The people that can afford these places deserve to lose money to arbitrage anyway, it's not a priority for any legitimate government.

4100+ is a good start, they voted for it after all. With any luck automation will follow.

Abrego Garcia was a permanent resident though, so it becomes more confusing.

I wonder if they know what the hell they're doing. Or maybe they don't care or keep track, it's just "how much can we get away with this time".

This week will be telling, unless dates get pushed back again in both cases. I guess we see if rule of law is just openly gone now, without even the usual pretenses.

People do all kinds of strange things on the internet.

Hundreds of people have already died in CECOT. I wouldn't be surprised if they put out a hit on him via back channels to gang members in the prison. Hell, they can legally do it now as an official act.

Would it help if you told them you think Zuck is creepy? People often have a vague creeped out feeling about Facebook, Meta, and tracking. "I was messaging about (insert) here and started seeing ads for it on all my devices" might sell it and get them on your side.

Beyond that it's the pain point of them installing another app to communicate with likely only you, so leaning on things they already have might work. SMS/MMS may be a viable alternative, or maybe Delta Chat if they'd be willing to share an email address.

It's hard to deal with the saturation levels the big chat apps have so I wouldn't rule out having to keep WhatsApp, unfortunately.

Blame Democrats probably.

Big Pharma lobbies too hard for that to happen, it'll be ok. I hope medication will help your situation.
