Extremely important additional context about the US-El Salvador deal. "In short, both Trump and Bukele appear to be complicit in a plan to allow MS-13 to operate in El Salvador on its own terms, in exchange for making it look like both are “cracking down” on the gang in their respective countries."

As I detail in this post, part of Bukele's "truce" with MS-13 is to give them greater control over the prisons in which they are incarcerated. Which means that Abrego-Garcia was sent back to a country where he faced gang retaliation, into a confinement where MS-13 will have power over him

Read Asha’s notes. Ask your congressperson to make inquiries and to have current/former members of LE to testify to what happened with indicted MS-13 members in the U.S. why no testimony, evidence, cross examination … due process for purported criminals? What is Trump 🙈

I wrote about some details that the Trump administration might not want to come to light when it comes to what kind of deal Trump has truck with Bukele asharangappa.substack.com/p/whats-the-...

Very eye-opening piece here. In a nutshell, Bukele cut a deal with MS-13 to operate freely but with less violence, Trump sends indicted MS-13 bigwigs back to El Salvador for kid glove treatment and dismisses charges that would have exposed all this. Security theater for all involved.

NOTE: There are more people *in this frame of television* than there are transgender athletes in the State of Maine *All* of this is theater for stupid people

Make *no* mistake, it wasn't an 'accidental' deportation, it was a test. Failing to abide by a court order sets up the precedent to ignore future court orders. This is not a drill.

He's creating chaos because he has nothing to offer. No philosophy. No vision. No ideas. So he's just tearing down what competent people built.

Yawn.

Imagine my surprise when I learned that bribery and corruption are illegal in Russia!

All I can say is that people are paying attention to a Maryland man nobody had heard of two weeks ago. If El Salvador does anything to this guy, I have feeling this will not go well for the Trump administration — perhaps not in a court of law, but in the court of public opinion…which matters

Just so I am keeping everything straight…the government can’t tell you to wear a mask because FREEDOM!!!!, but it can decide you are a “terrorist” and send you to a foreign gulag without due process and throw away the key. That right?

"After nearly five hours, he and his wife were released. They are now pursuing legal action. "It's not about the immigrants," his sister, told NBC10 Boston. "It's coming to us Americans, and it's going to go after all of us." www.nbcboston.com/news/politic...

Trump administration showed "willful disregard" to the court when it sent alleged gang members to El Salvador in defiance of the judge's order that the planes turn around.

The White House basically gave Boasberg no choice. And unless they start cooperating very quickly, possibly even if they do, they’re looking at criminal contempt like a freight train. That’s going to raise some tricky issues of penalty, but the underlying finding should be secure. What total jerks.

Friedman’s interview on Ezra Klein’s podcast is worth a listen. www.nytimes.com/2025/04/15/o...

Seems like a good time to repost this…

Trump’s gift for unearthing clowns is uncanny. www.washingtonpost.com/dc-md-va/202...

Just what everyone aspires to: "a career in coal mining." Next up, "send your children into the mines with the Labor Department's new Minor Miner initiative, part of our new un-woke approach to child labor."

I did not think this was real

I am very vulnerable to dog related misinformation. If you make up a story about a dog doing something heroic, I will believe you no questions asked

The Trump “administration is a cruel farce. Trump ran for another term not because he had any clue how to transform America…He ran in order to stay out of jail and to get revenge on those who, with real evidence, had tried to hold him accountable to the law.” www.nytimes.com/2025/04/15/o...

Shocking that an aspiring autocrat given near total immunity by the Supreme Court is now exercising that immunity to undermine the Supreme Court and democracy altogether. Honestly who could have see this coming??🤔

If they’re arguing that Harvard hasn’t done enough “in the public interest” to deserve tax exempt status, wait until they get a look at evangelical megachurches!

I wonder how those concepts of a healthcare plan are coming.

I am calling for a total and complete shutdown of detainees being removed from the United States to foreign prisons until our country's representatives can figure out what is going on.

Good reference

I don’t think a better headline could have been written about what happened yesterday. www.rollingstone.com/politics/pol...

DOGE is a criminal conspiracy to defraud the people of the United States

Trump is powerless against much more macho and manly President of El Salvador. That’s the headline.

I came to this country as a refugee. I served 25 years in uniform, including as prosecutor. I now serve as Rep. for a large and wonderful population full of immigrants from all over the world.

These idiots can say whatever nonsense they want. Maybe it plays well with their base. None of it fools world leaders, however. They know he’s an idiot and they will take advantage of him (us).

The SignalGate was made public 23 days ago, yet the Trump administration has shown zero accountability so far

Again, if the idea is that when someone in custody leaves the nation’s airspace there’s no way for a court to compel the state to return them—or exert any jurisdiction at all—then you’re simply saying whoever’s in power can fly people 100 miles offshore and push them out of helicopters into the sea.

I.e., Affirmative action for MAGA

Still struggling with just how avoidable this was, and how the years of warnings were ignored. At this point it feels as it will still get much worse before it gets better, so a key challenge now is to imagine then work towards a world beyond the horror of the present. That’s my aim, at least.

Trump told us the plan today: The Trump administration wants the prison in El Salvador — and, perhaps, others — to hold Americans. Importantly, Vance, Rubio, and Bondi did not appear surprised or upset by this news — in fact, it did not appear to be news to them at all. This is the plan. Law Dork:

Criminals deserve due process because due process is literally how we determine whether someone is, *in fact*, a criminal

President of El Salvador says he won't return mistakenly deported man to U.S. Trump’s administration claimed it had no responsibility to facilitate the return of Abrego Garcia to the U.S. despite an order from the Supreme Court. This is Trump’s new America. www.rollingstone.com/politics/pol...

If the U.S. government is going to take the position that, once removed from the United States, folks can’t be brought back, then it sure seems to me that federal courts should be reflexively and categorically barring *all* removals until they’re 100 percent certain that the removals are lawful.

This once again confirms the prisoners are in El Salvador prisons at our behest and under our control.
