In yet another brazen disregard for the Constitution, Karoline Leavitt confirmed Trump intends to send American citizens to El Salvador. This must be opposed. Criminals or not, deporting to foreign prisons is immoral unethical, and I believe totally illegal.
What's next for Trump? Concentration camps? Just like Hitler moving Jews and others that the Nazis found to be undesirable and moved to prison camps outside of Germany, Trump now wants to do the same thing.
He may start with felons and violent criminals as they stated today, but what is to stop him from "deporting" judges, lawyers, and other politicians that are rivals? What is to stop him from "deporting" journalists and others who are critical of him and his regime? This is frightening!
Please intervene here. We are precariously approaching the ledge and the Republic will be a dictatorship. Failure to act now likely will mean too little too late. Republicans and MAGA legislators clearly do not have the guts to stop. It is up to you to perhaps convince moderate Republicans who surely disagree with Trump but are afraid of the retribution from him and the MAGA oligarchs that threaten to primary them.
Your duty of course is to honor your Constitutional oaths. Please remind the Republicans that they too took an oath to the Constitution. They must not and should not cower and kneel to Trump
Thank you.
