I sort of liked it before when the democrats simply said stuff like Kilmar "must be turned to the US." Now they're going to milk this situation all the way up to election day. And they won't even manage to confirm for themselves that he's alive.

They're never going to confirm whether he's still alive because that would require having a backbone to out your opposition's wrongdoing.

Still going to milk this for all it's worth.

Congress is on a ~16 day break right now. I know it's purely theoretical but all the other dem senators could have gone with him.

in their "defense", they are completely powerless to get any info on him.

all they can do is keeping the performance going, showing they are attempting something, and at least keep Abrego Garcia's name in the news cycles for as long as possible.

However, why aren't they doing impeached and removals proceedings to get rid of that orange cancer?
