I’d believe it all except you leave out any details. Almost like this is a canned response for any allegation of ICE detaining Puerto Ricans. Because to be clear, a simple Google search reveals there are multiple allegations of multiple instances.

No amount of sane washing is going to push this under the rug.

The official attitudes about this are interesting. In some countries they’re more worried about protecting the privacy of the accused. In other countries they identify the accused because they’re worried about people being disappeared.

Dude. He’s already breaking the laws by sending people directly to CECOT. He’s ignoring court orders and the need to get an order of removal for people. They’re arresting people just for speaking Spanish without having a passport on them, like that Puerto Rican family.

If they’re ignoring all the rules for people who can’t pony up citizenship paperwork in time then there’s nothing stopping them from quickly deporting a natural born citizen. Hell, anyone on the street without documents on their person is a valid target under the observed tactics.

They are not being honest with you.

The NG can be used as law enforcement by the Governors though. That’s a legitimate training for them to get …

Wow, nothing like a shove forward as you step back right? I got news for you buddy, this isn’t the kind of thing just a few people can fix. The country actually elected him. We need to build a movement to fight this, to prevent the country from just electing the next one.

I thought maybe there was someone else on the other side with him but nope, just him, stumbling towards a fence. That’s not policing that’s a fucking execution.

I didn’t say they did?

Suuure. Temporary. Just like when IT strung that wire across the ceiling…

The US Marshals are actually organized under the DOJ. Meaning they’ll just fire any Marshal that obeys that order.

It’s more like we came out of WW2 up by 10 because the other teams got decimated. As the decades have gone on they’ve rebuilt their teams and scored some goals so while we kept scoring, they were catching up. This is actually the natural process where a rebuilt Europe was expected to eventually equal the US.

But Trump just blew up the scoreboard and now everyone is wondering if we’re even still playing the same game.

Nope, news everywhere has been fucking this headline up. SCOTUS defined the government’s duty as requesting his release politely and allowing him back in if El Salvador does release him. The previous ruling would have forced the state department to tell El Salvador they must do it, or else. This is a far lower standard and will not be enough to get him released because the leadership in El Salvador knows Trump doesn’t want the guy to come back.

They put a lot of people in the cells, not just 2 or 3. So they are quite large and still quite crowded.

Oh no you’re reading this wrong. SCOTUS just gave them permission. They said they must “facilitate” and that the lower courts order to “effectuate” was likely an over step.

The payload here is that facilitating means they’ll send an official request that El Salvador will officially deny and then tell everyone they did everything they were ordered to do.

Oh they’re clearly moving to make that outdated. They want to turn any protestor into a terrorist.

The sheer amount of money being removed by the 1 percent is regoddamndiculous. It’s something like 45 trillion dollars since wages diverged from productivity in 1975.

It would require Apple to accept a dollar less in profit.

That’s a useless show of disrespect. People we need in place would be fired for taking over one news cycle. Worse it could kick a purge of officers into high gear by giving ammunition to conservatives that the military has “gone rogue”.

Greenland is hard. They’d likely do it. It’s a legal order under the War Powers Act. They would probably do it in a completely different way than going full explodey like they did with Iraq, but it would happen.

Now they could drag their feet, super telegraphing their moves, effectively giving Congress time to use the WPA to shut it down. But it’s not guaranteed by any means.

Canada would see mass desertions though. And Mexico or Panama are actually the most likely targets. The military would invade those places without a second thought.

Because they aren’t robots.

In this case there was no real issue. He was trying to get free advertising out of the court. But also, we’ve had animated avatars and text to voice for over a decade now. This isn’t an AI use case.
