Kristi Noem, the homeland security secretary, bungled answers on Tuesday about habeas corpus, incorrectly saying that the legal right of people to challenge their detention by the government was actually the president’s “constitutional right” to deport people.

“Habeas corpus is the legal principle that requires the government to provide a public reason for detaining and imprisoning people. If not for that protection, the government could simply arrest people, including American citizens, and hold them indefinitely for no reason.”

So, according to Jake Tapper, Joe Biden was so infirm, so cognitively vacant, so frail and feeble, so incompetent that he was utterly unfit to serve & yet, at the very same time, he was able to hide all of that from the press, including the likes of Jake fucking Tapper? Are you fucking kidding me?

A rogue president with a loyal DOJ isn’t unstoppable, unless we act like peasants. Courts can stop him. States can sue him. Whistleblowers can expose him. But it takes all of us, loud, sharp, fed up. Power bends to pressure. So push. Hard. Clean House with your votes, or get steamrolled. Our call.

The very definition of evil is incarcerating for life in one of the worst hellholes on Earth men who did everything right. But it’s beyond evil—beyond demonic—to then not try to do anything to save the men you consigned to Hell, and to in fact libel and slander them daily when they cannot reply.

Trump isn't threatening Beyonce, Springsteen, Bono, and Oprah because he expects them to be charged with anything. He is threatening them to intimidate others from speaking up. That is because Trump fears your voice; he fears the power of the people. Speak up. Stand strong. Organize.
