Gotta admit, I expected this admin to speedrun fascism, but I'd be lying if I said I was expecting it as soon as April (lemmy.world)

~~Please be accurate when you criticize the administration. No US citizen has been sent to El Salvador.~~

~~The guy the SC told Trump to get back was a legal immigrant, and a citizen of El Salvador.~~

Edit: Well. I'm embarrassed. I misread the meme and my brain skipped the "married to a" part.

Hey entwine, just an FYI -- Kilmar Ábrego García was not a legal immigrant. He was an illegal immigrant (of course, this doesn't mean he was charged with a crime) who was granted a protection from deportation to El Salvador by a US judge on the grounds that he would be in danger from El Salvadorean gangs. He has had a work permit since 2019.

Nevertheless, he was not granted due process and this administration is violating court orders.

This, I don't care if he's a shit bag. I know a lot of shit bags are in our country right now, some high up in government who admitted to being here illegally, does that mean we just send them to El Salvador?

How can you both not be a legal immigrant and also have a work permit?

Political dissidents , if they are using commerical planes, why not cause a scene and deplane everyone?

They only care about the second amendment…and then the first amendment when they show that they’re an asshole on social media and get called out for it. I don’t think they learned the others that trump is currently wiping his ass with.

I wasn’t surprised since as soon as he won he was doing a lot of things. He wasn’t even president then.

I didn't expect Trump to attack the military.

If he wants troops in the streets he has to follow the chain of command; if the top brass decide it's an illegal order they won't do anything.

What will it take for these poor saps to wake up.

They've downed half a bottle of whiskey to avoid being 'woke'.
