The comments directed @radiofreetom.bsky.social over the last few days about whether we are currently living in what can properly be described as a fascist state are completely missing his point.

If the U.S. government is going to take the position that, once removed from the United States, folks can’t be brought back, then it sure seems to me that federal courts should be reflexively and categorically barring *all* removals until they’re 100 percent certain that the removals are lawful.

If you accept that non-citizens have no right to due process, you are accepting that citizens have no right to due process. All the government has to do is claim that you are not a citizen; without due process you have no chance to prove the contrary.

People need to be crystal clear about something: The requirement that the government ANSWER to a court on the legal basis for detaining someone is literally the core liberty right (habeas corpus). If the government says they don’t have to do that bc “national security,” YOU can be disappeared.

2- did not engage in any corrupt governmental activity
3- listened to family about rights being stripped from women, gays, and trans folks.

5- treated fellow humans like humans
