Not to state the obvious, but none of them were sent to a terrorist prison in El Salvador. They all had lawyers, indictment by grand jury, a trial or a guilty plea where a judge ensured it was knowing & voluntary & access to an appeals process. In other words, all the hallmarks of due process.

SAME for ALL journalist that haven't been HAIR ON FIRE against trump over the last EIGHT YEARS
The oligarchs are now proud to support a fascist bc he’s good for business. When Trump turns on them— and he will— they have no one to blame but themselves
Jeff Bezos said he is "proud" of his decision to block the Washington Post's endorsement of Harris (which the publisher of the paper initially suggested he had nothing to do with) and "very optimistic" about the Trump presidency and Trump's plans "around reducing regulation"

Trump falsely claimed that leaders in other countries are “emptying out their prisons and jails” to send migrants to America. But what is true is that Trump is “emptying our prisons and jails” to fill his cabinet.
