The Supreme Court Knows Trump Isn’t Listening Anymore: If the justices wanted the president to bring back Kilmar Abrego Garcia, they know what words to use. They didn’t use them. (ballsandstrikes.org)

Last week, the Supreme Court issued an unsigned opinion requiring the Trump administration to “facilitate” the return of Kilmar Armando Abrego Garcia, a 29-year-old Maryland man whom immigration officials deported to a Salvadoran megaprison 32 days ago. But the justices pointedly stopped short of requiring the administration to “effectuate” Abrego Garcia’s return, in light of the “deference owed to the Executive Branch in the conduct of foreign affairs.” They did so despite the fact that lawyers for the government have conceded that it had no legal basis to deport Abrego Garcia; in court, they have characterized his disappearance as an “administrative error,” as if shipping a man who has not been accused of a crime to an overseas gulag is the equivalent of neglecting to attach an itemized receipt to an expense report.

Your highest courts have been stacked in favor of your dictator for some time. Revolt. Loudly and aggressively.

I'm beginning to hate the guillotine references while watching little actually get done. Y'all got a long way to go to get to your guillotine moment.

They learned. They put their Bastille in another country.

What was it you said you'd accomplished in your lifetime? Oh right, you vote while your government fucks over the First Nations. What heroism.

Yea you know me now and what I do cause you creeped some comments on an alt account that you didn't even care to read because it's not in line with your fucked up narrative. Fuck off. Just another cultist of a different variety and part of the reason you find yourself ruled by a dictator.
