So all the White House political reporters are spending the weekend getting up to speed on the Abrego Garcia case and litigation related to the gulag in El Salvador so that they can prep good questions for Bukele’s visit on Monday, right? Right????????

Judge Xinis said Friday “There are no business hours in this court.” I’ll be keeping an eye on her docket this evening given Trump’s late and insufficient response to her order, and Abrego Garcia’s motion to show cause. Not to mention Trump’s assertion that Bukele has sole custody.

the transfer to El Salvador of US deportees is, per Pres Bukele, a straight up contract that has “nothing to do w/foreign policy.” The fees we are paying makes their entire prison system “sustainable.” Don’t see how US can make argument that bringing A-G back is some sensitive foreign policy matter

Is there any link between the Trump admin’s “deal” with El Salvador and Bukele’s plan for a “Bitcoin City,” which was going to be scaled back in order to receive loans from the IMF — and Trump admin’s plans to use gold reserves to buy Bitcoin? Or all just coincidence theweek.com/business/eco...

Trump is also saying that the once the US has rounded up individuals, with minimal or zero due process, on whatever pretext they choose, they can send them out of the US to face torture, death, life imprisonment, slave labor or other fates that are unconstitutional or illegal in the US.

So now all the “fiscal conservatives” in Congress who complained for the last 4 years that the Biden/Pelosi budget deficits were “mortgaging our kids’ futures” are on a path to pass a budget that will explode the deficit exponentially to far more than any of the Biden years.

So Trump has conceded he has the ability to bring García back. So not doing so would be contempt of court.

SCOTUS ruled 9-0—twice—that the Trump admin can’t deport people without due process, and must facilitate the return of a person wrongfully deported. I joined @lawrenceodonnell.msnbc.com to explain the Administration’s lawless — and cruel — actions.

If you feel like being inspired by a big law firm, here's the opening to Sussman Godfrey's lawsuit against Trump and his executive order targeting the firm. It still is amazing other firms caved quickly to Trump's mob-like and unconstitutional shakedown. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

The message China is sending to the US is “we don’t need you and we don’t care, we have survived for 5,000 years (for most of which the US didn’t exist) and we’ll survive for another 5,000” It’s not looking good for the USA.

Not an easy decision. I strongly believe in supporting journalism, especially local journalism, and am a longtime subscriber; but I cannot support Gannett and their choice to throw their values under the bus to appease a wannabe dictator.
