As discussed in the video, here's the passage in DOJ's criminal complaint where the case falls apart.

As I discussed on CNN, it points to a criminal complaint that's not designed to have the charges stick.

Instead, DOJ's actions look designed to create a (false) public narrative about judges.

Yes, I messed this part up; he was arrested in front of his son but not at home.

This was great. Ava Benach and others confirmed he was arrested while in the car with his disabled son— not at home— and had to call his wife to come get him in 10 minutes under a threat to call protective services.

Since the Trump admin continues to claim Mr. Abrego Garcia is a gang member, I thought I'd take the time to put together a timeline, based on all the documents filed in court, which lays out all the "evidence" the government has ever offered.

As you'll find out, there's very little "there" there!

The Trump administration said Tuesday that it would no longer reserve a regular slot in the presidential press pool for three independent newswires that have participated for decades, including The Associated Press.
White House Ends a Regular Reporting Slot for Independent Newswires
The move, which affects The Associated Press, Bloomberg News and Reuters, is another effort by the Trump administration to exert more control over the press corps that covers it.

Please make this stop

Headlines getting it wrong:

Supreme Court ruled Trump administration must facilitate Maryland man's return

Actual SCOTUS (much stronger) ruling:

Trump administration must "facilitate Abrego Garcia's release from custody in El Salvador"

Mistake persists in reporting today.

Pete Hegseth, three days ago:

"Under the previous administration we looked like fools. Not anymore.”

Carve it into his career headstone.

That nice old guy Lloyd Austin never sent war plans over Signal.

And Kamala Harris was never caught smack talking Biden in a group chat either.

Just sayin’.

I mean very obviously Hegseth should resign, and if it were a Democratic administration this would be quickly be a consensus position.

MAGA is big mad that Rep. DeLauro said we need "to fund the use of female crash test dummies for road equity.”

Women are more likely to be injured or killed in car crashes than men, and the current crash test dummies are not designed to represent the female body.

MAGA brain rot is strong. 🤦‍♀️
