Summary

Donald Trump threatened to send American citizens convicted of vandalizing Tesla vehicles to El Salvador’s infamous Terrorism Confinement Center, labeling the vandals as “sick terrorist thugs” deserving 20-year sentences.

This statement followed a major vandalism incident in Ontario, Canada, where around 80 Tesla cars were damaged.

Trump’s comments coincide with controversy over his use of the 1798 Alien Enemies Act to deport migrants, halted by a court order.

The White House defended the deportation despite legal challenges, denying any violation of the court’s injunction.

    Dude, these people are being disappeared. That means they’re gone. Good luck ever seeing them again. Even as a white guy, you would suffer untold horrors we can’t comprehend.

    Anecdotally, I was a wild youngin decades ago and went to county jail for two weeks. Even jail was horrible, and they treat you like you’re subhuman. It’s freezing all the time, the showers are kept purposely boiling hot, and the food is inedible as it’s pure sugar garbage. The loser guards finally have a leg up on other people and make sure they get their payback for their shitty lives. You poop and pee in public. As a woman, they literally limited the pads you could use, so I just bled through.

    Now imagine you remove all those luxuries I just complained about, and you’ve got this type of prison.
