This is one of the saddest capitulations I have ever seen. A law firm honored for its bravery has more than bent the knee and kissed the ring: it has paid the ransom demanded by Trump. www.nytimes.com/2025/03/20/u...

Whether the person is a citizen wouldn't change that because there's no point they could even tell a court they're a citizen.
Wow. DOJ is arguing that the President has authority outside the Alien Enemies Act in international waters "that would not be subject to either orders."
