Ok yes. ICE is sending some innocent people to forever prison in El Salvador. But you can’t throw out the bathwater without throwing out a few babies. Wingnuts don’t actually care about babies either, they just want to appear to care about all the babies. Plus, slutty sex-loving ladies will think twice about having sex for pleasure like a common harlot, instead of for procreation with creepy conservative dudes as god intended.

And you're gonna say "Tito Puente, why I've been listening to him for years"

"I don't know what the law says on that, but I can't imagine the law would say anything different..."

There are not enough libraries to hold all the books that could be filled with the things you "can't imagine."

Speaking of Cuba and of that song; if you can find it, I totally recommend the film Guantanamera

So Juan McCain got to be a birthright citizen because he was born on a USAmerican military installation, which is considered to be our sovereign soil, and I'm just fine with that, but the military installation at Guantanamo isn't considered USAmerican soil.

Got it.

Fuck Yoo.

Trump is using Louisiana as Guantanamo North; a Cajun Waystation on the fascism railroad.

Obama campaigned on closing it. I will not forgive him for failing to do so.

PuertoRicanMut's avatar

As I recall the retugs in congress passed a law prohibiting it's closure.

That's the way I remember it.

" ... but I'd only do it according to the law ... "

What a complete crock of shit. The only interest that man has ever had in the law has been in having his shysters find ways to circumvent it for him. Now that he's president - again - he's once more taking the carefree attitude that legal is whatever he says it is.

It's only a little jump to summary execution via death squads (maybe recruited from MAGA cultists with large unsecured weapons caches).

Good way to get around habeas corpus too, by just disappearing people to have them renditioned and killed. Then you can say "Not my fault."

This was warned about, but of course people prioritized prejudice, privilege and clout in voting (or non-voting) for President Klan Robe. They did think it was no big that President Klan Robe was openly desiring ethnic cleansing.

It's incumbent that as many of us as possible try to survive.

Linda Abbott's avatar

Of course he wants ethnic cleansing. He's totally in favor of his buddy's genocide in Gaza. And he's taking notes, I'm sure.

Wait. So his excuse for using El Salvador is that "they can do it cheaper than us"?

So, good when it's illegally housing forced renditions of its own citizens, but bad when it's manufacture literally anything? So. Much. Stupid.

Yeah, why is Trump exporting American prison jobs?

House0fTheBlueLights's avatar

Imagine the Middle Passage, but with AI and shipping bots.

Wait, what? "BORDER SECURITY EXPO"?

With registration booths and lanyards and ID badges and swag bags and execrable lunches and milling about in the lobby during breaks?

Excellent. Just excellent.

For all of us who had "the whole deportation thing is an excuse to build for-profit concentration camps and use the detainees as slave labor" on our bingo card, DRINK!

I was just telling my cousin that as he was screaming about Trump. I spent many hours giving him facts against his Faux "news" info. Finally, he has come to understand what is going on but he still refers to Leftist Judges. I tried to tell him that with the way he's talking about Trump, he would be considered "Left" but I don't think it sunk in.....it's coming, but it hasn't sunk in yet.

Yeah, nothing to celebrate about this cruel horror show.

Is this what John Roberts means by "calling balls and strikes"? As far as respecting precedent, SCOTUS struck down Lincoln's suspension of Habeas Corpus during an actual war, The Civil War.

His strike zone is as wide as the Gulf of America

Mavenmaven's avatar

He was ready to have the innocent kids from Central Park executed, and nothing suggests he's become more sensitive to the idea of "law" or "humanity".

SethTriggs's avatar

Probably will even try to actually GET them executed now.
