09.07.2025 20:27 β π 1 π 0 π¬ 1 π 0As set forth in the attached Report, the Government of El Salvador responded to the UN inquiry opened by the four families asking about the disappearance of their family members: 1 The attached exhibit has redacted personal identifying information for the four men discussed in the WGEID report. Petitioners can file an unredacted version of the exhibit under seal at the Court's request, with the exception of one of the cases for particular privacy reasons related to that individual. 1 Case 1:25-cv-00766-JEB Document 160 Filed 07/07/25 Page 2 of 4 The Salvadoran State emphatically states that its authorities have not arrested, detained, or transferred the persons referred to in the communications of the Working Group. The actions of the State of El Salvador have been limited to the implementation of a bilateral cooperation mechanism with another State, through which it has facilitated the use of the Salvadoran prison infrastructure for the custody of persons detained within the scope of the justice system and law enforcement of that other State. In this context, the jurisdiction and legal responsibility for these persons lie exclusively with the competent foreign authorities, by virtue of international agreements signed and in accordance with the principles of sovereignty and international cooperation in criminal matters. In this regard, the actions attributable to the Salvadoran State are limited to its sovereignty and territorial jurisdiction, and therefore it cannot be held responsible for the failure to observe the principle of non-refoulement with respect to the persons mentioned. Ex. 1 at 6, 9 (emphasis added).
BREAKING: Documents filed in court today assert that officials from El Salvador told the United Nations that it "facilitated the use of the Salvadoran prison infrastructure" by the U.S. but that "the jurisdiction and legal responsibility for these persons lie exclusively with the" U.S.

Tell your Congress critters to stop military aid to Israel until the siege is lifted.
At the Supreme Court, about 1,000 people gathered under the leadership of Rev. William Barber of Repairers of the Breach. People graphically explained why they rely on Medicaid and food stamps. Coffins represented the people who will die because of the cuts.

Only Congress has the power to declare war. Thatβs why I voted yes on tonightβs War Powers Resolution.

Regardless of the ruling, the Constitution is clear. If you were born in the United States you are an American citizen.
Itβs hard to overstate how angry rank and file Dems are at the Dem establishment right now. And if I were a self-preservationist incumbent I would take note.

People arenβt chasing labels. Theyβre chasing change. Real, structural, unapologetic change.
