Tomorrow’s going to be a good stress test of the press. El Salvadoran President Bukele will visit the White House. At the press availability, every Q ought to be about Abrego Garcia: where is he now? Did US ask you to return him? etc. WH will hate, maybe try to prevent, so all should band together.

Marco Rubio just announced 10 more people were sent to be imprisoned in CECOT. They were flown there from Gitmo to be imprisoned potentially for life based not on any crime for which they were convicted, but on unproven allegations of gang membership with no due process.

This is not lawful.

Booker: "This isn't just about Mr. Garcia. This is about every American understanding that this president is making an assault on the due process rights that are afforded to people in our country ... you cannot disappear people off American streets."

Chasten and I are relieved that Governor Shapiro and his family are safe. While we wait to learn more, this much is clear: the targeting of a public official and his family - especially a prominent Jewish official on a major Jewish holiday - is unconscionable and has no place in our country.

"Denmark, which controls Greenland, is not doing its job and it's not being a good ally. How are we going to solve that problem? If that means we need to take more territorial interest in Greenland, that is what President Trump is going to do because ⤵️

Reports have appeared on Russian Telegram channels that Russian general Lapin, commander of the North group, may have gone missing or have been killed in Belgorod region of Russia.

This information hasn't been verified and needs confirmation.

Insanity - and the VP’s wife leads the delegation?!?!?!!
A US delegation has landed in Greenland. It consists of US National Security Adviser Mike Waltz, Usha Vance (wife of Vice President JD Vance), US Energy Secretary Chris Wright. Mrs. Vance leads the delegation.

I feel confident in predicting history will judge this decade or so as the absolutely stupidest time in American history.

Honestly our kids and grandkids will read about this time and be shocked that adults existed.

I could write up why there’s no constitutional problem with the President using an auto-pen to sign official documents—or I could just post the 30-page 2005 opinion by George W. Bush’s Office of Legal Counsel that explains why in lots of detail.

I choose the latter:

Once you establish that people can be punished because the administration doesn't like their speech, expanding the bounds of who can be treated that way becomes inevitable.

The Trump administration moved one large step closer to a constitutional showdown with the judicial branch of government when airplane-loads of Venezuelan detainees deplaned in El Salvador even though a federal judge had ordered that the planes reverse course and return the detainees to the U.S.
With Deportations, Trump Steps Closer to Showdown With Judicial Branch
“Oopsie … Too late,” El Salvador’s president said, mocking a court order that deportation flights to his country turn back to the United States. Top administration officials thanked him.

I know this first hand. When I was a child, my entire community was branded as spies and sabateurs, justifying our internment inside barbed wire camps for years without due process, trial or charge.

It is not as stated about deporting immigrants who came across the Southern Border, that is happening regardless — it is actually about detaining Canadian and British nationals, which has already begun, for war across the Northern Border.
