Unseen, Deporting Citizens to a place where they couldn’t exercise right to counsel or due process would be Unconstitutional. But not non-Citizens.

And if the 1952 law giving the Secretary of State power to deport for foreign policy reasons is Uncontitutional, wasn’t it so under every subsequent President including Oba…

Trump only conforms with law when he has no choice. Now, he’s the President.

I might also add to this that non-Citizens don’t have a right to hold public office, even Citizens are generally required to live in the jurisdiction where they hold public office, and only a Natural-Born U.S. Citizen can be President of the U.S.

Which non-citizen is running for public office? (strawman?).

As for M…

If the person is here illegally, the outcome of the ruling might not be to the person’s liking.

Duh. Trump is deporting people without actual judicial rulings.

The Neisei put into detention camps by FDR were natural-born U.S. Citizens, not immigrants.

As are some of the deportees.

And none of the Neisei were even a…

The key phrase in the Due Process Clause of the 14th Amendment is:

“…nor shall any State deprive any person of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law…”

Notice it says “any person,” not “any citizen.” That choice of language was intentional, and the U.S. Supreme Court has consistently interpreted it to mean that non…[Read more]

Tesla sales have plummeted by over 70% in countries like Germany and Spain. Some Tesla owners have resorted to placing stickers on their vehicles to distance themselves from Musk’s politics, with messages like “I bought this before Elon went crazy.” ​ His alignment with right-wing politics, including his role in Donald Trump’s administration, h…[Read more]

I don’t even think the cybertruck is legal in Europe/UK. If that stupid thing runs into you, you are screwed.

Kilmar Abrego Garcia should be freed immediately. Whether or not is is a gang member is irrelevant. He is entitled to “due process”. If not, any citizen can be disappeared in the middle of the night…or at any time of the day. Everyone in the U.S., including those without legal status, have constitutional rights to due process under the Fifth and…[Read more]

Yeah, we are in Gestapo-type territory already. They are shot-gunning the deportation process.

Also, all the deregulations will have some not-so-good consequences. Let’s see what halting food testing and inspection does to our food exports, not to mention our health. Oh, and I read they are not pursuing cyber-crimes. Digital “assets” are already…[Read more]

U.S.-born man held for ICE under Florida’s new anti-immigration law.

You can stop worrying if you might be a redneck (Jeff Foxworthy reference for anyone who’s scratching their head) and start worrying about whether you might be a traitor who hates America and deserves to be sitting in an El Salvadoran prison:
