Let's be really really clear. The Trump admin chose a Palestinian activist as the target of its first lawless political detention precisely BECAUSE they believe that will split the opposition. If you shrug at the abduction of Mahmoud Khalil, or worse, cheer it on, you're following Trump's script. - ThreadSky

Correct, because they watched the Democrats silence them first.

If there is one thing I learned listening to that Charlie Kirk interview, its that they have mastered exploiting Democratic fault lines and divisions. We can’t let them. We have to stay united and focus on opposition.

I actually think the guy is a POS, but I agree with you. We can't allow lawless and de facto renditions. Then again, we shouldn't have allowed a felon to take classified info and sell it to Russia either.

They’ve also been holding a German citizen for a month. None of this is OK and all of it should be protested.

The government is black-bagging lawful residents because of their speech.

This should not be a litmus test. This should demand universal outrage.
