Yes, this administration is already stepping over that thin red line you describe. Every time I allow the description of what happened to the gay barber as the deportees were unloaded off the buses at the prison, I cry.
I will be sharing this particular newsletter to Substack notes & all other sm platforms that I use. I want my friends, family members, & strangers, to stop, look in a mirror, & ask themselves if they really want to follow them over that line. I hope, that for many of them, the answer is no. I am certain that I will stand up against this tyranny & violence.
Thank you so much for your kind words and for sharing my work. I am so sorry not to answer sooner. I have been so ungodly busy. All the best and thank you again.
What I cannot understand is how the US government can send people who have been convicted of no crime can be sent, not back to their home country, but to a prison in a completely different country? If the deportees are illegal immigrants, surely his only legal resource is to return them to Venezuela? And isn't that disallowed for a lot of them as their lives would be in danger if they returned? And also, if he sent these people to jail in El Salvador, what's to stop him sending ANY American citizen. It may be against the law, but so are a lot of the things trump's mob are doing. And even if they said " Oh, it was a mistake!" (see Signalgate) once you're in a Salvadoran jail, how the hell do they get you out? This IS what happened in Nazi Germany - not all the people in the camps were Jews, Communists, homosexuals etc. - some of them just got scooped up with the rest. And were never seen again.
Sorry for the delay in replying. I have been so damned busy. I too wonder how we Americans could have gotten here and the crimes of humanity that Trump and his regime are already committing. I wish I had answers other than to say that as long as Trump remains in power those poor people will not leave that El Salvadorian concentration camp. We have to keep fighting and not give up to ensure that his time in office is a short as possible. The damage will be so long lasting as it is. All the best.
Please don't apologise - I don't expect a reply, I am just grateful for all the sense that you write. I hope you gather many more readers. The country desperately needs every grain of sense it can garner at the moment.
Thank you Dr. Hall. The actions of the regime are stunning in how fast and furious they are coming. I believed that they would try to achieve complete power, but I did not ever expect that it could happen so quickly. They are bent on destroying everything and will not stop by their own accord. We have to find a way to stop him.
Babette, Indeed it is a nightmare scenario. I am hoping that more people will arise from their stupor as millions began to do last week. Hang in there.
Kristi Noem, during her time as Governor of South Dakota, also put a bounty on "predator animals" like possums and raccoons. And put up photos on her Governor's webpage of her and her grandkids, first of a live raccoon in a cage, and then of a dead raccoon, and the little grandkids poking it with their fingers, and called it "Good outdoor family fun!"
Thank you for your comments. I apologize fore not replying sooner but the past week has been crazy busy. I hope that you continue to read and commenting. Thank you again. All the best.

Even Without name-calling, the “fog of war” takes on disastrous consequences.
Self/care is essential for the healing to occur.
Babette, you are absolutely correct on all counts. All the best.
Their well planned
ruthless blitzkrieg
is so shocking
I can barely process it.
They have taken over
the most powerful country
in the history of the world
without firing a shot.

Nightmare scenario.
When will the others wake up?

She's a psychopath.
