The Chief Justice speaks out to protect democracy, at least as far as his own institution is concerned. Hopefully this signals an intent to stand for more. In the face of silence from the GOP, he has chosen to take this remarkable step of warning the president to back off.

this is a bad sign for the administration on the Roberts Rudeness Index (the metric I made up for whether John Roberts thinks that somebody has been Rude, and therefore rules against them)

In 1863, on a bloody Gettysburg battlefield, Abraham Lincoln asked for our dedication to self-governance, so that the “dead shall not have died in vain.” I am not about to let a narcissistic despot & his sycophants, bent on destroying America, achieve their vile goals. How about you?

This is one reason why we have to stop saying Trump is enacting "anti-DEI" measures. We have to stop accepting the acronym "DEI" in general. This isn't about specific measures to promise diversity, equity, & inclusion. This specific action constitutes an ethnic cleansing of our shared history.

People need to be crystal clear about something: The requirement that the government ANSWER to a court on the legal basis for detaining someone is literally the core liberty right (habeas corpus). If the government says they don’t have to do that bc “national security,” YOU can be disappeared.

Donald Trump is human garbage, willing to endanger President Biden’s family for politics. In 2021, he used his power to extend Secret Service protection to his grown kids—something normally for college-aged children. Biden didn’t touch it. But Trump? Pure scum.

Shorn of the legalities, the Admin basic position is that we can do whatever we want if we say it's national security (and that includes Trump lies about same, which can't be questioned) and we don't have to tell court or anyone why. That's tyranny, plain and simple.

By the by, this from the DOJ lawyers is a fortitori an argument that if the government wants to kidnap some people, load them into planes, fly out past the maritime boundary, and then simply dump them in the sea, that’s not something that any US Judge could rule was against the law.
