As much as we want Kilmar Abrego Garcia freed, don't forget there are 260+ others jailed in El Salvador without due process. The abduction of people kidnapped off the street and imprisoned in a foreign land means the end of rights guaranteed since 1215 (i.e., the Magna Carta) and the 4th, 8th and 14th Amendments in our Constitution. The writ of habeas corpus, which allows individuals to challenge the legality of their detention, has a long history tied to the Magna Carta.
The 4th Amendment protects against unreasonable searches and seizures, while the 14th Due Process Clause ensures a person of life, liberty, or property without due process of law.
As if those violations of the Constitution were not enough, the cruel and unusual punishment clause of the 8th Amendment prohibits such action inflicted by the government This amendment aims to protect individuals like Kilmar Garcia--and all other residents of the US, to be protected by the Constitution, from punishment that is excessively harsh or inhumane.
Trump has destroyed the Constitution and the Magna Carta in 84 days, with the help of cowed, cowardlyRepublicans in Congress and the SCOTUS. Shades of Nazi Germany 1930s!
That is true, but it's also true that the public needs a face and a story to follow in order to exert pressure. Garcia now. Others, we hope, to follow. And the whole rotten scheme shut down in disgrace.
Frightening times indeed so let's keep doing the work.
Please write to the Supreme Court to advice them to enact their power to enforce all of the decisions they have made to bring back ICE’d detainees. There is an option to email the contact for the Court. And yes we are seeing the heinous rebirth of Nazi Germany.
I propose a straight prisoner swap with El Salvador - the WHOLE of Trump's 'Administration', ALL MAGA GOP in Congress AND Elon Musk, for the 260 prisoners deported to Cecot in El Salvador! (and send THEM without due process also... just a straight swap!) That would do very nicely, I think... then you can all get on with the job of starting to repair the damage these A$$holes have done so far!
yes it all starts with one, you find a way to get one back and suddenly it becomes possible to follow a blue print. try not to forget that stomping out every voice just to prove that the din is loud only makes it seem like just because you can't handle a truth that no one can; But there are many that can walk a straight line and chew gum at once. So Yes yes so many others and how do you propose to help them. Yes yes cowardly and have you contracted your representatives? The you quote the constitution as if it was constitutionally correct to send him to a foreign goulash and you think arguing that but the constitution says stops a demon like Criminal In Chief Donald Trump or his lackies? I didn't think so: there is an award for people like you it is the a beautiful golden four legged chair called, "Sit The Fuck Down Award."
While I'm sure he wants to be back here with his family, and I certainly want that to happen sooner rather than later, I can't imagine he'd want to stay here once he's back. Do you think he'd have any trust left for this administration that sold him out?
He is a representation of all that you write here. Just George Floyd represented all who were permanently maimed or killed by police, scared to do their job justly and protect us without malice or favor.
Garcia is a gang-banging wife-beating MS 13 rouge illegal alien and all of his kind in America must be deported and shame on the senators who are working to bring him back.
And you know all that for certain, how??? It sounds like Republican-generated designer narrative. Even if the man were tried and convicted honestly, he should remain under OUR roof, not fobbed off to some foreign, grifting, unaccountable contractor in a 3rd world country!
Of course, for the Trump regime of monsters and their supporters, the cruelty is the entire point. They (and Bristow?) get off on that.
Such hatred from an ill informed person. You know nothing about him. That’s why due process is necessary.
How about Voicing about the Trauma of the women who were victimized by that Adjudicated RAPIST, Convicted FELON in the White House? Those ARE FACTS we know of…why don’t you spew your HATRED on him? I guess your just his ECHO CHAMBER for his PROPAGANDA LIES!
I agree. An ill informed man beating his wife in front of his children is the ultimate form of hate. Based on your facts, it sounds like Kilmar and Trump are cut from the same cloth.

Such lovely words. ❤️❤️❤️

Your poems are beautiful!
Thank you for sharing your work!
R o g u e. (Not "rouge", which means "red" in French.)
Example: the entire Trump-following, enabling, grift-promoting, traitorous, bloodsucking, anti-American mob.
Garcia is a gang-banging wife-beating MS 13 rouge illegal alien and all of his kind in America must be deported and shame on the senators who are working to bring him back.
I hope he gets a fair trial so we can know the truth.

It seems the only designer narrative is the gang symbology tattooed on his fingers. Only an in-duh-vidual wouldn’t see that for what it is.
Spousal abuse is traumatic and scars a child for life. Men who beat woman in front of children are anything but caring fathers. It may be that his children are now safe with him out of the house. https://womenshealth.gov/relationships-and-safety/domestic-violence/effects-domestic-violence-children

A fair trial would relieve my concerns.
Well now he's back. And will be tried for human trafficking among other things. And if he makes bail, he can beat his wife again.
