      Sure. But it’s fucking weird right. ?

      Like we know where this guy sleeps. We know where he sits all day. We know what clothes he wears.

      And then show him in regular clothes being given a cocktail. Why the hat? Hiding bruises or something?

      It’s just crazy shit.

      There are only 3 photos. Guy never looks at camera directly for any of them.

      No video.

      Idk. That’s weird too.

      I’m going to stick with my suspicion that the guy may not be alive until I see some better evidence.

      Booker is planning on going down there too.

      Let’s see how that goes.

      In these trying times when everything is crazy, I can’t take anything at face value. You feel me?

        I thought the same thing when I saw the photos. Let’s wait and see what the senator has to say once he’s back in the US. Hopefully this isn’t the end of it.

      Honestly for what? The widely known and recognized notoriously unsafe and unjust prison dresses people nicely?

      Where do you cash that in?

        this is for maga and the maga-adjacent. anything to shift focus from the truth of him being illegally shipped to a gulag. “oh, look! its a vacation”. anything to distract. fox news is going to be cashing in on this all day long on perma-repeat, just like calling him a “terrorist”.

        maga folks are likely lost and unreachable in their hate-additiction. just keep reminding every non-maga person you know that this is a scripted trump show and the only reality is that a man was illegally ripped from his family, illegally removed from the country with zero due process and illegally sent to rot in a paid torture chamber, probably permanently. the courts all agree it was illegal and it will be illegal if/when trump continues to refuse lawful court orders.

          The craziest shit is that Trump himself has admitted it, and they still refuse to believe it. I don’t think anyone could ever explain to me how that even works.

          I legitimately pray for a meteor to crash into this planet on a daily basis. I’m fucking done.

            there is a deep schism in this country and I barely understand approximately 20% of us. the attempt to dominate by tearing down the other, the desire to craft a zero sum game where there should be bounty for all. the adoration of cruelty and greed in those they empower to hurt others.

            and then I see comments here, indeed many, that give me pause on my own downward spiral. people like you who are so obviously not… them. I dont know you, but I know that you and I are likely not enemies. you and I would likely bump shoulders, literally and metaphorically, holding the line against these people. and I have reason to not give up yet. neither of us are alone.
