Jessica Tarlov: “President Bukele is lying when he says he can't get him back. We know he can return people because he returned people from the original shipment. There were women that were sent there and he said, ‘you shouldn't be here.’”

Trump obviously told him not to send him back. Trump needs to start getting questioned about how the supposed "most powerful man in the world" can't force the leader of a small insignificant country to return him

The Side-by-Side Truth: Karoline Leavitt accuses innocent immigrants sent to El Salvador of being criminals, rapists, and convicted felons. Trump is a criminal—he was given full due process. Trump was convicted and found liable for rape and sexual abuse. Trump is a 34-count convicted felon.

One thing: Trump was not convicted of rape. Rape is a commonly-used for sexual assault, but in some states, rape is actually used in their criminal laws. He was found to be liable for sexual abuse in a civil court. Sexual abuse is similar to rape, but different. 1/2

First, the burden of proof is very different. In a criminal case, the burden is beyond a reasonable doubt. In a civil case, it's by a preponderance of the evidence, which simply means it's more likely than not to have happened. Next, the penalties are different. 2/

In a criminal case, a conviction could mean jail time, loss of civil rights (2A for a felony, and in some places, the ability to vote), and monetary for the victim. In a civil case, the penalties are only monetary.

Again, it was a judge in a civil matter. The judge saying it was "substantially true" only meets the burden required in a civil case. The case couldn't be considered for a criminal prosecution because the SOL had passed. The whole question of what it actually was or wasn't will always be a question

#47’s entire first months have been ridiculous but more than that damaging and deranged. Instead of commenting on each illegal, unprecedented act that undermine and threaten our country surely he’s done enough to disrupt and defy the constitution to hold him accountable. He’s brazen and corrupt.

All TCF34 has to say is I'm going to stop paying for him and they'll send him back ( assuming he is still alive and doesn't have horror stories to tell)

trump is a weak, weak man, the potus of the most powerful nation on earth, who can't even get the president of the little and economically weak country of El Salvador to do what he wants him to do. That should be the message bc trump IS a weak little man with a fragile ego.

The first time I listened to Raging Moderates, I was subjected to Kellyanne Conway spewing her vile spin. I was confused why a PR propagandist should be someone I need to listen to when there's so many out there already.....

All of this is playing fast and loose with the truth to make it fit a narrative. You can’t be for the law and not follow it at the same time.

How is that garbage put on the air? It's nothing but propaganda. The thing has a pretty face but a potty mouth. This is just another piece of Murdoch trash unfit for rebroadcast. It's needs a falsification warning to not be redesseminated in any medium, print, or broadcast.

If he was an alleged criminal then you charge him and try him. When is Trump going to pay for all his crimes? When are the Courts going to collect the money of his thievery? When is he going to be held accountable for his continous violations of the Constitution? He spent his way out of jail!

#ICE isn't "deporting" immigrants, it is kidnapping them. #DOGE isn't "fixing" the government, it is dismantling it. #Trump isn't "helping" Americans, he is retaliating against them. Pam Bondi isn't "upholding" the Constitution, she is ignoring it. #FuckTrump #Resist #Felon47

NO administration in American history, NOT Jackson w/ Indian removal, NOT Lincoln in Merryman, NOT FDR over the New Deal, NOT Truman in Youngstown, NOT Nixon over the tapes,NOT Bush with Guantanamo, has openly defied a court order like this, much less one unanimously endorsed by the Supreme Court

Is she only there to keep Fox News from being held liable in court for lies again? As in, since she's telling the truth it's A-OK for them all to gang up on her and tell as many ridiculous lies as they'd like and the network can just point to her as their "fair and balanced" beard?

He can always use the Tariff to threaten and return. The crew surrounded by Trump are White Nationalists. They are pushing this agenda. Now if the Left still purses typical mellow democratic strategy, this country is gone.

Left should retaliate like Mao and scare the crap of right wing to bring back them to center. Newton’s third law folks. Respond far right with far left strategies

I don't know how she does it frankly. I saw one clip where she was correctly reporting on something and they were literally laughing at her while she was doing it. Just once, I would like someone to just go, 'what the actual FUCK are you laughing at?' Idiots are going unchallenged.

But see how we have to de-pretzel the constant stream of lies? So while we are arguing about whether or not a dictator can dictate, we are not demanding that they return the guy or show that he is alive.

That whole show is predicated on making people feel like they have friends on tv who will give them talking points to use w/ other people in their lives. While Jessica is great, she provides the much needed counterpoint to all of the responses. “How can you rebut her point here?” -We’ll show you.
