Abrego Garcia's lawyer has asked the court to withhold payment[1]. They may have already paid it all ($6 million for 300 prisoners for a year); I don't know of a source about any payment schedule. And this is Trump administration

Yep, Bukele's response was sickeningly effective. Basically boiling down to Trump and Bukele both saying they can do nothing due to the sovereignty of the other, knowing full well they could convince each other if they actually wanted

What good will that do? If he's going to do it, it will start well before the next election, and I don't think it's going to change anyone's vote either.

Did they get an all-you-can-deport deal on that 6 million paid to Bukele? Why are they so obsessed with using that prison? Did I get trapped in a dystopian story or an Onion article, or is this real life? Some talking points that the right

I wouldn’t be so sure DOGE has such restraint or good faith. Vance said in 2021, “I think what Trump should do, if I was giving him one piece of advice: Fire every single midlevel bureaucrat, every civil servant in the administrative state,

1 vs I is a reading error anyone could make on seeing something for the first time. The real question is how do you be a national leader and go on stage to discuss "AI" with so little understanding of it that you don't detect

If this had happened, wouldn’t people say the result was not legitimate because they didn’t win real primaries, the donors easily gamed the mini-primary, etc? Maybe they were screwed as soon as anything unusual happened, and/or some pe

What is the point of a presidential ballot with only one viable and legitimate candidate? You're just throwing away your choice, because an old man tried to run and then backed out, and his party made possibly the least-impact change t

When the choice was between a current VP or an insurrectionist and convicted felon, anyone who thought Harris was less legitimate for candidacy has a funny definition. (I guess I don’t believe in protest votes or third parties in this clima
