You fought for habeas corpus, put it in your constitution, and now you’re just gonna let a game show host take it away? You’re not losing your rights. You’re handing them over.

🇺🇸 “Rolling Stone reached out to all 53 GOP senators after the president said he didn't know whether he needs to honor the nation's founding document. None replied.” www.rollingstone.com/politics/pol...

“If you’re not used to fighting, and losing battles, then don’t become a lawyer ... Our job is to stand up for people who can’t do it themselves.” “Right now ... we can’t lose the battles we are facing.” - Justice Sonia Sotomayor

Important to understand -

Americans still think bad things will never happen to them, so they don’t care.

Tariffs are taxation without representation. We wrote a whole Declaration of Independence about it. Threw tea in the harbor and everything.

Even *if* you accept Stephen Miller’s (textually, historically, and morally indefensible) claim that undocumented immigrants are not entitled to due process, you’d *still* need due process to ensure that the individuals at issue are, in fact, undocumented. His argument fails even on its own terms.

Contrasted with NYT, here's a newspaper exercising responsible editorial judgment.

We must!

The #constitution comment should've been THE major American headline! What's going on? Why wasn't it?

Please pay attention

#declarationofindependence - read it for yourself. IGNORE TR*MP.

#Dueprocess is what ascertains if someone is actually a criminal - like the one in the White House.

There's #truth in this! #ICE #guns #teachers

This is the #truth right here!

"No republic has ever survived this level of inequality for long and remained a republic." - Pete Buttigieg

#Christian nationalists are a heretical #cult. They've left the #teachingsofjesus behind in their bid for power.

#christiannationalists have completely forgotten that Jesus taught #wokeness to his disciples. ❤️ #readthebeatitudes
