This is an obvious point, but cannot overstated. There is an enormous difference between deporting someone - where they get off a plane as a free citizen in their home country AND FUNNELING THEM INTO A BRUTAL PRISON FROM WHICH THEY HAVE NO CHANCE OF EVER EMERGING!!!

I said my main goal of this trip was to meet with Kilmar. Tonight I had that chance. I have called his wife, Jennifer, to pass along his message of love. I look forward to providing a full update upon my return.

Jessica Tarlov: “President Bukele is lying when he says he can't get him back. We know he can return people because he returned people from the original shipment. There were women that were sent there and he said, ‘you shouldn't be here.’”

It's never about the science. It's always about having a legal basis for your fear and hatred of other people.
My husband has taught human reproduction and development to the Cambridge medics for over three decades. When people start banging on about "only two biological sexes" he starts with "which sex: genetic, hormonal, or gonadal"?

Biological sex is not binary. www.scientificamerican.com/article/sex-...
Sex Redefined: The Idea of 2 Sexes Is Overly Simplistic
Biologists now think there is a larger spectrum than just binary female and male

ATTENTION!

If you reposted a meme that called out Trump for his endless shitstorm of lies;

If you expressed abject outrage at Elon for plundering OUR GOVERNMENT AGENCIES;

If you screamed FUCK YOU, MAGA! alone inside an elevator;

YESTERDAY YOUR VOICE WAS HEARD IN CONGRESS!

TODAY WE DO IT AGAIN!
