The Justice Department’s latest filings make it abundantly clear that it is creating a black site for migrants in El Salvador that’s worse than Gitmo. https://slate.com/news-and-politics/2025/04/trump-administration-cecot-black-site-el-salvador.html#

NO APATHY
Anyone sent there by mistake will be tortured by the other prisoners. #Trump and his staff are the #Hitlers of our time.
This is not following any kind of legal process. Just because it was done by police does not make it legal.
So if you grab someone without authority: kidnapping.
this isn't going to happen anytime soon. it's a nice wish. but.. wish in one hand.
the fact is that as long as middle class white americans can still afford their avocado toast, nothing is going to change.
it's going to have to get much worse, more painful.
the fact that you think so is indicative that you're not ready to have your life threatened for freedom.
i saw a guy yesterday open carry in my doctors office. doctor!! why does he need a gun??
texas isn't especially threatening protestors. other states are also maga central, gun infested. just stay home if you're scared. it's ok, we got this.
I am angry and sad at the same time.
I wish we could send the fat man there. He wouldn’t last a day.
I look forward to seeing them all tried at the ICC for war crimes &violations of international law very soon.😡
“seeks to ensnare these migrants in a Kafkaesque trap from which there may be no lawful escape. And it is trying to sell this subterfuge to the federal judiciary as a legitimate opportunity for due process if any migrants have plausible objections to their treatment”
..., transporting, ... , or receiving individuals through force, fraud, or coercion for the purpose of exploitation. This exploitation may include forced labor ... . ... serious violation of human rights and ... modern slavery. (wikipedia)
None of it is legal from the very beginning.
Any lawyers in the room?
What will happen to all of these (mostly innocent) people that have been illegally imprisoned? Not just the one guy who had a court order but all of them?
This Vox article explains succinctly how Trump & his DOJ have no right to invoke the Aliens Enemies Act during peacetime, without a declaration of war against a country (only by Congress). And, it applies only to military action from a foreign country or govt, not a gang.
It is, by any practical definition, slavery.
Which would seem to also be a legal argument that it is still the US who maintains custody, they are just paying a delegate to do it for them.
If you go to a black site by mistake, they can’t get you back.
until the People wake up to the SYSTEMIC evil in our entire govt system... nothing.. will change.
america is a terrorist state.
Specifically, he's kidnapping people from places that are undeniably covered by the US Constitution, with legal rights to free speech, due process, etc.
pride comes before a fall - we hope.
Ridicule works where shaming does not. Instead, it attacks them on a weak side of their narcissism. It divides those in power from each other, and from their supporters. Fascist power is fragile.
pride comes before a fall - we hope.
it's nearly impossible to remove a sitting president. keep that in mind.
Ignore at your peril.
Wouldn’t it be nice to see Pam Bondi and Donald Trump and all their friends be the next to be imprisoned in El Salvador?
WI Judge Susan Crawford is fantastic!
Her opponent = corruption.

Lord help us.
they're outsourcing concentration camps to cruel govts for profit.
"Prison Camp"
When are we allowed to call it a concentration camp?
*GITMO and other black sites, rendition, torture, surveillance, assassination, etc...
And if /when they reverse this, they will be dead already...

Denial of Due Process undermines our entire structure of government
This basically flushes the rule of law down the toilet
I almost like the racism out in the open more in a way
fuck the fakery
christofascist nazis are making their play and speed is the tactic
Just listening to an NPR interview on deportation. The guest pointed out that if you do get deported, even just for having a snarky text message on your phone, there is no legal recourse for “undoing” it and this deportation will prevent your future access to the U.S. possibly forever.
Even a "normal" deportation can still be an illegal/unconstitutional violation of a First Amendment, when the government does it for a corrupt reason.
What they ARE doing would never have been considered legal before they started doing it & while we are seeing courts say “hang on a second”, we don’t know how they’ll ultimately rule.
Meanwhile those who are gone are now “out of us jurisdiction”.
Or apparently any document trail to ever determine such a timeline, so apparently they are all in for life.
Not that this is how we should even handle known identity folks.
There's already a ton of folks there.
doers.
