Bukele doesn't "have something" on Trump.

Trump isn't afraid to fight for Garcia's return. He doesn't want him returned.

Trump and Bukele are engaged in a mutually-beneficial authoritarian partnership designed to profit off the destruction of legal protections. That's it. It isn't that hard.

anyone who is acting like the US and el salvadore simply accidently deported the wrong people and can’t find them is lying because they don’t want to admit they rather like that fascistic deporting of political enemies into death camps is essentially legal now

After posting this video, I’ve already received emails from American military tech executives confirming that they have in fact lost their market overnight, and are now having to consider shuttering their doors.

The damage of “whiplash” policy is real.

We will not be distracted.
We will not be discouraged.
We’ve got our eyes on the prize.

And we will build the prosperous, free nation for all that we deserve.

The time to organize is now.

You don’t get to claim you love the Constitution while ignoring due process. It applies to everyone—not just the people you agree with.

The poster boy for Trump’s unpopular federal funding freeze is a deeply unlikable and outspoken guy, one who looks and talks like the stock villain in a TV drama about politics and who has a confirmation to a powerful role pending before the Senate.

Trump’s flourish of actions against the federal government are concerning and frightening in their own right, but we have to stress constantly that real, live human beings are being affected and hurt.

The lack of opposition is noticeable, but people also need advocates. They deserve help.
if any Democrats besides AOC want to weigh in about the misrule that's already been prevalent over this first week that'd be pretty cool

I get it when people say "well they voted for this, I hope they get what they deserve. "

I get that sentiment, i really do... But there are millions of people who DIDN'T vote for this, whose lives will be ruined. That's why I can't throw my hands up and say oh well. I keep fighting for them.
