This is the kind of thing that, if true, leads to life sentences for treason

Judge Boasberg finds there is probable cause to pursue criminal contempt charges against the Trump administration officials who disobeyed his order to stop the deportation of immigrants to El Salvador If the Supreme Court covers for them now, it will be a severe blow to democracy for years to come

Hearing the same from a direct source. People in Americorps being told they're done. It's over. No notice.

Let’s be clear. When the President defies the Supreme Court, it is the role of Congress to remove him from office. Full stop.

Karoline Leavitt is a liar, propagandist & accomplice to a criminal regime. “There is never going to be a world in which [Kilmar Abrego Garcia] is going to live a peaceful life in MD because he is a foreign terrorist & MS-13 gang member,” she said w/o evidence about a man who's committed no crime.

"After nearly five hours, he and his wife were released. They are now pursuing legal action. "It's not about the immigrants," his sister, told NBC10 Boston. "It's coming to us Americans, and it's going to go after all of us." www.nbcboston.com/news/politic...

Constituents to Chuck Grassley: "Are you bringing back that guy from El Salvador?" Senior Citizen: “If I get an order to pay a ticket to pay $1200 and I just say ‘no’, does that stand up? Because he just got an order from the Supreme Court and he just said ‘screw it’” “I’M PISSED!”

When Andrew Tate was charged with rape and human trafficking, Trump intervened to fly him back to the US. When a working-class father of a disabled 5-year-old child was wrongfully deported and charged with NO crime, Trump refuses to lift a finger.

List please.

I am calling for a total and complete shutdown of detainees being removed from the United States to foreign prisons until our country's representatives can figure out what is going on.

Some progressives can be as closed-minded as MAGA, conservatives, and TEA Partyers. Worse, it can come with a false elitism that turns off the reachable.

You’d 𝘵𝘩𝘪𝘯𝘬 Murdoch and his scumbag foot soldiers might’ve learned a lesson about defamation from the whole Dominion thing, wouldn’t you? Long past time to bankrupt this asshole’s noise machine once and for all.

important context about the concentration camps in el salvador:

I don’t think they understand, this isn’t 1930’s Nazi Germany and we aren’t good little Germans. The people of this country will hand deliver Trump to The Hague.

Emergency video: it’s time to start making plans. Either the house steps up to defend the constitution, or our generation does. adamkinzinger.substack.com/p/emergency-...

Now that kidnapping is legal in the United States, anyone thinking it’s time to disappear the real terrorists gang members and their mob bosses? www.msnbc.com/opinion/msnb...

Many native-born American immigration lawyers have received official letters from the government demanding that they self-deport. Apparently DHS used a list of aliens including many who listed their attorneys’ contact info by way of a care-of address. The country’s in the very best of hands.

Why is an Illinois city that is NOT in the Lake Michigan drainage basin being allowed to tap into Lake Michigan water? This is a slippery slope and opens the lake up to more exploitation by a state that offers almost literally nothing to Lake Michigan? #mymichigan

To everyone replying “they voted for it” when we talk about immigrant rights: The Hispanic community is NOT a monolith and 53% voted for Harris. We organized, knocked on doors, and led weekly caravans for Harris-Walz. Blanket statements erase the work of a community that showed up for democracy.
