brazenly
Why is the press continuously using wording that makes this pig sound like an anti hero of some sorts?
Call him for what he is now, a dictator

If you see ICE doing a kidnapping you can legally hit them with your car.
I feel like people who are targeted by the ice gestapo and bystanders need to understand that this the kidnapping is likely a death sentence and respond accordingly.
If you’re about to be kidnapped and sent to your death, might as well attack your abductors.
You’re gonna die either way.
A democracy officially becomes a dictatorship when the executive starts disobeying the legislative branch.
The US is on the knife's edge, and starting to fall on the wrong side of history.
And the price of eggs still hasn't come down...
But wait, rednecks can beat brown people without repercussions right?
Becauae honestly, that's all that matters in the end.
I didn't say America was a real democracy. Everybody knows it's a plutocratic, gerontocratic, racist former slavers' republic that pretends to be a democracy - and everybody else around the world has been following suit for decades out of convenience.
What I said was that it will officially cease to be a democracy the minute Cheeto and his henchmen flat out refuse to obey the judges. Because lawlessness is the most basic, most easily recognizable, and most consensually recognized sign of a dictatorship.
If they don't have to follow the law, then neither does the best armed population in the history of mankind. Stay strapped and kill any fascists that come for you
But hey the Gulf of Mexico is now American.
Visited the gulf earlier this year, literally reeks of death- has never recovered from BP's monumental 'oopsie' deepwater horizon in 2010. For this reason alone, I think the rebrand kinda fits.
Then it should have been renamed "Gulf of British Petroleum."
Gulf of Pemex

Eggs.
Eggs.
Eggs.
Honestly I welcome the extermination. It might be better this way.
aaaahhhhh man
Send the Marshalls to arrest trump. Or lose all your beloved power, SJC.
Haven't you heard? Presidents are immune to the law. The Supreme Court said so. And since the DOJ is run by Trump sycophants any arrest order for someone in the administration will be ignored. Just like getting this guy from El Salvador will be.
The Supreme Court had a chance to rein in a possible second Trump term when they took the presidential immunity case and they fucked themselves for a couple dollars instead. Now we all reap the horrors they have sowed.
It’s not guaranteed. The Marshalls ARE the enforcement mechanism for the courts. So the court needs to issue the order, and then the Marshalls have a decision to make.
If the court deputizes someone since a DOJ Marshall won't follow orders, is that new deputy under the DOJ or under the court?
Court they'd only deputize someone they trusted anyway
You do not understand the GOP base (ie southerners).
It doesn't matter if their family is taken, tortured and killed.
The only thing that matters is that brown people know, beyond any doubt, that they are beneath the lowest inbred redneck.
Trump's base is not "southerners." Trump won a whole bunch of midwestern and mountain states too, and even in the south Harris only lost by single-digit percentages.
Trying to scapegoat the south while ignoring the fascists in your own state is both bigoted and unhelpful. Do better.
He won them.
He didn't get a ludicrous landslide of violent ... who only voted for him out of the desperate hope of getting their Jim crow back, like they've been begging for for decades and actually switched parties for the only time since the founding for.
I know my states, I'm not white and lived in the Midwest, the south, and other places.
They are not the same, they fought a war for slavery and never forgot it for 1 second.
The tragedy is their filth is spreading.
I lived in beautiful Midwestern town. Then nafta came, all the southerners who lost their textile jobs swarmed north, bringing their crime and their drugs. My town was utterly destroyed by them.
But please, go tell jews 'hey, you shouldn't be so hard on literal nazis, be better!'
And before you say another word, Hitler literally wrote in mein kampf how the south was the model Germany needed to follow, even though at their worst they weren't even close to as evil, while black GIs came home from liberating Europe, to be lynched for being uppity.
Our mistake was not giving every slave holder to their slaves, then walking away. We have been paying for that mistake for 160 years. We need a new and brutal reconstruction to finish the job.
this shit sounds fake, your whole southern and midwestern narrative. i'm not even convinced you lived here, and i am sorry to run across you again.
You sound like a shitty southern apologist, your next line is 'oh well the north is just as racist as the south!!!?'
The south are evil, literally more evil than the nazis, that's a historically documented Fact.
Good luck disproving that.
I lived in Indiana, Wisconsin (both great people) and Tennessee.
The south needs to suffer for the Union to be redeemed, good luck denying your region's fundamental evil.
Edit: read about the foundations of the SBC, and the curse of Ham and enjoy understanding how everything you ever believed was a lie 😂
Is it time to resist yet
Let's fucking goooo!!!
You go first, we'll follow your lead.
You're right, it will require somebody with a lot of conviction to take such a drastic, life-altering action. It's much easier to say "just do it" than it is to say, "follow me."
The way i’m reading this - Trump is unable to do so because the US is now weak and feeble.
Clinton, Obama, Biden, maintained our geopolitical strength and would have exercised it.
(this ignores the fact that none of the prior presidents were nazis)
Nope, that's the nonsense argument the administration is trying to push in court right now, but they're lying like usual. The US could get this man back from El Salvador with a phone call but they're choosing not to do so, continuing a long tradition of giving nonwhite people crappier legal process and fewer substantive rights that goes back continuously through several presidents. It would be great if the US was weak and feeble and unable to do things like carry out the murder of our own citizens overseas via drone strike like we did in 2011 or provide an endless stream of weapons to Israel to support the genocide they've been carrying out since 2023, but unfortunately America still has one of the most lethal fighting forces in the world.
Lock him up!
I don't understand this at all. This has been days and days and days. Why isn't there a plane in E.S. with people banging on the prison door to get this guy?
Because he is dead. They put him in gen pop 3 weeks ago.
The courts already knew about him and had previously refused to deport him because he was a target for gang violence.
Yeah, we all know he's dead, but where's the push to go there and make them acknowledge it? Half of Congress is ok just pretending that he's ok and waiting for... for what?
This is the real problem. The Democratic party should whole heartedly be calling for his return, but they fucking suck.
Because the people who run those planes don't care what happens to non-white people
Because the entire republican base care very much what happens to non-white people, they need to be taught a lesson to never 'get uppity' in front of their betters again.
Betters in this case being the product of centuries of sibling rape, with a literacy rate on par with pre-school ers.
