I suspect that the negligence is intentional, and that the result is what was intended - they do NOT care if the people they are imprisoning or deporting are criminals, or not.
I thought that was why Noem had went down there !
You know, to make sure that innocent people hadn't been mistakenly sent to trump's House of Horrors Island !
But instead, it appears she went there merely for a photo op & to smear shit in the face of the unjustly imprisoned prisoners !
Um. You really didn't believe that first part, did you? That was sarcasm, right? Of course she went for a photo op, she got to play dressup again. And stand in front of a bunch of men, thinking they were drooling all over her butt. I wish she could hear what they probably really think of her.
They don’t care if they send innocent people. I hope there is some way for them to be return their families. They are being brutalized in that prison so Trump can have a propaganda film. What happens if someone is killed?
The government officials, and particularly Kristi Noem, Need to face the most severe penalties, under domestic and international law, for these extreme abuses of human rights and indeed of the most basic morality imaginable.
Democrats needed to pen A Letter to America detailing the injuries, abuses & usurpations of Trump’s attack on our Constitutional order, & begin to provide air and legal cover for those challenging the Administration in Court by “letting Facts be submitted to a candid world.” https://bsky.app/profile/simonwdc.bsky.social/post/3llhb2kha6k2a
How long before these idiots in the #felon47 crime family are arrested and brought before a war crimes tribunal? It is clear the few in our own govt. with a remaining shred of integrity don't have the will or power to do anything. @underwood.house.gov can you do anything?
The thing that terrifies me most is if there ARE a bunch of gang members locked up in there, we are sending innocent people to be trapped with the same people they were trying to get away from. Stuff of nightmares!
they weren't gang members before but clearly the hope is to get them to join out of necessity. which is how gangs work, really. The way to eliminate gangs is simple, just eliminate the conditions that create them - poverty, desperation, and political corruption. The opposite of what Trump is doing.
Social historian Mike Davis makes a compelling argument that the Crips and the Bloods arose in Los Angeles in the wake of the power vacuum created when the FBI decapitated the Black Panthers. Checks out.
Incompetence makes it sounds like an accident. The cruelty is deliberate because they don’t care whether an undocumented person (or even a person who went through the correct channels) is a criminal or not.
During the 2nd coming of Mad King Donald, nothing is ever the fault of Trump's slavish minions. Any errors are the fault of those who do not sufficiently support Trump. Any punishment doled out is justified.
(It's a dangerous cult)
This is a byproduct of the chainsaw. When you do things quick and dirty, mistakes are made.
It helps if you don’t think of other people as human beings.
That and the Ambien makes it easier to sleep at night.
That's no longer a "targeted deportation" but a medieval witch hunt. The cruelty of this administration knows no shame or conscience. This man is not a terrorist looking to overthrow the country. We got plenty of those in the EU.
The opening scene of Brazil (1985) had an innocent man get swatted and stolen cause a fly got caught in a filing machine. This was made as a joke and a critique on fascism/bureaucracy... now it's just real.
The fact that it makes sense in this context to say "He didn't even have tattoos" tells you everything you need to know about how deeply fucked up the context is.
The government’s cruelty is leading to horrific acts of cruelty.
“Incompetence” makes their actions seem haphazard, unknowing, and therefore at least partially innocent. We are dealing instead with the banality of evil.
Im afraid of what happens when they run out of "undocumented" people to deport. They are already locking up and deporting people with valid green cards.
Next are they going to say that any brown person without their birth certificate on them is "illegal".
This is terrifying.
He’s going to be handled worse than cattle and have his head shaved and stuffed in a cell with some of the world’s most dangerous humans. And no one is going to save us. Isn’t there some ICC something or other to throw trump and this administration in there as well?! Fuck!!
Way back when in the Dubya Bush administration, the United States passed the American Service-Members' Protection Act, which gives the president power to use "all means necessary" to free any American detained by the ICC.
So basically the US said they'll invade the Netherlands if the ICC tries.
One question to ask is what President Musk’s much vaunted AI has a role in these deportations. The incompetence here looks like AI hallucination. Connect the dots.
Ah but think of the paperwork! Which is where the errors have turned up. Don’t forget that AI is pitched as a tool to help optimize these kinds of tasks. LLMs excel at text when they are not hallucinating.
One the drumpf cabal is ousted, there's going to be a shitload of lawsuits for the US to deal with over reparations against those who have suffered at the hands of these asinine deportation scandals...
This country took two days to self-reflect over horrific pics of the bodies of a father and his toddler daughter floating in the Rio Grande before deciding that they (and their dream) didn't matter. There's no level of injustice or depravity that is unforgivable to the right or the media.
we shouldn't say "look there's an error in their logic" .. .we need to be hammering home every time anyone says anything that sending people of any sort to an el salvador prison without due process is WRONG and against the law.
All of Donald J.Trump's decisions will have a Global impact....
These Countries might consider ending all Businesses with This Administration & all of the Corporations who fund him..
I appreciate your unique perspective on the US government detaining law abiding citizens.
In fact, I hope you are doing OK, and not at PTSD level of triggering by this corrupt and lawless behaviour.
Your activism is excellent but I hope you take care of yourself too. Ad astra, per aspera.
Only one of my school friends calls me Al; you may address me as Alex.
Weird that you're thanking me for a comment directly to George, but I appreciate the sentiment.
Those who give the orders and those who carry them out should be prosecuted, serve long sentences, and pay reparations to the victims of these atrocities.
Such cruelty. Cruelty is the goal, which is in and of itself, HORRIFYING. This is exactly why due process is so f’ing important and essential for democracy and protecting human rights.
The Musk/Trump Junta is basically a production company with camera crews, writers, editors, directors & lighting gaffers whose sole purpose is to feed fascist content to their shitbag base while “owning the libs” & intimidating their “enemies.”
that was, in fact, the joke. a similar punchlike to Shrek's Lord Farquaad, who says "Some of you may die, but it is a sacrifice i'm willing to make" to his people.
Where these people are concerned, the cruelty is the point. This administration has managed to create mistrust with nations that we spent years building alliances with. I don't know if we will ever recover from this or if we even deserve to.
“Cruelty is the objective.” A direct statement to me by a dejected national (Democratic) legislator. This cruelty is not incompetence, but rather a choice. This cruelty is who we become when we practice it over the years. So now, we either turn and practice new paths, or our descent to evil deepens.
Sounds to me like they’re feeding docs into AI as a way to vet or process the high number of applications - bc you know move fast and who cares if you break something or someone - and it’s returning garbage hallucinations.
The RepubliKKKlan incompetence has lead to deaths and horrific act of indecency and cruelty and war crime on it's own citizens ... sorry, needed some fixing
America is under the rule a junta of the most incompetent subhuman slime you could imagine. They have zero legitimacy and acting like they do does nothing but give them more power they don't deserve. They must be destroyed, completely eradicated from the planet.
That reminds me of the German concentration camps.
Or the US American "internment" camps.
Unfortunately, the USA is now openly hostile to Europe.
The former liberators are now our enemies.
Liberators?
Prior to US involvement in WW2 British forces had smashed the Luftwaffe in the Battle of Britain, ditto the Kriegsmarine in the Battle of the Atlantic and smashed Germany's elite Afrika Korps throughout North Africa sending them scuttling back across the Mediterranean.
Co Liberators
Which is true.
And what the US have done to the UK, they are now trying to do to Ukraine.
Fortunately, Europe stands united in support of Ukraine against the bully.
The UK ended up paying HUGE amounts of money to the USA as part of Lend Lease not to mention the massive concessions on transatlantic trade.
I believe we are STILL paying for it.
If the Trumpies are that confused about one person's identity they can just as easily be confused about yours. Or anyone's. No one is truly safe from this administration's vengeance.
There are two outcomes here. Neither good.
1) The US government (taxpayers) are going to pay millions in reparations for these illegal actions.
2) These horrific acts are going to create an entire generation of foreign nationals who will hate America.
Unfortunately, this is as many of us predicted. And with the mess DOGE is making with public records, expect these mistakes to spread to multiple facets of people’s lives. They are all idiots, but they have the opportunity to do great harm.
Exactly. Also if they give you due process, it will show the world they are trying to do more than just stop illegal immigration. They are on the first steps of ethnic cleansing of the US.
Which is a huge disgusting problem.
I have never understood why someone could hate another person just because of their skin color, their culture, their genetic makeup, literally nothing they have control over. If they are an assh0le... OK I understand. But that's the individual. Not the everyone!
Ya, our species has weird hangups that we are going to have to help guide people past. Not that it's a problem that's permanently solvable, but we are recently swinging in the wrong direction.
The level of incompetence here is staggering. Especially because we all know and work with people who could do these jobs better. These are not the best people, and they were not hired by a good businessman.
It is not in the interest of Putin or Russia to have the USA run by "the best people". That is why Trump is falling over himself choosing the absolutely worst and most improbable individuals possible.
Yes, I agree. Me comment is more towards MAGA family who always try to sell me on “but he’s such a great businessman. He will turn the country around.” I have an MBA from a small little university in southern Indiana and I could do better than this.

Imagine if there were dozens of these mistakes a day.
Grabbing locals and visitors and shipping them off.
I will never go to America ever again.
And many times not even back to their own country according to most accounts.

They're attacking chronically sick and disabled people now.
Next are they going to say that any brown person without their birth certificate on them is "illegal".
This is terrifying.
So hold everyone in the administration and contractors used to the war crime penalty
So basically the US said they'll invade the Netherlands if the ICC tries.
or maybe even an LLM
how did anyone Not See this coming?

El Salvador’s a wrap!
The judge ordered planes to be returned.... the planes should return, with the people that were on the planes....
NOW!

They simply don't give a shit about ANYONE but themselves. They think slavery and torture IS FUNNY. Keep reminding yourself of that!
I didn’t vote for him directly or indirectly.
And as a plot twist. The undocumented immigrants are innocents too.
The acts of cruelty are so hard to handle. But dammit, I will pay attention.

We can't let this continue.

Now what?
They tolerate the incompetence because there is no shred of kindness or compassion in them.
Perhaps we need a word now for government by monsters… teratarchy?
The point is that this is NOT universally seen as a negative, unfortunately.
I have never understood why someone could hate another person just because of their skin color, their culture, their genetic makeup, literally nothing they have control over. If they are an assh0le... OK I understand. But that's the individual. Not the everyone!
Ah well. Onward.
