Excellent explainer from @SteveVladeck.Bsky.social on why immigrants, including the men deported under Alien Enemy Act, are entitled to due process.
Bonus 133: Due Process and the Rule of Law
Too many Americans don't understand, at a basic level, *why* the Constitution requires due process when the government deprives anyone of their life, liberty, or property.

Trump won’t rule out running for a third term — even though the 22nd Amendment prohibits it. He told NBC that he could find ways to pursue it and noted that he was “not joking.”

Trump won’t rule out seeking a third term in the White House, tells NBC News ‘there are methods’ for doing so
President Donald Trump said in a Sunday-morning phone call that he was “not joking” about a third term, adding that “it is far too early to think about it.”

NEW: @aclu.org obtained ICE's "Alien Enemies Act Validation Guide," confirming all it takes to be sent to rot in prison in El Salvador is being Venezuelan and 1) having a tattoo an ICE officer says is a "gang tattoo" and 2) displaying "logos," "symbols" or clothes an ICE officer says are gang signs.

On today’s episode of “if Obama”
If Obama fired over a dozen inspectors general in the middle of the night, the media would have (appropriately) excoriated him over the illegality and absolutely tanked his approval ratings
Trump does it, and CNN calls it a “shakeup”
Shameful.

The thing to understand about Trump is like in his first term, he doesn’t want to govern. He doesn’t want to learn. He wants to campaign and look good.
Republicans know this. So there are battles going on right now to take control of the actual process of governing.
