Remember, this began with a mistake on their part that they admitted.
Q: Does the White House have a response to a judge ordering the immediate release of Kilmar Ábrego García from ICE detention? Will you appeal?

LEAVITT: Absolutely. The White House opposes this activism from a judge. He is a proven human trafficker

Veteran detained by ICE: I identified myself as a US citizen and a veteran, but that didn't matter. Agents smashed my window, sprayed tear gas into my car, dragged me out. Even after I complied, I was held for 3 days without charges. No phone call, no lawyer, no medical care

As if Poland doesn’t know its own late 20th century history enough to know it has to look to its western border for security.
“A longer, unpublished version of the Trump administration’s National Security Strategy identifies Poland as one of four countries the US should try to “pull away” from the European Union, according to leaked excerpts reported by the Defense One news website.”

Remember when the standard for judges (and others) was to avoid “even the appearance of impartiality”?

That seems like a really long time ago.

This is way beyond a travesty.
It gets worse. Trump also says straight out that an invasion of Venezuela "on land" is coming and says he'd expand all this to Mexico and Colombia. Incredibly, no one even bothers pointing out anymore that he is claiming authority to do all of this without Congress:

Okay, if we’re doing this by pers experience (NOT the way to decide vax policy by the way), I’ll throw in mine: got both shingles vaccines, was completely fine. Now protected against shingles.

Unvaxed ppl I know who’ve had the disease were in MAJOR PAIN. 1 vaxed person who got it barely noticed.
All over my FB people talking about their bad experiences with shingles vax and dissuading each other from getting it! We need to give people real info on how to mitigate the symtoms caused by vaccines because vaccines are always better than meeting a virus unprepared. Yet drs aren't coaching ppl

Do ppl know they can get shingles in their eye that can blind them? In their mouth or throat so they can’t eat? On and in their genitals or rectum? Do you want horrific pain for a couple weeks paired with possible permanent complications?

No?

Get the fucking vax
