DHS Secretary Kristi Noem told the Senate today that we should suspend habeas corpus. When asked what that meant, she incorrectly called it a president's right "to remove people from this country.” Habeas corpus: a due process right that compels authorities to justify imprisonment before a court.

I know that Trump's admin was hired specifically for their willingness to lie for him, but I think Kristi really is dumb enough to believe the idiotic things she says.

This is f*cked up. Awarding $5M to the family of Ashli Babbitt is a disgrace to the memory of those who defended democracy on Jan 6th. It dishonors Capitol Police, Metropolitan Police, and especially those who lost their lives or were severely injured protecting the peaceful transfer of power.
