Raskin: If they can just sweep someone off the street, put them on an airplane, and send them to a torturer’s prison in an authoritarian state like El Salvador without due process… then they could do it to anybody.

If Trump didn't like my comments about him, he'd have Marco Rubio deport me to Afghanistan where women can't work or get an education or go anywhere w/o a man. Marco Rubio could claim it has to do with "foreign relations" & I would have NO due process
Side thought: I do wonder how many "illegal" workers were swept out of the country from 1%er homes before they could spill the beans. Or people that could testify against corps.
Raskin is a good and honest politician and what he is saying is not only possible but highly probable. This government is becoming cabalistic in that things are going on that are not being shared. Talk will not get Trump out, action is needed. If Plan A doesn't work...
Yeah and we need TO DO SOMETHING ABOUT THAT. The judge demanded they get someone back and they were like: "Nah bro, I do what I want. Forget laws." We are at the phase were our entire 'legal system' is a joke and doing nothing. He just goes to SCOTUS and says: "Make them do what I want"
it's not that "they could do it to anyone", rather,
currently they FUCKING DO IT TO ANYONE . < (notice the definitive period after my declarative statement?)
Well, do something!!! I know We the People take away Congress members' salaries and perks like Healthcare, then maybe Congress will do something to end the madman and his maddness.
It’s time to join together and protect the Rights of the People!!
MAGA Mike Johnson tells us that Elon Musk has cracked the code and now INSIDE the agencies! He has created algorithms that are continuously crawling through the data. https://youtu.be/pVbFqzgS6Q4
Yes. And they lost 9-0 at SCOTUS on the question of are they accountable for fixing it (Justice Sotomayor called out this very possibility in her concurring opinion). But they have their hands over their ears and are shouting that it’s a win. Um, no. If they’re smart, they take the loss and move on.
Yes, they can. Don’t care as long as they make their quota for the day. What’s next will they stop every brown or black person ask them to take off their shirts lookin for tats and looking at their phones. God,forbid if there is an innocent child with the the person.
Yes, it's up to us to fight for Abrego Garcia. Right now, WE CAN. If we don't, trump will make sure we lose that right. And then there will be no one left to fight when he comes for us.
We can't wait for Congress to act. They've proven they won't.
Isn't that somehow against the law. It's certainly un-American. This is what they said about the El Saad government in Syria and Saddam Hussein. Is this not unconstitutional?
To which the Trunp administration would say, "So what?" A huge part of all they are doing is unlawful or unconstitutional, but they will tell you, "We are the law."
If your guiding principles are that only you and people like you are Americans and people who aren't Americans don't get protections established in American law it all falls into place.
In the eyes of the regime, no is American and no one has rights.
This should be a blazing red alarm fire! This is beyond cruel, it’s criminal and authoritarian. We should all be on the streets about this. It’s gonna be one of us next.
They ARE doing it to “anybody”. And everyone appears to be incapable of doing anything about it. A handful of thugs just slogging forward, taking over the country because those who could stop it can’t quit infighting.
Everybody is kung foo fighting…… and nothing ever freakin happens. How many times have l heard, this should bring down the administration. Dems are a joke, their firing squad is circular. The repubs will continue to bitch slap the dems. I’m truly saddened, we had more ferocity in the 70’s .
I disagree. Nobody ever holds him accountable for his actions. Unfortunately, nobody is going to hear his story because they aren't going to release him. He is probably dead already. Trump had Epstein murdered do you really think this guy is going to somehow survive. There is only one way this ends
Agree. And the way they are fighting this only makes me think he may never be released. He knows too much. And like i said on another post, i hope I am wrong.
Not really. If he was to ever be held accountable for one goddam thing it would have been something long time ago. No, he’s going to get away with anything and everything until the day he dies. (Which: the sooner, the better.)
Careful, Jamie. It's anti-American thinking like that causing them to sweep people off the street, put them on an airplane, and send them to a torture prison in an authoritarian state like El Salvador without due process.
Already sweeping some off the due process street, & locking them in the EDNC system, denying motions, & forcing plea deals without due process, what’s stopping them from doing it to everyone in EDNC? The courts aren’t about justice anymore they’re about control. #EDNC #DueProcess #CriminalJreform
And since the state department is now claiming that these people are under the jurisdiction of a foreign government so the US government cannot then back, every one of these extrajudicial sentences are life imprisonment without parole.
Go get him! What if a group of congresspeople go down there and get him? You are in control of the purse. Tell them they are in violation of the agreement- he must be returned. Explain- there will be a change in regime here. Jimmy Carter would be landing right now. Go!
El Salvador is our Gaza. MS13 is our Hamas. We use them as control mechanisms. They haven’t picked up one MS13 member and never will. It’s an ETHNIC CLEANSING.

I guarantee you the American evangelicals who wanted a civil war thought it would turn Americans to God. No, but it’ll certainly empty your churches for a generation. 🤷♀️
I’m a Christian who flips off yellow Jesus Saves signs now. And I will never set foot in an evangelical church again.
Never Again.
I have a proposition. Can all the anti-Trump, anti-nazi, anti-dictator and restore democracy/save America people (should be around 75+million people) decide on a date and plan a strike to not work, protest, call, march, and not stop even if it takes months to save the USA?
My daughter attends U of A. Last Friday, they were on campus taking graduate students. All foreign students were up for grabs...even with student visas. 😳😳😳
Gestapo I’d say. Short for Geheime Staatspolizei, secret state police. It was the political police in Nazi Germany, that went after political opponents and put them preventively in concentration camps.
Is it? The Civil Rights Act only came to play in 1964, and it really didn’t change society overnight. % of black people incarcerated vs actual % of population is skewed. The Klan lasted till the ‘90s, now Proud Boys and Oath keepers, a lot are ICE. The US was always extremely racist, but now it’s ok
Not hyperbole. With US citizens as its permanent residents, how ironic .. No one can say we were not forewarned. Just like Project2025. We will ever learn!?
And the only way to protect yourself is to arm yourself and have emergency backup in a single signal for help to your massive backup. 100 or more should arrive in minutes. Plan for it and have each other's backs. Self defense is needed for corrupt ICE agents without warrants signed by a judge.
I absolutely want a Booker/Raskin Dem ticket for 2028. No more messing around. The American public has now shown twice that we, as a society, cannot achieve true gender equity through a presidential election, so we need to stop trying and focus on winning. Sorry, but those are the facts.
Democrats in Congress need to stop saying their Republican counterparts are "good people".
I don't care how nice they are to you when you're working in the same place, they are NOT "good people". They could stop all this bullshit TODAY and are choosing not to.
I would correct one aspect of this: stop invoking a monarchy when talking about Trump’s lawlessness, and say what it really is, namely, the workings of a fascist dictator. He’s no fucking king; he’s Hitler.
There is a thing they don't realize. Fear leads to one of two conditions. Cowardice, or courage. They only understand cowardice, because they are weak, venal people.
We can show them what courage is
Why aren’t more people concerned about this obvious Brown people ethnic cleanse?
This is how the holocaust began and no one stopped it until millions lost their lives this administration is snatching people and sending them to concentration camps don’t turn a blind eye to this who is next?
They have taken citizens off the streets no due process and then they’re REFUSING to bring them back after they’ve proven they were in the wrong!
Don’t think it can happen to you?
Think again they don’t care how it looks or who they’re taking!
It could be me next for writing this or you for
Being on this site reading, sharing, posting against them , this administration is out of control we’re in the middle of a constitutional crisis!
Who is going to stop this madness? Who is going to stop the mad King and his jesters?
Where is the justice and accountability?
I cringe at this thought, but I wonder when the prey might become the predators. Will there be a time when either a planned ICE raid is leaked or they are set up by a phony tip and encounter armed resistance when they arrive at their destination? This all needs to stop.
I think Jamie Raskin would be a really good presidential candidate - he seems extremely intelligent, compassionate, thoughtful, personable. I’m not sure why I never see his name put forward as a possibility.
Hmm
Well, not quite. El Salvador has refused females. So there is that. Being held in a detention center isn't good either though, and might just get worse
@raskin.house.gov I sent in the request for my info from DOGE. Thank you for creating the form for us. How long do I wait until I sue them for not releasing my information?
They did do to anybody. That’s the point. Now they will do anything to make sure he don’t come back. Too much trouble. Too much liability too high up the chain. If he comes back they won’t be able to do it again. If he doesn’t come back they will do it again and again gaining momentum.
Where’s Esper now? Got his name on an enemies list and now quiet? Trying to distance himself? Esper, Miley, Haspell, Bolton - all cowards. We won’t forget they did nothing to stop this. Probs thoughts they’d be called back into the WH for a cushy job.
Yeah why bother with your own camps when you can subcontract right?
Trump as usual has taken a half arsed idea and let his arse fly accolytes take it to a fully fledged fucking insane one.
That's the message they want people to take away from this, but none of the people sent there deserved to be treated like that, not one of them. They are getting people to tacitly agree that only one deserves to come home. The whole thing is a war crime.
Right. The GOP can stop this madness, cruelity, and lawlessness in a day. Where are they? Praying to the devil for power and forgiveness. Stand up people we need you. All of you🙏.
Remember Nazis don't atlast the war. #SINKGOP
Between 1936 and 1938, Stalin executed hundreds of thousands of his real and perceived political opponents in the Great Purge, after which he had absolute control of the party and state.
18 million were forced into labor camps, and 6 million were deported to remote areas of the country. #history
My first protest 37 years ago was US out of El Salvador, it was the US that put the authoritarian government in place when we funded the Death Squads there responsible for the deaths of over 50,000 civilians including many priests and nuns. Once again, we are the problem.
If only Raskin realized Trump & the other leaders who attempted the coup were fascist, maybe in 2021 he would have made the outcry 'ALL leaders who attempted the coup MUST be brought to justice & expelled from Congress!'
Biden Admin was praised, even through HE swept leader coup under the rug.
The only difference between NAZI Germany and the Trump Cabal is the NAZIS performed their own atrocities where the Trump crime family contracts it done by foreign governments!
None of which would have been possible without a plurality of 2024 US voters & a SCOTUS more interested in their own petty grievances, prejudices & sense of entitlement than the future of their nation, truth, justice or democracy.
People are being “disappeared,” just like they have been in Chile, Argentina, El Salvador, Russia, and other places with fascist regimes.
The point is to instill horror, fear throughout the population.
This stifles descent and opposition.
This gives the regime more power and control over us.

If you notice, Chump only uses a law if it benefits him or goes along with his narrative.
(You’re welcome, America!)
When!
When they start, & he then declares martial law,
Will the military comply
They are targeting universities, dissent regarding Israel.
Purging government of supposed disloyal employees.
Targeting people as enemies of herr leader Trump.
He is going to destroy people's lives
If Trump didn't like my comments about him, he'd have Marco Rubio deport me to Afghanistan where women can't work or get an education or go anywhere w/o a man. Marco Rubio could claim it has to do with "foreign relations" & I would have NO due process
