AOC: Itā€™s bone-chilling. Every day, thereā€™s something new. And today, we saw Trump express openness to sending U.S. citizens to foreign prisons without due process. Itā€™s anti-American.

We must all stand as a united front against the kidnapping and illegal detention of Kilmar Abrego Garcia in El Salvador. Senator, I am willing to join you and help Organize other members of the House to do the same. @vanhollen.senate.gov

There will be no restoration of a constitutional republic until he is not only removed from power but repudiated as having never legitimately held it. The system simply can't fit back together again without that. You can't shatter the foundation to this degree and then try to rebuild on top of it.

The televised Oval Office meeting with Bukele is mockery. Theyā€™re mocking the press, their opposition, the courts, and the entire concept of justice. Theyā€™re mocking everyone who isnā€™t them. The abuserā€™s playbook yet again.

Oh look. Another bribery and extortion scheme.

This is terrifying in America. ICE agents are showing up maskedā€”these abductions must stop. If youā€™re going to detain someone, show your face, present a warrant, and proper ID. Disappearing people from their families without evidence or accountability isnā€™t law enforcementā€”itā€™s state-sponsored fear.

A reminder that Donold feeds off of fear. He wants everyone to be afraid at all times. He wants you to stop discussing Kilmar Abrego Garcia. He wants you to stop discussing SignalGate. So he sows fear and panic.

So by paying our taxes, we pay for a Central American dictator who runs the 116th-richest nation in the world to build five more supermax concentration camps slated to be filled with our countrymen and wholly innocent legal permanent residents of the United States? Is that right?

They wonā€™t stop until youā€™re starving, silent, and enslaved. Tear it all down or get buried alive. Stand upā€”or get swallowed whole!

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

They all laughed as they spoke of an untried man, tortured in a cell with no way out, no hope of justice. From the comfort of a gilded room, wrapped in luxury and power, they laughed. These are not men. These are monsters.

HE IS PROMISING TO SEND AMERICANS TO FOREIGN DEATH CAMPS. This is it. This is where America ends.

Did anyone notice that Buekele didnā€™t wear a tie? I thought that outraged people when Zelensky didnā€™t

There is no clearer way to say it. Letters from an American - April 13 @hcrichardson.bsky.social

If the U.S. government is going to take the position that, once removed from the United States, folks canā€™t be brought back, then it sure seems to me that federal courts should be reflexively and categorically barring *all* removals until theyā€™re 100 percent certain that the removals are lawful.

We are way past impeachment time

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.

Weā€™re sending the guy with 0 felony convictions to a horrible prison in El Salvador and keeping the guy with 34 to run the country? Insane.

They donā€™t care. They donā€™t care that the Supreme Court ruled 9-0 to bring an innocent man home to his family. They donā€™t care. They think itā€™s funny.

Paying taxes with tears in my eyes knowing what they're paying for - disappearing innocent people to a concentration camp in El Salvador. What have we become?

Many products sold in the U.S. are made in El Salvador. In response to the El Salvador presidentā€™s statements today, weā€™re calling for an immediate boycott of all Salvadoran-made goods. Please help by listing any products or brands made in El Salvador in the comments below.

Who is going to do something? This is Kim Jong-Un shit.

important context about the concentration camps in el salvador:

You don't get to deport whoever you want, wherever you want, whenever you want. That shit is not gonna fly.

Sanders: He now wants to take away CBSā€™s license because they did a story that criticized him. Oh my word, CBS criticized him! Oh, letā€™s drive them out of business, how terribleā€¦ If you canā€™t take criticism, get out of the political process. This is a democracy

The worst part of all this is: WEā€™VE BEEN HERE BEFORE. We know who this man is. There are no surprises in his conduct. Heā€™s a habitual liar in most interactions, but when it comes to telling the public how evil his mind is, heā€™s been very straightforward.

AOC: I was watching earlier today on TV, someone was saying, ā€œWhy are AOC and Bernie going to Idaho?ā€ Iā€™ll give you one simple answer: Itā€™s because you matter

Heā€™s threatening media companies who are critical of him. Heā€™s talking about sending Americans to foreign prisons. Heā€™s signing executive orders to investigate former staff members who spoke out against him. Heā€™s defying the Supreme Court. Donā€™t you see whatā€™s happening here?

AOC: When he talks about rapists and criminals, he should look in the mirror

In fairness, China's pronouncers of state propaganda have a much better game then America's.

"The security of the world is at stake." Well worth watching President Zelenskyy's interview on 60 Minutes www.cbsnews.com/news/ukraine...

I would not have predicted that large universities would show more courage than either Big Law or corporate media. Good for them.

So, the Trump admin was able to bring astronauts stuck in space back down to earth, but it wonā€™t lift a finger to bring a Maryland dad they ā€œoopsieā€ imprisoned in a gulag back from El Salvador? Do I have that just about right?

A president who has the power to send an innocent human being to a foreign concentration camp, but claims he lacks the power to bring them back, is committing the crime of false imprisonment.

The President of the United States engaged in insider trading, and laughed about it. He is not exempt from the law. Where the fuck is Congress?

Well then, fund managers must be very slow learners.
