Talk about cutting waste and fraud when they are literally paying another country to take anyone they deem a criminal, regardless of the fact they were never allowed to defend themselves in court. And what about all the money they spent to use gitmo to house them, then doing a complete about face when they reallized it wasn’t feasible. When they say measure twice and cut once is about as true as a talking horse. Obviously they aren’t measuring at all.

Well, seems the PG County cops haven't changed much since 1970, when they would follow my black friend when he drove his gf's '69 Super Sport around town. Jesus wept.

Prove you're not a gang member. Do it from El Salvador. Do it from jail.

Oops! It doesn't count. We gave you to Bukele--possibly because you know a thing or two about how Bukele works WITH GANGS to maintain power. We can't get you back. Too bad for you...guess you shouldn't have been born. Not in Salvador, anyway.

I wonder if Abrego Garcia is alive after going to CECOT. When the US federal government under Trump says they can't bring him back home to the USA this is admitting to powerlessness, which as we know Trump would never admit. Alternatively Trump is admitting that it's because you aren't white and we thus treat you as garbage to discard of.

Interesting piece from the Guardian- There Is No Such Thing as Illegal Immigration" which would make all actions to incarcerate

so called "illegal immigrants" illegal. https://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2025/apr/02/undocumented-people-no-such-thing-as-illegal-immigrant

I wonder if the guy is dead or dying, or he has been tortured in a way that could result in photos embarrassing to the administration.

The administration has Tyrannosaurus Rex arms -- can't possibly reach.

Information did say to send Garcia back he likely suffer torture or death so yes that is a horrifying possible outcome of this.

Having tired of the whole "innocent until proven guilty" inconvenience, they've decided to go with the Monopoly card "Go To Jail" approach. But there's no get out of jail card and you don't get to throw the dice for a double. Just one more reason why any sane person, (including myself), would not even contemplate visiting the States, any time soon.

And... how long before self-appointed "witch-finders" are back? If they float, they're a witch - burn them. If they sink, (and drown), they're innocent - but oops... dead. That's going to save on flying them down to El Salvador and funding concentration camps. Surely Elon will be Sieg Heiling all over that. It's way more "efficient".

" which is absolutely notorious for being one of the most dangerous prisons in the world". I believe there's a "Truth" from the fucking PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES pretty much giggling at all the terrible people who will be put in this terrible place. The GOVERNMENT is the one estopped from claiming otherwise.

Stephen Miller needs to be stopped, I don't care how.

Oh, and by the way? As you point out, it is JUST as appalling and unjustifiable that they're deporting ANY of those people to the torture-prison. It's all Auschwitz. It's not just shameful, it's a crime against humanity, and I want Miller, Trump, Vance, and Honan dragged up in front of an International Court at The Hague. They are MONSTROUS.

Start locking up some of Krasnov’s attorneys for contempt and maybe they’ll change their minds.

How about locking up Krasnov HIMSELF for contempt?

So, this sounds as if he's been sold to El Salvador and not longer belongs to the USA.

Yes, he's been sold into slavery in 2025.

Not to be macabre, but if this guy dies in El Salvador’s Midnight Express Inn, his family will be on absolutely solid ground to sue the holy bejesus out of the government, especially if they work with other families whose relatives have died or disappeared. And, particularly if they win, that would be one mondo grosso news story.

It’s a grim way to get the public to go, “They did WHAT?” Here’s hoping they pull it off without anyone losing their life. The Administration is endangering innocent people, and Trump sure as hell doesn’t want them coming back and telling their stories. It’s the same reason you don’t leave witnesses when you work for the mafia. It’s just business.

I saw a story last night about ICE arresting an American citizen in Virginia who had the temerity to walk and/or drive while being actively brown. Does anyone know if the story’s legit, and, if so, how it played out?

Maybe Trump wants to do another reality show called “The Renditioned.” Who knows?

EVery day more innocent people who were sent to CETCO will surface. Probably even some natural born citizens

Ultimately, they're actually all innocent. NONE of them should be "deported to a torture prison" at all.
