The White House today indicated that it will defy a US Supreme Court order to facilitate the return of a Maryland man who was “mistakenly” deported to El Salvador.
This is the constitutional crisis we’ve been warning about.

SO JUST TO RECAP:
1. The Supreme Court rules against Trump 9-0.
2. He flies in the dictator of El Salvador specifically to say he won't return Kilmar Abrego Garcia in front of the whole world. Is this supposed to be evidence for the Supreme Court?
3. The timing indicates a high level of concern.

Mahmoud Khalil was here legally. Detained.

Kilmar Abrego Garcia was here legally. Detained & deported.
MAGAs don't want "legal" immigration. They want to stop non-white immigration—just like pre-1965. "AGAIN" in MAGA always meant reviving Jim Crow America.

Our fascist government put a third-grader in handcuffs.
A mother and her three children were snatched by ICE from a dairy farm in Sackets Harbor, a rural town in northern New York.
But the location is no coincidence—Tom Homan, Trump’s border czar, LIVES THERE. He allowed his own neighbors, including a third grader, to be jailed. Deplorable.

Gutting the Dept. of Education would be devastating to our nation's students — and our teachers.
MAGA Republicans have been waging a war on public school teachers for years.
They want public schools to fail so they can pour the money into private, for-profit schools.

The Republican War On Teachers | Robert Reich
Republicans aren’t afraid of “Critical Race Theory,” they are afraid of critical thinking. They know the biggest threat facing their party is a new multi-racial generation of young people unafraid to speak truth to power. That’s why they are waging a war on America’s teachers.
