- Came to the U.S. at 16 after fleeing gang death threats
- In 2019, an immigration judge granted him withholding of removal, a legal status protecting him from deportation after finding he'd likely be persecuted if returned
- No U.S. criminal record
- Married to a U.S. citizen, father to a 5-year-old disabled son
- Regularly complied with ICE check-ins
- ICE admitted it knew he had legal protection—but put him on the deportation flight anyway
- Not on the manifest—added as an "alternate"
- Now held in a prison for gang members, despite no charges or verified gang affiliation
The government now argues U.S. courts can't order his return.
His wife recognized him in a propaganda photo released by El Salvador's president—head forced down, frog-marched by masked guards.
ICE calls it an "administrative error."
Then says it was done "in good faith."
The Trump administration knowingly deported a Maryland father with legal protection from removal—sending him to El Salvador’s megaprison.
Kilmar Abrego Garcia’s situation is explained below.

Judith Butler, philosopher: ‘If you sacrifice a minority like trans people, you are operating within a fascist logic’
A leading figure in feminism and gender studies, the thinker welcomes EL PAÍS in California after being voted one of the most influential minds in the world
Judith Butler: "Once you decide that a single vulnerable minority can be sacrificed, you’re operating within a fascist logic, because that means there might be a second one you’re willing to sacrifice, and a third, a fourth, and then what happens?"

Tom Waits on Marianne Faithfull (RIP):
"She's the aunt offering you a cigarette at a wedding when you're 11. Her voice is spooky oil on a squeaky gate, baby powder meets gunpowder."
(pictured: Faithfull acting in a 2004 production of his musical 'The Black Rider')
I just had to share this perfect description of Faithfull’s voice by Tom Waits.

(b) The Federal contracting process shall be streamlined to enhance
speed and efficiency, reduce costs, and require Federal contractors and subcontractors to comply with our civil-rights laws. Accordingly:
(1) Executive Order 11246 of September 24, 1965 (Equal Employment Opportunity), is hereby revoked. For 90 days from the date of this order, Federal contractors may continue to comply with the regulatory scheme in effect on January 20, 2025.
(ii) The Office of Federal Contract Compliance Programs within the Department of Labor shall immediately cease:
(A) Promoting "diversity";
(B) Holding Federal contractors and subcontractors responsible for taking "affirmative action"; and
(C) Allowing or encouraging Federal contractors and subcontractors to engage in workforce balancing based on race, color, sex, sexual preference, religion, or national origin.
(iii) In accordance with Executive Order 13279 of December 12, 2002
(Equal Protection of the Laws for Faith-Based and Community
Organizations), the employment, procurement, and contracting practices of Federal contractors and subcontractors shall not consider race, color, sex, sexual preference, religion, or national origin in ways that violate the Nation's civil rights laws.
(iv) The head of each agency shall include in every contract or grant
award:
(A) A term requiring the contractual counterparty or grant recipient to agree that its compliance in all respects with all applicable Federal
anti-discrimination laws is material to the government's payment

Code; and
(B) A term requiring such counterparty or recipient to certify that it does not operate any programs promoting DEI that violate any applicable
Federal anti-discrimination laws.
BREAKING: In a new executive order sent out by the White House, Donald Trump has revoked the federal contractor nondiscrimination executive order, EO 11246, that was signed by Lyndon Johnson in 1965 and has protected employees of businesses seeking federal contracts from discrimination ever since.

F.B.I. Says It Found Largest Cache of Homemade Explosives in Its History at Va. Farm
Investigators discovered more than 150 devices, mostly pipe bombs, on a property outside Norfolk, court papers say.
The fact that the FBI didn’t hold a press conference announcing the largest seizure of self-made explosives in history tells you everything you need to know about race and ideology of the suspect. Wanna guess? www.nytimes.com/2024/12/31/u...

I was in a store yesterday and a woman collapsed and hit her head on a shelf, cutting her head open. We stopped the bleeding while the clerk called 911. When the ambulance showed up, the woman didn’t want to go to the hospital at first bc she was worried about the cost. Picture unrelated.

The image contains a tweet by Sam Stein, which reads:

Sam Stein (@samstein):
"And there you have it. New bill removes funding for this bipartisan child cancer research program. $190 million -- a small drop comparatively -- is now gone. Will need to be passed at some other point, if it can get passed at all."
Below is a quote of his earlier tweet:
Sam Stein (@samstein):
"The Gabriella Miller Kids First Pediatric Research program was a MASSIVE priority for Eric Cantor. And it was a huge bipartisan achievement in the Obama years. The version under consideration now would allot $190m to fund the program through 2033. ..."
World's richest man took $190 million from healthcare for children with cancer.
It should be Elon getting escorted in shackles.
