By law, any gift to a President worth more than $480 must be transferred to the National Archives. Therefore, as Volunteer Acting Archivist of the United States, I will accept delivery of the luxury jet and use it to bring home all the people the regime has illegally rendered to El Salvador.

"America would not permit the FIRST and BEST Republican President to suspend habeas corpus. Will we permit the LATEST and WORST to do so?"

These "plans" are unconstitutional, because (1) only Congress can suspend habeas corpus, (2) only in "cases of Rebellion or invasion" (neither of which apply), and (3) only when "the public safety may require it" (it doesn't)

Volunteer Acting Archivist of the U.S. here: the 5th Amendment says NO PERSON shall "be deprived of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law." Violations of due process & habeas corpus are the most serious of the regime's crimes, as I explain here:

Hassen lacks the authority to do anything. He was illegally appointed to a nonexistent job by the Secretary, who lacks the authority to do that:

In 1977, nine year old me knew perfectly well that the fascist empire were the bad guys and the anti-fascist rebellion were the good guys. Today, 57 year old emeritus historian me STILL KNOWS THAT. May the 4th be with all of us as we push our current fascist empire towards its inevitable demise.

Happy May Day, fellow patriots!
OMDP is secure and gorgeous. No fascism, no DOGE, no oil wells, just the bright beautiful blooming ocotillos of New Mexico in May

This is the highest of Trump's many high Crimes and Misdemeanors. The regime is violating the lawful orders of the U.S. District Court for the District of Maryland, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the 4th Circuit, and the UNANIMOUS Supreme Court of the U.S.

Yes it is illegal, so I suggest using the word “abducted” or “kidnapped” instead of “deported.” Habeas corpus is what prevents the regime from kidnapping anyone they want to, and it is for everyone, ESPECIALLY FOR A TWO YEAR OLD CHILD WHO IS A U.S. CITIZEN!

The Constitution gives all PERSONS due process rights, including toddlers! Due process includes habeas corpus for EVERYONE, and (for a minor) the right for a court to determine which parent has custody. BRING THEM ALL HOME NOW!

Since Burgum has abandoned his post I hereby appoint this white cow Acting Secretary of the Interior. At her Senate confirmation hearing she will testify that she plans to continue enforcing the Public Lands Rule by eating and pooping on Organ Mountains Desert Peaks National Monument as usual

Pursuant to the Public Lands Rule I hereby declare that Organ Mountains Desert Peaks National Monument belongs to this gorgeous ocotillo and the other flora and fauna who live here, not to the fossil fuel industry

Burgum PURPORTS to turn Interior over to DOGE. DOGEbags PURPORT to shrink Monuments which only Congress can do. NONE OF THESE ASSHOLES HAVE THE AUTHORITY TO DO ANY OF THIS ILLEGAL BULLSHIT! lewiscall.substack.com/p/western-sk...

Reminder to “Secretary” Burgum and his DOGE goons: BLM volunteers down here at OMDP are a great bunch of old retired guys like me who really have nothing better to do than chain ourselves to some bulldozers if the regime tries to turn the place into an oil field. open.substack.com/pub/lewiscal...

Nope. U.S. Constitution (Art. IV, § 3) gives CONGRESS power to regulate U.S. property. Federal Land Policy and Management Act of 1976 (43 U.S.C. § 1701) gives CONGRESS authority to change existing National Monuments. NEITHER BURGUM NOR WHATEVER DOGE IS HAVE THE AUTHORITY TO DO THIS! --OMDP volunteer

To emphasize that the Trump regime is now openly defying the lawful orders of unanimous U.S District Court, Appeals Court AND Supreme Court, I say “bring them ALL back!” but in Latin:

Prof. Tribe is correct. Bukele must HABEAS CORPUS--bring the body of Mr. Garcia, alive we hope, but bring it in any case, so we know what crimes to prosecute. I hope that everyone who can will go to Washington on Monday and demand this. open.substack.com/pub/lewiscal...

Trump PURPORTS to open National Forests to logging. Like all of his orders, this one is probably illegal, and it won't work if people refuse to carry it out. open.substack.com/pub/lewiscal...
