ICE agents *know* what they are doing is probably illegal, which is why they try to conceal their identities with scarves and sunglasses. #AmericanGestapo

Trump does a promo for properties he still owns and profits from: "There all on the ocean. I only have interest if they're on the ocean. We have good investments over there. Beautiful."

It's tough to refer to someone as a criminal if you've given them no due process to determine whether they're a criminal. Like if you get arrested and get a trial and are convicted of 34 felony counts. That's due process. You can call that guy a criminal.

The United States government kidnapped and disappeared Abrego Garcia and sent him to El Salvador, without due process.
As of today, the DOJ is defying the judge's order asking for his whereabouts and to facilitate his immediate return.
This is next level authoritarianism.

is it a fair read to say John Roberts tried to be cute with a lil 'all deliberate speed' and now Judge Xinis is like 'John you have no idea the speed with which I can deliberate'
Ensign: Due regard for the executive means at a minimum you are required to hear from executive in a written brief before any order could become effective again
Judge says no, that's not right, basically. "We're not gonna slow walk this," she says. "We're not re-litigating what SCOTUS put to bed."
