Marco Rubio just announced 10 more people were sent to be imprisoned in CECOT. They were flown there from Gitmo to be imprisoned potentially for life based not on any crime for which they were convicted, but on unproven allegations of gang membership with no due process. This is not lawful.

After the attack on Shapiro’s residence, I feel like it’s important to remind people how easy it is for people to become irrevocably radicalized online. Right wing media (both “new” and legacy) is using the same tactics we see groups like Al-Qaeda use to recruit.

D-MD, Senator Hollen sends letter to Salvadorian Ambassador to request a meeting with President Bukele. D-NY, Rep Espaillat, also sent a letter to Bukele & said if he has not received a response by today, he will ask Bukele in person to visit the prison where Garcia is being held. Don't give up!!

Another plane crash? A small plane that was headed to Columbia County Airport in Hudson, New York crashed in a field killing 6 people onboard, including Karenna Groff, the 2022 NCAA woman of the year. I’m sure that guy from The Real World is on top of it. 😔

I hate fraud so much. I was lucky to be raised by a deeply ethical dad who worked in the real estate industry in Florida and so was constantly bringing home stories of the worst kinds of guys getting rich in ways that they felt were "illegal but fine" but were actually the worst kinds of theft.

Ftr, while the President said “there was no exception” for tech on Friday, the Customs document calls it an “exception.” Which is all quite exceptional. (Thanks to @mbandman.bsky.social for the link.)

He’s threatening media companies who are critical of him. He’s talking about sending Americans to foreign prisons. He’s signing executive orders to investigate former staff members who spoke out against him. He’s defying the Supreme Court. Don’t you see what’s happening here?

We need to give up the framing that they imprisoned a man in El Salvador “mistakenly.” Their actions prove this is intentional. Did they mean for this to be the trial run? Don’t know. But they’re running hard with it. That’s not a “mistake.” That’s fascism.

No one on TV does a better job of exploring complex issues in depth than @velshi.bsky.social @msnbc.com. The segment on American manufacturing this morning was terrific. Especially Jeff Sonnenfeld from Yale saying “The frat boys are driving the car off the cliff. And the driver is drunk.”
