🚨 Again, for those in the back. If the Senate bill passes a bill that includes the insidious provisions buried in the House GOP’s BB Bill, there will be no going back. The American Experiment will be over.

Raskin: If they can just sweep someone off the street, put them on an airplane, and send them to a torturer’s prison in an authoritarian state like El Salvador without due process… then they could do it to anybody.

Trump knows nothing and has read nothing. But I wonder if, growing up, he heard at home stories that I gather were current at the time in pro-German, Holocaust-minimizing circles, of alleged instances of humane treatment of the Jews in the camps?
