When you have the FBI showing up and harassing public defenders at their homes because they are defending ice victims etc you are far past the point the courts will be able to stop this.
Fascism sees the social construction of society and rule of law and rides an unreality based steamroller over it.

FBI agents are now visiting Charlottesville’s public defenders *at their homes*. It’s naked intimidation of our justice system.
FBI shows up at Charlottesville public defender's home unannounced after ICE raid
The day before the Memorial Day weekend, FBI agents arrived at the homes of Charlottesville-area lawyers to question them about an ICE raid in the city in April.

It’s incredible that the President of the United States is openly flirting with suspending Habeas Corpus, disappearing people left and right, arresting judges and politicians, accepting ludicrous bribes from foreign countries, and people are still trying to normalize this shit.

In her book "The New Jim Crow," Michelle Alexander talks about how evil prosecutors are. Here's one of many examples proving that point.
One last point on criminal records.
I once represented a person charged with a felony for obstructing a police officer.
Client had slapped cop's hand away when he groped client.
The prosecutor didn't dispute those facts, but argued Client should have serviced the cop and reported him later.

Every American skipping over this violation of the law, and assuming this happens to 'people who deserve it/are dodgy somehow,' should realize that there is jack-all stopping them from doing the same thing to you next, if you shrug off the rule of law for people on visas.
ICE is not accounting for the whereabouts of dozens of detainees from New Mexico
ICE has ‘disappeared’ 48 New Mexico residents, attorneys say • Source New Mexico
“We don’t know what’s happened to these four dozen New Mexicans. They’ve effectively disappeared. They’re gone,” an ACLU attorney said.

They want the unreviewable power to grab people and render them to a foreign gulag.
If the Supreme Court ultimately agrees with what the gov't is arguing today, that the President has broad Article II powers that would permit it to deport people & there can be no judicial review, then literally no one is safe.

i don't know if i've ever felt more hopeless than watching an elderly black man get dragged out of the room for calling out fascism while dozens of white people sat silently with their lollipop signs and watched and did nothing
He stood alone with courage in the face of tyranny.

The Republican Party at the highest levels is a Nazi party and they are planning on creating an emergency to justify the final grab for power and shutting the lights of on America forever. bsky.app/profile/newr...
"They have borrowed directly from Nazi sources to make the very same points that the Nazis were making. They understand very well that the way to establish a form of government that is not bound by law or reason is to declare a state of emergency."
Beware Trump’s Talk of Coming “Emergencies”
Far-right rhetoric is suffused with dark talk of impending calamities. It’s a favorite trope of autocrats who are, themselves, the calamity.
