The president is asserting an unreviewable power to seize any person off the street and ship him to a dungeon abroad. Nobody can say this is an overreaction or alarmism or "TDS" when this is literally what the administration is doing right now.

Unfortunately, the Constitutional crisis is here.
Their next move will be to grab Trump critics off the street and then disappear them.
We are living in scary times. But I think we need to keep fighting for what's left of our democracy.
Thank you! Someone said I sounded crazy for posting about this the other day. How can people be aware of what is going on and not see it for the takeover that it is?
Yes, after all of hitler’s crimes against humanity, his last act of depravity was to plunge the people who believed in him into a suicidal last stand that saw him recruit children and elderly into meaningless resistance. Hitler and now Trump rely on everlasting self-destructive ignorance & loyalty.
Arm yourself and train. Train and organize your community for mutual care and defense. Nobody healthy wants violence but self-defense is a human right.
Nonviolent protests engaging a threshold of 3.5% of the population have never failed to bring about change!!!

Like all extremely agressive bullies, King Donald is not going to stop at this effort. How long will it be before Trump´'s most agressive actions are against his US opponents?
I believe this is illegal but the courts must decide if they can rule on this. They must decide who has standing and how does our democracy survive if the darkness and illegal actions of our government can be dealt with. We MUST fight this legally and without violence.
It's been done before. He has a political party that are Traitors and voters that are traitors. They are throughout the fabric of our cities and states. It's a venemous poison.
its a violation of the geneva conventions. one would subject themselves to the ICC if they ever travelled abroad. personally im a fan of the death penalty for crimes against humanity.
I often think of all the Political Assassinations in the 1960’s; today’s pervasive gun culture; and ask myself, “Where have all the assassins gone?” Any of you do the same?
Goldberg @washingtonweekpbs.bsky.social asked his commentators about this. All declined to say we have a "constitutional crisis." They got themselves wrapped around the axle, dancing with technical finery, totally missing what is obvious. Tame and lame as Trump bulls his way through Democracy.
Jonathan Karl did a good job confronting Tom Homan about this.
My only regret is that Karl didn't remind Homan that Mr. Trump's confidence in law enforcement was less solid when it was HE receiving the benefit of due process.
China, Chile, Russia, Spain, Cambodia...
Countries disappearing folks.
This is history we already have thanks to WWII
Trump wants to disappear his opponents.
This will not end well.

And the Bukwark still hasn’t done a story on the UNITARY EXECUTIVE THEORY they have supported through elected officials: REAGAN, CHENEY and the DUMB BUSH.
Teach us about this vile theory Tim, Sarah, JVL. You can do it!! Si se puede!!
Fact: Trump is using the Aliens Enemies Act to suit this purpose..
Trump will use that Act to also attack US Citizen Protesters in 2028!
Trump will stop at nothing and I mean nothing to stay in power for a third term!
Interesting because trump’s mother is an immigrant. Trump is just lucky she was married to his American (anchor child) father. Yes his father is an anchor child because his immigrant grandfather wanted to go back to Germany. He didn’t even want to be in America
Holding that a *former* POTUS is not to be prosecuted for official acts is not that important. There was still a case after Trump v. U.S.
It wasn't a license for a *current* POTUS to do anything he wants. Once again, failure to respond to Trump is largely on some very cynical people in Congress.
Roberts owns it and is the last circuit breaker from a collapse. SOTUS took an oath to the Constitution (unlike Trump antics), and it’s up to SCOTUS to put limits on this nonsense, despite the whining and threats from Trump. Showdown is coming soon.
Trump has effectively suspended habeas corpus. We are not being invaded, nor is there an active rebellion. These are the only circumstances the constitution gives for allowing detention without the right to legally challenge it.
My understanding is that martial law can only be applied when there is no functioning judiciary. Wouldn’t the court’s acknowledgment of its inability to apply the law be giving Trump an excuse to declare martial law.
This is only the beginning, the next step will be the targeting of high profile Donald Trump critics because, if you 'silence' them, an awful lot of the population will fall into line out of fear for their own safety.
It’s not clear what comms occurred leading to the forcible removal of 200 men to a prison in ES, that appears to mislead us as to how it occurred. What comms & records preceded forcible relocations of 200 migrants?
Why were conflicting explanations given for the AEA use - against a judge’s orders?

« What, then, should Boasberg do?
He should announce, calmly, frankly, and clearly, that we have entered a constitutional crisis. »
But this is the truth. If they can take THEM, they can take YOU.
And what happens in the foreign dungeon might evenutally match what happened in the darkest dungeons in Nazi Germany.

Trump's impeachment for 1/6/21 should have been confirmed.
Delay in prosecuting him plus Judge Cannon didn't help.
Then, knowing what we know with re Trump's conduct & character, people still voted for him.

Time for everyone to take a stand. We NEED you guys!
Please ask your
