This week I did some digging—not opinion pieces, not partisan rants, just raw numbers and the bureaucratic language behind them. What I found was this: In 2024, the Biden administration deported 3,706 people labeled as “suspected or convicted gang members.” That’s not conjecture—that’s straight from the Department of Homeland Security. And yet somehow, this mass removal didn’t generate a whisper from the mainstream press. No headlines. No think pieces. No somber profiles on NPR.
So I kept digging, trying to understand what “suspected” meant. Who was doing the suspecting? What was the threshold? Was there evidence, or just vibes?
Turns out, it wasn’t much different than how gang affiliations were “identified” under Trump. Tattoos. Neighborhoods. Associations. A traffic stop where the passenger looked nervous. A Facebook post. Nothing that would hold up in court. Nothing that involves a jury or a judge or even a clear accusation. Just a label. Stamped. Processed. Deported.
And here’s where it gets Orwellian. Under Biden, there were no names released. No mugshots. No profiles. No gang names even mentioned. Just numbers—clean, faceless numbers. Like they were vanishing data rows instead of people, it was “border enforcement” by spreadsheet. No story, no resistance. And because it was wrapped in technocratic language and not Trump’s Twitter feed, the media let it slide.
Compare that to what happened when Trump named names. When he put a face, a label, a life on someone—Kilmar Abrego Garcia, for example—the media went into full-on martyr mode. Senator Chris Van Hollen is now at the airport with a carry-on bag full of due process arguments, ready to fly to El Salvador and bring Kilmar back to his family. A restraining order filed by Kilmar’s wife in 2021? Not mentioned. Doesn’t fit the arc.
This isn’t about protecting immigrants. This is about optics. One president plays the quiet bureaucrat, another plays the loud demagogue—and both disappear people. The difference is only who we’re told to feel bad for.
So here’s the truth: I’m not here to defend Trump. I’m not here to bash Biden. I’m here to point out the perverse theater of it all. If deporting 3,706 “suspected” gang members is okay under Biden, but a constitutional crisis under Trump, then we’ve lost the plot.
Due process doesn’t care who’s in office. But apparently, the media does.
And no, the Democrats won’t win anything running on this. It’s not a winning issue, it’s not even a coherent one. It’ll be forgotten by the time midterms roll around—replaced by a new face, a new outrage, a new hill to die on. If they’re smart, they’ll stop elevating murky cases like Kilmar’s as banner causes. Because in a campaign built on contradictions, the only thing that grows is the doubt.
Did Trump make a big fuss over Kill-mar? Maybe there was an announcement but I don't recall it. I suspect something else is at work here. Kill-mar isn't your garden variety MS-13 apparatchik. He's an asset, perhaps the CIA's or the DNC's dirty tricks outfit. Drugs and human trafficking seem to be his professional remit. The Dems have gone all-in on Kill-mar and assaulted us with a firehose of propaganda we haven't seen since George Floyd. There has to be more to this story.
As has been mentioned before many times, the Biden Mob WAS different, open borders. Why did they risk so much political capital on Mayorkas tripe? Why?
Money, plain and simple. Cooperation with Mexican cartels and maybe all the way to China. Money, in the form of drugs murdering Americans and human smuggling and slavery. All Mob expertises! Money funneled into the political machines in Washington, DC. Money used to try to destroy Trump and MAGA, the only roadblock in the way of the Mob machine operating in perpetuity.
For those that think there is no difference? The Mob machine will not operate very well with a relatively closed border. It is not finished yet, but continuation of building the walls, hiring ICA and border patrol folks, and better sonar and radar monitoring is going to put a huge dent in future plans for the Mob.
A thought, with Trump staying in place, where is the Mob going to sell their goods? Where is Hollywood et al going to get their drugs? Where are rich going to get their slaves? Questions that will be answered over the next 4 yrs -100 days. Hint, hint: Watch out Europe, watch out Canada. Where are you going to build your walls to stop the invader?
OBTW, who exactly is funding all this? Who is right in the middle of it, providing resources for the Mob? Take your pick. Consider too that it may not be Xi’s CCP, but the Chinese edition of the Mob.
John----to answer your question, I think the people funding all of this are the same suckers that funded all the illegals travel costs-------US Taxpayers. Buried in all of the alphabet agencies are disbursements to NGOs that in turn disburse the funds to whomever the Dem/Marxists have hired as foot soldiers to accomplish what they need done. It is similar to the family of the guy being executed by firing squad having to pay the cost of the bullet to kill him. Xi's CCP is just looking on with amazement/amusement that they do not have to pay anything for the Dem/Marxists to try to destroy their own country.
Do you think Hunter Biden would be above consorting with the cartels to fund his drugs and whores ? If he can grovel to the Ukrainian criminals, I am sure he would have no trouble dealing with the cartels.
This deportation brouhaha is just a distraction from the eventual unveiling of where the money came, where it went and who it went to. If there were any US Govt funds involved there is now a mechanism which can track the flow. This is what they are really scared about. Expect it to get worse as they close in on the Truth.
Agreed, I have always felt that the open border financed much of the activities of the Biden Mob. I hope that Ice’s exposure of the depth of the invasion comes to light.
I think john it's broader than Biden ever could be but what has become the DS,The DS being any of those useless tools in DC who only look at there subjects with contempt and are all in it for themselves to fleece the Guberment.I have to ask how an immigrant/citizen like the Omar has a worth of 9M after having served only since 2019?
Agree. I am guessing the Trump admin knows exactly who he is, and went after someone who is probably making bank for the Democrat arm of the elite cabal. And yeah, it's probably trafficking. Just hazarding a guess. There has to be a reason they are going so balls-to-the-wall for this guy, that they'd send some goofy senator there to El Salvador. He must be more than just some dude to use for a virtue-signaling media moment.
Or he does not have the standard ms13 face and neck tattoos so they thought he would be a media coup ie a mistaken deportee that is how they framed it in the beginning.
I suspect they opened yap went all in and then the real details started filtering out.
How ever hitting all stop and going dark about this kind of subject is simply not in the Democrat play book they always double down no matter how wrong our out touch with reality they appear and in reality are.
The other optic in this once these kinds of hit pieces are implanted into their base of weirdos minds these weirdos will go on talking about this kind of crap for years.
We still hear Russia Russia Russia even after that dark op has been soundly debunked as disinformation.
Anything that paints Trump in a negative light is never let go.
Yes. He's also pudgier than most of the MS-13 gangsters I've seen, who seem to live on a steady diet of meth and push-ups. He's probably a CIA asset, working for all the Taco Bell he can eat.
Let’s say you’re right. Why is Kilmar the face of this hill they’ve chosen to die on? I like to put myself in Blue Shoes and stand on that side of the fence. I’m thinking out of the tens of thousands that have been deported, they couldn’t come up with a better martyr than a guy who is a walking contradiction? Maybe you’re right. They weren’t stupid enough to hire a 20-year-old as a sharp-shooter. What the fuck do I know?
I can’t fault them. I know it’s taken me a lifetime to see through the non-stop barrage of propaganda. I can’t expect others to have that kind of strength. Not on Good Friday. Maybe I’ll wait til Monday.
The Democrats aren't going to die on this hill. They won as soon as they started crying.
This current drama has, I think, at least two purposes. And neither of them is what is being portrayed by the media.
One is, of course to demonize Trump. The TDS-sufferers have been rending their garments and gnashing their teeth since the selection, think of how much further around the bend they can be driven over the next four years.
Another is to "normalize" illegal immigration. "Nobody's illegal!!!" They're all loving fathers, devoted mothers, and Nobel laureate children. And we NEED them!!
This year it's a "suspected member of MS-13". Next year it will be a known member of the Sinaloa Cartel - "but such a loving father!!" And "He'll have his civil rights violated by the Gulf Cartel if we force him to return home!!"
Whether Kilmar makes his hero's return or not, the Democrats will have increased their infatuation with illegal immigrants and their hatred of Trump. It doesn't matter that the Trump-haters won't remember the events that ratcheted up their hatred. All that matters is that they hate him more than ever.
"He'll have his civil rights violated by the Gulf Cartel if we force him to return home!!" ~ Blackbird
Yes, most countries grant asylum on that basis.
This I love - Canada is accepting asylum inquiries from our Alphabet People, under the same logic. They are not safe here. Oh my, fearing for their lives!
Nothing like Canada, with their own mental illness, normalizing that of our Alphabet People.
The world has gone mad, Bird, mad I tell you. Except for Saba. The invite still stands for June. C'mon man.
Could it be that the Maryland Dems are beholden to MS13 related to voter turnout within the “undocumented” hordes? Is MS13 now an NGO operative for the Dems? Is Kilmar a critical keystone on the Maryland Mob and maybe knows too much to be let loose? Is the Senator possibly setting up a hit? I would not put anything beyond the criminal outreach of the Deep Democrat blue zones.
Good questions! Killmar might be safer at CECOT than back in Maryland. And that's a problem. Did the Senator also meet with the gang-bangers who allegedly hate his mother's papusas? Maybe he just gave them a "signal."
We should move the capital back to Trenton, NJ. That way, Virginia and Maryland could return to their rightful position as conservative Southern states.
Michael---thanks for the background. If only we had real journalists in the legacy media today. I am sure that this info will be picked up and discussed in detail on the View.
Deporting 3706 "suspected" gang members and using a rounded off rough estimate of 10,000,000 immigrants under Biden's watch is slightly more than 0.03%. Nothing to get excited or brag about. You claim the issue is due process, where was your commentary on the lack of due process when it came to J6 prisoners who were left to rot in jail waiting for trial dates. I think your truth and point is lost on those who value decency and the responsibility of government to protect it's citizens.
Okay, Cosmo, you need to take a deep breath. We’re not discussing J6 prisoners here and you’re absolutely right about their due process being violated and coercion being applied. I know all about it. I’m not discussing that. I am saying as far as my research goes there is no difference or very little difference between the lack of due process both Biden and Trump were and are applying to suspected gang members but during Biden, they were “statistics” under Trump “ripe for political narratives”. As far as I’m concerned, the only due process necessary is whether or not they are in the country legally. If not, they should be deported. Suspected gang member or not.
Basically, the establishment, legacy media, didn't really do their job when Biden was President. They molded opinion by selectively lying. They pushed a narrative. They even concealed President Biden's mental condition.
Now, the establishment, legacy media IS doing their job--selectively, that is. They are molding opinions by putting the flashlight to the Trump Administration's oversights.
Just because they didn't report on Biden's excesses and infractions of the Constitution does not mean they should not report on Trump's.
~ The Embedded Sociocultural Disconnects & Cognitive Dissonance Paradox ~
The problem is a paradox:
As a historically, fundamentally small-scale, generalist social species in a sufficiently-complex, larger-scale society that depends on hyperspecialization, we need everyone doing their jobs pretty much effectively and conscientiously.
But we are not bees, ants or termites, not as simple and too complex as individuals, so we don't do our jobs like that, like bees, ants or termites. The termite mound is a marvel of communism; the wild cat, a marvel of individualistic anarchy; the human, something in-between, but also currently in social setups that are at once out-of-scale and decoupled from our 'natural wiring' and, as such, fundamentally cognitively dissonant...
They demand intelligence for complexity and hyperspecialization, but that very complexity and hyperspecialization leads to oversimplicity in the hypespecialized spheres, which leads to repetition, stagnation, boredom, corruption and, according to some tentative research, even a loss of intelligence.
Essentially, an overscaled hyperspecialized human society leads to a kind of lobotomy and dislocation/disconnect from nature, its complexities, and how our ancestors lived within it and the contexts of their families, tribes and villages.
When some of us talk about our mad world, it's not far from the truth: The world we've created around us like a prison is out-of-scale and detached from our small-scale tribal wiring.
Could you provide a source/link for "the Biden administration deported 3,706 people labeled as 'suspected or convicted gang members' in 2024"?
I'm scouring the web, but can't find that info. The best I can find is AI's summary that "In 2024, the DHS, through ICE, arrested 1,155 criminal gang members."
Biden deported 270,000 immigrants in 2024, the most in the last ten years, an effort to stem the tide of resentment he’d built with Americans over his first three years in office. 32% of them had criminal records, according to CNN. According to DHS documents and ICE, 3706 people deported in 2024 were either suspected or “convicted” gang members. They don’t go into details on what they were convicted of nor what differentiates them from “suspected.” And from that, I’m extrapolating that must mean whatever due process they received was minimal if any at all. And from that, I’m relating how Garcia was treated, which sounds no different than how he might have been treated under Biden. Furthermore, Biden’s ICE and DHS, didn’t name the gangs or the affiliates, which in some sense, is worse than what Trump has done by putting names and faces on gang members. Some of my research turned up how Biden’s ICE determined one was a gang member and it went as far as social media posts, dress code and third party sources. That too is no differnt than Trump. SO the numbers are really that important. Whether it’s 3706 or 1155, they are being treated more or less the same. The difference is Biden allowed the media to look the other way, Trump is rubbing their face in it.
THERE ARE SOME MEMES ABOUT RUNNING HIM AS PRESIDENT:
MS-13steria: Best Sen. Van Hollen Loves MS-13 Memes (DeMS-13!)
Margaritagate, haters will say these videos are fake, exclusive pic of Dems with a victim of illegal immigrants, more signs aging boomers have to go and more Sen. Van Hollen loves MS-13 memes!
Yeah, not so much so, Paul. People with Harvard degrees are still going to get selected before someone with a degree from Utah State University or University of Nevada-Reno. I don't disagree with you on the school but those degrees still carry a lot of weight.
Or maybe the money required to get that degree means that you are blue blood enough to get preferential treatment from the PTB level of the USA? Are we so gullible that we believe these jokers at Harvard are any better than Arizona State or AU? How to keep control of the masses, create Ivy League mystique.
I knew a kid from high school (dumb and black) but good at foosball. He got into Harvard and the first week he was there, he stole a car. They swept it under the rug and nothing happened to him. Later on, he beat his girlfriend, and that went away too.
Money is actually not the big issue. Yes, Harvard is a lot of money, but a lot of people have a lot of money.
It's the candidate's connections and background that differentiate those who get accepted from those who do not.
And if you get accepted and really can't afford it, no worries, the endowment, alumni contributions, and the super-expensive tuition the paying students pay will provide the resources to cover the tab.
Skin so pale that the blue of the blood in the veins can be seen. But in fact, Whites are the least represented group at Harvard - non-Jewish Whites that is.
It may be less valuable now that everyone knows DEI/affirmative action is their primary modus operandi. So many useless, DEI functionaries have Harvard fake degrees.

I kept having to refer back to whose stack I was reading. Though I've never, ever, in my entire life read the NYT, I thought I had somehow stumbled on its current front page story!
Seriously, I laughed my head off reading this parody of a NYT or possibly Atlantic story.
The line between normality and absurdity has been blurred by today's democratic party to such an extent that these days it is difficult to discern between what is satire and what is real. The ongoing Kilmar Abrego Garcia imbroglio perfectly encapsulates this.
Fantastic satire today, Mr. Kunstler. Thought I was reading an article at the Babylon Bee.
What's going on here is quite simple to understand. To provide "due process" to every illegal immigrant that ICE needs to deport would result in millions upon millions waiting in line for the courts. We have not the legal infrastructure to process this many people. In short, what the Democrats are doing and what "super judge Jeb (whose grandeur and authority surpass that even of God himself) are essentially creating amnesty for tens of millions of illegal immigrants brought here by the evil fucker Joe Biden and his Gollum like demonic troll Alejandro Mayorkas.
Super judge Jeb should be swinging from a lamp post for usurping authority he does not have but instead he'll publish his "memoirs" and retire in style on the beaches of Bora Bora while America burns.
God I love this Country. I love lawyers and judges even more.
The whole thing is absurd. The system can't reform the system. We need a coup. A state of emergency so that things can get done. Do I trust Trump that much? Actually I don't. So there you go.
I've said it before, Lugh, and I'll say it again. Donald Trump cannot do a damned thing without a willing Congress. So, there really isn't any need to trust Trump. Everything that is wrong in American government is because of Congress. The executive is too powerful? Because Congress abandoned its check system of the Executive. Deficit spending is too high? Congress controls the money. Taxes are too high? Congress controls taxation. Inflation too high? Congress controls the money supply and could control the Fed if it wanted to. Everything comes down to Congress. Not Trump. Not Biden. Congress. The United States Congress is an absolutely dismal failure from the top to the bottom. It needs to be destroyed. Removed. Completely re-considered. How representatives are chosen needs to be reformed. No more elections.
I hope that one day I'll see it happen. Maybe a coup will make it happen. Who knows? What I do know is the Congressional system we have today has failed the American people in a colossal and monumental failure and few there be that care. Too busy focusing on Trump or Biden while the US Congress conducts piss poor and totally irrelevant "investigations" that accomplish absolutely nothing good for the American people.
Can anyone name one good thing the US Congress has done for the American people lately? I sure as hell cannot.
Here is my "conspiracy theory," though like many other conspiracy theories put forth by conservatives, I suspect that there is a really good chance that it's true. Here it is:
If one starts to work backwards from Kilmar, the MS-13 gangbanger, and all the Democrat swine rushing to his defense, you then get to all the gangs supported by the Mexican drug cartels. Go back from there, you get the Communist Chinese supplying the cartels with all of nasty stuff to make fentanyl. If you are then wondering why the Democrat swine--from Congressmen to leftist judges--seem to be all in on protecting Kilmar, et al--and making sure that they are staying in the U.S., it just seems very possible that those Democrats are being fed a good load of laundered "dark" money from the ChiComms, via the cartels, washed through a bunch of leftist-controlled NGO's and unexamined federal "Swamp money" pointed the Democrats way. Think of it, the ChiComms weakening U.S. internally via drugs and corruption while making its treasonous Democrat operatives rich along the way. Not to mention that the Soros family is likely also in on the deal.
Then comes Trump, who throws the turd in the punch bowl by declaring that the illegal aliens will be deported, the borders secured against the traffickers, and that DOGE will be sniffing around all that Swamp and NGO money that has been doled out without oversight. It all sparks of a Chinese Communist government working to destroy the U.S. economically (when they're not trying to do it directly with viruses) from within, using an entire American political party--the Democrats--totally infiltrated and compromised by traitors likely on the take from their ChiComm, Mexican cartel , and Soros masters. That sounds like the plot from a really shitty horror movie, but sadly, it may be actually true. Truth is, the U.S. is at war with the ChiComms and the Mexican cartels, along with the treasonous Democrats supporting both--the problem is that, at least so far, it is only they, not law-abiding, working Americans, who are doing all of the killing.
Boasberg, lately famous for authorizing illegal surveillance of President Trump. is ignoring the fact that his previous order was tossed out by SCOTUS...George Washington would have had him shot....
Democrats have adopted the view that they don't have to do anything that Trump says because according to them he's an illegitimate president, and therefore they're under no obligation to obey him. This mentality exists from state governors to county clerks.
Cannot help noticing that Harvard self-confidence has not been matched by Harvard performance for quite a while. Admitting some bias, that Harvard verbiage has been replaced by UPenn grads cutting through the fog. Unspoken: the US Constitution is not a suicide pact, and our founders words should not be interpreted to yield absurd results.
In the world of current affairs, as you so sarcastically and aptly put, it’s no longer the American dream which according to the left never existed, but now it’s the American nightmare.
Fight fight fight. Three words coined by Trump but existed way before he was born and was uttered by Americans Patriots throughout our country’s history. We must remember those words, in order for us to save our country.
God bless Trump, his staff and us,the American citizens,
who dearly love what America still stands for. (Hint: it’s not the nightmare!). Remember, WE WILL PREVAIL INDEED!
The truly patriotic and sane are still waiting for the meetings between the families of the raped and murdered young women while the Demoncraps pose with their true constituency, illegal invaders. If only we could accept the subjugation and hardship they wish to impose on us for defying their desire for permanent power and grift, then perhaps they would turn away from foreign invaders and actually do something for the country. Alas, even the useful idiot Demoncraps are too far gone to turn back to normalcy and refrain from their corruption and immorality, as their chosen leaders show them how to game the system and grow ever richer on pilfered funds. The Demoncraps are desperately seeking, no demanding, return to power since their ability to steal public funds has placed them in economic jeopardy and poorhouse bound.

And here’s where it gets Orwellian. Under Biden, there were no names released. No mugshots. No profiles. No gang names even mentioned. Just numbers—clean, faceless numbers. Like they were vanishing data rows instead of people, it was “border enforcement” by spreadsheet. No story, no resistance. And because it was wrapped in technocratic language and not Trump’s Twitter feed, the media let it slide.
Compare that to what happened when Trump named names. When he put a face, a label, a life on someone—Kilmar Abrego Garcia, for example—the media went into full-on martyr mode. Senator Chris Van Hollen is now at the airport with a carry-on bag full of due process arguments, ready to fly to El Salvador and bring Kilmar back to his family. A restraining order filed by Kilmar’s wife in 2021? Not mentioned. Doesn’t fit the arc.
This isn’t about protecting immigrants. This is about optics. One president plays the quiet bureaucrat, another plays the loud demagogue—and both disappear people. The difference is only who we’re told to feel bad for.
So here’s the truth: I’m not here to defend Trump. I’m not here to bash Biden. I’m here to point out the perverse theater of it all. If deporting 3,706 “suspected” gang members is okay under Biden, but a constitutional crisis under Trump, then we’ve lost the plot.

As has been mentioned before many times, the Biden Mob WAS different, open borders. Why did they risk so much political capital on Mayorkas tripe? Why?
Money, plain and simple. Cooperation with Mexican cartels and maybe all the way to China. Money, in the form of drugs murdering Americans and human smuggling and slavery. All Mob expertises!

Xi's CCP is just looking on with amazement/amusement that they do not have to pay anything for the Dem/Marxists to try to destroy their own country.
Do you think Hunter Biden would be above consorting with the cartels to fund his drugs and whores ? If he can grovel to the Ukrainian criminals, I am sure he would have no trouble dealing with the cartels.
Remember too that the Biden’s were making deals with the Chinese. Which ones? Hope Joe has a good retirement with his 10%.
John,
This deportation brouhaha is just a distraction from the eventual unveiling of where the money came, where it went and who it went to. If there were any US Govt funds involved there is now a mechanism which can track the flow. This is what they are really scared about. Expect it to get worse as they close in on the Truth.

Hope you're right.
Thanks,
If I'm wrong than it's worse than I thought. It's a long road between now and then. With many powerful interests involved.
One can only hope for justice.
Agree. I am guessing the Trump admin knows exactly who he is, and went after someone who is probably making bank for the Democrat arm of the elite cabal. And yeah, it's probably trafficking.

Anything that paints Trump in a negative light is never let go.
Trump’s negative light is a 24/7 occupation for the MSM division of the Deep State.
The DS goal is to thwart any and all of his actions as President. Deport all of them.
Yes. He's also pudgier than most of the MS-13 gangsters I've seen, who seem to live on a steady diet of meth and push-ups. He's probably a CIA asset, working for all the Taco Bell he can eat.

Another is to "normalize" illegal immigration. "Nobody's illegal!!!" They're all loving fathers, devoted mothers, and Nobel laureate children. And we NEED them!!
This year it's a "suspected member of MS-13". Next year it will be a known member of the Sinaloa Cartel - "but such a loving father!!" And "He'll have his civil rights violated by the Gulf Cartel if we force him to return home!!"
Whether Kilmar makes his hero's return or not, the Democrats will have increased their infatuation with illegal immigrants and their hatred of Trump. It doesn't matter that the Trump-haters won't remember the events that ratcheted up their hatred. All that matters is that they hate him more than ever.

Yes, most countries grant asylum on that basis.
This I love - Canada is accepting asylum inquiries from our Alphabet People, under the same logic. They are not safe here. Oh my, fearing for their lives!
Nothing like Canada, with their own mental illness, normalizing that of our Alphabet People.
The world has gone mad, Bird, mad I tell you. Except for Saba. The invite still stands for June. C'mon man.
Thinking of Florida in May, even but that's getting kinda close. My scuba gear hasn't seen salt water - or any water - for awhile.
Saba's population is mostly (Dutch) jews and their descendants, FYI.
I am wondering the same.
My guess is, they wouldn't put themselves out for a nobody. This guy is valuable in some way.
Maybe.
And then, we can also see that the Woke Jacobin Marxists do all sorts of stupid things just to get the public riled up.
So, who knows?
Could it be that the Maryland Dems are beholden to MS13 related to voter turnout within the “undocumented” hordes? Is MS13 now an NGO operative for the Dems? Is Kilmar a critical keystone on the Maryland Mob and maybe knows too much to be let loose? Is the Senator possibly setting up a hit? I would not put anything beyond the criminal outreach of the Deep Democrat blue zones.
Good questions! Killmar might be safer at CECOT than back in Maryland. And that's a problem. Did the Senator also meet with the gang-bangers who allegedly hate his mother's papusas? Maybe he just gave them a "signal."
papoose----is how I think it is spelled?
Ron, a papusa is a food item that looks a bit like a papoose.
We should move the capital back to Trenton, NJ. That way, Virginia and Maryland could return to their rightful position as conservative Southern states.
There aren’t enough Odor Eaters in the world for me to put my feet in Blue Shoes! 👠
And imagine being located in Maryland. Hmm. What else is nearby?
Interesting angle!
The police said they were told by the fbi to let him go when he was stopped for suspected human trafficking
Yup, friends in very high places
Listen to X-22 Report 3621b for a full accounting - it's all there.
Michael---thanks for the background. If only we had real journalists in the legacy media today. I am sure that this info will be picked up and discussed in detail on the View.
Most excellent work!
Bravo, Michael!
Deporting 3706 "suspected" gang members and using a rounded off rough estimate of 10,000,000 immigrants under Biden's watch is slightly more than 0.03%. Nothing to get excited or brag about. You claim the issue is due process, where was your commentary on the lack of due process when it came to J6 prisoners who were left to rot in jail waiting for trial dates. I think your truth and point is lost on those who value decency and the responsibility of government to protect it's citizens.
Okay, Cosmo, you need to take a deep breath. We’re not discussing J6 prisoners here and you’re absolutely right about their due process being violated and coercion being applied. I know all about it. I’m not discussing that. I am saying as far as my research goes there is no difference or very little difference between the lack of due process both Biden and Trump were and are applying to suspected gang members but during Biden, they were “statistics” under Trump “ripe for political narratives”. As far as I’m concerned, the only due process necessary is whether or not they are in the country legally. If not, they should be deported. Suspected gang member or not.
Basically, the establishment, legacy media, didn't really do their job when Biden was President. They molded opinion by selectively lying. They pushed a narrative. They even concealed President Biden's mental condition.
Now, the establishment, legacy media IS doing their job--selectively, that is. They are molding opinions by putting the flashlight to the Trump Administration's oversights.
Just because they didn't report on Biden's excesses and infractions of the Constitution does not mean they should not report on Trump's.
~ The Embedded Sociocultural Disconnects & Cognitive Dissonance Paradox ~
The problem is a paradox:
As a historically, fundamentally small-scale, generalist social species in a sufficiently-complex, larger-scale society that depends on hyperspecialization, we need everyone doing their jobs pretty much effectively and conscientiously.
But we are not bees, ants or termites, not as simple and too complex as individuals, so we don't do our jobs like that, like bees, ants or termites. The termite mound is a marvel of communism; the wild cat, a marvel of individualistic anarchy; the human, something in-between, but also currently in social setups that are at once out-of-scale and decoupled from our 'natural wiring' and, as such, fundamentally cognitively dissonant...
They demand intelligence for complexity and hyperspecialization, but that very complexity and hyperspecialization leads to oversimplicity in the hypespecialized spheres, which leads to repetition, stagnation, boredom, corruption and, according to some tentative research, even a loss of intelligence.
Essentially, an overscaled hyperspecialized human society leads to a kind of lobotomy and dislocation/disconnect from nature, its complexities, and how our ancestors lived within it and the contexts of their families, tribes and villages.
When some of us talk about our mad world, it's not far from the truth: The world we've created around us like a prison is out-of-scale and detached from our small-scale tribal wiring.
Could you provide a source/link for "the Biden administration deported 3,706 people labeled as 'suspected or convicted gang members' in 2024"?
I'm scouring the web, but can't find that info. The best I can find is AI's summary that "In 2024, the DHS, through ICE, arrested 1,155 criminal gang members."
Thanks.
Biden deported 270,000 immigrants in 2024, the most in the last ten years, an effort to stem the tide of resentment he’d built with Americans over his first three years in office. 32% of them had criminal records, according to CNN. According to DHS documents and ICE, 3706 people deported in 2024 were either suspected or “convicted” gang members. They don’t go into details on what they were convicted of nor what differentiates them from “suspected.” And from that, I’m extrapolating that must mean whatever due process they received was minimal if any at all. And from that, I’m relating how Garcia was treated, which sounds no different than how he might have been treated under Biden. Furthermore, Biden’s ICE and DHS, didn’t name the gangs or the affiliates, which in some sense, is worse than what Trump has done by putting names and faces on gang members. Some of my research turned up how Biden’s ICE determined one was a gang member and it went as far as social media posts, dress code and third party sources. That too is no differnt than Trump. SO the numbers are really that important. Whether it’s 3706 or 1155, they are being treated more or less the same. The difference is Biden allowed the media to look the other way, Trump is rubbing their face in it.
Nice! Biting satire with an extra helping of caustic sarcasm! Well done!
I was about to post a very similar comment, but yours was that much better - I could not improve upon it!
Thanks. I repurposed that from a comment I made yesterday.
Why mess with perfection!
Agree my fellow Whites!
THERE ARE SOME MEMES ABOUT RUNNING HIM AS PRESIDENT:
MS-13steria: Best Sen. Van Hollen Loves MS-13 Memes (DeMS-13!)
Margaritagate, haters will say these videos are fake, exclusive pic of Dems with a victim of illegal immigrants, more signs aging boomers have to go and more Sen. Van Hollen loves MS-13 memes!

....so Judge “Jeb” has enlisted the Harvard rowing crew to bring Kilmar back home....
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Entirely brilliant, JHK! Thank you.
The Harvard rowing crew may be the last thing that is worthy of the Harvard name. Otherwise, it's a worthless woke school.
Yeah, not so much so, Paul. People with Harvard degrees are still going to get selected before someone with a degree from Utah State University or University of Nevada-Reno. I don't disagree with you on the school but those degrees still carry a lot of weight.
Or maybe the money required to get that degree means that you are blue blood enough to get preferential treatment from the PTB level of the USA? Are we so gullible that we believe these jokers at Harvard are any better than Arizona State or AU? How to keep control of the masses, create Ivy League mystique.
I knew a kid from high school (dumb and black) but good at foosball. He got into Harvard and the first week he was there, he stole a car. They swept it under the rug and nothing happened to him. Later on, he beat his girlfriend, and that went away too.
A few yrs ago I retained the services of my dear friend's son, a Harvard grad atty. What a waste of time and money!
Damn your eyes, racist pig!
His girlfriend was not "beaten"...she was "culturally enriched"....
Money is actually not the big issue. Yes, Harvard is a lot of money, but a lot of people have a lot of money.
It's the candidate's connections and background that differentiate those who get accepted from those who do not.
And if you get accepted and really can't afford it, no worries, the endowment, alumni contributions, and the super-expensive tuition the paying students pay will provide the resources to cover the tab.
I agreed with you!!! It is position, the money is there.
Skin so pale that the blue of the blood in the veins can be seen. But in fact, Whites are the least represented group at Harvard - non-Jewish Whites that is.
It may be less valuable now that everyone knows DEI/affirmative action is their primary modus operandi. So many useless, DEI functionaries have Harvard fake degrees.
Is it a bird? No. Is it a plane? No. Its Super Judge Jeb! Jeb is above all law and above all reproach. Super judge Jeb is our new God. Worship him!!
Judge Jeb is looking toward political office someday and feathering his nest for that.
This one had me laughing from beginning to end. Great stuff. Good humor is desperately needed these days! Thank you.

I kept having to refer back to whose stack I was reading. Though I've never, ever, in my entire life read the NYT, I thought I had somehow stumbled on its current front page story!
Seriously, I laughed my head off reading this parody of a NYT or possibly Atlantic story.
Jimbo's years of experience writing for the NYT paid off!
You're always in the know, aren't you, tom.
Enjoy Good Friday, and a Happy Easter to you, my Sassy Acadian. <3
Thank you Ron! Happy Good Friday and Easter to you too!! I'm feeling particularly sassy today. It must be the warm weather lol. <3
True, Dem party is now a parody of itself. Ridiculous.
Yes, but until America understands how huge their hold on the criminal empire is in the USA, they will just keep coming back to infect us.
The Dems want a way to come back? How about purging out the Mob? Or maybe, the Mob is the Dem Party today?
The line between normality and absurdity has been blurred by today's democratic party to such an extent that these days it is difficult to discern between what is satire and what is real. The ongoing Kilmar Abrego Garcia imbroglio perfectly encapsulates this.
If the democrat party wants to make an MS-13 gang member the poster child for their 2026 and 2028 campaigns, I say let them.
Fantastic satire today, Mr. Kunstler. Thought I was reading an article at the Babylon Bee.
What's going on here is quite simple to understand. To provide "due process" to every illegal immigrant that ICE needs to deport would result in millions upon millions waiting in line for the courts. We have not the legal infrastructure to process this many people. In short, what the Democrats are doing and what "super judge Jeb (whose grandeur and authority surpass that even of God himself) are essentially creating amnesty for tens of millions of illegal immigrants brought here by the evil fucker Joe Biden and his Gollum like demonic troll Alejandro Mayorkas.
Super judge Jeb should be swinging from a lamp post for usurping authority he does not have but instead he'll publish his "memoirs" and retire in style on the beaches of Bora Bora while America burns.
God I love this Country. I love lawyers and judges even more.
The whole thing is absurd. The system can't reform the system. We need a coup. A state of emergency so that things can get done. Do I trust Trump that much? Actually I don't. So there you go.
I've said it before, Lugh, and I'll say it again. Donald Trump cannot do a damned thing without a willing Congress. So, there really isn't any need to trust Trump. Everything that is wrong in American government is because of Congress. The executive is too powerful? Because Congress abandoned its check system of the Executive. Deficit spending is too high? Congress controls the money. Taxes are too high? Congress controls taxation. Inflation too high? Congress controls the money supply and could control the Fed if it wanted to. Everything comes down to Congress. Not Trump. Not Biden. Congress. The United States Congress is an absolutely dismal failure from the top to the bottom. It needs to be destroyed. Removed. Completely re-considered. How representatives are chosen needs to be reformed. No more elections.
I hope that one day I'll see it happen. Maybe a coup will make it happen. Who knows? What I do know is the Congressional system we have today has failed the American people in a colossal and monumental failure and few there be that care. Too busy focusing on Trump or Biden while the US Congress conducts piss poor and totally irrelevant "investigations" that accomplish absolutely nothing good for the American people.
Can anyone name one good thing the US Congress has done for the American people lately? I sure as hell cannot.
Yes, in a National Emergency the Congress would have to be put on hold. School's out forever?
Bravo! Viva la democrats clown show!
Here is my "conspiracy theory," though like many other conspiracy theories put forth by conservatives, I suspect that there is a really good chance that it's true. Here it is:
If one starts to work backwards from Kilmar, the MS-13 gangbanger, and all the Democrat swine rushing to his defense, you then get to all the gangs supported by the Mexican drug cartels. Go back from there, you get the Communist Chinese supplying the cartels with all of nasty stuff to make fentanyl. If you are then wondering why the Democrat swine--from Congressmen to leftist judges--seem to be all in on protecting Kilmar, et al--and making sure that they are staying in the U.S., it just seems very possible that those Democrats are being fed a good load of laundered "dark" money from the ChiComms, via the cartels, washed through a bunch of leftist-controlled NGO's and unexamined federal "Swamp money" pointed the Democrats way. Think of it, the ChiComms weakening U.S. internally via drugs and corruption while making its treasonous Democrat operatives rich along the way. Not to mention that the Soros family is likely also in on the deal.
Then comes Trump, who throws the turd in the punch bowl by declaring that the illegal aliens will be deported, the borders secured against the traffickers, and that DOGE will be sniffing around all that Swamp and NGO money that has been doled out without oversight. It all sparks of a Chinese Communist government working to destroy the U.S. economically (when they're not trying to do it directly with viruses) from within, using an entire American political party--the Democrats--totally infiltrated and compromised by traitors likely on the take from their ChiComm, Mexican cartel , and Soros masters. That sounds like the plot from a really shitty horror movie, but sadly, it may be actually true. Truth is, the U.S. is at war with the ChiComms and the Mexican cartels, along with the treasonous Democrats supporting both--the problem is that, at least so far, it is only they, not law-abiding, working Americans, who are doing all of the killing.
You are over the target 🎯.
Boasberg, lately famous for authorizing illegal surveillance of President Trump. is ignoring the fact that his previous order was tossed out by SCOTUS...George Washington would have had him shot....
Democrats have adopted the view that they don't have to do anything that Trump says because according to them he's an illegitimate president, and therefore they're under no obligation to obey him. This mentality exists from state governors to county clerks.
Cannot help noticing that Harvard self-confidence has not been matched by Harvard performance for quite a while. Admitting some bias, that Harvard verbiage has been replaced by UPenn grads cutting through the fog. Unspoken: the US Constitution is not a suicide pact, and our founders words should not be interpreted to yield absurd results.
It'll be Maga Hats vs. Kilmore Caps.
Van Hollen looks like Kilmar's prison wife. I'm sure they had a little trailer out back for a conjugal visit.
Van Hollen is Dutch for "Old Queen"
Oh my….how hilarious!
In the world of current affairs, as you so sarcastically and aptly put, it’s no longer the American dream which according to the left never existed, but now it’s the American nightmare.
Fight fight fight. Three words coined by Trump but existed way before he was born and was uttered by Americans Patriots throughout our country’s history. We must remember those words, in order for us to save our country.
God bless Trump, his staff and us,the American citizens,
who dearly love what America still stands for. (Hint: it’s not the nightmare!). Remember, WE WILL PREVAIL INDEED!
"It's called the 'American Dream', because you have to be asleep to believe it." - George Carlin
The truly patriotic and sane are still waiting for the meetings between the families of the raped and murdered young women while the Demoncraps pose with their true constituency, illegal invaders. If only we could accept the subjugation and hardship they wish to impose on us for defying their desire for permanent power and grift, then perhaps they would turn away from foreign invaders and actually do something for the country. Alas, even the useful idiot Demoncraps are too far gone to turn back to normalcy and refrain from their corruption and immorality, as their chosen leaders show them how to game the system and grow ever richer on pilfered funds. The Demoncraps are desperately seeking, no demanding, return to power since their ability to steal public funds has placed them in economic jeopardy and poorhouse bound.
