If South Africa is a sovereign nation, how are we able to send our own planes we paid for to transport white Afrikaners to the U.S., but simultaneously unable to send a plane to return Abrego Garcia et al?

If Trump doesn’t like current law he can change it in Congress as we’ve done for almost 240 years. But that requires a lot of work so he is just inventing new law IN HIS OWN HEAD and ignoring current law, the Congress and the Supreme Court. Insane, Mad King behavior.

Pam Bondi: “This is a criminal judge sitting on a criminal bench. Anyone who is going to let anyone—any criminal defendant—out a back door is absurd.” When Trump was a criminal defendant, judges often allowed him to enter and exit court out a back door.

⚠️ First, Trump targets sites like ActBlue that help fund his opponents. ⚠️ Next, it’ll be the voters themselves. And we better take that seriously.
Headline reads “Trump goes after websites that raise money for his enemies,” with a subheadline about ActBlue raising nearly $400 million since Trump took office.
