Exactly. And if he had committed a thousand crimes, it wouldn’t be a heavy lift to prove just one. But DHS and the White House offer nothing but conclusory bullshit.
It's not relevant whether Abrego Garcia has committed thousands of crimes. Disappearing him off to an El Salvadorean maximum security prison *without due process* is wholly illegal totalitarian bullshit. Everyone who has been sent there by this administration should be brought back, not just him.

Adolf Hitler's “Mein Kampf” is still on U.S. Naval Academy shelves. “I Know Why the Caged Bird Sings” and “Memorializing the Holocaust” are not.
An order by Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth’s office led to a purge of books that are critical of racism — but preserved volumes defending white power.

BREAKING: The Court has folded. The Trump administration wins.
As expected.
Shame on those major-media journalists who falsely told the public yesterday that the Supreme Court order upheld rule of law.
In fact, it facilitated this travesty of justice today. It is unlikely Garcia will ever return.

No!
Stop this, major media!
That’s _not_ what just happened!
DOJ at _no_ point made _any_ commitment to “bring Garcia home,” nor did it ask for “more time” to “bring Garcia home.”
It said that Garcia is in the custody of El Salvador and the court has no jurisdiction there.
Get it right, dammit!

Opinion | In three consecutive elections, the Republicans have nominated a 6x bankrupt sexual abuser who is now a convicted felon. But in four of the past five elections, the Democrats have nominated a woman and/or minority. Our two-party system is broken.

Ok sorry but getting on my soapbox to say that this isn’t a u-turn or a 180 or even a pause on tariffs.
The MASSIVE tariffs are gone but BIG tariffs are still in place. And more so than before last week.
