SCOTUS effectively OK’ed third-country removals as the Trump admin is using them on the shadow docket, staying lower court orders reining them in. Further, the specific questions raised here — about refoulement — have come up before, like in this case: www.lawdork.com/p/ghana-refo...

Going through the comments and quotes on this and it seems that the Reddit post is ai (jokes on us!).

However, many comments and quotes are detailing that variations of this scenario are plausible and actually happening as well as explaining why ai comes up short.

Fun times!

When these C series bills dropped I couldn’t believe it and now while we watch them work their way through Parliament I am still in a state of shock. His entire legislative agenda is terrifying.

Well, this headline and framing rather buries the lede. It's not that two Latvians in the stands held up the flag of Greenland at a US vs Denmark match, in an arena full of US flags. It's that security told them to quit it for "safety reasons, because there could be American aggressive people."
Fans who raised Greenland's flag at US-Denmark Olympic hockey game say it was a pro-European gesture
Two fans who raised a flag of Greenland as the United States played Denmark in men’s hockey at the Winter Olympics say they did so as a gesture of European support for the island and for Denmark.

Scoop: The NIH infectious-diseases institute (NIAID) will soon scrub “pandemic preparedness” and “biodefense” from its web pages, according to e-mails I obtained.

The directive is the start of a broader shake-up at NIAID, which has long been attacked by Republicans.

The polling numbers are in:
71% of Albertawomen will vote no if there is an Alberta referendum.
81% of them said they would move away from Alberta.
That will leave Donbas Danielle and her petrostate frathouse of keyboard rage warriors.

Or use the threat of tariffs, annexation & invasion to remove rights & protections, as done by the Liberal Government of #Canada.

Absolutely we should fear terrorism and seek to prevent it.
But we should also fear those who use either real terrorism or bogus claims about terrorism to boost their own powers, restrict our freedoms and corrode our democracy.
Both present major threats to public life.

"They boast about being able to identify not just that someone is likely to vote & who they’ll probably vote for, but to determine whether that person went to a polling booth on election day and voted -- & that’s just the start.”

Lol he is a poser

He has always worked against the interests of ordinary Canadians

He has no accomplishments that improved Canada for the better

He is close to far-right extremists figures and uses the trumpist rhetoric

He doesn’t have his f security clearance

He is more unpopular than an STI

Former Prime Minister Stephen Harper is in the Epstein files and it is incumbent on Canadians to demand an investigation into Canadians that did ‘business’ with Epstein. It is awful, it is uncomfortable, and it requires our courage to root out corruption.
