It’s also reported that Trump’s people are working on suspending habeas corpus. This would remove your right to challenge your arbitrary imprisonment in court. So they will be able to disappear anyone, forever, with no reason and no legal recourse. Effectively Trump will then be an absolute dictator.

Habeas corpus (/ˈheɪbiəs ˈkɔːrpəs/ ⓘ; from Medieval Latin, lit. ‘you should have the body’) is a legal procedure by which a report can be made to a court alleging the unlawful detention or imprisonment of an individual, and requesting that the court order the individual’s custodian (usually a prison official) to bring the prisoner to court, to determine whether their detention is lawful. Relief, when available, is generally governed by equitable principles.

And the only emergency is the need to stop burning oil and gas because it is making the planet uninhabitable.

Columbia University is really showing its true colors these days, and it’s on the wrong side of history.

It’s a basic protection against the government disappearing anyone they don’t like without trace, trial or legal recourse. So we have to understand that the US Government is equipping itself to disappear anyone, American or otherwise, innocent or otherwise, permanently.

Note that Trump’s people are trying to make sure no one they imprison without trial can ever challenge them in court again:

The resignation comes just months after Thyberg’s predecessor in the high-profile job stepped down and was charged with negligent handling of classified information.

Henrik Landerholm announced his resignation in January as police opened an investigation after he allegedly left classified documents in an unlocked safe at a hotel during a conference.

These are not the same person. Thyberg resigned over Grindr photos, while Landerholm left classified documents unguarded.

Hmm, they’ve made lists of autistic people, trans people and poor people. These fascists sure do love lists - can’t imagine why.

When every single pope looks like a left-wing extremist to you, you may have strayed too far to the right.

Yes, I wasn’t sure, but it doesn’t quite come across right.

Guess they were afraid of themselves.

That seems to drive a whole lot of right-wing attitudes. “Everyone is like me, therefore everyone is scary and dangerous.” But without the self-awareness.

Yeah, they never really meant that stuff. They think some people don’t deserve a life.

I wouldn’t trust mine. They haven’t been doing such a great job for the last few decades.

Trump is trying to crush Canada so he can take it over. Canada needs to turn to other countries for trade, and diversify its economy, not sell its soul to the US fascists.

They’re easy to win. All you do is, whatever happens, say you won.

Not so keen on your use of “other” here.

Because someone told them the Bible told them so.

These people are insane and deeply delusional.

They’re doing it to trans people and autistic people. This is dangerous stuff. It’s time to fight the Nazis again.

The Pentagon will immediately begin moving as many as 1,000 service members who identify as transgender out of the military and give others 30 days to self-identify, under a new directive issued on Thursday.

Buoyed by Tuesday’s supreme court decision allowing the Trump administration to enforce a ban on transgender individuals in the military, the defense department will then begin going through medical records to identify others who have not come forward.

People, this is Nazism. They’re making lists of trans people and autistic people, and forcing doctors to rat on their patients. It is time to fight the Nazis again.

May this strategy work out as well for her as it did for David Cameron in the UK.
