They could give lessons on how to destroy your own country...

Taxation without representation. As US citizen abroad you must file and pay US taxes on income. We can't vote? We won't pay.

All in the family...

If we can't vote...we won't pay taxes in the USA as we are required to do. No taxation without representation.
Where have I heard that before??

Idiot being the operative...

Philadelphia, September 17, 1787: "Well, Dr. Franklin, what do we have?" "A republic, if you can keep it."

With a judicial finger in the constitutional dike,
It is so ORDERED.

FRED BIERY
UNITED STATES DISTRICT JUDGE

Ultimately, Petitioners may, because of the arcane United States immigration system, return to their home country, involuntarily or by self-deportation. But that result should occur through a more orderly and humane policy than currently in place.

Observing human behavior confirms that for some among us, the perfidious lust for unbridled power and the imposition of cruelty in its quest know no bounds and are bereft of human decency. And the rule of law be damned.

Accordingly, the Court finds that the Constitution of these United States trumps this administration's detention of petitioner Adrian Conejo Arias and his minor son, L.C.R. The Great Writ and release from detention are GRANTED pursuant to the attached Judgment.

U.S. CONST. amend. IV.

Civics lesson to the government: Administrative warrants issued by the executive branch to itself do not pass probable cause muster. That is called the fox guarding the henhouse. The
Constitution requires an independent judicial officer.

...but upon probable cause, supported by Oath or affirmation, and particularly describing the place to be searched, and persons or things to be seized.

And then there is that pesky inconvenience called the Fourth Amendment:

The right of the people to be secure in their persons, houses, papers, and effects, against unreasonable searches and seizures, shall not be violated, and no Warrants shall issue...

3. "For quartering large Bodies of Armed Troops among us."
4. "He has kept among us, in Times of Peace, Standing Armies without the consent of our Legislatures."

"We the people" are hearing echos of that history.

Thirty-three-year-old Thomas Jefferson enumerated grievances against a would-be authoritarian king over our nascent nation. Among others were:
1. "He has sent hither Swarms of Officers to harass our People."
2. "He has excited domestic Insurrection among us.”

This Court and others regularly send undocumented people to prison and orders them deported but do so by proper legal
procedures.

Apparent also is the government's ignorance of an American historical document called the
Declaration of Independence.

The government has responded.

The case has its genesis in the ill-conceived and incompetently-implemented government pursuit
of daily deportation quotas, apparently even if it requires traumatizing children.
