“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.”
Does Kristi Noem even know what habeas corpus is?
The Homeland Security secretary's word salad raised even more questions about the administration's assault on fundamental rights.

About a month ago, my students did a project on the Civil War and reconstruction. One group did theirs on the KKK. Given our recent political climate, I thought their work has a deeper meaning to both US History and today.
