Your ability and drive to inform us as well as setting up all of these interviews is amazing! Thank you for all you do!

Aaron, great job snagging an interview with Sen. Van Holland! Mr. Abrego Garcia is now a major key point in our country's history. The results of how this all plays out will have so many lasting repercussions for him personally (obviously) and the country at large. Tides are shifting constantly--we need to keep making sure it's shifting solidly to the correct and humane side of history!

This is soooo sickening. WE MUST BOYCOTT ALL BUSINESSES THAT HAVE SUPPORTED TRUMP OR ANY PERSON IN ELECTED OFFICE WHO SUPPORTS THIS DICTATOR.

Walmart - stop shopping there until they speak out and show support for this cast injustice. THEY HELPED SUPPORT TRUMP. WHO ELSE?

Fran Phillips's avatar

I've boycotted Walmart since I found out something like 40 years ago that they randomly took out life insurance policies of their employees and if the employee died, they kept the money instead of giving it to the family. Who does that? Also, they are big donators to the Republican party, just as many of the fast food chains are: Chick Filet, McDonalds, Wendy's, Burger King, etc. I boycott them all.

Did he say anything about the hair dresser and the pro soccer player. We need to talk about all of them.

Aaron, thank you for all your efforts in bringing us these informative interviews and information in real time!

I really hope we [Americans] are able to send the appropriate message to the El Salvadorian government about their willing complicity in violating our constitutional rights!

Can someone tell us what’s happening to the women and children?

Aaron Parnas's avatar

Women and children are not being deported to El Salvador under the Alien Enemies Act. The order is specific to Venezuelan men over the age of 14.

Women and children are being deported *generally* but not under the AEA

Katie Sage's avatar

Thank you for responding! Are these women and children who are being “deported” being sent back to their home country or to camps somewhere?

Aaron Parnas's avatar

Back to their home country.

They are being held in Costa Rico in some facility but no info really on their well being.

That is a very important question … both regards current reality and future situations.

This is so fucking traumatic for everyone involved. It’s traumatic watching this stuff. I am making it my personal mission to raise awareness about suicide prevention. If you have Instagram, check out my page on how you can help @_help.imalive_ share content on 988, the suicide/ crisis hotline. Just started April 5th and have 200 followers. Let me know any ideas on substack or Instagram. I need all the help I can get and all you have to do is incorporate 988 into your posts on social media or in the comments section. Only 25% of America can recognize 988 as a resource. Come help me save lives!

It’s all about consolidating power and greed. More hate and evil.

Well done, Aaron. Thank you.

The GOP tried to paint Van Hollen as soft on gangs—because he defended due process.

But guess who agreed with him? Trump’s own Supreme Court picks.

So if defending legal rights means you’re “pro-MS-13,”

then Brett Kavanaugh and Neil Gorsuch must be honorary gang members too.

The irony?

The rule of law still matters—enough that even Trump’s justices upheld it.

And that blows the whole smear campaign to pieces.
