In SCOTUS's 7-2 ruling stopping more kidnapped people from being sent to El Salvador, the majority justices didn't wait for Alito to write his dissent. That's odd and suggests they didn't trust him to act in good faith, that his plan was to hold up the order until the prisoners were already gone.

Q: "How do you respond to Governor Newsom?" Sen. Van Hollen: "I think Americans are tired of elected officials or politicians who are all finger to the wind...Anybody who can't stand up for the Constitution and the right of due process doesn't deserve to lead."

Booker: "I confess that I have been imperfect. I confess that I've been inadequate to the moment. I've confess that the Democratic Party has made terrible mistakes that gave a lane to this demagogue. I confess we all must look in the mirror and say 'we will do better.'"

OK, y’all, it’s on. Blow up those phones email servers, stand outside the building if you have to, but we MUST stop this from happening. Community Life is a life saving service for some seniors. This will be absolutely devastating.
