I'm not going to stop saying this. We need to stop calling it "deporting." It may not always be fair or humane, but deportation has a process. And it means you're sent back to where you came from. These people are being trafficked and sold to slave prisons. Not deported.
Leavitt confirmed that the WH is working on deporting US citizens to El Salvador

I had missed Slotkin’s response last night, but one of my kids sent it to me this morning because it is spreading on TikTok. This is about the best rebuttal I can remember. A star is born!

This should be the end of his remarks and Marshall's retreat. Probably the last town hall he'll do for a long time--except for his fundraisers in Florida.
