    Man, I don’t even know where to get truthful news anymore. I try to keep up with both sides so I know what their narratives are, and stories like this one are fucking impossible to get to the truth of. Either way, it’s fucking horrific that people are being sent to Death Camps without any kind of due process, but the amount of misinformation doesn’t help.

    Is he openly violating the Supreme Court, or did the Supreme Court decide “facilitate” means nothing can be done if El Salvador doesn’t want to release him? Even reading the order directly, it’s not clear. If Trump is NOT absolutely violating a direct Supreme Court order, then isn’t continuing to focus on it a distraction from the bigger issue?

    Is he an innocent father, or was he a twice convicted gang member who was awaiting a trial that he was likely to be found guilty of anyways? Or were those convictions not actually convictions and only claims from a dubious source?

    Is he an El Salvador citizen? If so, why was he rounded up with a bunch of Venezuelans?

    Again, nothing is right about this situation, but I’m also sick of the waters being so muddy that I don’t even know what’s true anymore.

    I read that wrong as in he gave them the man’s severed middle finger. Honestly I think they may as well have, no one who goes to El Salvador is intended tonne kept alive.

    WASHINGTON — Sen. Chris Van Hollen announced that he will travel to El Salvador on Wednesday to push for the release of Kilmar Abrego Garcia, a man who the Justice Department said it mistakenly deported. Hopefully we hear something soon. This is so fucked up. This is evil.

      They have already ruled that what he is doing is legal. Why would they issue a warrant?

    The more they fight this the more I am convinced he is already dead.

    If they openly come out and say it the conservative media will tell us he deserved it. They already dehumanize anyone who is different why not go all out at this point?

      Honestly I don’t think he’s dead, as soon as he gets back he’ll start talking about the horrible conditions and that will be headline news for God knows how long. That would be terrible for the administration and Republicans in general. If he was dead they could blame the prison for not protecting him and shift the blame. But at least he couldn’t tell the American people what he saw and experienced.

      If he’s coming back, it’s in a box.

      I’m not sure if he’s still alive, but I think the administration wants to win the battle that they don’t have to him back, then the next one will be someone who doesn’t even have “alleged” ties to whatever, and finally it will be U.S. citizens that Trump just doesn’t like - poor, brown, Democrat - you know the list.

      But if they lose step one they can’t even try step two.

    Ok, enough of the Fuck Around stage. Can we move to the Find Out part now? He pissed off the Supreme Court, the one group everyone thought was in his pocket.

      This is the same Supreme Court that ruled less than a year ago that he is legally able to do whatever he wants in his official capacity as president. Why do you think they are pissed off?

      It would be pretty immature to give POTUS absolute power and then get offended when he uses it.

      We’re there. Here’s a list of things that will happen to Trump:

      What is the Supreme Court going to do? Even if Sotomayor whipped out a baton, marched down to the oval office herself, and took him into custody, what would happen?

      Let alone him having permission FROM THE SUPREME COURT to do whatever the fuck he wants.

        That’s the problem, the Supreme Court has relied on the Executive branch for enforcement. They have no enforcement mechanism if the whole Executive branch is compromised
