In the wake of Charlie Kirk's death, a TN sheriff had a 61-yr-old man arrested for posting a meme on Facebook, which the sheriff absurdly construed as a threat. It was pretty clearly bullshit but I dug into the case using FB & public records and now it looks even worse. My latest @theintercept.com:

Larry Bushart Jr. posted trolling memes on a Facebook thread about a vigil for Kirk. He’s been in a Tennessee jail ever since.

If there’s one position on asylum that I would consider “unreasonable,” it’s the one the White House has adopted: namely, that any person, no matter what danger they have fled, can be summarily returned to the hands of their persecutors propensity4selfsubversion.substack.com/p/most-reaso...

The return of Abrego Garcia also of course bears on the ability of the U.S. government to return the hundreds of other men renditioned to El Salvador and who remain arbitrarily detained in CECOT.

If the federal government had the goods on Kilmar Abrego Garcia, they should have prosecuted him consistent with the due process of law and not railroaded him into a dangerous prison despite his protected status. This is a vindictive abuse of the system. Pure and simple.
