Kristi Noem Defies 9–0 Supreme Court Ruling in Explosive Senate Hearing
In a heated exchange, Senator Chris Van Hollen confronts DHS Secretary Kristi Noem over her department’s blatant refusal to comply with a unanimous Supreme Court decision regarding Kilmar Abrego Garcia — a legal worker deported in violation of his constitutional due process rights.
Van Hollen demands answers as Noem dodges direct questions, falsely accuses Garcia of terrorism, and admits the U.S. is funding foreign detention centers in El Salvador to hold deportees — even those the courts say were removed unlawfully.
📌 Key Highlights:
Noem accused of defying Supreme Court order
DHS deported legal immigrant with work permit
No evidence of terrorism presented in court
U.S. tax dollars funding foreign detentions
DHS using expedited removal to bypass due process
Senator Van Hollen calls out authoritarian overreach
This is more than a policy failure — it’s a direct threat to constitutional law and the integrity of our justice system.
⚖️ If you believe in due process, judicial authority, and protecting democracy from authoritarian abuse, this moment matters.

A young voter in Texas courageously asked Senator Bernie Sanders a critical question:
“How do we stop Donald Trump from turning America into an autocracy?”
This isn’t political theater—it’s a real fear shared by millions of Americans. With rising attacks on the rule of law, threats to the separation of powers, and elected officials too afraid to speak out, democracy itself is on the line.
In this powerful town hall moment, Bernie Sanders outlines the real threat of authoritarianism under Trump and what everyday people can do to fight back. From political pressure and grassroots organizing to rejecting billionaire influence in elections—Sanders calls for nationwide mobilization to protect democratic values before it's too late. - 07/11/2025.

We're not even six months into Trump's second term, and we're already seeing some major cracks in his MAGA base on issues like foreign wars and possible amnesty. The biggest example yet: FBI deputy director Dan Bongino is considering leaving his post after a heated confrontation with Pam Bondi over the so-called "Epstein files." Fmr. Senator Doug Jones, Ali Vitali, and Mike Murphy join Stephanie Ruhle for The 11th Hour Nightcap. - Aired on 07/11/2025.
