Kilmar Abrego Garcia said he suffered severe beatings, severe sleep deprivation and psychological torture in the notorious El Salvador prison the Trump administration had deported him to in March, according to court documents filed Wednesday.
He said he was kicked and hit so often after arrival that by the following day, he had visible bruises and lumps all over his body. He said he and 20 others were forced to kneel all night long and guards hit anyone who fell.
So many people will hopefully sue and get settlements down the line, i just wish the global community could punish the US for all this bullshit
If a Presidential candidate ran on the platform of “we’re going to join the Hauge, and give up our veto power at the UN” I would vote for them.
Eh… We just need to get rid of veto powers and have an actual enforcement arm.
Right? The Federation is a long shot but we’re not even getting the backstory from The Expanse at this point
Speedrun to getting assassinated by the CIA
Can’t sue. They were “official acts”. So, everyone in the federal government who is a Reich Winger has qualified immunity for anything they do.
The official acts ruling refers only to criminal charges, not civil suits. (afaik, idoanal, etc)
😂
Qualified immunity applies to civil suits as well. Which is why we cannot sue cops.
You don’t have to be on the Left to not be on the Reich
I feel like a lot of people miss this point
I feel like anyone working in concert with a fascist state is a part of the fascist state. I feel like a lot of people miss this point.
The supreme court’s ruling about official acts only applies to the president. (The president does have pardon powers for others, but pardon powers aren’t new.)
So, we all know that the entire administration can get away with whatever they like, and only Donald as the arbitrator of what is legal then, right?
They can point to their made-up laws and/or their made-up following of the laws and say that they can get away with whatever they like, but that doesn’t mean we have to let them.
Nuremberg
First has to be a WWIII…
This problem was made by the US for the US. World cannot save US from themselves. Just as US does not have any jurisdiction over El Salvador. They are just exploiting it for personal psychopathy. Which is a step beyond even Hitler.
