We are facing a serious threat to democracy, law, and liberty. The abuse of prosecutorial power to intimidate, investigate, and detain political opponents is upon us. It is a constitutional crisis. I will keep speaking out until public outrage overflows. I just hope it’s not too little, too late.

The Trump administration on Sunday evening doubled down on its assertion that a federal judge cannot force it to bring back to the U.S. a Maryland man who was unlawfully deported to a notorious prison in El Salvador last month.
Trump officials renew opposition to ruling on Maryland man wrongly deported to El Salvador
The Justice Department’s latest legal filing asserted that courts cannot direct President Trump’s foreign policy by forcing the return of a man unlawfully sent to a Salvadoran prison.
