ALL lawyers involved in contempt and put them in jail until the gentleman is back in the USA.
In the old days, when America was great, the President would have ordered the Marines into that shithole central American country, mocked its tinhorn dictator, & broke people out of prison.
That's bullies deal with small-time punks.
Just saying, but if we're gonna go all unitary executive and everything, the legal oracle of such authoritarianism already previewed how Bukele might readily be dealt with...
A weird thing about these guys is they all claim to be such alpha males, but they communicate like 12 YO girls.
Esp Vance & this guy.
It’s REALLY weird to see them acting all macho and saying they hate gender confusion.
They mean girl harder than the cast of clueless, & in more eyeliner.
In the Pets movie, the discarded magician's rabbit, who he is comparing himself to here, ultimately seeks domestication and the loving comfort of a small child.
Dems need a leader stat. And that person needs to send an emissary to El Salvador and to tell this scumbag that we will destroy his country when Dems are back in power if he doesn’t cut this shit out.
Well, it's probably tricky to cancel that contract.
Rubio probably has to wait on hold to speak with a customer success agent. And instead of the standard Pinochet disappearance package, they keep upselling him on Inquisition-era torture and something called the "King Leopold Special".
Yeah this hellscape is really clarifying Ecclesiastes 1:18, “in much wisdom is much grief, & who increases knowledge increases sorrows”. 🤦♀️ Also, as I recall, this is an incredibly evil bunny 🐰, so at least he’s staying in character I guess.
Doh! 😖 I completely mistook him for the evil bunny in Hoodwinked, tbh 😅. Looks related to the OG evil bunny in Monty Python’s Holy Grail too … I sense a pattern emerging 🤔
Of course he will, also, wasn't this the El Salvadoran who was shipped back...yeah, he isn't complying and the Adminstration won't leverage him to send the fella back
Normally, whenever I see public figure being called names (Drumpf, Elongated Muskrat, Trudope...etc.) a part of me despairs at the level of discourse we have succumb to.
It's very clear that Trump can, in fact, retrieve this man, simply by saying that they will send no more customers to the slave prison that El Salvador runs. It's farce to suggest that he doesn't have the power to correct this intentional 'error'.
It's still early days. Why would Bukele want to take on grief on behalf of Trump? Are they besties? He's got enough indigenous issues to deal with already. Always assuming the person in question isn't already dead.
I think what he is saying is that we'll have to BUY each prisoner back for the amount he stands to lose in the fees promised to hold them.
Just what was The Deal?
How much did trump pay & how LONG does he pay? A prisoner could die & they wouldn't tell, so they'd still get paid.
Yet another bad deal.
If ES returned that man, it would not be a point of conflict between US court and US executive. Court will now instruct executive to get that man back; executive will baulk.
Probably why they made the deal with him. They think they can get away with letting him snub the judiciary. Trump doesn’t get to stand up & claim we have all this power to make countries beg re: tariffs then claim we have none with little El Salvador.
Toss the Trump Administration's officials in a holding cell until the illegally deported & imprisoned individuals are back on US soil. Contempt is easily within reach for any judge hearing this matter. Or, maybe, keep everyone in court until the jets touch down. Adjourning for the weekend seems off.
Trump is paying El Salvador to maintain this prison. $$$ talks. Let’s throw a few high profile Homeland Security folks in their prison and see what happens.
Since Trump is paying Bukele to hold these people, and this is the response he posted, it just shows that Trump is the bitch of yet another autocrat. If Trump wanted to be a sub this badly, we could have sent him to SF or somewhere else where he could have had his fantasies sorted more easily.

I'm fairly certain the trump administration sold them into prison slavery to the El Salvadorian govt.
He wants the money he was promised in exchange for accepting them
They need to go.
Would certainly shed light on why the govt is arguing the way it is.
Also tacos with like and avocado. Those will be gone too.
The judge isn’t discussing what Bukele must or mustn’t do. It’s telling the US admin to figure out how to undo their criminal actions.
This is El Salvador. Fucking El Salvador. Trump is getting pushed around by fucking El Salvador. What a weak and pathetic fool. 2/2

But in the end just wanted to be loved.
If it does and Bukele doesn’t comply with a request, in a sane world there’d be diplomatic consequences (yes, I know).
But the U.S. simply waving at El Salvador w/o documenting an effort shouldn’t fly.
That's bullies deal with small-time punks.

Oldie but a goodie
This is different.
This is good.
I hope the ICC is taking note of all of this.
