If Kilmar Abrego Garcia had only beaten Capitol police officers half to death with a Trump flag on his way into pissing on the halls on Congress while looking to hang a Vice President—he’d be free right now.

The Trump Administration is using our taxpayer dollars to pay a foreign government to keep a man it mistakenly deported in an inhumane mass prison. Trump must abide by the Supreme Court’s unanimous ruling and bring Kilmar home.

I just landed in San Salvador a little while ago, and I look forward to meeting with the team at the U.S. embassy to discuss the release of Mr. Abrego Garcia. I also hope to meet with Salvadoran officials and with Kilmar himself. He was illegally abducted and needs to come home.

The richest 1% are responsible for 30% of all unpaid taxes—amounting to $205 billion annually. That’s $562 million in unpaid taxes per day, or $6,500 every second. By gutting the IRS, Donald Trump & Elon Musk are making it easier for their rich buddies to keep cheating. #TaxDay

AOC: When he talks about rapists and criminals, he should look in the mirror

In defiance of the Supreme Court & without any evidence, the White House claims that Kilmar Abrego Garcia is a “terrorist,” who was “sent to the right place.” This is a blatant LIE. He is innocent. He cannot be allowed to rot in an El Salvadorian jail. He must be brought home.

When political beliefs alone trigger suspicion, and dissent is treated as a threat, we inch dangerously close to a surveillance state—no different from the Soviet KGB, where ideology mattered more than innocence. # Mohsen Mahdawi

Trump wants to deport American citizens to prisons in El Salvador. That’s unconstitutional, un-American, and terrifying. We cannot normalize this. Speak out and organize like our democracy depends on it—because it does.

Interesting isn't it that people like Cody Balmer, who sets fire to the governor's mansion in Pennsylvania gets their legitimate due process under the law but Albergo Garcia, who committed no crime gets none. This is America now.

An innocent man, picked up by “mistake,” must not be allowed to rot in an El Salvadorian jail. Mr. President. Obey the courts. Obey our Constitution. Bring him home immediately.

The United States is now a country where you can be picked up by secret police ~on accident~ and thrown in a El Salvador gulag, and then the federal government will fight tooth and nail to resist bringing you home, even after the Supreme Court says you should be released.

More than 50,000 people in Gaza are dead. 114,000 have been wounded — two-thirds of whom are women & children. The entire infrastructure has been destroyed. Much of that devastation has been done with bombs that the U.S. supplied to the Netanyahu war machine. We are complicit.
