One of hundreds of people abducted by ICE and sold to slavery in El Salvador was a 19 year old with no criminal record in the US or Venezuela and no tattoos of any kind.

An ICE kidnapper who grabbed him outside his house said, "He's not the one."

The other said, "Take him anyway."

So they did.

If you abduct someone and send them involuntarily and without recourse to a country where they've never lived to be imprisoned, that isn't deportation, it's human trafficking

Citizens cannot, by legal definition, be "deported." What she's describing is kidnapping and forced imprisonment without cause. She and many, many others in this administration should face prison one day. bsky.app/profile/ones...

Jennifer’s segment was the best and most terrifying take on the administration’s assault on education. PLEASE take 15 minutes to listen to it. Starts at 18:45.

They want far fewer people to go to college.

Especially women. They want us pushing out babies in our late teens and early 20s instead.

The Trump regime is working to deter dissent.

Anyone who goes against Trump could end up on a target list.

This is having a chilling effect on five major pillars of society — universities, science, the media, the law, and the arts.

It's straight out of the fascist playbook.

What we’re seeing now isn’t just a power grab—it’s a regime shift designed to erase dissent, defund care, and consolidate control. Universities, science, law, media, and the arts are under siege because they represent thought—and thought is the enemy of authoritarianism.

This guy is in one of the worst prisons in the world with no way out and may spend the rest of his life there because, it appears, he has an autism awareness tattoo in honor of his little brother.

Fmr National Security Advisor Susan Rice has LAID IT OUT on @msnbc.com. You wanna know exactly what is outrageous about the conduct of these actors in Signal-gate. Get the tape. She’s on to something, among other questions: why was the Acting Chair of the Joint Chiefs left out of this conversation?

NEW: The ACLU has filed a sworn declaration from a Venezuelan woman who ICE sought to turn over to El Salvador under the Alien Enemies Act, who declares that "I heard two US government officials talking and they said 'there is an order saying we can’t take off but we already have.'"

NEW: Another day, another fascist crime.🧵

Jerce Reyes Barrios, a pro soccer player, was tortured by the regime in Venezuela. He sought asylum in the US & was due a final hearing next month.

BUT with no criminal record, nor gang membership, ICE has trafficked him to the hell prison in El Salvador.

If you think he’s gonna stop at immigrants and not move on to deporting citizens, you’re mistaken. They’ve set up a denaturalization task force for christs sake.

I’m sure I’m not the first to point this out but if the president is asserting the right to deport immigrants without due process, that includes the due process of discovering whether they are in fact immigrants, which means he’s asserting the right to deport anyone he wants.

If, as the Trump admin contends, the federal courts lack jurisdiction over a federal government flight over international waters, then there is nothing stopping the Trump admin from deporting American citizens. As soon as they reach international waters it is fait accompli.
"The Trump administration says it ignored a Saturday court order to turn around two planeloads of alleged Venezuelan gang members because the flights were over international waters and therefore the ruling didn't apply."

That legal "theory" won't hold up.

Imagine this: On the evening of March 8, you and your spouse unlock the door to your apartment building. As you step inside, two men—not in uniform—push their way in behind you. They tell you your visa has been revoked and that they are there to deport you.

Like the spoiled children of the rich who squander their unappreciated legacies, a vast swath of Americans are taking for granted the hard-earned freedoms and rule of law that made us a rich and powerful nation. If we are not careful we will lose our inheritance forever.
