When Rep. Adriano Espaillat began to see reports of Puerto Ricans and other citizens being questioned and arrested by ICE agents, he demanded answers from the Trump administration. That was more than 10 weeks ago. He has not received a response. By @nicolefoy.bsky.social

I want to tell you why the case of Kilmar Abrego Garcia should matter to you. The one power you cannot give the executive is the ability to imprison or expel anyone regardless of their legal rights. That is our key check against autocracy. And we are watching it disappear.

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 don't know how you can listen to this woman and not be doing everything in your power to bring him home. The Trump administration and Bukele's government are clearly using terror as a weapon against innocent people to scare us into submission. Kilmar Abrego Garcia deserves due process in the U.S.

Is this administration so weak that Donald Trump and JD Vance can’t ask El Salvador to return someone they deported in error & have confidence El Salvador will honor their request? That would be a shocking fall in status for the United States.

I've been clear: if President Bukele doesn't want to meet here in D.C., then I intend to go to El Salvador this week to check on Kilmar Abrego Garcia's condition and discuss his release. Kilmar was illegally ABDUCTED and deported by the Trump Admin. He must be brought home NOW.

Career officials at the Internal Revenue Service were pressed by Trump officials and DOGE staffers to hand over access to sensitive taxpayer data to immigration agencies, but repeatedly refused, telling their new overseers that doing so would be illegal. Trump and Musk barreled ahead anyway.

The 22nd Amendment says it plain: “No person shall be elected to the office of the president more than twice.” Bannon on Bill Maher, straight-up said Trump’s going for a 3rd term — and they’ve got a “team” working to circumvent the Constitution. They’re not joking. They’re plotting. Believe them.
