“I could … but we have lawyers who don’t want to do that.”

This means nothing less than the Trump Administration is in open defiance of the Supreme Court of the United States.

CNN's Elie Honig pours cold water on the DHS report citing a 2022 traffic stop to claim Kilmar Abrego Garcia is a human trafficker: "This is not the smoking gun that they‘re trying to sell it as... it is a huge leap to go from the facts we have to this man is a human trafficker."

Supreme Court orders Trump administration not to deport Venezuelans for now The justices said no action should be taken to pursue the deportations of any alleged Venezuelan gang members in Texas under the Alien Enemies Act.

BREAKING: U.S. Supreme Court tells the Trump administration not to take any action to deport alleged Venezuelan gang members currently based in Texas while litigation continues and "until further order of this court."

This is an obvious point, but cannot overstated. There is an enormous difference between deporting someone - where they get off a plane as a free citizen in their home country AND FUNNELING THEM INTO A BRUTAL PRISON FROM WHICH THEY HAVE NO CHANCE OF EVER EMERGING!!!

He also was not permitted to speak with Abrego Garcia by phone

Judge Boasberg finds there is probable cause to pursue criminal contempt charges against the Trump administration officials who disobeyed his order to stop the deportation of immigrants to El Salvador

If the Supreme Court covers for them now, it will be a severe blow to democracy for years to come

Speaking now from El Salvador, Sen. Chris Van Hollen (D-MD) says he was denied access to Kilmar Abrego Garcia by El Salvador leaders. And was denied a phone call to him

Van Hollen: "The Trump Administration is lying about Abrego Garcia"

State Terror A brief guide for Americans

"the president defied a Supreme Court ruling to return a man mistakenly sent to a gulag... and spoke of sending Americans to foreign concentration camps.
This is the beginning of an American policy of state terror, and it has to be identified as such to be stopped"

Tomorrow’s going to be a good stress test of the press. El Salvadoran President Bukele will visit the White House. At the press availability, every Q ought to be about Abrego Garcia: where is he now? Did US ask you to return him? etc. WH will hate, maybe try to prevent, so all should band together.

There is a severe problem happening in the bee world:

Bees are dying & this year 2025 80% of the Bee population has died.

This is catastrophic for the planet.

So I am asking my sweetest friends with money & pull: lets get Honey Tree Healing Farm going to repopulate bees, trees & feed the world.

If Kristi Noem can go down to El Salvador and take concentration camp selfies, then DOJ can figure out where Abrego Garcia is.

Just start jailing people for contempt of court until they find out.
