Let's be clear.

Kilmar Abrego Garcia is dead. There is no world in which they chance that guy being able to come home and telling his story...the minute it was clear that he was innocent of any reason to be deported, the Trump admin contacted El Salvador's dictator and had him killed inside. I bet this happened days ago.


Trump and Bukele have a deal in place to disappear citizens. That prison is not a prison, it's a death/extermination campo.


American citizens are being sent there without due process. And Miller just got on the news and says any vocal anti-American's will be treated similarly...


Fascism is here for you lot. Like properly here. He IS IGNORING A 9-0 SCOTUS ruling....

Where are all your 2nd Amendment people who don't want the govt to overreach? Like....what...

We’re scared.

100%. I would be as well. Hell, I'm in a different country and I'm scared of what this means for us if we elect the wrong person who might get ideas.

I get the fear, I'm just baffled how fast this all fell apart. Your whole country's supposedly sacrosanct rules, laws, and constitution are just rags now and it's only been like 3 months.

This is 50+ years in the makings. The "deregulation" and Contra stuff Reagan did, the breaking up of worker unions, Newt Gingrich rising to power and trashing legislative norms, Bush v Gore in the Supreme Court, growing judicial unwieldiness despite less people committing crimes, emboldened police, McConnell's run to destroy Democratic political powers, and Trump's first reign plus the shift rightward of all the health and wellness scammers.

And other countries don’t want us. I’m “too old” and “too poor” to qualify. These changes could honestly kill me with my health problems.

It also sounds like about 75% of the 850+ people sent to CECOT are innocent of any illegal activity, and I would expect whatever order Trump and Bukele made to off Garcia, was expanded to all of them. That one guy who is a hairdresser? He's very likely dead as well.


The US is literally outsourcing its final solution and Conservatives are cheering it on...like my gods.

The retributive power to punish is something this crowd is extremely interested in expanding and preserving against any perceived diminishment, even if it's flat out wrong, misused, unconstitutional, and shoddily implemented.

It's very police-centered in a way that is not "to protect and serve". It's also a shakedown tactic.

Now why do you think they are dead? Not that I don’t believe you but I haven’t seen any articles to that regard.
