There is a maximum amount of time each day you're supposed to focus on the world's problems instead of your own, after which you have a legitimate need for therapy on your thought processes being self-destructive. At some point you have to stop scrubbing your hands you are bleeding into the sink.

one of the more blatant, in your face fascistic moments trumps 2nd term has had yet, and that’s saying something. they are telling us they love that they are openly doing crimes against humanity. if the world doesn’t prosecute every single person involved in this, it will be a failure of humanity

The Democratic response to this kind of thinking is asking Republicans if they will finally turn on him versus condemning all of them for having this same mindset
Trump says he'd like to deport US citizens to El Salvador: "I'd like to go a step further. I don't know what the laws are, we always have to obey the laws, but we also have homegrown criminals that push people into subways... I'd like to include them in the group of people to get out of the country"

Again, the contract the US signed with El Salvador directly says that the long term disposition of those it sends to El Salvador is at the discretion of the US.
El Salvador is a contractor providing the United States with a paid service. The idea that we couldn’t get anyone they’re holding back with the snap of a finger just by asking is so ludicrous on its face, it seems less like a real excuse and more like a test of how much shit the courts will eat.
Pam Bondi: “That’s up to El Salvador if they want to return him…If they wanted to return him, we would facilitate it, meaning provide a plane.”

Nayib Bukele: “How can I return him to the U.S.? Like, I smuggle him into the U.S.?”

No, you put him on the plane the AG just said the US would provide!
