The US is paying El Salvador money to hold these people. Acting like there is nothing either can do is about as boldface a lie as there is. They can literally do anything they want and have control of both sides of any contracts.
This is them saying “what are you going to do about it?” And what should happen is people need to keep the pressure on so Congress sides with the courts asap (and this guys’ Senator is flying there next week to see him personally).
People have? The doge team have us Marshalls that let them in and push the staffers out of the way. It’s happened at the IRS, USAID, and others.
Here’s an agency which doge had no right to close still getting pushed out after blockading the office.

That’s an American not being recused by America. He’s had no due process. And unlike hostages held by the worst terrorists or oppressive regimes anywhere else in the world, they won’t even fight to get him back.
Where is his suit? Does he not respect the office? /s
Sounds like he wants to buy them brown uniforms to go with their new wages.
Natalia Goncharova The Forest 1913
Oil on canvas. 130 x 97 cm
Museo Nacional Thyssen-Bornemisza, Madrid
In 1913, the year the present “Rayonist landscape” entitled The Forest is dated, Natalia Goncharova and Mikhail Larionov signed the Rayonist Manifesto.
This Russian avant-garde movement was defined by Camilla Gray as the style which “encompasses all existing styles and forms of the art of the past, as they, like life, are simply points of departure for a Rayonist perception and construction of a picture.”
According to this new aesthetic idea which, as the American historian specifies, departed from the concept of perception, both artists showed an interest in the nature of vision and began studying light as the indispensable source of our sensory appreciation of the world. Given that, in order for any object to be seen it must be illuminated, the Rayonists represented in painting the whole sequence of rays that allows us to see a particular scene. “We do not sense the object with our eye, as it is depicted conventionally in pictures and as a result of following this or that device, ” they stated in the Rayonist manifesto. “In fact, we do not sense the object as such. We perceive a sum of rays proceeding from a source of light; these are reflected from the object and enter our field of vision.”
The Forest, also entitled Rayonist Landscape or Rayonist Perception, which was shown both in Mishen (Target), the exhibition organized by Larionov in Moscow in 1913 marking the new movement’s introduction to society, and in the solo exhibition of the painter’s work organised by the gallery owner K.I. Mikhailova at his Art Salon in Moscow that year, is an illustrative example of Goncharova’s interpretation of Rayonism.

Do you know what was going on in the first half of the 1940s??

From the signing of the kids lunch bill. I just feel like even the laziest version of this is pretty fun.
Remember when open ai was a nonprofit first and foremost, and we were supposed to trust they would make AI for good and not evil? Feels like it was only Thanksgiving…
Remember the last acting agent before this guy (sp four days ago) was Melanie Krause.
She stepped down rather than allow Americans private IRS filing data to be given to ICE. Scott bessett and Kristi noem signed that agreement without her knowing. She found out because it was on Fox News that the data had been given over. Again not clear that it was at all legal to do so.
Three days with this mini-mooch interim guy had at least one goal: (1) make the IRS remove Harvard’s statuses. He did that on day 1 of 3.
But possibly (2) could be just long enough to have approved other stuff that the serious acting admins wouldn’t do. Such as: additional data exfiltration by doge, more layoffs, or other sweeping decisions for political purposes…
