Keep in mind. Trump isn’t giving all these ICE Agents directions individually. They are choosing to do this. Stealing money. Making girls stand in the rain in their underwear. That’s their choice. Because people who chose to be ICE Agents chose it for pain it causes.

Reminder that words matter. You can’t “deport” a US citizen. You might be kidnapping, disappearing, exiling, expelling, illegally removing, etc., but you’re not “deporting” a US citizen.

The Trump administration's policy on designating people as "enemy aliens" was was that it could expel them without any recourse to the courts. DOJ said that people detained under the act are "not entitled to ... judicial review of the removal order in any court of the United States."

ICE went into the database where foreign students are tracked and deleted the record of at least 1,700 or more people because they had some minor interaction with law enforcement — speeding tickets, fishing citations, and other minor things. Judges are ruling that was illegal.

Last week, DHS and Secretary Noem's staff and spokespeople suggested that because Mr. Abrego Garcia had $1,100 in cash on him when arrested outside Home Depot seeking day labor, that was strong evidence that he was a member of MS-13. I guess that raises a similar question about her $3,000.

This. 🎯 Deportation is a legal process the Trump administration is pointedly evading. It is rendition. It is disappearing people. There is no due process. The US also can’t deport US citizens. Don’t say “deport.” Don’t say “wrongly deported.” Say “rendered.” Say “kidnapped.” Say disappeared.”

Trump is now on Twitter posting doctored photos of the tattoos of Kilmar Garcia. The whole world knows we have a deranged lunatic in the White House—and no one seems to know what to do about it. He is so obviously mentally unwell that there is no longer any serious debate about whether that is so.
