Remember, when Trump says criminal, he means someone who criticizes him or whom he simply dislikes. It could be any one of us. Call your damn reps NOW and tell them to draw up impeachment articles. Trump has declared war on the American people.

Everybody is talking about how the cool dictator totally cucked Trump, right there in the Oval Office! He said Trump is powerless to bring prisoners back from El Salvador, and Trump just sat there and smiled. Just a total beta move, man. A macho man would show Bukele who's in charge here.

It's not just brown folks. It's not just immigrants. We've had a German citizen in detention since Jan25, well past her original return flight. www.kpbs.org/news/border-...
