They’re throwing Trump supporters a mental gymnastics buoy they can hold onto in this horrible situation that clearly makes Trump look bad. They just want something to believe in that makes them feel better about their current political views and positions. They don’t care if it is true or not.
The MAGA-sect comments are really frightening. Big resemblance to the Waffen-SS supporters like back in the day.
We will see a President Van Hollen in the White House next after Trump. Mark my words.
Is this real? Crazy if so. Or, I guess par for the course…
Go see for yourself, op posted a link to the tweet: https://xcancel.com/WhiteHouse/status/1913241658579440126
I imagine Nazi Germany would have made very similar Tweets if Twitter was around back then.
I uhh.
I think the “boring” part is over.
Yeah it’s just full on dystopia
Let’s do some fact checking.
THEY said he was wrongly deported. Repeatedly. And refused to do anything about it.
Our jackass Attorney General shared a link recently that said he had “no criminal background” and there’s been no actual evidence that shows he was in MS-13.
And while I’m not sure of his technical, official status, I would say somebody who was allowed to stay in the United States by a judge because of dangers back home, isn’t consider an illegal alien any more, but a political refugee who has asylum in our country.
You have to wonder if this whole thing is just a petty attempt at retribution by Trump, because this guy was allowed to stay in the country the first time.
It’s even worse than that: he’s testing the boundaries.
He’s testing if he can get away with deporting an innocent man. He’s testing if he can ignore the Supreme Court without consequences. He’s testing if the Salvadorian president will stand firm and be his good little concentration camp boy.
If they are successful, it means they can imprison ANYONE they want to.
If they are successful, our Bill of Rights is about to come crashing down.
If they are successful, our Bill of Rights has come crashing down. Past tense!

They didn’t mean for this to happen.
Like hell. Especially since they’re talking openly about kidnapping citizens and political opponents and sending them to the same fate.
The only incompetence was not having their messaging figured out beforehand.

I think it’s simpler than that. Bringing him back would show they did something wrong, and that’s obviously impossible, because he’s the second coming of Prosperity Gospel Jesus.
Simpler even than that. It would mean someone gets to tell them no.
It would also mean we’d have a witness able to report on the prison’s conditions. And the administration can say he’s lying, but when there’s no other source of information about it, people are going to hear him out.
Yes. Fascism is about normalizing treating outsiders as non-human. To do this you expand your crimes step by step. Justifying and normalizing each step. And you don’t have to do it for long. You just move onto the next worse thing quickly.
There was a really good, almost poetic, video that covered this just as Trump took office. It’s been a good reminder for me to keep my compass and perspective.
He has a legal status similar to refugee, but not technically the same because he didn’t apply for asylum within a year of entering.
So yeah, not an illegal alien. Legal resident.
To get more technical, he had the kind of residency that has a higher standard than being an asylum seeker that prohibits them from being deported to the country they are from.
El Salvador was the ONLY place he was not allowed to be deported to.
His official status wasn’t asylum per se, but his status was he could be deported ANYWHERE BUT EL SALVADOR if the courts deemed fit. Which he was not deported through the courts, and they sent him to El fucking Salvador, the one place it would be illegal to send him to.
This whole situation has me so pissed off, this country sucks.
They only say he was wrongly deported (kidnapped) under oath.
Jesus tapdancing christ
Is anonymous going to do anything?
We’ll find out if they do something. The same way we would find out if someone did something anonymously.

The greatest country in the world my a**.
“So is the US the greatest country in the world?”
“The US isn’t the greatest country in the Americas.”
is america graet again yet?
Well we are certainly grating again…
The fact an official gov channel is posting this kind of childish shit is abhorrent and embarrassing. If I pulled shit like this at my job I’d be thrown out. Fucking slime.
Not just government – the official White House account. It’s… dystopian…
Nah in Dystopias the megacorps and evil governments tend to be intelligent and refined with armored limousines and some sense of style, even the glutenous autocrat steriotype tends to have a kind of weird refinement or at least be intelligent enough to not be ridiulous in public, or at least in the presence of a large number of guys with guns who can look meaningfully at anyone who might laugh.
What this is, is some weird idiocracy shit only without any of the redeeming characteristics of the people in that film.
Thank you for using Idiocracy in the correct context. I hate always seeing it used as-is without any caveats.
Actually, dystopia is basically a ‘bad’ (dys-) ‘place’ (-topia). So the common view of what a dystopia looks like is not the only way it can look. Being ruled by dumb toddlers that break everything in their way is a very different dystopia than one with evil megacorps but it is still quite dystopian to me.
I don’t know how to express this feeling I have properly so bear with me. I kinda hate the reference of political office as a job. It’s not really a job. It’s a position of societal power. One that should come with, frankly, deadly consequences when people in that position of power start talking like this. This is a branch of the government saying fuck the courts and their decision. There should be blood over that. Equating it to a job just rubs me wrong. Not to shit on you, I have no problem with what you said, I agree with it even. Just expressing general thoughts

Welcome, bootlicker. Hope you stay. ❤️
Yeah, a duty to hundreds of millions of people and the future, that one has to volunteer for and convince a plurality of their fitness for… not just a job that you should be able to neglect, let alone subvert.
the people have a duty to punish those that abuse that position
Bro you aren’t shitting on my post at all and I 100 percent agree.

Well they’re supposed to work for us, so what’s the next step?
I didn’t notice who posted it on X until I read your comment and I just…I’m shocked I am shocked by this because I feel like I’ve been getting numb to the stupidity of the last ~4 months
So let me know when you want to organize international brigades. John brown clubs are welcome to connect with me.
Asking this in public makes you look like a fool.
Not really , at one point or another you need to normalize it. Also doxxing me would be difficult.
Cruelty and punching down. Torturing Christians.
Somehow American Christians majority voted for this.
