They can surely put Steven Miller in Jail. I think Donald and the unsupreme court had all this worked out prior to this event. They knew our low life president was going to blow them off. Saving our Democracy comes down to Amy Coney Barrett. What role will she play in America's history. Is she bought and paid for too? Guess we'll see
Could you clarify as to what a competent reporter could “do” here? There are several competent reporters (actual journalists) reporting on this today and prior to today. TIA
Explain the misinterpretation of the ruling, maybe. April Ryan was good at this, though a barrage of demeaning commentary always followed her pointed questions.
Perhaps set up the question with a clear explanation of the Supreme Court’s ruling, then challenge their response of ‘in our favor’. (not true)
Likely a fool’s errand in a roomful of sycophants.
My terse comment wasn’t meant to be derogatory, but a rallying cry: just to be a reporter in this climate is a righteous calling.
We have family and friends who are active and retired journalists (actual journalists! imagine). It is both a righteous and increasingly fraught/dangerous calling.
I don't know that the issue here is one of needing to "explain" or clarify the SCOTUS ruling - it's clear that this regime will cherry pick, reinterpret/misinterpret/ignore whatever they don't like. And they're more.... defiant? (for want of a better word right now) with every passing day.
April Ryan was very good at this, I agree.
The demeaning commentary and hostile, disrespectful, threatening behavior toward the press in the past decade+ is just jaw-dropping. Of course, some of the stenographers in the WH press pool aren't really reporters or journalists.... they're... stenographers, some of them there to troll.
In any case, we NEED journalists.
My son-in-law (working journalist) did a big investigative project years ago w a follow up book. The death threats (I wish I was kidding) among other things, were insane.
I confess to buying the group "First Amendment Socks" and enameled "America Needs Journalists" pins, in addition to food and drink and providing dog-sitting, - among other things.
Their investigations, reporting, writing were truly acts of courage.
We need more of this.
And SCOTUS needs to not couch certain decisions in what some would call "weasel-speak"....
and when he basically flips them the middle finger (again) and decides he doesn’t have to listen to them…. then what? they could (and should) clarify a lot and some opinions should likely have been written differently - but it seems tRump and company are ignoring judges, with impunity
Unfortunately- the Marshals are under control of the DOJ, and AG Barbi. Nothing will happen- they will leave that poor man in El Salvador for who knows how long.
Trump and his minions never admit they are wrong. Mr. Garcia will suffer the consequences, God help him.
I am concerned about what will happen to him if he stays. Once the dust settles and the issue isn't on the front burner.....I don't want to think about it.
you have to wonder whether the current SCOTUS has even considered that he will replace them eventually? Or do they have their heads buried in the sand so deeply that they ALONE will be safe is their belief? Are they just like the congressional Republicans that the whole point is for them to hold on to their power or lack thereof at all costs?
My thoughts too. What enforcement do they have other than sanctions. The man has no ethics or integrity. Will it be too late to do anything? The midterms seem ages away....can we hold on? Can honest brokers get elected and stop the damage never mind repair it.....I don't know....and it is not just scary but heart breaking,
And, no one is able to stop him. Out of all the ones to be able to do so, it’s Congress. I see him bombing Iran and blaming it on former Presidents. Otherwise, his DOGE is not saving money.
One has to wonder if those few gop in the Senate and House even understand that THEY COULD HAVE STOPPED THIS - GOING ALL THE WAY BACK TO THE FIRST IMPEACHMENT. They probably think they are "safe" from any fate that the rest of us might encounter.....
True, but there are enough who have repeatedly and PRIVATELY said, even since the first impeachment, that they were voting against their true beliefs, and many are now wavering. I don't think anyone thought things would reach the point where we are today... they're STILL saying we can just "fix" it by "winning back the House / Senate in 2026"... OBLIVIOUS to how far away that is, and unable to recognize (accept??) how far IN THE WRONG DIRECTION we've already come to possible destruction. This is what happens when people value their $$$ or their jobs above all else, which is totally UNACCEPTABLE when elected to keep this nation and allll its people safe.
Totally. I've been waiting for the protests to get just a bit bigger (which is any minute now), so the brown shirts could be called in to create just enough "disruption" to "justify" calling for martial law..... he's already disappearing people by claiming that super old law (?) designating were "at danger" as a country.
They are, and intentionally... the "brown shirts" are people like the Jan. 6 insurrectionists at the beck and call of the one who beckoned them to DC that fateful day..
LOTSA puppet masters overseeing all, operating at different levels, some international and some domestic, not entirely aligned in vision but united in destroying the democracy in favor of an authoritarian state that will participate in a "new world order".
Of course Roberts is listening but he's afraid of Trump. What a coward. The supreme court needs to charge orange moron and his band of idiots with treason or any other charge that will keep them in prison until they get the White house in line again. Put orange in a rubber room and toss the key away.
The Supreme Court could & should rescind the Immunity…bc if they don’t…the people will not only be coming after the MAGA-GOP, the Administration, but the Supreme Court & the justices that gave this moron immunity! How stupid can you be! The people are hanging by a thin thread…heaven help all of them if that thread breaks! The French revolution will look like a picnic compared to what will happen in this country…we are bigger, madder than a hornet & mean than a bull in heat! The Republican Party, Supreme Court, Heritage Foundation & White Christian Nationalists created this monstrosity…it took them 50 yrs to get here, but it won’t take the people that long to undo it!
And we’ll make certain never ever let this happen again! We’ll give them all their ‘due process’, you know like they did Kmart Abrego Garcia & once their ‘due process’ is done we’ll send them all down to El Salvador where we know they’ll never ever come back!
How about putting together a list of ALL the billionaires that are backing the moron and MAGA then posting it everywhere to be see, ie billboards, social media etc. This would throw the WH into a tizzy.
Hitler, probably Mussolini. He believes you have to be a “strong man” with no conscience or empathy and addicted to power and money. So he gravitates towards people like that . Cruel isolationists that make their people suffer to have control over them.
Really enjoying being a new member of Midas and a paying subscriber. I truly appreciate all you are doing to take back our democracy and galvanize us. Very disheartened and confused however - why you are allowing Amazon advertising on your podcast while simultaneously talking about the oligarchy? I’d appreciate understanding this.
This is what makes me so f**king mad is that they NEVER push back on the lies. Not just with rTump but any of the maggots & don’t even mention the “pink lady”!
A scavenger hunt has been launched for their spines and integrity. They’ll get back if they find them (?) Otherwise, I have no idea what they’re waiting for.
We need someone like Attorney Welch, who stood up to McCarthy by these words" Senator, have you no decency." That broughtthe Senate to its senses and McCarthy was a goner.
What makes you believe or identify any MAGAs who will support impeaching Trump?
Cannot see it! Doubt that the votes are there. A great deal of work goes into doing that immense undertaking. Would the House even approve of appropriating the funding?
Speaker Johnson would never allow it! My wishes but very doubtful!
It was a disgusting meeting at the WH ... I hope someone takes this meeting, TOTALLY fact checks it, and makes the correct facts VIRAL. I'M so sick of this regime.
So Bondi is basically lying to the reporters that Garcia is now she’s got the paperwork in place that claims and proves that he’s a terrorist. Let’s see that paperwork Pam.
Aside from the official meeting on a hot mic, trump told Bukele “The home-growns. You need to build about 5 more for the home-growns.” That’s US citizens!
Has anyone ever taken time to read up on Narcissism because that's what the idiot is. A full blown Narcissist. It gives a path of ways to defeat him and MAGA.
In his first term a group of psychologists said he was a malignant narcissist with sadist tendencies. Recently it was postulated he employs Munchaussen by proxy for attention: breaking things for attention. Daily Covid press conferences that lasted seemingly hours and fake cures comes to mind. Tariffs on/off, more/less, them/not those… I’ll say he has no empathy, no moral compass. Very dangerous.
Without question this DISGRACE of the Oval Office by two dictators this morning was the worst moment in the history of this nation! I really appreciated the MAGAt idiots; little Marco, NAZI Miller, and stupid Bondi!! The revolution is coming MAGAts!!!
So what is being done when he lies on national international news stations about what the Supreme Court just ruled? Stephen Miller is one of the heads of Project 2025 and should not be commenting one way or the other.
I think my soul is leaving my body. I want to go with it. How many times? How many ways, can we describe the cruelty, this cadre of demons is drowning us in.
There doesn’t seem to be a dictator/autocrat that Trump doesn’t fall in love with, is there?
Putin Jung Un, and Orban can all line up.
Goodness, what is a Federal judge supposed to do with open defiance?
I hope the Supreme Court will issue a statement clarifying their recent ruling.
They cannot do anything. He put them out of business today.
He DOES NOT LISTEN o ANYONE
They have only themselves to blame.
They can surely put Steven Miller in Jail. I think Donald and the unsupreme court had all this worked out prior to this event. They knew our low life president was going to blow them off. Saving our Democracy comes down to Amy Coney Barrett. What role will she play in America's history. Is she bought and paid for too? Guess we'll see
She's a sly one. I wouldn't trust her. I have seen her body language and everything points to this.
I think you are right Shirley...
I hope so. He is the only one with economic knowledge and strength to stand up and win against Trump.
Don't hold your breath waiting.
A competent reporter could do that.
Could you clarify as to what a competent reporter could “do” here? There are several competent reporters (actual journalists) reporting on this today and prior to today. TIA

✅ That just happened
✅ That just happened
IF those 2 points are the criteria
THEN America IS a dictatorship now.
US marshalls.. but heads up they saw this coming and hired private 3%er security that con don had "deputized" as US marshalls...
Its will be OG marshalls vs Hamagas dictator patriot marshalls violence to get the big players into a court room
Correction not "deputized" but "ordained" by con don
Deus Vult
Unfortunately- the Marshals are under control of the DOJ, and AG Barbi. Nothing will happen- they will leave that poor man in El Salvador for who knows how long.
Trump and his minions never admit they are wrong. Mr. Garcia will suffer the consequences, God help him.
I am concerned about what will happen to him if he stays. Once the dust settles and the issue isn't on the front burner.....I don't want to think about it.
They moved him to a part of the prison that is a tiny bit better for his safety. But he is traumatized.
I don't see the point of a Supreme Court if they can't do anything about anything, smh!!
That's Roberts fault. Coward.
you have to wonder whether the current SCOTUS has even considered that he will replace them eventually? Or do they have their heads buried in the sand so deeply that they ALONE will be safe is their belief? Are they just like the congressional Republicans that the whole point is for them to hold on to their power or lack thereof at all costs?
They keep giving us the runaround!
The Supreme Court created this when they made Trump a KING responsible for and to no one!!
Maybe overturn their own stupid immunity rule? Why not, they overturned roe v wade after 50 years of precedent.
Contempt - throw them all in prison
Terrifying
Impeachment. That's s what.
My thoughts too. What enforcement do they have other than sanctions. The man has no ethics or integrity. Will it be too late to do anything? The midterms seem ages away....can we hold on? Can honest brokers get elected and stop the damage never mind repair it.....I don't know....and it is not just scary but heart breaking,
Send in the marshalls
con man is a wannabe dictator
I don't think he's a "wannabe" dictator. I think, horrifically, that he's successfully rushing headlong and willfully into dictatorship.
He's there, for crying out loud!!
And, no one is able to stop him. Out of all the ones to be able to do so, it’s Congress. I see him bombing Iran and blaming it on former Presidents. Otherwise, his DOGE is not saving money.
One has to wonder if those few gop in the Senate and House even understand that THEY COULD HAVE STOPPED THIS - GOING ALL THE WAY BACK TO THE FIRST IMPEACHMENT. They probably think they are "safe" from any fate that the rest of us might encounter.....
True
Or they’re all-in on the Project2025 disaster, complicit, in the tank. A few come to mind immediately.
True, but there are enough who have repeatedly and PRIVATELY said, even since the first impeachment, that they were voting against their true beliefs, and many are now wavering. I don't think anyone thought things would reach the point where we are today... they're STILL saying we can just "fix" it by "winning back the House / Senate in 2026"...

This is what happens when people value their $$$ or their jobs above all else, which is totally UNACCEPTABLE when elected to keep this nation and allll its people safe.
Yeh, like Susie Collins.
Yup. El DOGE reported only found 250 bill in all the rampaging. That's out of promised 1-3 trillion.
and everything I'm reading indicates that even the $250B figure is a gross exaggeration
Honestly believe they are trying to draw us into a civil war against each other so we will be under martial law and have no elections.
I would not be surprised if this happens after the planned April 19 protests.
Totally. I've been waiting for the protests to get just a bit bigger (which is any minute now), so the brown shirts could be called in to create just enough "disruption" to "justify" calling for martial law..... he's already disappearing people by claiming that super old law (?) designating were "at danger" as a country.
But the protests have apoear quite orderly to me.
They are, and intentionally... the "brown shirts" are people like the Jan. 6 insurrectionists at the beck and call of the one who beckoned them to DC that fateful day..
They don't care if it is a peaceful protest. If you protest, you are going against him and he cannot let that happen for long.
There will never be another civil war. Nobody, including Canada has the stomach for one. 🇨🇦
I continue wonder who's pulling the strings, and who plans to profit when he collapses, or is collapsed by outside forces.
LOTSA puppet masters overseeing all, operating at different levels, some international and some domestic, not entirely aligned in vision but united in destroying the democracy in favor of an authoritarian state that will participate in a "new world order".
Is Justice John Roberts and the rest of the Supreme Court listening to Trump challenge the return ruling?
Of course Roberts is listening but he's afraid of Trump. What a coward. The supreme court needs to charge orange moron and his band of idiots with treason or any other charge that will keep them in prison until they get the White house in line again. Put orange in a rubber room and toss the key away.
Roberts is complicit. He's made terrible decisions supporting this evil regime and gave king con immunity
The Supreme Court could & should rescind the Immunity…bc if they don’t…the people will not only be coming after the MAGA-GOP, the Administration, but the Supreme Court & the justices that gave this moron immunity! How stupid can you be! The people are hanging by a thin thread…heaven help all of them if that thread breaks!

They are his biggest enablers. THEY and a few congressional gop. Hope they're all proud.
Not love, because the Orange Orang is incapable of such emotion. Let's call it a sense of kinship.
Let's call it narcissism.
How about putting together a list of ALL the billionaires that are backing the moron and MAGA then posting it everywhere to be see, ie billboards, social media etc. This would throw the WH into a tizzy.
Awesome idea!!
All the dictators can line up for the train Drumpf is going to pull. What an abomination of our highest office!
Is The Supreme Court
Hitler, probably Mussolini. He believes you have to be a “strong man” with no conscience or empathy and addicted to power and money. So he gravitates towards people like that . Cruel isolationists that make their people suffer to have control over them.
You got that right!
djt shopped for all the people who would only say YES to him. He screened them all and that's what we see now. "Yes Sir, Mr President Sir!"
It was an hideous display of unchecked lunacy and power.
Really enjoying being a new member of Midas and a paying subscriber. I truly appreciate all you are doing to take back our democracy and galvanize us. Very disheartened and confused however - why you are allowing Amazon advertising on your podcast while simultaneously talking about the oligarchy? I’d appreciate understanding this.
That’s your take on this report?
No. I just didn’t know where else to pose the question.
Why is it the plural of the c word springs to mind so often in my day ?
Perfect analogy
This is what makes me so f**king mad is that they NEVER push back on the lies. Not just with rTump but any of the maggots & don’t even mention the “pink lady”!
Comes back, "Note not available."
Step one: IMPEACH
Step two: REMOVE
Step three: INCARCERATE
It has to start happening now. What are we ( Congress) waiting for???
Congress is complicit. All these GOP congresspersons care about is making themselves richer. Nothing and no one else.
They found their stooge.
They’re on yet another vacation week. But don’t expect any action from them when they get back.
Forget about congress. They are useless cowards.
A scavenger hunt has been launched for their spines and integrity. They’ll get back if they find them (?) Otherwise, I have no idea what they’re waiting for.
How about hung? He is a traitor.....
He sure ain't hung. But I agree he should be.
There has to be a tipping point- one republican who finds courage to stand up, and another … to break this fearful spell they’re under.
We need someone like Attorney Welch, who stood up to McCarthy by these words" Senator, have you no decency." That broughtthe Senate to its senses and McCarthy was a goner.
Ya know, if we stoop to operating like Trump, think we could dispense with Step One and Step Two
What’s that saying? ‘What goes around comes around ‘🤨
Trouble is, it's not coming around fast enough to smack him in the face--and elsewhere.
He deserves extrajudicial punishment now!
How about karma.
What makes you believe or identify any MAGAs who will support impeaching Trump?
Cannot see it! Doubt that the votes are there. A great deal of work goes into doing that immense undertaking. Would the House even approve of appropriating the funding?
Speaker Johnson would never allow it! My wishes but very doubtful!
Step four - all of them - the entire regime and all loyalists and supporters belong in prison for treason and high crimes
Especially since instead right NOW it's
step one: IMPLUM(B) THE DEPTHS OF DEPRAVITY
step two: RELOVE HIM PUBLICLY
step three: INCANTATE HIS NAME AS IF IN PRAYER
...Oy gevalt.
Totally agree . Dems dont have the balls to do anything though. ( the guys anyway ) . French German name .From Alscace perhaps .
Step four: Larty like we are 20 again 😂
Bingo!
It was a disgusting meeting at the WH ... I hope someone takes this meeting, TOTALLY fact checks it, and makes the correct facts VIRAL. I'M so sick of this regime.
Agree, Terri.
But he’s been fact-checked before -
And THEN WHAT HAPPENS NEXT? < always the question. “and then what…..?"
So Bondi is basically lying to the reporters that Garcia is now she’s got the paperwork in place that claims and proves that he’s a terrorist. Let’s see that paperwork Pam.
Pretty much….
WHY IS NO ONE DOING ANYTHING TO STOP THIS MAN AND STOP THE LIES!!!!!!
Aside from the official meeting on a hot mic, trump told Bukele “The home-growns. You need to build about 5 more for the home-growns.” That’s US citizens!
Never-mind the fact that most “home-growns” are his supporters
For a while. Then come the educated who dared to tell the truth.
They don’t seem to realize, WE are all subject to his totalitarianism!
...and the republiCRAPS are, too. They're just too stupid to see him also dictator over them--
😱🤯🤬🤬🤬
US citizens that challenge him, defy him or hurt his fragile feelings. This is pure evil right here in the WH. He's satans orange brother
Has anyone ever taken time to read up on Narcissism because that's what the idiot is. A full blown Narcissist. It gives a path of ways to defeat him and MAGA.

Without question this DISGRACE of the Oval Office by two dictators this morning was the worst moment in the history of this nation! I really appreciated the MAGAt idiots; little Marco, NAZI Miller, and stupid Bondi!! The revolution is coming MAGAts!!!
Bimbo Bondi is every bit the nasty little fascist just as much as Stephen Miller is a bald Nazi-loving self hating arsehole.
It gets worse every single day. This is beyond anyone's belief and yet nothing from anyone in the Republican Party. zip
Or from the Dems!
What an insult because Trump uses our tax money to pay El Salvador to imprison innocent U.S. citizens and legal immigrants.
THIS IS AN ABOMINATION
When the F*** is enough… enough? When Injustice Becomes Law, Rebellion Becomes Duty! WE THE PEOPLE 😡
So what is being done when he lies on national international news stations about what the Supreme Court just ruled? Stephen Miller is one of the heads of Project 2025 and should not be commenting one way or the other.
Right? Something needs to be done! Blatant lies on international news! Unbelievable.
Omg the fucking lies!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I have no words there’s no words how can this be happening in the United States of America? It has to be a way to stop him please somebody stop him.
Only WE can stop him. Take it to the streets! I did and will continue to do so.
He had Ivana buried in his golf course.
I think my soul is leaving my body. I want to go with it. How many times? How many ways, can we describe the cruelty, this cadre of demons is drowning us in.
