Abrego Garcia & MS-13. What do we know? The allegation seems to stem from double hearsay in a document authored by a later suspended detective. By me, in @lawfare . www.lawfaremedia.org/article/abre...

This was my classmate. He was a student in my ethics class, and we used to sit next to each other. Most dedicated person in the class to legitimate justice for all people. He legitimately cared. I am so horribly heartbroken

What we saw today was two jumped up thugs and their bootlicking sychophants laughing at the US Constitution, the supreme court, and the idea that anyone can stop them from doing anything they want www.theatlantic.com/politics/arc...

Since the Trump admin continues to claim Mr. Abrego Garcia is a gang member, I thought I'd take the time to put together a timeline, based on all the documents filed in court, which lays out all the "evidence" the government has ever offered. As you'll find out, there's very little "there" there!

Oh yes I’m sub-skeeting: It’s pretty fucking wild for a well-known person to disable QTs when someone QT’d under a Pen nom their critique re: Pen noms not refusing the nom in solidarity with Palestinians to then go on and QT an unknown in a weird mockery of their skeet. Bullies the lot of you.

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

If Stephen Miller can lie about Abrego Garcia and his case on national TV, he can do it in federal court under oath. Judge Xinis should demand his appearance, question him under oath, then jail him for Contempt when he commits Perjury. This lawless administration has to be subjected to rule of law.

They continue to violate a court order to retrieve someone they illegally deported. We’re now well beyond a constitutional crisis. If they’re allowed to do this, their secret police can sweep up anyone, for any reason, deport them & refuse to bring them back. That would be the end of democracy.

1/4. On the White House’s theory, if they abduct you, get you on a helicopter, get to international waters, shoot you in the head, and drop your corpse into the ocean, that is legal, because it is the conduct of foreign affairs.

We’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.

I know someone else has probably said this, but still here I am: What ELSE are they communicating via Signal? Probably things like the plan for “homegrowns” (to name one of the scary, but not scariest, things that could be discussed and then POOF disappeared.

Pro-natalists: you need to have at least 10 kids Normal people: why, are you expecting half of them to die before puberty due to lack of modern health and sanitation? Pro-natalists: you're never gonna believe what we also advocate

So essentially the president can do anything he wants, regardless of whether or not that’s his constitutional power, say no when told otherwise, and there’s really no mechanisms in this country to stop him? The branches of government and checks and balances were all just suggestions?

One of hundreds of people abducted by ICE and sold to slavery in El Salvador was a 19 year old with no criminal record in the US or Venezuela and no tattoos of any kind. An ICE kidnapper who grabbed him outside his house said, "He's not the one." The other said, "Take him anyway." So they did.

After today, there's zero reason for anybody to come to the USA for anything. Family? Meet them somewhere else. Business? Use Zoom. Vacation? Not worth it. Green Card holders and citizens with a dissident history should be looking at their options for leaving and not coming back.

Pam Bondi: “That’s up to El Salvador if they want to return him…If they wanted to return him, we would facilitate it, meaning provide a plane.” Nayib Bukele: “How can I return him to the U.S.? Like, I smuggle him into the U.S.?” No, you put him on the plane the AG just said the US would provide!

The U.S. says it doesn’t have the power to return Abrego Garcia. El Salvador also says it doesn’t have the power to return Abrego Garcia. It’s obvious bullshit and depraved to the core.

Letter from Dem Senator Chris Van Hollen (MD) requesting a meeting with Salvadoran President Nayib Bukele To discuss MD father Kilmar Abrego Garcia's return "If Kilmar is not home by midweek – I plan to travel to El Salvador this week to check on his condition and discuss his release."

Wouldn't it be nice if every news outlet that covered the Bukele Oval Office meeting noted: District court wrote: Abrego Garcia "has never been charged with or convicted of any crime."⤵️ Fourth Circuit: The government presented "NO EVIDENCE" of MS-13 affiliation. Abandoned argument before court. ⤵️

WOW. The Trump admin is attempting to strip a green card from a Buddhist Palestinian who's committed to nonviolence, just because he advocated on behalf of Palestinian human rights. Free speech is being trampled on by this administration.

What's funny is that this speaks directly to the govt's arguments about "facilitate"! Govt: The court can't make us retrieve Abrego Garcia because he's fully in El Salvador's control. "Facilitate" only means allowing him to return. Bukele: I can't return him, because the US would never allow it!

If the INA "rubs up against" the Constitution then the INA loses. This isn't a hard question!

This is the thing. It's absurd for them to try to say that the Constitution needs to stand back and watch the INA do its thing. If the INA is inconsistent with First Amendment rights then either it doesn't actually say what they think it does or Congress couldn't lawfully have enacted it.

The president of the United States and the president of El Salvador have conspired to kidnap a man and hold him hostage in an El Salvador prison. This criminality ignores the rule of law and thumbs its nose at a Supreme Court ruling to facilitate his return.

This is terrifying in America. ICE agents are showing up masked—these abductions must stop. If you’re going to detain someone, show your face, present a warrant, and proper ID. Disappearing people from their families without evidence or accountability isn’t law enforcement—it’s state-sponsored fear.

NO ONE should be sent to El Salvador, you baby-brained losers. My God.

This is a concession by the U.S. government that its “arrangement” with El Salvador is irrevocable. To me this has to be grounds to argue that the arrangement itself is unconstitutional under the Fifth and Eighth Amendments

A Christianity that gets offended at the idea of a society using its resources to care for one another is a Christianity that has abandoned Jesus a long time ago.
