Republicans don't have a line that is too far for Trump to cross. Insurrection wasn't too far. Espionage, fraud & rape weren't too far. Wreaking havoc on the stock market & destroying people’s savings isn't too far. Kidnapping US residents & selling them a foreign torture prison isn't too far.

The constitutional crisis is here. The President is disobeying lawful court orders. His advisors and allies are cheering him on. And Kilmar Abrego Garcia remains trapped in a jail in El Salvador. youtu.be/HGTIELDTHOo?...

The government is weaponizing the immigration system to crack down on opposition to the US involvement & support of Israel. The media aren't saying this. Dem officials aren't saying it. How many more academics have to be arrested before the truth is blared?

Another Columbia student arrested today. Remember all the MAGAts that stood outside every Trump trial & protested? Remember all the House Republicans who flocked to the courthouse & protested live, in front of the world, with signs and megaphones? Replace this image w Mike Johnson, etc., etc.

Trump has diverted media attention from Russia’s invasion of Ukraine to his fake "peace" process. In fact, American weakness enables Russian aggression as a new offensive looms. Useful corrective here. www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

Spot the American. Is it someone who speaks his mind and does the work to get citizenship? Or is it someone born into citizenship who covers his face while abducting people in a Черный ворон?

1/4. On the White House’s theory, if they abduct you, get you on a helicopter, get to international waters, shoot you in the head, and drop your corpse into the ocean, that is legal, because it is the conduct of foreign affairs.

Trump is a cop killing insurrectionist, rapist & 34 count convicted felon He avoided jail for 8 yrs by milking his right of due process using campaign cash to file appeal after appeal Now wants to send Americans to a foreign prison w/o due process, where the Nazi pig himself is sole judge & jury.

We're in The Bad Place, folks. The existence of an overseas gulag to which you - yes, you personally - can be sent with no recourse marks the end of a whole period of American history. There's no going back after this. Even if these guys are defeated, the new order will have to look much different.

Important SCOTUS Reminder: Bush and his DOJ argued that habeas corpus did not apply to Guantanamo because it was outside US territory. The SC later ruled in Boumediene v. Bush that detainees at Guantanamo have a right to habeas corpus, even though the base is not US sovereign territory.

Want to know who pulls the kind of evil shit that Trump and his thugs are pulling? People who think they won't ever be out of power. Mid-terms coming? Don't count on it. Fascists don't work that way, and every one of Trump's actions is an authoritarian one.

This is it. This is the answer to the question: "Are we at a point, as a democratic nation where the executive can kidnap you off the street, ship you to a foreign gulag, wash their hands of it, and you'd have no recourse whatsoever to ever see the light of day again?" The answer is a firm yes.

UPDATE: El Salvador’s brutal far-right dictator, Trump and Musk friend Nayib Bukele, has confirmed that he will never return any person sent to him from America. And Trump has confirmed he wants American citizens sent to El Salvador to die in a foreign gulag. This is a five-alarm fire for democracy.

The president of the United States and the president of El Salvador have conspired to kidnap a man and hold him hostage in an El Salvador prison. This criminality ignores the rule of law and thumbs its nose at a Supreme Court ruling to facilitate his return.

Important read. The Trump administration is packed with pure evil, starting at the top. But Rubio just might be the biggest evil, cloaked in the shadows. A huge spotlight needs to be put on this. Exposing them is a great form of torture and they all need to be forced to the wall.

Staggering…and really sick!

Lawyers across the country, including me, are ringing the bell as loud as we possibly can about the fact that the Abrego Garcia case signals the end of our democracy. The vicious, fascistic lies Trump, Bondi, Miller, and Homan have told about it underscore that they know exactly what they're doing.

If Stephen Miller can lie about Abrego Garcia and his case on national TV, he can do it in federal court under oath. Judge Xinis should demand his appearance, question him under oath, then jail him for Contempt when he commits Perjury. This lawless administration has to be subjected to rule of law.

You will find the scope of this new PROOF report—the third in a series on the Trump-El Salvador Scandal—staggering. You will want to know this information before the Trump-Bukele Summit Monday. It is worse than anyone feared.

The lies Pam Bondi and Stephen Miller just told about Abrego Garcia on national TV... ...I have no words for them. I am sick of calling things obscene or deranged. These are obviously evil people charting an obviously evil course for our country. The idea of Hell was devised for people like this.

Judge Salas' son was murdered by a racist, women hating Trump supporter. Shot & murdered her son & shot her husband. He also planned to kill Justice Sotomayor. Paul Pelosi bludgeoned to near death & now another Trump terrorist tried to burn alive Shapiro & his family. While Congress does zip.

This MAGA terrorist tried to burn Governor Shapiro and his family alive. That isn't arson, it is flat out attempted murder of one of the 25 or so most powerful people in the country. Yet Garcia and the others disappeared for life for doing nothing. Do not let up on this. Make Trump burn for it.
