Trump cozied up to El Salvador President Nayib Bukele — the self-proclaimed "world's coolest dictator" — at the White House today. They made it clear that Kilmar Abrego Garcia would not be returned to the U.S. despite the Supreme Court's ruling.

Trump not only refuses to comply with the Roberts ruling, but he has now completely mischaracterized it. What will the Supreme Court do in response? That’s the question we’re working through today. Today's Triad from @jvl.bsky.social: www.thebulwark.com/p/what-is-jo...

This is terrifying in America. ICE agents are showing up masked—these abductions must stop. If you’re going to detain someone, show your face, present a warrant, and proper ID. Disappearing people from their families without evidence or accountability isn’t law enforcement—it’s state-sponsored fear.

The most revolting Oval Office presser since Feb. 28 (the Zelensky one). Even just hitting a few of the lowlights of this will leave you sickened and dismayed. BUT it's also clarifying. Anyone who has been talking about "the road to authoritarianism" can stop that now. The road is behind us.

Here’s an idea for Passover, the Freedom Holiday: When El Salvador’s President Bukele enters the White House Monday April 14 for an “official working visit,” he should BRING MR. GARCIA WITH HIM, HOPEFULLY ALIVE, AND RETURN THE RANSOM HE COLLECTED FOR ENSLAVING THAT LAWLESSLY SEIZED INNOCENT MAN.

“Mr. Auten worked on 2 major investigations that angered Mr. Trump & Mr. Patel, including the FBI’s investigation into Russian meddling during the 2016 election. He was also involved in analyzing the information found on Hunter Biden’s laptop, a discovery that roiled the 2020 presidential campaign.”

The four law firms that it was announced are now Trump collaborators -- Kirkland & Ellis, Latham & Watkins, Simpson Thacher, and A&O Shearman Sterling -- ALSO agreed today to "Disavow DEI" as part of a settlement with EEOC. Why would any new associate join such a place? Why would any partner stay?

A WSJ study has determined that the US Government under Donald Trump has spent $154 billion more than the US Government spent in the same period under Biden. A considerable part of this relates to Trump, including the $3.3 mm he spends from the Treasury for each of his weekend golf vacations in FL.
