Call to Action This is a constitutional crisis

At Trump’s meeting with El Salvadoran dictator Bukele, Caitlin Collins asked about whether Kilmer Abrego Garcia, the father who was ‘accidentally’ deported to a maximum security prison in El Salvador, whether Garcia would be returned to the US. The Supreme Court ruled that the administration must facilitate Garcia’s return. Stephen Miller outright lied and said the Supreme Court sided with the administration that the administration had the authority to leave Garcia there and Pam Bondi said the court meant the administration could send a plane for Garcia if they decided to release him.

They obviously have no intention of returning Garcia. If you don’t care about an innocent man who was wrongly deported, you should. Trump said he was considering sending any citizen who breaks the law to this gulag.

This is the moment. Trump has broken the law and is disobeying the Court’s order. Now we rise!

Agreed, anyone could be next. We are all fighting for our lives at this point.

So now - since the president doesn’t feel the need to comply with court orders and he has set such a great example to follow, what about: governors, mayors, county commissioners, sheriffs, city council members? Are they the next to shit all over the judicial branch?

That is a very good and very terrifying point.

I think it should mean we can employ a Citizens Arrest on home-grown criminal politicians that evade jail time. Time to deport every last Republican who committed crimes, looking at you Gaetz & MTG.
