If you ever doubt how magical this world is, one day you will decide to go to a World Cup watch party in Oakland that you found online to root for a country where you spent two years trying to coax English out of the mouths of Cape Verdean teenagers. 1/7

That's so weird because you think you can't ask El Salvador to return the man wrongly deported from Maryland when just last month you asked Romania to release a convicted rapist and sex trafficker. Or did you forget already?

Replying to @Mikel_Jollett
Are you proposing that we invade El Salvador to retrieve a gang member with no legal right to be in our country? Where in the Supreme Court’s decision does it require us to do that?

We need to bring back public shame for lying. The court document *explicitly* says he is protected from deportation. He was *not* convicted of being a gang member. Vance, Trump, Elon and their cronies lie without any shame. It's a sign of deep moral rot.

My comment is that according to the court document you apparently didn’t read he was a convicted MS-13 gang member with no legal right to be here. My further comment is that it’s gross to get fired up about gang members getting deported while ignoring citizens they victimize.

You are telling me this man is Tren De Aragua? He was so dangerous we had to send him to a foreign prison camp to be beaten with no due process? Do you have any soul left @marcorubio?

Here it is: My conversation with Vikings GM Kwesi Adofo-Mensah focusing on the process of analyzing JJ McCarthy + how KOC and KAM play off each other to solve problems. Appreciate him taking the time to chat! Youtube: youtube.com/watch?v=F_yZ_lsB… iTunes: podcasts.apple.com/us/podcas…
