What an image! Venezuelan men who narrowly avoided being imprisoned by Trump in El Salvador without trial (saved by the Supreme Court) spelled out an SOS to a @reuters.com camera drone observing the Bluebonnet ICE facility. 11 days ago, buses to the airport were turned around at the last second.

Now that Trump admitted he can pick up the phone and bring Abrego Garcia back, time to press WH on the fact that their basis for refusing is the word of a cop who was indicted for serious misconduct. Trump's ABC interview is full of bullshit. My rebuttal: newrepublic.com/post/194593/...

The final honor guard for Pope Francis included migrants, prisoners, transgender people, the homeless and others selected by the Vicariate of Rome as a symbol of the late pope’s mission of inclusion and outreach. Trump would sneer at this as woke and DEI and smash it if he could.
