So who decides now if someone is a gang member or if someone has a valid asylum claim under the law? Tom Homan? A random ICE agent? A local Sheriff’s deputy? A neighbor? An informant? So they just say a person is in a gang and they get disappeared to a prison in El Salvador?

The Trump administration has expelled South Africa’s ambassador to the US for criticizing Elon Musk.
If you’re a rich white South African, you can do Hitler salutes and deny the Holocaust. But if you represent the Black government in South Aftica, you will be banned if you criticize that.

Trump and Elon Musk are trying to bring back the politics of apartheid in South Africa.
While the Black government tries to respond to racial inequity that left the 8% of the country that is white with nearly all the farmland, Trump and Musk want to ignore the 80% of South Africans who are Black.
