How long before Trump tells us we don’t need three meals a day and we could be just as happy with one or two?

This is your regular reminder that executive orders are not royal decrees. Because America has no king.

This is the kind of thing that, if true, leads to life sentences for treason

All of these men are being illegally detained in a foreign gulag. They weren't deported. They were illegally imprisoned.

This is the face of fascism. Look at it.

Mr. Abrego Garcia was illegally abducted by the Trump Admin and, by their own admission, wrongly deported to El Salvador. He shouldn’t have to spend another second away from his family.

I'm flying to El Salvador tomorrow morning to check on his condition and discuss his return.

Hopefully, it’s clear to everyone now, Trump is purposely destroying our country from the inside for Putin.
It’s the only thing that has ever made sense of every single decision he’s made.

The notorious mega-prison in El Salvador is in every way a concentration camp and the MAGA and is now sponsoring it as well as threatening to send any American of their choosing there. Fuck you to anyone who chose this immoral inhuman barbaric monster.

Donald Trump is deporting legal US residents to a foreign gulag, and he has stated publicly that he is moving on to citizens next. This is a Constitutional crisis. Will a single Republican stand up for our Constitution?

I'll say it again: in a country where due process is individually denied and then broadly eroded and eventually eliminated, being a citizen will not protect you from the terror of this administration.

That’s illegal. FYI. No - Pam Bondi won’t do anything.
JUST IN: CIA confirms that when it scanned Director Ratcliffe's phone for Signalgate messages, they were gone.

Folks who are citizens of other countries and are considering travel to the United States for a vacation or work or whatever:

I strongly advise against it. You will not have protection from the illegal actions of this administration. It's not worth it. Don't roll the dice by traveling here.

AOC: I was watching earlier today on TV, someone was saying, “Why are AOC and Bernie going to Idaho?”

The court system is a coequal branch of government. If the administration isn’t going to follow their orders it’s time to hold some senior officials in contempt.

If President Trump can wrongly deport a Maryland father to a prison in El Salvador and then defy a 9-0 Supreme Court order to facilitate bringing him home, who’s next?

This threatens the rights and freedoms of everyone in the United States.

When did this happen in the past? Oh, during the rise of the Nazi's in Germany
One of hundreds of people abducted by ICE and sold to slavery in El Salvador was a 19 year old with no criminal record in the US or Venezuela and no tattoos of any kind.

An ICE kidnapper who grabbed him outside his house said, "He's not the one."

The other said, "Take him anyway."

So they did.

And this very same Supreme Court gave him immunity.
Trump is defying a 9-0 Supreme Court ruling against him. The Constitutional Crisis is no longer some abstract idea, it's right here staring us in the face.
