If there’s no remedy for an immigrant, then there is no remedy for a US citizen either.
I’ll note that the Trump administration is using taxpayer dollars to keep people in this prison in El Salvador.
Oopsie we fucked up your life… Sowwee!
And the excuses were really thin. Among other things:
- Tattoos of crowns and clocks
- “I love you” symbol in sign language,
- being in the same area as a law enforcement target
It’s real Nazi science, this identification of criminals by skin colour, tattoos, and gestures. Perhaps they should study head shape too. Anyway, trigger their Nazi spidey sense and you’ll be kidnapped and trafficked into permanent imprisonment and slavery in a foreign country where you have no legal rights. They don’t have to prove you did anything. And half the US population will cheer because they can’t imagine it will ever happen to them.
Yeah. There are some gangs (eg: Police gangs in Los Angeles) which do use tattoos to identify themselves, but not all gangs do so, and most tattoos are not gang-related.
ICE are not taking any care about what the tattoos are. There was a story of someone being sent to prison in El Salvador because they had an autism awareness tattoo, which looked a bit pride-y because it was rainbow colored. If they don’t like the look of you they’ll find an excuse. Nazis are like that.
Meanwhile the utterly incompetent Secretary of Defense has white nationalist tattoos all over him and that’s just fine with them.
Now is the time to start standing up for each other
No take backsies.

Try to be more white next time.
That’s the problem with the removal of due process. The facts don’t matter. Being accused makes you guilty and subjects you to the maximum penalty under the law.
If you think the Trump administration isn’t going to extend this to LGBT people next and people who disagree with their policies after that, you aren’t paying attention.

Why would the free world cut ties with the United States? The free world has ties with the China and Saudi Arabia. It had ties with Russia until a couple years ago… The free world doesn’t care about morality, only interests.

and now can’t get them back
That part is very, very purposeful.
They can absolutely get him back, these are just games for the courts.

I didn’t say it would be trivial but this is the US government. They can absolutely achieve this if desired.

Guy might already be dead if the right prison gang noticed him.
“Mistakenly”
Just like the innocents murdered by the death penalty?
Party of cruelty at its finest.
Well, fuck the Trump administration, but also: fuck El Salvador.
The courts should order Hegseth, Gabbard, Waltz, Vance or Trump to go find the guy in the El Salvadorean prison themselves.
Those dumb assholes couldn’t find their way out of a Wal-Mart.
Call it what it is, concentration camps.
Fuck trump
this is basically the plot of the movie Brazil
Kafkas The Trial is less fictional every day
I wonder how many people are going to become terrorists because of this treatment?
the giant hemorrhoid-in-chief has already cultivated a whole new generation of american-hating terrorists… that was last time. this time around, it’s just reinforcement for them to expand their numbers and sustain that hate for generations-yet-to-come.
How long until this administration starts doing Pinochet helicopter tours?
