Power to the judge!

Van Hollen says that he asked the VP of El Salvador why his government continues to hold Abrego Garcia even though he’s not charged with any crime and there’s no evidence that he’s MS-13. “His answer was that the Trump administration is paying the government of El Salvador to keep him at CECOT”

Before the election, I warned that there is no safe haven under authoritarianism. If they can ship Kilmar Abrego Garcia to a foreign prison—accused of no crime, with no trial—they can do it to anyone. Americans of conscience must stand against this now.

JUST IN: Judge finds 'probable cause' to hold U.S. in contempt over Alien Enemies Act deportations

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

Brave, courageous, powerful statement from Abrego Garcia's wife, Jennifer. Watch, cry a little, share and let's keep fighting everyone.

It took an extension to the extension of the extension, but after more than 3 years of negotiations, governments around the globe—but notably, not the United States—have finally agreed on a treaty to improve how the world prevents, prepares for, and responds to future pandemics. scim.ag/4lDYcLe

With all the videos of police illegally entering people’s home using intimidation & force to detain & deport American if not worse. Black peoples have dealt with that for centuries. It’s police brutality. That is beyond unconstitutional. That is why Colin Kaepernick knelt.… Now do you f’n get it?

I just landed in San Salvador a little while ago, and I look forward to meeting with the team at the U.S. embassy to discuss the release of Mr. Abrego Garcia. I also hope to meet with Salvadoran officials and with Kilmar himself. He was illegally abducted and needs to come home.

Van Hollen (an Episcopalian) discussed the potential leverage he brings to this situation in a separate interview (next skeet): "Congress has to approve funding from the U.S. to El Salvador, and I'm not gonna support one penny if this Marylander continues to be illegally detained there."

Goldman on Trump threatening to deport Americans to a gulag in El Salvador: "This is the stuff of dictators ... Republicans in Congress have completely acceded to his wishes and turned over all of their own authority to Donald Trump. There is no check and no balance from Congress."

New in PN: SCOTUS puts constitutional crisis in America's Easter basket "Thanks to the Court’s fecklessness, the judiciary is now back on a collision course with a Trump-shaped iceberg. But this time, instead of planeloads of faceless migrants, the case involves just one man: Kilmar Abrego Garcia."

Not a single American voted for this but also: they’re not hiding their fascism, are they?

I’m about to board my flight to El Salvador, where I hope to meet with senior government officials to discuss the return of Kilmar Abrego Garcia. I also hope to see Kilmar and check on his condition — and remind him that we won’t stop fighting until he’s home.

All schools in Spain will be legally obliged to serve fruit and vegetables as part of their lunches and fish at least once a week under new rules aimed at reducing the amount of fried and fatty food served to children.

We’re not sure what separates the Trump admin from the “terrorists” it claims to be fighting. You watch whats happening and can’t even process it—what the hell is going on is all we can think. Our Constitution grants everyone within this country the same legal protections, regardless of citizenship.

This country is becoming unrecognizable. What we’re seeing is state-funded fear. We’ve warned people: keep filming, go live on social media so these moments are documented and shared. This wasn’t a case involving masked ICE agents—but that’s happening too.

“It’s amazing that others in this room underwrote electing a man who, in the last week, single-handedly destroyed all of American science. It’s amazing how much good science you can destroy with $320 million and RFK Jr, very fast.” — Seth Rogen’s censored remarks presenting the Breakthrough Prize

AOC: I saw on Fox, Jeanine Pirro says that they found so many babies and two year olds and four year olds receiving social security. I got a notice for you Jeanine Pirro: those babies receive social security because their parents died. That’s not a waste. That’s humanity. That’s America.

My latest cartoon:

They have no problem sending SWAT into schools to grab migrant kids, but when it’s an active shooter they use those children as human shields.

Kilmar Abrego Garcia lived in Maryland with his wife and their three children, and has never been charged with any crime. The Department of Homeland Security issued him a work permit, and he joined a union, working full time as a sheet metal apprentice.

"I focus in today’s Substack not on the patent lawlessness of the Department’s response but on its monstrousness. The Admin’s prevailing view about the ultimate Kafkaesque nightmare they have imposed has been a mixture of indifference & enthusiasm." Monsters, Inc. open.substack.com/pub/harrylit...

What we all just witnessed had all the earmarks of a criminal conspiracy to deprive Abrego-Garcia of his constitutional rights, as well as an impeachable offense. The fraud scheme was a phony agreement engineered by the US to have Bukele say he lacks power to return Abrego Garcia and he won't do it.

Oh, it was *Zelensky* that started the war? Like when a bully claims their victim started the fight because their face hurt his fist?

There’s just so much shady shit in this story, but this really sticks out. Folks in NLRB’s IT unit were so freaked out by what they saw DOGE doing that they wanted to notify the Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency. Then this happened:

Irony is this idiot voted for the Orange Dictator. FAFO

"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...

Judge Xinis in Tuesday eve order homes in on key issue: "Abrego Garcia appears to remain inexplicably detained in CECOT." She cites text in written agreement with El Salvador showing US control: That detainees are kept in CECOT “pending the United States’ decision on their long-term disposition.”

Emily Ratajkowski says she’s ‘disgusted’ by the Blue Origin space trip: “Look at the state of the world and think about how many resources went into putting these women in space… for what?”

"Within minutes after DOGE accessed the NLRB's systems, someone with an IP address in Russia started trying to log in ... Whoever was attempting to log in was using one of the newly created DOGE accounts — and the person had the correct username and password"

Abrego Garcia's wife: "I will not stop fighting until I see my husband alive. Kilmar, if you can hear me, stay strong. God hasn't forgotten about you. Our children are asking when you will come home ... they miss their dad so much."

Two dick-tators

I see it. I have lived it. 83 years ago, the U.S. government turned upon a group of its own citizens and residents and sent them to internment camps without due process. I was there among them. American fascism is back. It is here. It is now.
