Although the president was caught on mic musing about deporting American citizens.
He didn't get caught doing anything; he said it, openly, during an interview: https://bsky.app/profile/atrupar.com/post/3lmrx6b2gxy2f
Yeah, this is not going to end well for all y'all:

The canaries in our coal mine are permanent residents. Anything that can legally be done to a permanent resident can basically be done to a "bad" citizen. Trump is trying to run roughshod over permanent residents' habeus corpus rights. Courts are currently pushing back; I expect he will defy them. That, for me, will be the line at which I'll start helping with civil disruption.
Not caught, he held a press conference and announced that he was going to try to do it.
Actually I stand corrected--he was ALSO caught on tape with a much more chilling version of this statement.
