The Trump administration deported a 31-year-old Salvadoran man minutes after a federal appeals court barred his removal while his case proceeded, the government admitted in a court filing this week.
In its filing, the government denied that it had violated the order from the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit, in New York, instead blaming “a confluence of administrative errors.”
The government had previously given the court what the judges called “express assurance” that…

The New York Times reports that President Trump has enlisted the firm Palantir, founded by far-right billionaire Peter Thiel,

instructing government agencies to share data with each other.
The order has increased fears that the government is putting together a database to wield surveillance powers over the American public.

We can say this at least:
Musk is one of the most malignant people ever to hold a position of influence in American politics.
His actions, without exaggeration, have devastated the health and security of American society
and directly caused the deaths of tens of thousands of people all over the world, with millions more to follow given the course that he has set.
Musk’s DOGE, which is more or less a conspiracy to destroy constitutional government in this country, has …
