Also Trusk supporters like to say shit like “if you weren’t crying about the constitution the last 4 years you can’t say anything now”

am I missing something? What unconstitutional thing did Biden do. What court orders did he defy?  Who did he send to a prison in another country for committing the crime of….just being here?

Biden's a democrat so obviously he pushed as much legislation as humanly possible to have guns banned.

Or maybe it's the "religious liberty" to discriminate against LGBT, women, and Muslims.

I'm feeling nervous about the Democratic senator flying to El Salvador . . . for some reason it reminds me of the Jonestown massacre, where a Democratic representative flew down to Guyana and got murdered.

There are parallels to be made here . . . MAGA is a cult and there are still many people who will drink the Kool Aid.

He’s dead.  The deported guy is dead.

[discolé monade]

dead. like i said, that poor soul is dead. 

now, the question remains. what are we, the people, going to do? nothing most likely, but this will continue, and now 47 is seeking to deport us citizens, that the regime deems unfit for the u.s.

i wish i could say this doesn't bother me. but it bothers me. i am 'brown' no one in this hick town knows i'm NOT hispanic, any military review of my records will show i once held a hispanic last name through marriage. i'm outspoken, a FAFO kind of gal, and i'm running for commissioner. and i have tatoos.

normally this is nothing. normally this would be shrugged off as 'she's batshit crazy, look at her tinfoil chapeau', but i have a few enemies here, and it wouldn't be past these assholes to call ICE for the shits and giggles. 

yes, i'm absolutely being paranoid.

Garcia isn’t coming back. Even if he’s alive, they will not allow it because it will be an admission of being wrong, which they never do. Ultimately he, nor anyone else, is getting justice here.

Each time this administration goes to court,  they can’t produce any evidence. Just like in 2020 with the election denials. Not one lawyer produced a shred of evidence to support any of their claims.

that is not going to happen. the law offices are stacked now. they are only going to cover their collective asses. 

and the u.s. citizen will sit quietly by, while their family , friends and coworkers get dragged off to the 'gestapo' and placed on 'transport' to the 'stalag'

Amid a tumultuous and controversial campaign of executive orders targeting major law firms, the Justice Department is now adding the American Bar Association to its target list, according to a memo obtained by CBS News. 

In the memo dated Friday and shared with Justice Department employees, Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche ordered that "the Department of Justice will no longer use taxpayer funds to pay for any travel to or engagement with ABA events. Additionally, department employees may not, when acting in their official capacities, speak at, attend, or otherwise participate in events hosted by the ABA." 

The memo from Blanche, who previously served as Trump's private defense attorney, blasts the American Bar Association as "activist" and willing to "insert itself into pending litigation." The ABA is a professional organization for lawyers, judges and law students in the U.S., and with about 400,000 members, it's the largest voluntary professional organization for lawyers in the world.

The Trump administration has significantly dialed up its pressure on Harvard University, not only freezing $2 billion in federal funding but now threatening its eligibility to host international students after school leaders refused to make key policy changes the White House also is demanding of other elite US colleges.

Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem sent Harvard "a scathing letter demanding detailed records on Harvard's foreign student visa holders' illegal and violent activities by April 30, 2025, or face immediate loss of Student and Exchange Visitor Program (SEVP) certification," her agency said Wednesday in a news release that refers to antisemitism but does not detail specific incidents.

The letter, which the government did not immediately release, accuses Harvard of creating a "hostile learning environment" for Jewish students, the Harvard Crimson student newspaper reported, adding, "It is a privilege to have foreign students attend Harvard University, not a guarantee."

Harvard is aware of the letter and stands by its previous statement it "will not surrender its independence or relinquish its constitutional rights," a spokesperson said late Wednesday.

Does that affect you in any way, pat. Words are hard.

The bar association thing i mean....wth, Harvard too. I'll just assume you went there until you say so.

Edited Thursday at 02:07 PM by André Toulon

[Raptorpat]

I didn't got to Harvard, I am way too dumb.

The Bar Association thing, there is the national association (ABA), state associations, and local associations. It's a voluntary entity separate from being admitted to the bar. I'm only a member of the state association, so it doesn't impact me directly. But the concept is that the ABA is pooling together legal talent it represents from across the spectrum to speak in a somewhat authoritative voice. If the ABA is getting involved the reaction should probably be "I bet they're going to make some good points" but fascist wannabes believe in silencing countervailing viewpoints etc.

I can’t wait to hear the story on the news about how Melania Trusk got a letter demanding she self deport from the country. Read a couple of articles where citizens are receiving such letters telling them to leave 

[1pooh4u]

Reading and hearing more about the Leticia James situation now the DoJ and Bondi are saying they received a letter claiming she possibly committed mortgage fraud. Zero percent chance that letter didn’t come from Trump.

I can’t believe they’re giving that shit the time of day. How could the SCOTUS possibly decide that the lower courts had no right to place an injunction on an unconstitutional order?

They've been doing a lot of unbelievable stuff lately, but I agree that even considering this is a new level of ridiculous, especially when the republicans had no problem relying on nationwide injunctions to slow or stop a bunch of Biden and Obama policies. It was fine then, but suddenly it's not okay?

I can't see them winning this argument though cuz it would just cause massive irreparable harm by opening up an incredible amount of people to deportation and be just a logistical nightmare if everyone potentially targeted by this administrations lawless acts was required to get an individual stay to protect themselves. As if there wasn't enough litigation flying around already because of all the insanity they've wrought.

Sipping margaritas? What a load. That part certainly seems like bullshit at least. Looks like water to me. If you check the picture Van Hollen posted in fact, you can see a water bottle there on the table.

Yeah it was Bukele just being a dick and mocking people's concern about Garcia's health and safety. Kind of pathetic that the Post would misleadingly print the garbage he said as if it was being spoken at all seriously.

He's been released now. Never should have happened in the first place. Hopefully the courts keep pushing back against this stuff or else this could become the new normal soon.

[1pooh4u]

The FBI is accusing Abrego García of human trafficking because he was working in construction and his boss probably told him to get workers. He was pulled over in a traffic stop in a vehicle that had 7 or 8 other migrants in it. They accuse García of pretending to speak less English than he’s actually capable, driving with an expired license and because he said he has been traveling from TX to MD w other migrants that had no luggage, that’s the human trafficking part of the accusations. It’s fuckin nonsense. The administration admits it made an error but now they act as though that claim was untrue and the charges against him are valid. It’s crazy is what it is.

They've been pretty successful with just saying "oops!" so far and almost everyone shrugging and moving on. I guess everyone saw it worked with Elon when he fired and rehired the people with the nukes and other similar crap. Now it's just "oops!" all the time and nothing happens. Maybe someone on trial for murder should just say "oops!" because it worked for the president. "He wound up in front of my gun at the moment I pulled the trigger while he was running for his life .... oops!"

Every accusation a confession.

Human trafficking is a gop thing. Abbott and DeSantis both happily trafficked humans for political points - dropping off immigrants in the middle of the night in winter in northern areas. Children separated from the families at the border during the first shit-term were sent off to 'private' detention centers with no full records kept of who went where - kids were being found in child sex rings and probably still would be except I guess that isn't super important to hunt down anymore or report on. There's probably a bunch more that are working the overnight shifts in factories and meat packing plants. And now they are actively rounding up anyone who looks or thinks wrong and sending them out of the country to a prison to be sold off or killed because who cares. Hell, Gaetz trafficked underaged girls across state lines for sex and Princess Tinyhands was ready to have him in the cabinet before things got too hot and Gaetz had to run for it. 

Unfortunately, expect the crazy to ramp up even more because he did NOT get good news at the physical. He kept morosely talking about how he has a great heart and great soul before the 'official' release which is so obviously faked out only the cult members could believe it. If he's 6'3 and 224, I'm at least 6'1 and 110. And my boobs are full of helium.
