I wish it were still that simple.
Meanwhile @ #SCOTUS and in the #WhiteHouse:
Must listen-to for any #USresident and anyone interested in #GeoPol!
"The #US is now a lawless...dictatorship...without the rule of law...#Congress must impeach the #Trump...#Administration!"

I am not an American, but how much of a crime is if to fake evidence like holding up Photoshopped knuckles of #Garcia?
Isn't that illegal?
I understand 4 Dem senators are going to Ek Salvador
All they have to do is photo the man's fist ....

"Vasquez Sura’s relief here, delivered in a single photo, is palpable. It is at once simple and tremendous: an anguished family, after weeks of cruelty imposed by the US government, now knows that their fight for #AbregoGarcia’s release had not been in vain. In fact, it will continue."
‘This Should Be Shocking’: Conservative Judge Blasts White House As Senator Finally Accesses Abrego #Garcia - https://www.techdirt.com/2025/04/18/this-should-be-shocking-conservative-judge-blasts-white-house-as-senator-finally-accesses-abrego-garcia/ " In a blistering opinion released yesterday, Wilkinson laid bare what’s at stake in the Abrego Garcia case: nothing less than the rule of law itself."
In a blistering ruling on Thursday, a three-judge panel unanimously agreed that a group of Donald Trump’s top officials
—including Homeland Security Secretary Kristi #Noem and Attorney General Pam #Bondi
—must fulfill a judge’s request for sworn testimony about their failure to heed her order demanding #Abrego #Garcia’s return.
“It is difficult in some cases to get to the very heart of the matter,” the Fourth Circuit ruling said.
“But in this case, it is not hard at all.”
The opinion—written by Judge J. Harvie Wilkinson III, a Ronald Reagan appointee—said that
Trump “is asserting a right to stash away residents of this country in foreign prisons without the semblance of due process that is the foundation of our constitutional order.”
“Further, it claims in essence that because it has rid itself of custody that there is nothing that can be done,” it said.
“This should be shocking not only to judges, but to the intuitive sense of liberty that Americans far removed from courthouses still hold dear.”

"Lawrence: Sen. Van Hollen outsmarted Trump today helping Abrego Garcia get a step closer to justice"

We now know Abrego #Garcia is alive! https://www.reuters.com/world/americas/us-senator-van-hollen-says-he-met-wrongly-deported-man-el-salvador-2025-04-18/
I'm not sure what it means that El Salvador reversed course and allowed Sen. Van Hollen to meet him after previously denying it. But there's more hope today than there was yesterday!
The US Department of #HomelandSecurity is violating #Musk’s doxxing rules on X by posting Abrego Garcia's home address, date of birth, and other personal information.
This breaches the platform's Terms of Service and should result in a suspension.
Today was a very good news day. Two federal judges moving towards holding administration people in contempt. A senator goes to #ElSalvador and learns information helpful to the #Garcia case.
And a friend of mine reports that #doomerism is all over Facebook. People saying it's all hopeless, none of this matters.
And one of my heroes here in the Fediverse, @GottaLaff , has been getting the same.
This is like snatching defeat from the jaws of victory. 1/

- #Democrats Rep. announce trip to #ElSalvador to retrieve #Garcia -
THAT's > stupid at the suicidal level
#Americans have not yet understood they do NOT live in a #Constitutional #Democracy anymore
#TRUMP will probably call the president of #ElSalvador asking him to make them 'disappear' with Garcia.
And nobody in the US will be able to find them.
If the Parliamentary Representatives believe they are 'protected' by their #Institutional position or the 'mighty' #US ... they are crazy
"The leader principle, or in German Führerprinzip, is the idea that a single individual directly represents the people, and that therefore all of his actions are by definition legal and proper. In discussions in the #White /House and thereafter, we see this notion being advanced.
[...]
To a very sad degree, Supreme Court justices and members of Congress are already complicit in this experiment in #StateTerror."
#Trump is an outlaw.
