ICE protecting us from the threat of senior citizen women with clean records. Not a good idea to live in a place where law enforcement officers have disappearance quotas. I really suggest the lot of you move away when you can.

 
“… In exchange for helping President Trump carry out his deportation agenda, the United States paid El Salvador millions of dollars, adding an important sweetener at Mr. Bukele’s request: the return of key MS-13 leaders in American custody.

Officials from both countries have said the gang leaders are being sent back to face justice.

But the Trump administration has not acknowledged another reason Mr. Bukele would want them back: U.S. prosecutors have amassed substantial evidence of a corrupt pact between the Salvadoran government and some high-ranking MS-13 leaders, who they say agreed to drive down violence and bolster Mr. Bukele politically in exchange for cash and perks in jail, a New York Times investigation found.

The deal with El Salvador heralded by Mr. Trump as a crackdown on crime is actually undermining a longstanding U.S. inquiry into the gang, according to multiple people with knowledge of the initiative.

Two major ongoing cases against some of the gang’s highest-ranking leaders could be badly damaged, and other defendants could be less likely to cooperate or testify in court, they said.…”
 
Yep...and supported by a huge swath of our society. When you wonder why I've given up on the American people, this is why. Im at the point where I do think this is the majority of us.
What I see is a country where people are angry, misled, and isolated…fed decades of propaganda about who’s to blame for their problems. Most folks aren’t studying policy; they’re reacting to fear, shame, and survival. And the people in power know that. That’s why they push messages like Tuberville’s: they’re desperate to keep people divided.

I don’t believe most Americans walk around thinking Medicaid recipients are “rats.” I think they’ve been conditioned to see poverty through a distorted lens: scapegoating the poor, racializing need, and moralizing hardship.

There’s a reason guys like Tuberville don’t say this stuff out loud during elections. They know it would repel too many people. So they dog-whistle when it counts and save the open cruelty for moments like this when they think no one’s paying attention, or when they’re trying to light a fire under the base. That alone tells you they don’t have a majority, they have a manipulation machine.

We also may not have the majority yet. But I still believe millions of people don’t want to live in the country Tuberville’s selling. We can still break the spell by offering something better.
 

The stupidity of this administration never ceases to amaze me. First, I'm not aware of a big issue with people escaping from ICE detention centers. These are people who want to live and work in the US, not escape decades of hard labor.

Second, the Everglades are not some impassable barrier. They're not exactly hospitable, but the Seminoles have been living there for more than 200 years now. Floridians use them for recreation all the time. And while I may have missed something, I can't remember the last time an alligator attacked a human in the Everglades.

DeSantis, Uthmeier and Bondi have no excuse, but I often think most people in this administration think all of Florida looks like either Mar-a-Lago or The Villages.
