This is happening again and again: judges rule that deportations are illegal, then Trump's people just kidnap the victim and deport them anyway. A whole lot of people were just deported to a prison in a foreign country whose government has said they will never be released. They will be slave labor for a foreign country until they die, and there was no trial, no due process, no evidence presented for their being guilty of any crime. It's just the US government kidnapping people and trafficking them into slavery abroad, completely ignoring its own judicial system. The USA is already a dictatorship, and it only took a few weeks.

It’s time for armed resistance
If these unjust and illegal actions can't be stopped through elections, politicians or courts, it does seem the only ways to stop them would involve physically obstructing them.
Anyone have a good source on the illegal kidnappings and the prison that won’t release people? I’ve been trying not to follow US politics but goddamn clearly I need to when they’re up to this shit already
NPR, the source that floofloof linked above, is a pretty solid news source. The article linked discusses the mega-prison in El Salvador.

Hey where was the motherfucker arguing they wouldnt deport legal people with me here? Huh? Where ya at?
They literally don't care. All they want is to win an argument against leftists in the moment; they actually see it as a weakness to be beholden to facts.
They're playing a different "game" entirely, one where rhetoric is more important than reality.
This point should be understood by all - they're programmed to get a dopamine hit in the moment by pissing you off.
They're not arguing in good faith and all the time you spend making rational statements is a waste. Nobody is keeping a scorecard that punishes them for losing an intellectual discussion.
The opposition to MAGA has to find a new path, because applying rational arguments in discussions ain't going to work.
This is why calling them weird was sort of effective. It's not a fact, it's an opinion. Now, I think it's a widely held opinion, but the point is it wasn't something they could argue with. It was sort of playing the game they've been playing.

They're at the other goalpost, we just don't know where it's been moved right now
I hope Trump's Supreme Court are happy residing over a branch of government that no longer matters.
As long as the vacations and RVs keep coming, you bet they are.
They made it so, why wouldn’t they be happy?
They'll do just fine as long as they deliver him what he wants.

Constitutional crisis time! Who's ready to defend their rights and fight for democracy!
"I'll stand peacefully on a sidewalk holding up a sign to defend democracy, so long as no harm comes to me." - Americans
As an anti gun person my whole life, I am considering buying a gun to defend my rights as our 2nd amendment was designed to protect.
I think Democrats need to start forming or partnering with like like minded, armed groups, to help reinforce the importance and need for action. Then we have our support shown how we will defend our rights if actions are not taken.
I am not advocating for violence, but we cannot show up to a gun right with cardboard signs.

Though the Trump administration did not initially detail their rationale for detaining Alawieh, Hilton Beckham, the assistant commissioner of public affairs for Customs and Border Protection, told HuffPost that "arriving aliens bear the burden of establishing admissibility to the United States.”
Which a valid visa is literally proof of, you ridiculously named fascist henchcritter! 🤦🤬

Deporting doctors, unbelievable.
Everything they do suggests the goal is just to ruin the USA and its (former) allies.
So what are we gonna do about it?
Watch in horror

Whoever ignored that order should be held in contempt. You don't just "whoopsie" a judge's order.

Well obviously it's because they were Brown
Court decisions are just optional now. Who needs a court when you are judge and jury?
