WOW: "The government is asserting a right to stash away residents of this country in foreign prisons without the semblance of due process that is the foundation of our constitutional order. This should be shocking to the sense of liberty that Americans far removed from courthouses still hold dear."

My advice is if your law firm can't say this, get yourself a new law firm.

Right now @booker.senate.gov is filibustering on the senate floor “for as long as [he is] physically able.”
Grateful to see Dems with some fight in them! This part about John Lewis is particularly meaningful.
Check it out and then go find Senator Booker live on every platform!!

America has never been subject to this level of authoritarianism, and quite frankly, sheer incompetence.
Out of the ashes, this moment should radicalize us to embark on an era of new reform — of our economy, our democracy, and our commitment to social justice and the law.

If your plan is to keep your head down and hope it goes away, I can show you all of human history why it won’t work.
If it’s to capitulate and hope they ignore you, I can show you thousands of Trumpers who’ve already lost their jobs & savings.
Fighting back isn’t an option.
It’s the only option.

So we could lose $200B in tourism, $100B in immigrants paying taxes, $100B in weapons manufacturing, $500B in lost tax revenue from firing IRS employees… is it sinking in yet?
International tourism is worth $200 billion every year to the US economy.
