Btw, look at that SEK to USD FOREX rate
The USD has really dropped like a rock versus our Swedish krona (crown) as of late (started to really fall around the first 2 days of March, but had been dropping before, it was over 11 SEK to 1 USD for some time)
The Swedish krona has been one of the strongest currencies in the OECD basket lately

(17,383 posts)One of these Venezuelan men in the El Salvador prison is Neri Alvarado Borges, who would still be working at a bakery in Dallas, and wouldnt be stuck in an El Salvador prison, if he didnt have tattoos.
This is the him working in the bakery, and the largest of his tattoos was this one, which stands for supporting autism:

This is him with his younger brother, who has autism.

Mother Jones wrote about his sudden arrest, and here is the reason given by the ICE agents why Neri isnt in the US anymore:
Well, youre here because of your tattoos, the ICE agent reportedly said. Were finding and questioning everyone who has tattoos.

Ms. Toad
(38,092 posts)Did she issue the order not to turn around?
Was she ordered not to visit El Salvador?
Judicial orders are very specific. The article does not even mention the judicial order, and she did not do anything that I am aware of that violates the order.
As a general rule, judges can't order individuals not to run their mouths - that pesky little thing called the first amendment.
SSJVegeta
(2,240 posts)When her agency was specifically ordered to turn the plane around, and she stated to some extent "my agency will not do that," it is defying a federal order.
First amendment right doesn't actually apply to the government outside of preventing it from stopping individuals from speaking -which is what this action, and the recent kidnappings of individuals appears aimed to do.
And for individuals like Noem, in judicial cases, your words can absolutely be used against you, something called "Intent" to commit a crime. Contempt of court is a crime. She openly stated she will ignore a judge's orders and was doing so in her power. That's generally a common sense conclusion.
STOP PEDDLING RIGHT WING TALKING POINTS
Ms. Toad
(38,092 posts)I am an attorney, and not only am I an attorney I taught law for nearly 10 years.. Mere talk, such as she was doing in the advertisement, is not actively defying a judge's order. Individuals do not lose their right to speak solely because they are members of the government.
I can't find any report that Noem was even made aware of the decision to allow the planes to continue, let alone that she ordered them to continue. None of the reports I have seen mention her involvement in that decision. Stating, "to some effect that 'my agency will not do that'" is not the same as acting in violation of an order - absent her knowing participation in authorizing the flights to continue. The judge hasn't even determined, last time I checked, that the attorneys involved even conveyed the judge's order to anyone in the administration with the authority to stop the planes. If the DOJ did not relay the judge's decision to the administration, it is the attorneys who are likely to be in contempt.
Contempt of court is not generally a criminal matter. It is ordinarily a civil matter. Even if it was criminal contempt in this case, mere intent alone is not a crime - and chatter about intending to defy an order is not the same as actually defying it until that chatter is acted on. Whether it can be used as evidence is a different question - but there isn't a single crime which consists solely of intent. All require both a mental state and actions.
Common sense and the law do not always reach the same conclusions
