THIS IS OUTRAGEOUS. First Trump illegally sent a child’s father to be imprisoned without trial or due process in El Salvador. Then ICE grabbed her mother to be deported to Venezuela. But despite the mom saying she wanted to leave with her daughter, ICE is keeping the baby!

A US citizen with a learning disability who has just suffered a medical emergency asks a CBP officer for directions outside the emergency room. He ends up detained in an icebox for ten days and has the assistant secretary of DHS lying about him to the public at large. popular.info/p/us-citizen...

A Tennessee state trooper stopped Mr. Abrego driving a van with a bunch of other people and suspected it was human trafficking. He then … let them all go and didn’t even issue a citation? And they claimed that this is a big scandal. Honestly sounds like a case of driving while Hispanic.

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.

Since the Trump admin continues to claim Mr. Abrego Garcia is a gang member, I thought I'd take the time to put together a timeline, based on all the documents filed in court, which lays out all the "evidence" the government has ever offered. As you'll find out, there's very little "there" there!

It is legally impossible to deport citizens. This is not deportation. Removing citizens to foreign prisons, knowing to a certainty that they will be subjected to treatment that violates the U.S. constitution, doesn’t deserve any label that connotes legal legitimacy.

What an absolute joke. Everyone here is pretending. Bukele is pretending that he's incapable of releasing someone his own jail is holding at US expense, and Trump is pretending he can't just ask Bukele to release the guy. And meanwhile, Mr. Abrego rots in prison.

This is why tonight's decision is an absolute joke. The five justices had the gall to suggest that they were somehow charting a middle ground by holding (in THIS procedural posture?) that people must be given a "reasonable time" to file a habeas lawsuit - AS IF EVERYONE IN DETENTION CAN DO THAT?

Hard to watch: @newsweek.com posted footage of masked ICE agents arresting 50-year-old grandmother Angela Gonzalez, who'd been here since she was 11. She had a pending VAWA application, but other than that, had no options for a green card since she got here too late for the Reagan amnesty.

Sending a Russian dissent back to Russia to be tortured and/or killed perfectly encapsulates this loathsome administration’s lack of American values.

NEW: @motherjones.com reports that one of the men renditioned to El Salvador is Neri Alvarado, who was working in Dallas as a baker. An ICE agent told him they were questioning all men with tattoos. Neri has an AUTISM AWARENESS TATTOO in honor of his 15-year-old brother with autism.

Unidentified men grabbing someone off the street and putting her in a car because she wrote an op-Ed. This as flatly authoritarian as anything we’ve seen in this country in a very long time.

it is BUCK WILD that they are just texting this shit to each other

Pete Hegseth is the guy in high school who brags about having so much sex and then embarrasses himself in front of everyone when he accidentally leaves the school PA mic on and leaks top secret war plans to the entire school

Pete Hegseth keeps texting me that I have unpaid EZ Pass tolls

You cannot make this shit up. Sharing this jaw-dropping story with a gift link -- give it a read.

We’re doing Abu Ghraib and Guantanamo again, except both at once, and to random dads and barbers abducted off the streets of America for the crime of being Latino

NEW: According to the @nytimes.com, the Trump administration is planning to argue that its invocation of the Alien Enemies Act allows it to enter the homes of any person who they believe are subject to the declaration WITHOUT A WARRANT. www.nytimes.com/2025/03/20/u...

44 years later, Trump still remembers which of the cats from Cats he wanted to bone

They want the unreviewable power to grab people and render them to a foreign gulag.

This is outrageous. Judge Boasberg’s order went against government agencies which were in the US, and which were in direct contact with the plane. He must hold them in contempt of court.

Nayib Bukele just said that 238 people he claimed were members of TdA arrived in El Salvador TODAY. This may mean that DHS did NOT adhere to Judge Boasberg's order that planes in the air be turned back. If so, it would be--by far--the biggest act of defiance against a judge's order.

One of the people seemingly deported to El Salvador unlawfully under the Alien Enemies Act had a court hearing scheduled for TOMORROW where he was going to present evidence that he was not a member of Tren de Aragua. Now he may be in an Salvadoran prison. Due process matters.

Watching a man get disappeared for political dissent in the middle of the United States, as the opposition party agrees to give the tyrant a blank check to do whatever he wants

A YES on cloture is a YES for the bill. Do not let anyone play games with you.

I think some in the Senate have convinced themselves that the backlash to folding will be limited to “the left” and therefore ignorable. Those people are deeply and profoundly misreading the moment and the stakes. Virtually every swing district House Dem walked the plank to vote NO for a reason.

The "F.U.R.R.I.E.S ACT" bill from Stan Gerdes (R-Smithville) would prohibit "non-human behavior" in Texas schools, including but not limited to: -Litterboxes -Tails -"Leashes, collars, other accessories designed for pets" -"Barking, meowing, hissing, or other animal noises" -"licking oneself"

This likely confirms that the decision to arrest him was made at the highest levels of government, a terrifying return to the policies of ideological exclusion last seen used during the heights of the Cold War. A very, very worrying precedent at the start of this government.

Let's be really really clear. The Trump admin chose a Palestinian activist as the target of its first lawless political detention precisely BECAUSE they believe that will split the opposition. If you shrug at the abduction of Mahmoud Khalil, or worse, cheer it on, you're following Trump's script.

Trudeau: "We're probably gonna keep booing the American anthem. But let me tell Americans: we're not booing you ... we're booing a policy that is designed to hurt us. And we're insulted ... we're gonna fight. And we're gonna win."

* TRUMP SAYS ALL FEDERAL FUNDING WILL STOP FOR COLLEGES AND SCHOOLS THAT ALLOWS "ILLEGAL" PROTESTS @reuters.com

Good morning. It's now 12:01 AM. The largest US tariff hike in a century has officially gone into effect—25% on Mexican imports, 25% on Canadian imports (except energy at 10%), & now 20% on Chinese imports. Canadian retaliation on $21B in US exports has also just gone into effect

I know it is a “dig” at Trump to call Elon the co-president, but it gives Elon a sense of credibility he should not have.

in california they let dogs play basketball. teams of nothing but golden retrievers. they're pushing the human children out of sports because the rulebook doesn't explicitly say they can't play.

Trump: "Tomorrow, tariffs -- 25 percent on Canada and 25 percent on Mexico. And that'll start."

again, there is no meaningful way to sue a federal officer for constitutional violations and it's because the Court decided there shouldn't be
