>Last year, the Trump administration was considering suspending the constitutional right of habeas corpus, The New York Times reports.

>Some officials pushing President Trump’s mass deportation agenda, chiefly White House deputy chief of staff Stephen Miller, wanted to get rid of the key right, which compels the government to explain in court why it has detained a person. Miller’s goal was to prevent immigrants in government custody from receiving hearings or court orders blocking their deportation.

>This idea alarmed others in the Trump administration, who saw it as legally weak and likely to be overturned in court. Among them was Will Scharf, a right-wing lawyer serving as White House staff secretary, who was the last person who saw paperwork before it reached the president’s desk.

>In April, Scharf wrote a secret memo to White House chief of staff Susie Wiles warning of the dangers of suspending habeas corpus, pointing out its legal pitfalls. He also wrote another memo to Wiles warning against invoking the Insurrection Act, another legally questionable idea pushed by some in the administration, including Miller.

>In October, Scharf wrote a memo against invoking the act, saying that it “serves as a break-the-glass exception to the traditional, general prohibition on the use of the military in the domestic setting.” He pointed out that it was last used in 1992 during riots in Los Angeles at the request of the California governor, and its invocation would be unprecedented to use against immigration protesters.

>After Alex Pretti was killed by federal agents in Minnesota in January, administration officials, led by Vice President JD Vance and Miller, revived the idea of using the Insurrection Act. Ultimately, it wasn’t invoked, and the government also did not suspend habeas corpus.

>But the Trump administration has still continued to use authoritarian means to implement the president’s mass deportations, treating immigrants who have been in the country for decades as if they have just shown up at a U.S. border. The fact that Trump has not resorted to extreme legal arguments is only a minor victory as violent deportations and draconian immigration policies continue, as he considers federal courts inconvenient obstacles rather than a constitutionally mandated check on his power.

>the Trump administration was considering suspending the constitutional right of habeas corpus
Part of me wants him to do this just so his approval ratings will fall to 0% within a few weeks, along with the ratings of his apologists and defenders.

I’m waiting for Trump to do something so off the wall the insane asylum ambulances have to haul him away…

>>1519660
>For non-citizens
Oh well. Maybe they should go home instead of putting up with all these human rights violations in the US.
Seems like the smart thing to do.

>>1519705
>>For non-citizens
That word doesn't appear anywhere in the article. They didn't say it would only be for them.

>>1519708
>They didn't say it would only be for them.
It wouldn't be, because Habeus Corpus in this case would be confirming that they were an immigrant before deporting them

But its not really a surprise that the retarded esl shill would be for deporting US citizens.

>>1519709
>Deporting US Citizens
As far as I know, nobody of WASP stock has been deported from the nation. There are no brown, Catholic or Mexican US citizens, no matter what their paperwork says.

esl shill sure loves larping as a white american

>>1519703
The only way that will happen is if he grows a conscience and starts admitting to stuff that will take down everyone around him. Only then will they call him crazy and have him hauled away from any device capable of broadcasting speech.

>>1519711
>larping as a white american
You think they're presenting as white?
As braindamaged as ESL shill is, I never got the impression they ever thought they were white

It's about imminigrants you dirty oinker.

That also doesn't say it would only be for non-citizens. Do you not know what these words mean?

Interesting (expected).
Why do homos have such a hardon for illegals?

>>1519668

He'd still have about a 20% approval rating, easily. Proly around 27% to 30%. Everyone forgets that the loyalists don't care, a lot of people don't understand nor are willing to learn how the US government actually works, a lot of people don't understand nor care to learn how the global economy works, and a lot of people champion individual freedom without responsibility nor understand those concepts. Country's fucked

Liggy ziggies play guitar with the spiders form mars!

My throat feels empty. I wish bb and orange daddy could spitroast me.

Wait a minute.... DAMN YOU JOE BIDEN!

Democrats really keep jerking themselves off to their fascist Trump fantasy.

>>1519782
Yeah, fucking dumocrap kiggy tiggies! Fuck daddy trump isn't a facist just 'cause he threatened broadcast licenses and publicly called for the death of democratic congressman! Are you as hard as I am thinking about how strong and manly he is? We need to show those stupid higgeral diggerals up, get in the circle and start talking about biden! Last one to nut gets -uh, I mean HAS to eat the toast!

work 8 hours a day, and spend another two to three hours commuting to work, then come home and do housework or other chores.

they don't have the time like us news junkies , who are unemployed, retired, partially employed, or work from home, to see what's going on a politics.

You didn't seem to be worried about the rise of fascism under the last president
Government decided who was essential and allowed to work, and who was non-essential and forbidden from working
Government decided how many feet you were allowed to stand or sit apart from your coworkers or strangers.
Government could decide to ban the sale of products arbitrarily like seeds.

Didn't read the rest, we still hate Trump and his fascist bullshit during his first term

Just rope yourself and let real Americans save America

>>1519802
Yeah! JOE BIDEN!

The government consulted Healthcare professionals and set guidelines to keep people from getting sick! That's fucking fascism! The government doesn't already set regulations on all sorts of things, because that'd be fascism you stupid left wing giggy yiggy!

Why? Because JOE BIDEN!

YOU LIGGERAL RIGGERAL FAGS ONLY CARE THAT TRUMP IS A PEDOPHILE CONMAN DELIBERATELY PUMPING AND DUMPING THE ECONOMY BECAUSE JOE MOTHER-FUCKING BIDEN.

Why are my thoughts constantly full of sweaty homoeroticism and transsexual fantasies? Clearly it's because of Joe FUCKING biden.

Democrats all deserve to die for trying to keep people 'safe.' Don't those retards know vaccines can only give you covid if you believe in it? It's a free fuckin country, if Jesus wants to kill a few million of his followers to breed a superbug, who the fuck are we to stand in the way of the will of the lord?

>>1519806
>Consulted healthcare professionals
>Literally just Pfizer

Trump could be on video murdering then raping then eating a 13 year old girl and he’ll still have 20% approval

>>1519802

There is nothing inherently wrong with or fascist about the government setting rules you absolute fuckwit. This is neither fascism nor religious persecution. These people were not prevented from practicing their religion, they were prevented from doing it in a way that created a large, unnecessary risk for their entire community, including those not in attendance. Radios work past the parking lot, stay home you dumb fucks.

The pants shitter in chief called for the death of lawmakers and is using the legal system to control the media and silence his critics. That is fascism. A government passing laws and setting guidelines isn't.

>>1519809
No no no, stupid liggy tranny dumbass, you just don't get it
Not letting people buy seeds and go to church is facism, full stop

What is suspending Habius Coitus mean anyway? Its not a real right and its not in the consitution
Biden < Trump any day of the weak

>>1519807
Yeah! You tell that higgy siggy! The CDC guidelines? We didn't follow that shit, there's no fucking medical professionals there! And then, when they changed them, hoping if they relaxed them we'd follow some of them, we didn't follow that shit again! My grandma dying really showed those giggeral faggots! Rest in peace memaw! I can only wear a mask if it gets me a shot at beatin' on a wetback.

>>1519808
Listen here you left-wing psycho, the girls trump rapes are fifteen. FIFTEEN! He's not a pedophile technically, pedos fuck babies, OUR PRESIDENT ONLY FUCKS TEENAGERS YOU FUCKING TROGLODYTE!

Don't tell the Democrats that you can't actually suspend the constitution. I know they hate it, but you can't just decide not to follow it

it's always funny when esl shill larps as a constitutional scholar

>>1519818

Yeah! Don't tell those Demoncats that when UNCLE clarance TOMas generously accepted enough bribes to embolden the courts to place the sitting president above the law, suspending the constitution, we didn't suspend the constitution, because you can't actually suspend the constitution.

I mean for fuck's sake, while you're at it, why don't you remind them about all of the people who have been seized by ICE who are unaccounted for, which are also 'suspensions' of habeas corpus. Or "Violations" I guess you could call them, but I don't like that word, it make's my butthole tingle and my mind wonder to thoughts of trump's semi-turgid conservative pacifier.

I mean with both of those things happening, only a fucking figgeral yiggeral would think trump expressly stating his intention to attack habeas corpus is an attack on habeas corpus! Ha, what fucking delusional morons, so obviously lying to themselves while people with maga intelligence like us can see the writing on the wall! And the writing says, "I'm not having gay thoughts, I'm not having gay thoughts, I'm not having gay thoughts, FUCK TRANS PEOPLE I'M NOT HAVING GAY THOUGHTS!

>>1519825
