This is an obvious point, but cannot overstated. There is an enormous difference between deporting someone - where they get off a plane as a free citizen in their home country AND FUNNELING THEM INTO A BRUTAL PRISON FROM WHICH THEY HAVE NO CHANCE OF EVER EMERGING!!!

The Bush administration disappeared people too, sent them to a different gulag at Gitmo and other black sites, kidnapped people off the street of Milan, tortured them, in the name of "a different kind of war." We didn't come close to holding them accountable. We're seeing the cost of that now.

New: Donald Trump's economic policy stems from his insecurity-driven obsession with manly men, and his desire to feel manly in his own right by wielding power. So instead of encouraging health and fitness he wants to throw desk-job workers into factories and mines.

🚨UPDATE: New evidence filed by the ACLU last night shows that the Trump administration is going forward with more Alien Enemies Act deportations in seeming violation of the Supreme Court's clear command that people be provided a "meaningful" opportunity to seek judicial review.

Trump’s executive order impeding birthright citizenship “rewrites the Constitution by fiat,” Adam Serwer wrote in January. It’s a test of how far “Republican-appointed judges and justices” will go to give Trump what he wants:

The Trump administration has quietly doubled down on its decision to stop sending emergency food to children starving in Bangladesh, Somalia, and other countries. Without urgent intervention, these children might die within months, @hana-kiros.bsky.social reports. https://theatln.tc/kQAZFJJw

Context: The Trump administration is trying to use a procedural issue (the scope of the injunctions) to put the policy into effect across 99% of the country. It’s not formally asking the Court to uphold the executive order, but the relief it’s seeking would produce the same practical result.
