11:39Now PlayingKristi Noem loves to scream “law and order” – but under Donald Trump, she is literally ignoring a federal judge’s order and disappearing migrants into a foreign mega-prison.
In this video, we break down how “ICE Barbie” helped run Trump’s hardline deportation machine, defied U.S. District Judge James Boasberg’s clear order NOT to deport a group of Venezuelan men, and instead put them on planes and shipped them to Nayib Bukele’s dystopian mega‑prison in El Salvador – a facility documented for torture, beatings, and mass human rights abuses.
This isn’t a paperwork error. This is Trump‑era authoritarianism in action:
• A judge says “Do NOT deport them. They stay in U.S. custody.”
• Trump’s people put them on planes anyway.
• Then the Trump DOJ tries a galaxy‑brain argument that the judge’s order somehow stops applying once the planes leave U.S. airspace.
That’s not “law and order.” That’s open lawlessness, with a thin legal excuse slapped on after the fact.
I walk through what happened, why these migrants were supposed to be protected under the court’s order, how they ended up in Bukele’s CECOT mega‑prison, and how this fits a broader Trump pattern: treat the courts like suggestions, especially when cruelty at the border is the goal.
If the rule of law doesn’t apply when it’s inconvenient for people like Kristi Noem and Donald Trump, then it’s not rule of law – it’s theater.
In this video:
• The federal judge’s explicit “do NOT deport” order
• How Kristi Noem’s team, under Trump, deported them anyway
• The transfer to Bukele’s mega‑prison in El Salvador
• Trump DOJ’s absurd “the order doesn’t apply once they’re in the air” defense
• What this means for the rule of law and creeping authoritarianism
• How Trumpism weaponizes “law and order” against the powerless, not the powerful
