Over on The Hellsite, JD Vance has now functionally called for an end to due process for migrants. His argument is riddled with deceptions, bad faith, and embarrassingly awful logic. I think it needs a real response, so here's what I put up over there.

i get why people try to say the culture war is a distraction but its genuinely not; its the driving force behind it all.
tfw you're trying to explain the intricacies and they just say it outloud and blatantly

don’t worry, all we need to win is the kind of warrior mentality displayed by the armed forces of the russian federation before their successful invasion of ukraine
So the Fort Belvoir campus is not all of the CGSC (which is actually centered in Leavenworth) but my understanding is it is a big part of it & if similar cuts are coming for all PME (professional military education), the results will be very bad for both military readiness & military history.
DOD is apparently ending military education for Army personnel

Yes, Trump and Co. will try to illegally keep power beyond 2028. We know this because we already saw them try in 2020-21.
No, it’s not legal or Constitutional. Anyone even hinting otherwise is wrong.
Regardless, we have more pressing problems than 2029.
There, everything relevant said. Move on.

The “methods for doing so” are (1) getting two thirds of Congress and three fourths of the states to repeal the 22nd Amendment and (2) declaring himself king.
That’s it.
Stop treating this despotic bullshit as if it’s some worthwhile thought experiment we have to consider as legitimate.

President Trump did not rule out the possibility of seeking a third term in the White House, which is prohibited by the Constitution under the 22nd Amendment, saying in an exclusive interview with NBC News that there were methods for doing so and clarifying that he was “not joking.”

Despite admitting to having illegally sent a guy to El Salvador by mistake, and even though the U.S. is paying El Salvador to indefinitely imprison him, the DOJ is arguing that, well, nothing to do, it's not in our hands anymore. The general tone of their response is "welp, sucks to be him."
