I hope we are scaring Donnie Dumb Dumb and his sheep. I hope they are shaking. It's time for them to be fearful of the real patriots who are defending our great nation, our constitution and our democratic way of life. #MeidasMightyStrong

Sheep are an exception to the natural order in the animal kingdom of democracy. Sheep will follow their leader over a cliff.

Democrat Congressman Leo Ryan and his staff were gunned down by Temple members at Jonestown.......Cult leader Jim Jones gave the order.

Jackie Speir managed to survive.

Definatly......They should go in a miitary helicpoter with US forces protection.

Cult leader Donable Lector would give the order to open fire on US citizens on foreign soil. This would solidify his dream of becoming the next Adolf Hitler.

Let's not fall into populism ourselves (THE main risk, right now, when it comes to the pro-democracy movement). Yes, we need some high-profile actions, of course. But what SO SO many Democratic Reps and Senators are doing in DC, day in day out, is extremely important too. As long as we don't learn to cultivate curiosity for their work and focus on "celebrity TV" actions only, democracy will always remain fragile... . It's actually how we got here in the first place. Democrats under Biden/Harris objectively did an absolutely outstanding job and yet, more than half of the country didn't know at all...

We extradite people all the time.

I've yet to see a report mentioning our treaties with El Salvador and our extradition history with them.

BTW, the Vatican probably can't help us extradite him as they have many times when we tried to get people out of Cuba, because Bukele's father converted from Christianity to Islam in the 1980s, became an Imam, and founded four mosques in El Salvador.

We don't live in a perfect world....even if Garcia is returned, he is subject to deportation to anyplace except El Salvador.

He had a hearing befora an IJ -- Immigration Judge -- who, in effect paroled him because to return to El Salvador was to jeopardize his life.

No doubt Trump is in contempt, but the procedure could be extradition.

We have a checkered history with El Salvador. From AI

Challenges and Disputes:

There have been reports of the Salvadoran government refusing to extradite MS-13 gang leaders to the United States, despite extradition requests.

Some argue that the Salvadoran government may be protecting certain gang members, possibly in exchange for a reduction in violence.

This situation has led to tensions between the United States and El Salvador, with the U.S. government publicly pressuring El Salvador to extradite the gang leaders.

Key Points:

The extradition treaty provides a legal framework for transferring individuals to face justice in either country.

There are ongoing disputes and challenges related to the extradition of MS-13 gang leaders, with some reports suggesting that the Salvadoran government may be shielding certain individuals.

The situation has led to tensions between the two countries, with the U.S. government publicly pressuring El Salvador to comply with extradition requests

n addition to a request for mandamus, if I were the ACLU, I'd hire a civil rights lawyer in El Salvador.

From AI: In El Salvador, habeas corpus is a legal remedy to ensure personal freedom and prevent illegal detention. The Supreme Court of Justice, and in some cases the Appellate Court, are responsible for protecting constitutional rights, including habeas corpus. The Constitutional Chamber of the Supreme Court has jurisdiction over habeas corpus claims.

Sounds good and the right thing to do. The Orange combover regime is not paying attention to the legal system. Some law firms are kissing the Orange butthole. ........The GOP traitors have declared war on the voters and the people of America.............the people must keep hitting the streets in greater and greater numbers.

People like Donnie Dumb Dumb (btw I love this) never get scared. They just continuously become more angry and unforgiving. This is why he's so dangerous and destructive. He will have to be led out of the white house in handcuffs. That's a dictator!!!
