Then it wasn't a detention contract (which I can't believe no one is going after), it was sale into slavery.

All of us should see through it

It's the most fucking lawless bullshit imaginable

A millennium since the Magna Carta, and these jackals want to destroy society.

The administration who wants to annex Greenland, Gaza, Panama and Canada talking about respecting the sovereignty of El Salvador.

Can you explain how it's even remotely legal to deport people to a prison in another country for indefinite detention? They have not been convicted of anything & shouldn't be in prison just because their home country won't take them back. Qu also applies to those sent to Panama: where are they now?

It’s not even remotely legal.

Is a law a law when no one wants to enforce it?

plumedae.bsky.social•18 hours ago

That's definitely the question!

Instead, this SCOTUS is playing along so it seems like they are not allowing it while avoiding a Constitutional crisis and actually allowing him to do whatever the fuck he wants.

There is no longer a reason to believe Trump or his corrupt DOJ. Every action is a stall, every word is a lie. A paragraph is not “proof of life”.

Is this a claim the US can’t get him back or a claim that it has no legal authority to demand him back? The latter is probably technically true, but only relevant if the US has made a sincere effort to ask for him back.

It's hard to see through something when you really, really don't want to.

It’s itching my brain to realize it’d be easier to extradite someone for criminal charges than get an innocent person back stateside.

bluememe.bsky.social•1 day ago

It would be trivial get him back if Trump wanted to.

galalefey.bsky.social•1 day ago

Truth.

The administration created this situation on purpose so that they could try to deceive the courts. Anyone whose brain isn’t addled by partisan bias can see that.

Until a judge states this in writing and sanctions those who argued for the policy, we must presume that the courts are complicit. Until the Democratic Party appears to care, we must presume that they are, too.

More accurate: Trump's created this situation so that the Supreme Court Republicans could deceive themselves.

jmeijers.bsky.social•1 day ago

I suppose that means we are going to learn a lot about how partisan the Supreme Court is.

bluememe.bsky.social•1 day ago

That was beyond dispute a quarter century ago, in Bush v. Gore.

“it is my understanding” that’s a cop out. That leaves space for I got it wrong, or I was poorly informed.
