This is so jarringly unAmerican that I sort of hope it wakes some normies up. It is occurring in a context where military-style equipment is being used to enforce immigration roundups and conveys the notion that we are increasingly living in a police state.
In preparation for next week’s parade/demonstration, tanks are being moved into Washington, DC today. Unprecedented.

Donald Trump is not just hungry to kidnap migrants without due process. He said out loud today he's ready to deport American citizens. We've been warned.

Who in the administration knew about Trump's latest tariff flip flop ahead of time? Did anyone buy or sell stocks, and profit at the public’s expense?

This fencing event was the cherry blossom open that takes place every year in Maryland. It’s an OPEN, meaning folks fence off against everyone of all ages and it’s not divided by gender. My brother made a grown woman cry at this event one year when he fenced her.

These stories are going to keep trickling out as more details of the rushed deportations emerge.
A note on JD Vance's repulsive response to the deportation of a Salvadoran in "error": The whole point of his stunt is to show that Trump feels free to remove people even when the law *doesn't* justify it.
I spoke to the man's lawyer. Absolutely hair raising stuff:

The Lawlessness Is the Point
The Trump administration just admitted that a Salvadoran man was deported in error. Shockingly, Trump and JD Vance don't seem to want to fix their mistake—and the implications of that are dark.
