Am I on something I shouldn't be? Where in any budget were funds appropriated to sustain a slave trade??? WHERE? Congress has to appropriate funds for this. How did that happen?

Just another way he's following Hitlers playbook. And the republinazis are silently enabling him to do it.

Mark my words, this Nazi death camp will be using more rapid death methods the moment that the numbers go up even more greatly. It is a Nazi death camp. Trump is a Nazi and so is El Salvador's president. We are the ones paying for these people to be in a death camp because Trump is using our tax dollars to pay for it. Why don't we call it Central American Auschwitz or El Salvadoran Auschwitz, or Donald Trump's Auschwitz.

“Administrative error,” my ass. Even were they not paying for these folks to be detained and enslaved, Kilmar Abrego Garcia is unique or nearly so in having been deported (returned to his country of origin) as opposed to renditioned (sent to a third country). It’s not just “El Salvador is a sovereign country”; it is (to actually employ the truth in service of a monstrous act) “we can’t ask a sovereign country to give us one of its citizens except under extradition proceedings related to a crime committed in the US, and he’s not been charged with a US crime ” and/or “the US government can’t tell another country what its laws should be” (though they’re happy to try to tell Europe and Canada what our laws ought to be). Maybe it was an accident—but I’ll believe that only if 1) the rationale remains as it is and doesn’t go further; and 2) they actually reunite Kilmar Abrego Garcia with his family in Maryland.

Of course they’re being paid! I can’t imagine them doing it “out of the kindness of their hearts!” This was viewed as a moneymaking venture, and killing two birds with one stone. Sad indeed.!

Whose $6M was it? Where did it come from?

Oh here's another observation from an American. The motto on the Statue of Liberty concerning immigration is more closely followed by Canada than the United States. Something to think about. HMMMM

I have been trying to sign up for the lifetime subscription for the price of an annual subscription you have been offering but when upgraded to a paid account on Apri 9, 2025, I did not see a lifetime subscription option but saw the annual subscription with a 20% discount. I assumed that signing up for the annual subscription would give me the lifetime subscription you are advertising but after paying for the annual, I see an expiration date of April 9, 2026 so an not sure if I did something wrong in the way I signed up. If I don't have the lifetime subscription, please help me convert the annual one I signed up for to the lifetime one.

Dean this is beyond frightening. The USA is unrecognizable; and half the citizens are walking around totally oblivious to the fact that history is repeating itself and they have become nazi Germany. Unbelievable. 🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦
