Reveling in Terror Tactics open.substack.com/pub/america/... A disgusting authoritarian display of manipulative PR: A crass disregard of human rights. I am American. This action was NOT done in my name…. independent journalists verify this action captured innocent men used for a photo op.

Seeing Sec. Noem in that El Salvador prison reminds me of when in 2018 DHS led us through the epicenter of family separations to, as I told @errolmorris.bsky.social in SEPARATED, terrify families considering seeking asylum in the U.S. by showing them what Trump would do to them if they tried.

This is what courage looks like
This matters. Not because I think Trump is capable of mercy or empathy towards these vulnerable groups. But because it is a public act of defiance.

Contrast that with all these other powerful people in this country signaling nothing but appeasement and obedience.
Rev. Mariann Edgar Budde to Trump: "I ask you to have mercy upon the people in our country who are scared now. There are gay, lesbian, and transgender people in Democratic, Republican, and independent families, some who fear for their lives ... and the vast majority of immigrants are not criminals"

The first rule of authoritarian politics is that there’s only one source of authority.

Congress will be expected to give up its role in governing, particularly anything that restrains Trump’s choices and desires.
