The Associated Press reported that government prosecutors told a judge that the U.S. plans to deport Kilmar Abrego Garcia to a country other than El Salvador after he is released from a Tennessee jail.
Abigail Jackson, Deputy Press Secretary at the White House, called the reporting "fake news": Abrego Garcia was returned to the United States to face trial for the egregious charges against him. He will face the full force of the American justice system -- including serving time in American prison for the crimes he's committed.
In court, the exchange went like this:
Judge Xinis: Wanted to get you on line because I have preliminary questions and want to set schedule. It's an unusual order. First question is for DOJ: What's the plan after release order issues for Abrego?
Dept of Justice: Immigration proceedings and my understanding is removal to third country (not El Salvador).

Hating Trump equates to hating America
Why?
I’m serious here. Why is hating Trump the same as hating America?
Does that apply to every politician? Would hating Mitch McConnell or Ron Desantis be hating America? How about Bernie Sanders or AOC or Gavin Newsom?

The equivalence principle: Trump = MAGA = Making America Great, so if you hate Trump you must not want to make America great, which must mean you hate America. QED.

For how many felonies have YOU been convicted? Spankee has 34 or more. Or is that higher than you can count?

So, according to you:
If I hate an adjudicated rapist, I hate America.
If I hate a convicted 34-count felon, I hate America.
Heck, if I hate someone who incited an armed insurrection against America, I hate America.
I don’t think “hating America” means what you think it means.

Don’t believe a damned thing they say. Not.a.single.word.
Their lips move. A foul wind blows through their lips. People and institutions are destroyed. Theirs is the script of hell.
And they do this while waving a cross.

34 felony convictions
Sexual assault
30,000 documented lies in his first term
Attempted overthrow of the 2020 election….
Yes, I hate him for this and more.
Funny how you love him.
Funny how you assume that hating the president means hating America. Does that hold for the hateful things you said about Barack Obama when he was president?
Or is it only true for criminal presidents who are Republicans?

You have that exactly backwards.
And I'll explain why (rather than just shoot off a one-liner).
I love this country because it protects me and respects my rights (and those of others). And, frankly, that's the only reason. If it didn't do either of those things, there would be nothing to love**. Someone who has had to escape totalitarianism would understand***. Under the Felon, neither is guaranteed to me. Rule of law is not respected, due process is not respected. The Felon is killing what made America great.
Therefore, if you love the Felon, you HATE America and what it stands for. (Or stood for...past tense.)
**I'm referring to the country as a political entity, not a piece of land.
***I went to primary and secondary school, and was friends, with at least two of them. One from the USSR, the other from Vietnam.

I once knew a fellow who had lived in a Russian dominated state in Eastern Europe. I think it was Czechoslovakia, but not sure. He had been a psychotherapist there, and he said the most chilling thing was he would have workers who had worked next to someone for 20 years, and one day they were gone. When they inquired about their workmate they were simply told not to ask, but they never saw their workmate again. How could you treat someone who that happened to? What could you say?
Then he told me one day a friend of his told him that the borders were open temporarily and anyone could leave by driving across the border. This was a border with high fences, barbed wire, machine gunned manned guard towers, and a road stretching across a no man's land to the guard station on the other side. He went upstairs, got his wife, and they drove across the border. They didn't take time to pack anything, just got in the car and drove. They spent months in a refugee camp but it was worth it, he told me, as we both drank a beer sitting by the pool after a set of water volley ball in sunny Southern California.
Dammed immigrant.
