Kristi Noem gave an egregiously wrong definition of the legal principle habeas corpus while testifying to senators Tuesday.
“Habeas corpus is a constitutional right that the president has to be able to remove people from this country,” Donald Trump’s homeland security secretary said.
She was quickly cut off by the stunned senator who had asked her to define the term, Maggie Hassan. “That’s incorrect,” the New Hampshire Democrat said.
Hassan explained that the well-known legal concept refers to a detained person’s right to know why they are being held so they can challenge their imprisonment in court.
I hate that the country is being destroyed by the dumbest fucks. I wish it was destroyed by an evil genius. At least then, I could respect how smart and clever their evil plan was. 😔
The smart ones pulling the strings have their names hidden. Better believe Trump and his parties benefactors are driving the chaps they want. How long till our data and protection will be (fully) outsourced?
To my American brothers and sisters here. You need to stop being nice, you need to stop waiting for an imaginary red line to be crossed before you take mass action. That red line passed a long time ago. I am someone from a country with a history of violence, and if you don’t act now your options will end up being violence or a techno fascist state. Cripple the country, general strikes, mass protests! . I genuinely hope I don’t come across as condescending, I’ve protested in vain countless times in my country, to no avail. But you have the numbers!.
Sincerely a concerned friend of the real America.
can you give us advice on how to mass protest better? we’ve been protesting constantly but i don’t know if it’s in the wrong spot or not the right kind of protest or not big enough, because the protests aren’t doing as much as we’d like
Look at the French, at the Serbians, they shut down the country. The protests have to be disruptive by nature otherwise you’re not really achieving anything, they’re still spewing out executive orders and going against everything the legal framework and safeguards you’re supposed to have stand for. That means not waiting for the weekend, but shutting down main streets during the week. Civil disobedience across the entire country to cripple it.
The problem I see unfortunately is apathy, 33% actively want this administration, 33% would rather hide in the basement and hope for the best, and I’m not sure the other 33% have the stomach for it. Trump and his handlers would love nothing more than mass protests to declare an emergency. The question is, do you have the stomach for a fight, or hope that somehow there maybe future elections.
Sorry for the rant! But this is a leftist outsiders perspective.
Huh, looks like she’s just acting out too much and can’t be bothered to behave appropriately.
Time to take her out to the gravel pit, furiously run over to your truck while cursing, grab your shot gun and…
“enjoy the sunset”
This is the woman whose state is still plastered with posters from their anti-drug campaign “Meth, We’re On it”.
Not making that up by the way.
If there was ever a rapid bitch that needed putting down, it sure wasn’t her 18 month old dog.
… She isn’t even allowed to set foot on the 1/5th of her state that is Native Res territory. They’ve all banned her, personally.
Fucking neonazis. Habeas Corpus is necessary to a well functioning democracy just like education. I’m so fed up.
Nothing neo about em. Just Nazis.
When she is required to report to the courts regarding the absence of due process for immigrants they can have fun explaining to a judge why she’s dumber than a box of rocks and can’t be trusted to carry out due process because of it.
Another reminder that qons don’t and never have given a flying fuck about (real) freedom or liberty or the Constitution.
They are lying liars. Don’t believe any of their bullshit about patriotism, or loving this country. They are full of shit. It’s high time the left and liberals have reclaimed patriotism from these assholes.
“I mean really, how pathetic can you Democrats be? Of course I know what the definition of law is… It is whatever Trump says. That’s so well known even my dead puppy knows that!”
Faux News: BADASS Kristi Noem SCHOOLS Democrats on definition of “law.”
Barbie never shot her dog Taffy when Taffy was naughty.
That’s not just wrong, she (or one of her aides) is mocking us.
To admit a fact would be an admission of guilt.
I just wanted to acknowledge how fitting the term ICE Barbie is.
I disagree. It’s completely unfair to Barbie, who has more heart and less plastic.
That’s not how this works. That’s not how any of this works.
