Donald Trump has illegally invoked The Alien Enemies Act of 1798, a wartime authority, to detain and deport Venezuelan immigrants he deems to be members of criminal gang Tren de Aragua.
This was last invoked during WWII to justify the internment of Japanese-Americans.

American politics makes a lot more sense when you realize that the GOP is afraid of pissing off the GOP base, and the Dems are afraid of pissing off the GOP base, but neither party is afraid of pissing off the Dem base.

📌On the debate stage in 2016:
TRUMP: “Putin said nice things about me. He has no respect for her ... and I’ll tell you what, we’re in very serious trouble.”
HILLARY CLINTON: ”Well that's because he'd rather have a puppet as president of the United States.”
FACT CHECK: She was 100% correct.

We just walked out of the state of the Union. My shirt showed Trump an important message: NO KINGS LIVE HERE.
In the spirit of student protestors from the Civil Rights Movement, I’m proud to have protested and walked out with many of my colleagues. This is NOT a normal time.

“Journalists need to stop accepting this false frame from Trump that he is trying to negotiate a peace deal between Ukraine and Putin. He is not. He is throwing the Ukrainians under the bus and embracing Putin. That is NOT mediation.”
