Rules:
-- PLEASE KEEP POST TITLES INFORMATIVE --
-- Overly editorialized titles, particularly if they link to opinion pieces, may get your post removed. --
-- All posts must include a link to their source. Screenshots are fine IF you include the link in the post body. --
-- If you are citing a twitter post as news please include not just the twitter.com in your links but also nitter.net (or another Nitter instance). There is also a Firefox extension that can redirect Twitter links to a Nitter instance: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/libredirect/ or archive them as you would any other reactionary source using e.g. https://archive.today/ . Twitter screenshots still need to be sourced or they will be removed --

-- Repeated consecutive posting of reactionary sources, fake news, misleading / outdated news, false alarms over ghoul deaths, and/or shitposts will result in a comm ban.--
-- Neglecting to use content warnings or NSFW when dealing with disturbing content will be removed until in compliance. Users who are consecutively reported due to failing to use content warnings or NSFW tags when commenting on or posting disturbing content will result in the user being banned. --
-- Using April 1st as an excuse to post fake headlines, like the resurrection of Kissinger while he is still fortunately dead, will result in the poster being thrown in the gamer gulag and be sentenced to play and beat trashy mobile games like 'Raid: Shadow Legends' in order to be rehabilitated back into general society. --

Must be their attempt to detain U.S. citizens without trial or due process, if not now, in the future. Preventive prosecution.
With the scotus forbidding Nationwide injunctions there is nothing to stop the administration rounding up Americans and sending them to camps.
That is what that decision was made for. The Supreme Court canceled a former co-equal branch of government from being able to stop an executive branch fully intent on betraying the Republic in every way.
Scotus needs to resign in disgrace for traitorism, and all federalist society hacks need be sidelined. This dumster fire needs to burn out first. Fucking hack traitor cock scum all, by every right [redacted.]
If you're still around in 5 years, I'll make a 50 dollar bet that the next blue-flavored one will do nothing but symbolic gestures and maybe a concession or two at most to roll any of this back and continue the immigration policy, economic policy and placate fundamentalist nonsense while China blows us apart in every metric. Maybe shitlibs could actually do something about their supposed grievances with Taiwan or Ukraine if they didn't gargle the propaganda fed to them about how great capitalism is and western exceptionalism.
There was nothing before. Something...guant...Guantanamo?
The federal judiciary was to stop them before, doing anything systematically it would get challenged and then shut down nationwide.
Now they can only provide specific relief to the person that actually manages to get their suit heard. Or they could try to get everyone that is now disappeared by the federal government or that may be disappeared by the federal government soon to join a class action lawsuit.
That was a huge judicial decision that is not recognized as such by our preening self important influencers and media. But even the better ones do not get it even as they continue to trust establishment figures.
Not in Guantanamo. Supreme Court actually approved it! Not in Afghanistan. Not in Iraq. Not in Gaza, more recently under the last admin and current. It didn't stop the Patriot Act. It didn't stop the extensive drone-strikes under Obama which the record was only broke by our recent President. It didn't get us anything either, as even with a court and a supermajority Dems still decided to "compromise" on a dysfunctional healthcare act while chiding us that it is better than nothing. What point are you trying to make here? "pretty cheap", using your own words.
There was a very long period of time where that happened here in America on suspected communists, socialists, etc that moved onto Islamic terror threats shortly after 9/11. Or we could talk about the throes and throes of people disappeared in the vast swathes of nations America intervened, invaded or subjugated since the 1800s.
Essentially, what I am going to communicate to you in very simple terms is that we as communists never have believed in a capitalist nation that you have any rights at any point. All of your rights could be easily pushed aside, subsumed or "rewritten" by the will of the ruling class and have been only stumbled, temporarily, by organized labor. That was only one step.
