AMERICAN GULAG
Abrego Garcia was swept up in an ICS raid and flown to El Salvador without a warrant, a court appearance or any semblance of due process. The feds claimed he was a gangster but he wasn’t. He was in the US legally and had committed no crime.
So why hasn’t the T**** administration acted to secure Mr. Abrego Garcia’s release? After all, he is there because of a government screw-up.
Horrifying enough, there can be only one answer. The T**** administration is using this case to establish that no one can stop him from imprisoning anyone he wants anywhere in the world.
In an amazing Catch-22 presentation to the Supreme Court, the administration argued that the only remedy available to a person in custody is a writ of habeas corpus, But then the administration contended that federal courts have no authority to issue such a writ when the person is held in a foreign prison, even when they put him there in the first place.
There can be no doubt about what this means.
If SCOTUS upholds trhe administration’s argument, there would be nothing to stop T****from without notice arresting and jailing his critics in another country and then claiming that the courts have no jurisdiction to remedy the situation.
Armed with this power, any federal law enforcement agency could apprehend anyone and ship them to any country that would take them. T**** has already floated the idea of deporting American citizens. These individuals would have no legal recourse from any American court. They would just disappear.
What T**** wants is to create his own gulags with no more judicial review than existed when Stalin did the same thing in the Soviet Union.
That’s the power Donald T**** lusts for. He wants what Stalin had. He wants what Hitler had. What Tojo had, and what Jong Un has. He wants absolute, dictatorial and tyrannical power of life and death over anyone and everyone.
Donald T**** is a national Socialist. A Nazi, plain and simple. And he will get what he wants if we do not stop him. If we don’t, we lose everything.
