The Trump administration isn't exporting our problems to Bukele's El Salvador. It's importing their principles. From today's @morningjoe-msnbc.bsky.social:

THREE EQUAL BRANCHES OF GOVERNMENT. It’s in our Constitution and at the very heart of our democracy. Article 3 establishes the judicial branch. It’s the job of judges to determine if the actions of the Administration violate our laws. Full. Stop. That’s how our democracy works.

Boasberg has game: "To permit officials to freely annul the judgments of the courts of the United States wd not just “destroy the rights acquired under those judgments”; it would make “a solemn mockery” of “the constitution itself.” (Marshall, C.J.). “So fatal a result must be deprecated by all.”

My mother was the epitome of kindness and generosity. She was a lifelong, devout Christian, and did her very best to live up to that standard. Not long after she died, I found in her desk a book called "2000 Questions About Me." She hadn't answered ALL the questions, but she did answer this one:

I’m sorry she lost her daughter—but Kilmar Garcia had nothing to do with it. She’s twisting two different stories. Mad her tax dollars sent Sen Van Hollen to El Salvador—but not mad they’re funding Kilmar’s indefinite imprisonment w/out due process? One more time: easier to be angry than informed.

DHS is threatening to revoke Harvard’s ability to host international students and the IRS is looking at revoking their tax exemption. The “stop the weaponization of government” crowd sure is quiet as fuck on this one.

The VA is having mental health clinicians work in cubicle farms and tell veterans they can’t guarantee their privacy because of SecVA’s asinine return to work order. There isn’t room! Veterans will suffer. That’s the real goal. Force VA to fail. The price? Veterans. Enough is enough.

How many people do you think have received threats from Trump, Musk & their goons? Thousands? This interview by Rachel Maddow was chilling. You must watch & share it because our government is being attacked from within! The bravery of Daniel Berulis is so inspiring. I hope it's contagious. 🧵

A judge has found probable cause to hold the Trump administration in contempt of court. One problem: the agency in charge of arresting officials for contempt is the US Marshals Service...which appears to be allied with Elon Musk.

Hegseth is systematically ushering people out of their offices at the #Pentagon and accusing them of “leaks.” Odd when Hegseth was the key leaker in #SignalGate and has yet to resign over that serious breach to #NationalSecurity. www.politico.com/news/2025/04...

It's pretty unconscionable that when Pam Bondi was asked to show proof against Kilmar Abrego Garcia, she said they have court transcripts. The Attorney General of the United States thinks that their allegations in court are EVIDENCE?! Vile.
