If Trump wants to deport undocumented migrants, they will still need a hearing before an immigration judge. The next available final hearing date, based on current backlog of 1,478,623 asylum cases pending, is in 2029—after Trump has left office. They haven’t though this through. Shocking.
*thought
Separation of powers is a gentleman's agreement that depends on all 3 branches respecting it. If Trump violates process & ignores court orders, who enforces them? Besides, he wants to declare them criminals and put them in slave labor camps under the 13th Amendment.
Really George, do you think he cares about that?
You're assuming they'll take the legal process route...🤫
On January 20th Trump will be our first dictator. Dictators don’t believe pesky legalities apply to their agenda. He’s already trying to strip every branch of government from applying their power. 😞
We the people are going to sit back and let it happen because those that elected him wanted it. They didn't see immigrants as human. It had nothing to do with breaking the law. If it did they wouldn't have elected a felon. Black people didn't support him. We know about being treated inhumane.
He will abandon the hearings and dictate just as he wishes.
I suspect the majority of these deportations will be extrajudicial despite the rule of law since “you know who” has no concern for the law or the constitution
The executive order will eliminate the process though. Immigration judges? No longer necessary. Part of the budget cuts I’m sure.
Unless he declares Martial Law. And I highly doubt there is going to be anyone that would stop him from doing just that.
But you know the camps will be built and the pogroms will start.
You mean, according to the law. What are the chances that Trump cares about such trifles?
It's okay George, our brains did the correction already, we're not on X here! 🖖
They won't follow the process.
Yeah this American life did an episode on it with someone from his admin on how they will bypass the laws
Exactly my belief. tRump and his gang will bypass all laws to charter planes and have a daily airlift full of brown people to Central and South American Capitals. It will be so reckless and indiscriminate as to sweep up people that are here legally as well.
To me, the part that has me worried is when those countries refuse to take them back.
My thoughts as well.
Exactly. As far as I can tell he is planning on dismantling all systems and power structures.
Exactly, who is going to say no to him?
And he has Immunity now.
Yup.
Anyone who does will be sacked, or worse. I just read a book about Stalin. It’s amazing how one person can make an entire nation kowtow to them. 😢😢😢
Absolutely insane you would compare the man who stopped Hitler to a Hitler impersonator. . . Stalin wasn't perfect, but he is a polar opposite of Trump: a Georgian Peasant who gave his life to serving the Working Class. Maybe you should try reading a book which isn't comprised of ahistorical slander
What happened to the 50 million people whose death he is alleged to be responsible for?
Perhaps the silver lining of him dismantling all systems and structures, what rises out of it will be the America that does ensure the rights of ALL citizens. It would be the best thing white allies can do for Black people.
One can only hope.
I agree. There will be some emergency power that will he will use to enact, and he will have support of courts. I look at Ken Paxton here in Texas and see how things are done. The saving grace will be big money intervening that know how their economy will suffer if the workforce disappears.
Big money won't matter, IMHO.
Perhaps not. It will be up to us as a large mass of people to keep watch and object. The Operation Wetback in the 50’s ended due to public outcry.
We knew what you meant Georgie
George, have you considered that, since imprisoned persons can be used as slaves that even if the Trumpists give lip service to following immigration law, immigrants will be imprisoned and used as slave labor. That is if worse doesn’t happen given that Trump is a Hitler fanboy.
I don't think he's seeking permission.
I doubt he’ll wait for hearings, let alone follow any other established procedures George. He believes he’s above the law now
Love that .
trumpf will override the hearing requirement, no doubt.
I would think due process wouldn't be a concern for him. He'd just round them up and ship them out. Since that's what Greg Abbot and other governors have done (shipping to other states). Immigrants aren't people to Trump, and one you dehumanize a population, the rules are no longer an obstacle :(
Do you really think they will follow the law? I don’t think so!
Trump will find a way around this. Probably using his legal poodle Matthew Kazmierczak, supposedly a federal judge in Texas. We cannot assume legal safeguards will hold. We can assume, however, that Trump's efforts will be marked by massive incompetency.
Bit like his Wall.... Big gaps you can walk through
They will throw that out, so will the conservatives on the Supreme Court.
They can still hold them in the detainment prison camps and force them to work for free until their hearing.Or put ankle bracelets on them until their hearing.
THATS the plan holy sht
I wonder if they'll call them Camp Bedford Forrest or Camp Jefferson Davis, or just go with Birkenau/Treblinka/Aushwitz.
If he declares a state of emergency that will all be skipped
Trump is breaking laws with impunity. You think that will stop? When MAGA says they're "throwing out the rule book" they just mean they'll make their own laws...they own the highest court, the Senate, the House AND the Presidency.
I don't think that due process is an overriding concern of theirs
That’s the way it’s supposed to work. Do you think he cares?
Doesn’t seem to me there’s any penalty for just blatantly ignoring the law.
Only for Trump😡
You know the private prison system is overjoyed about the timeline. They see nothing but $$$.
so glad to see you hear @georgetakei.bsky.social - you were one of my favorites over at twats. xxoo ;-)
Funny joke, he will declare state of emergency for summary deportations
Let's hope your right.
They gave, unfortunately. Cruelty is the point.
It's a bit frustrating to think he will be working on his goals within the system(s) and norms currently in place. Moves to expect from t rump * setting up new courts / authorities / camps. * bullying nations to accept the deportees
Ridiclous! That's a problem regardless of where you stand on illegal immigration - the laws and procedures definitely need to change.
He has no intention of following the rules. He has immunity now.
I agree with your statement but somehow doubt he's concerned about due process.
He's already said on record to "worry about due process second" It was about gun control, but it makes it pretty clear he doesn't care about it. www.usatoday.com/story/news/p...
This is a failure of imagination.
They'll change the law, write an Algorithm, or whatever. I am so afraid, what is about to come to a country that got great because of its democracy. I still believe, there is something wrong with the count of votes.
He doesn’t plan on hearings…He plans on a caravan of planes waiting at airports and just loading em up in the middle of the night and shoving em out without parachutes
judges? you have to be kidding me Mr. Takei. First thing they do is get, um rid of the people with legal educations.
Thinking isn't one of their strong suits!
Trump is incompetent. He didn't build a wall or pass an infrastructure bill the last time he was in office. Both of which he ran on.
But his Healthcare plan was the bomb.
What law?
Wait…you believe they’re thinking?
Thought? The Republicans have the ability of thought?
I don’t think their plans include thoughts. By declaring an emergency war act, he’ll skip due process. They won’t be checking IDs. It will be even worse than we can imagine. My daughter is a teacher with lots of legal and undocumented immigrants. We need to prepare.
There won't be any hearings. They will be forced into deportation camp (his friend will own the camp and pork the government for money), they will be deported even if they were born here. Can you imagine a latino thrown into mexico having never been there?
Is the 1st Lady to be on his list...??
If they bus people to other states who’s gonna stop them bussing people out of the country?
Ummm Nope. He can just tell his military to kick them out. Come on Takei...I know you know better. The Supreme Court made him king Mango Mussilini.
Watching from the Uk and it appears that thinking and politics don’t go together anywhere. 🤯
Mass deportation will cost trillions of dollars and take time. They may not follow some of the process, but the US can not just dump people at the border. They need permission from these countries they want to deport to.
...and why would they? This was 2024's version of 2016's build the wall.
George, we need ability to edit posts :)
Trump declares a National Emergency the Courts will have no power to stop him !
I don't believe t**** is going to play by any of the rules.
Trump think??
....I see a lot of handwringing and 'whatta we gonna do?; It's hopeless!' among the responses. It's not hopeless. Messy, unpleasant, a long slog and undoubtedly ruinous for some of us. But if enough of us simply refuse to fall into line, and persist, we'll give the bums the rush they deserve...
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/People_...
Thinking isn't their strong point
It's almost like they were ... lying or something. Shocking, I know!
Well yeah, but that's only if you're going to follow the constitution and stuff. Clearly not an issue with this administration.
Is there any advice or playbook on how to help immigrants in our communities that you are aware of?
That's assuming he will follow laws, policies, and norms.
Are we sure Trump will leave office in 2028?
I have my doubts. Depends how his health holds out.
Yeah but I worry by the time and if it happens power will be so entrenched in the GOP agenda, we’ll lose fair elections. I didn’t state my concern well (it’s late and I should be sleeping).
No, you stated your concern just fine. I know exactly what you mean. Few days after he won I was on X tweeting that he’ll try 1 of 3 things. Change the rules so he can run for another term. Change the rules so he can serve another term without running. Make himself life President.
Yeah, because he likes how Putin and Jong run their countries.
Trump will leave office in '28, and in reality, it may be before then. I actually think Speaker Johnson will be a very key role in the function of Trump's government. So many others, including Vance, have next to no experience.
SCOTUS 6 will “reinterpret” that silly law.
While I would normally agree with you George, we're not dealing with anything, nor anyone, "normal" here. These MAGA Fascists don't care about laws. They're going to do whatever they want to. And we, the "normal" folks, will have to get in their way when they try to do it. #VetsResistSqadron
It's not a plan. They think threats will cause "self-deportation." The real purpose of the threats is to embolden allies and sow discord.
George as much as that is the rule of law, we now have an administration that doesn’t follow laws.
My fear is Trump doesn’t care about rules or laws. With the SC ruling he thinks he has been given permission carte blanche to do whatever he please with no consequences.
I don’t think anyone believes any protocol will be followed. Rules don’t matter to them because consequences have been almost nonexistent.
Bold of you to assume he'll leave office.
My guess is that due process isn’t part of the plan.
Sadly, he is not going to care about due process.
He won’t obey the law
You're assuming they're going to follow the law. I don't expect them to even pretend to follow the law. I expect military grabbing people of the streets and moving them out of the country by force with no hearing. Will our corrupt SCOTUS intervene? Maybe.
Wouldn’t be surprised if they wave their immigration hearing and worry about the ramifications later.
He’s going to make a state of emergency. He’s not going to use courts
Yep, he says that point blank. No hearings, use of the military ... when he declares a state of emergency he can literally do whatever he wants. Tbh I thought he was going to do that in Nov 2020, and suspend elections. I believe he *will* do that in 2028 – he craves being President For Life.
Sadly yall are assuming this asswipe is gonna follow the rule of law. Curious....why do you think that ?
Trump's lawyers will find some obscure law from 1800 (because Congress has been too lazy to get this obsolete stuff off the books) and they will get around the required hearing
I guarantee Trump will deport them without a hearing. He will not adhere to the law.
What makes any of us think that they will get a hearing? Does anyone believe that the republican congress or the loyalist Supreme Court will defend the law of the land or the constitution when it comes to Trump getting what he wants
You don't really believe they will follow the law do you? Why should they at this point.
like the Trump administration will follow the law…lol
Unfortunately, the nefarious nature of trump and his cronies means that he'll most likely go with declaring a state of an emergency. It's an old law on the books called "the alien enemies act" (I think that's what it's called) from the 1800s, which will let him deport during a state of war...
Now I know what you're going to say.... We're not at war, but just like using an antiquated law, I'm fairly sure that somewhere amongst his minions with studyholism, someone has discovered a loophole to declare war within the nation!
During the Hoover administration, as many as 1.8 million were rounded up and put on trains to Mexico. No legal niceties at all.
Apparently they can do expedite removals if caught with 100 miles of the border, and border includes also international airports.
Trump has proven that he is above the law over and over.
You may be underestimating what were dealing with. They learned from the ineptitude of the last time. I fear they'll find a way and it will be normalized.
Trump tried during his last time in office to round up and deport illegals and he failed. He's full of himself. He only put more fear in those poor families.
they have no intention of giving them a hearing. nor will they take care to separate non-documented from citizens.
Have they thought anything through? They will most likely bulldoze their way regardless of laws and normal protocols.
They won’t abide by the laws and SCOTUS will let them do whatever they want.
That’s bc they’re going to go door to door to pick them up & drag them out. It’s why he’s involving the military.
They don’t think anything through because they are ignorant of how government works. Wannabe Dictator Trump thinks he can just say something and it happens. Legality? He is a criminal who thinks laws are mere suggestions.
George, you know he doesn’t plan on acting legally because he hasn’t acted legally to date. Bell declare martial law and order the military to act.
Why follow the law when you are immune to any consequences?
He would be held accountable
By whom? SCOTUS? They gave him full immunity! Lower court judges? Please. Congress? The House killed a bi partisan border bill on HIS command! No one will stop him because no one can. It will take a bloody prolonged civil war. 😭💔🤬 We’re not in Kansas, we’re in Stalin’s USSR!
How? The supreme court made him king already. He has been given carte blanche with the military and the DOJ and the FBI. The argument IN COURT was..he can have a seal team member murder a political rival and BE 100% IMMUNE.
My guess is that he will build mass detention/forced labor camps like Xi…..
No Dictator ever does think.
This has nothing to do with the law and you know that. If he and Hoem can they will round up the browns and blacks like Nazi Germany and Africa. This is about hate and fear not the law. The immigrants are here because it a better place for them not to take over the country.
He fails to understand that if he goes that route we won't follow the laws either. It's how you get an insurgency and insurgencies are very effective.
Too many sheep.
Yes please. Queer, disabled, non-Christian, pasty Indigenous woman...they have multiple camps waiting for me. My Marine vet and I and other's are standing by waiting for it to start.
I hear you..... Ready!
You're assuming he'll play by the rules?
It would certainly be illegal. Can't see that stopping him.
So, is it wrong to deport illegal immigrants?
And it includes legal migrants who are absolutely essential to the US economy. The farmers are now waking up to what his plans are and they are in full panic mode. Do u think an American can pick strawberries???
The problem is he's not only going to deport illegal immigrants. He's already talking about denaturalization which means if you're not white and are an immigrant, doesn't matter if you have your citizenship.
He will not live out his term. His diet will get him
Don’t know, and definitely don’t care
Ope you must actually be a MAGA then
how can checks and balances work if the mob boss is unethical and deranged in power
I'm sure they intend to break that rule by making another or by simply ignoring it, they will take every inch they are given and trump has already gotten away with waaaay more than he ever should has.
That’s why they’re going to build detention camps in Texas
They will try and bypass this...you see this with who is putting in some positions
Do you think trump will adhere to a hearing ? He won't follow any rule of law1.
I don’t think he plans to do this by established law.
Will people be detained indefinitely while they wait for said hearing? This is despicable and horrendous. I'm past shocked and now I'm just angry 😡
I’m afraid they will just round people up and put them on planes, after a period in a rat infested camp. I can’t see them adhering to any laws.
As if they plan to follow protocol.
I don’t see that he intends to adhere to due process. Declaring de facto martial law means he’s going to make an end run around all the checks and balances that exist in our system. Whether or not it happens, he intends to rule based on political whim, not morality and rule of law
We really need to stop thinking that is a regular transition by a constitutional following administration and start treating it like a coup. No foul hoping for the best but underestimating the worst ppl won’t behave like the worst ppl is a mistake
Deportation is only the First Solution.
You underestimate what can be accomplished in the guise of an emergency. Read Fascist Tactics 101.
Can you even deport an undocumented migrant if they've had a documented hearing before their deportation..? Would they still be undocumented once they've been documented..?
Great point and in a rational world you would be right... but as you know from personal experience, things don't always proceed as they should. Particularly in America. It will be up to people like us to be sure history does not repeat! www.history.com/news/great-d...
😞😢💔🤬
The only people who should be thinking this shit through are the voters. Clearly, a whole lot of them didn't before the election and will be moving on to the Find Out phase in the not too distant future. So many "Do Your Own Research" folks failed to do theirs when it counted most.
Assuming he follows the law. He is emboldened not to do so.
Is due process going to be a thing with this event? I have my doubts. I thought it was going to be more like rinsing unwanted food scraps towards the disposal.
I don't think they care about the rule law George, I don't even think this will slow them down. Donald wants to declare a national emergency to get the military to help him do this and round people up.
Using the military to round up people of certain ethnicities… now where have I heard of that before…
Heilariuos! 💀
"Hearings? We don't need no stinking hearings!" I'm sure their plan is to get rid of any requirement for hearings. As a previous govt shamefully did to you and your fellow Japanese Americans. I hope I'm wrong.
He will put them in camps. Someone is about to enrich themselves while families suffer.
Unfortunatley, I think that they will simply round people up and put them in the camps they are proposing. Their goal is "self deportation" and fear. No need for cases to be heard.
Legal deportation is tricky and slow. Internal camps are quick and easy. People "held for processing", with them being new slave-level labour as a bonus. They needn't ever actually be deported. With a newly broken-down and loyal government, it won't even be appealable, or properly sorted. Disaster.
I don’t like this, but I like the way you figured this out. This makes more sense than immediate mass deportations. This will mollify the rich Good Ol’ Boys that need cheap undocumented ppl/labor that they can exploit without consequences.
basically my thoughts & fears. it's such a big logistical undertaking, it just won't go smoothly, breaking laws or not. the conclusion is chilling, and tried. adding prison-industrial complex, the entirety of trump and who he's for, I can see people start smelling disgusting profits from it too
Yup. Did you see that private prison stocks rose after election? www.forbes.com/sites/dereks...
Civil war is preferable to what's coming. That will be clear by April, at the latest.
I thought the same. Anyone without paperwork on them can be detained.
🤣🤣🤣🤣
I’m sure attorney general gaetz will be fine with it.
😂😂💙
You think they’re gonna stick to the rules?
They'll round 'em up and keep 'em in compounds tent cities, possibly forcing them to work for meals, lodging etc. Slavery comes back to America's shores.
That may be true (and very likely is), but it will not stop them I think.
They will deport first and then say, "oopsie" (as if they'd ever admit fault)
Laws, they don't need no stinking laws.
And let me guess - they’ll be held in internment camps until their hearing which will rip families apart and cripple our economy
well the orange one isn't known for being a great thinker
Consider the cost if they detain them.. as they will be responsible for their room and board, medical care and everything that goes with it. Then the economy will suffer as well as America is "addicted to cheap labor"...
The assumption is they will follow procedures I wouldn’t be taking that bet
Don't worry the doge guy will streamline the process.
No worries. Clarence Thomas is on speed dial.
Think big! They’ve got 2/3 of the Supreme Court on board with the unitary executive theory. Trump will be the law.
But deport to where exactly, if they are undocumented then what?
But he will stomp through his own way
George, you are adorable. You actually think they’re going to follow the law. Why do you think he pestered SCotUS into that immunity ruling?
That assumes he'll follow existing law. Which he won't.
I don’t think they’re going to wait for a hearing and if they do, I shudder to think of the conditions they’ll be kept in. There’s always kangaroo courts hastily constructed to push through cases.
What’s even scarier? That his “unified reich” has thought it through!
He doesn't want that. They just want to relocate millions of people from blue states to red states and hold them captive for the 2030 Census in order to provide numbers for gerrymandering and congressional seats. Yeah, another thing they accuse us of that is really just confession via projection.
Further the INS has stated they don't have enough people to even entertain the thought of a massive deportation.
The prison lobbyists don’t have a problem with that. Yet.
Biden/Harris illegally flew migrants to various cities throughout the country violating federal law. I'm okay with Trump doing the same in the reverse.
I think they know this and that was always the plan. It’s the great do nothing.
I wonder exactly what they have thought through? I have seen no evidence of them thinking about the consequences of any actions.
i think the very purpose of ICE is to be faster than the courts?
You are assuming he will leave office. He's already said we won't be voting again, it was one of his promises.
They will likely avoid the hearings.
You're acting as if they will follow the law.
I don't think he intends to follow due process
It’s cute that you think he would follow the law
All of that will be dismantled, quickly. Perhaps as part of that “one terribly violent day” or whatever he promised.
Even if that works out to be an impediment, they are fully prepared to lock them all in camps for indeterminate times, until they get deported. Until their handlers start complaining about the cost, that is.
Hmmm.... Ten to 1 they find a way.
What you missed is that Trump is reputed to be trying to change the rules so he can stay in office come 2028.
He thinks he's immortal. I doubt that he'll make it through the first year.
He'll leave the country in the hands of his crony's. On that subject, I wonder if the muskrat bought Twitter, specifically to influence the election in his pals favour?
Of course he did. It certainly wasn't for the investment. Its value has dropped 75% since he has destroyed it.
Along with a significant number of its customers 😂
True that
Without a doubt.
George, he's stated back in his first term that he was for worrying about "due process second". There will be no trial. www.usatoday.com/story/news/p...
It’s not easy to deport anyone to jurisdictions that won’t cooperate. Will this lead Trump to resurrect his scheme to buy Greenland from the Danes?
Is it possible/probable they will skip this step?
He’s said he’ll declare martial law which the GQP with control of house and senate can rubber stamp. Habeus Corpus can be suspended. Which means no hearing no due process and they just deport you, citizen or not. So Latinos for Trump, get your bags ready.
Assuming they don’t find an obscure way to thwart current rule of law
This predicates on the fallacy that fascists care about the rules or are bound by them. They don’t. They will simply act.
If they go the legal way, yes - but if there’s anything these past 8 years have taught me, it’s that the barbarity of the past isn’t actually as unthinkable as we used to believe. In 1955 they deported people, even us-citizens, kidnapper-style, for LOOKING Mexican. www.history.com/news/operati...
I've been worried about this. I have a 1/2 Mexican/Native American granddaughter. My granddaughter has beautiful skin and hair color of the Mex/Native American. I am scared for her
Im afraid someone will stereotype and give her problems.She was born here. Her mom is born citizen- Caucasian. Her dad born here but mex/native.
I’m so sorry these fears have become an actual thing for Americans. I hope this never happens and that you all get through these times unharmed, and that the future is brighter than this ❤️
Thank you. My health isn't great but I hope I live to see a better country after 2028.
Two problems with your perspective: 1) he will do what he wants if he has enough loyalists in place. He will say that a national emergency overrides courts; 2) you assume he will step down.
He will remove the judges under martial law!!!
trump will ignore the laws requiring hearings. He will also ignore any court rulings against him.
Doesn't this mean they will likely expand detainment centers as holding places?
He's going to declare a federal emergency and void the need for hearings
I'm sure "due process" is not high on Trumps agenda George! I expect "illegal immigrant" to mean either: 1. Has citizenship but we don't like you. I saw video of a Texan Police officer threatening a guy that "when Trump gets in..." 2. Is awaiting an immigration hearing.
You assume they will follow a legal path to accomplish their sick promise. ThenAG pick tells me nothing these clowns want to do will follow any US law
Also, infrastructure to hold them and count willing to take them.
*countries
Oh my !
If Supreme Leader says deport them what use is an immigration judge?
I don't think they care. They've already stated they plan to ramp up their denaturalization efforts to remove immigrants who are American Citizens.
If you think they care about judges backlogs you are delusional. They will just deport regardless of law. Law and order are officially passé.
This right there is why so many people are here illegally. Someone can arrive legally, but the process takes so long that their visa expires before seeing a judge.
I’m pretty sure that the bill that they refused to pass planned for more judges to speed things up? But I could be wrong.
Sure they did...makes it someone else's fault.
He's going to call for a national emergency and use the military. No need for the courts.
They will set up fake tribunals
He won't mind breaking laws now that he has immunity.
Doesn’t matter if he calls it a national emergency/martial law.
I am sure you are right,but I can't imagine Felonious Trump following any rules.He made a pledge to deport many thousands.Surely he wouldn't make empty promises in order to secure his election?
The rules don’t apply to him thou. SCOTUS made him the king.
A tub of fools. Simply fools. With trump as Head Fool.
That's assuming that they follow the law. The MAGA crowd is more likely to just grab people off the street, shove them in a truck, and dump them on the Mexican side of the border. If the victims are lucky, they won't be dumped in the middle of the Mexican desert.
He’s going to just do it without a hearing because “national emergency”
I don’t think they plan on giving anyone a hearing
Hopefully he hasn’t been watching Judge Dredd
Classic
I'm pretty sure their entire plan is to circumvent/ignore the law and enlist the military to round up suspects and toss them into internment camps. "Habeas corpus"... "never heard of it"!
@joheppell.bsky.social
Yeah, but you assume this administration headed by a clown wants to follow due process and the rule of law, when it's mobocracy at its finest; using military forces. It's very tiring to live above the meth lab and see when a toned down version of this insanity will cross the border here in Canada.
Awww… look at you, pretending the laws still matter and common sense should prevail. We are entering the Wild West and it’s going to be a lawless irrational time of fuckery and gaslighting.
He doesn’t care about following the law
📌
Coming from someone whose family was interned by executive order and without any due process, your naïveté is appalling. Shame on you.
They want to use the Alien Enemies Act to deport without any hearings. It's probably not going to work, but that's the plan.
He was elected for saying his intentions, now he's in, he's gonna play golf. Again. (What wall and who's money...)
Because they’ve shown so much concern with due process and decency. These are the same people who brought us children in cages.
Reality Check: Even under a National Emergency, due process still applies. Immigration hearings are required by law, and with 1.5M+ cases backlogged, mass deportations aren’t feasible. But emergency powers could pressure Congress to fast-track laws—a dangerous precedent. #StayInformed
Due process and Trump? Did you forget all those nursing babies ripped from their mothers breasts during Trump 1 and how we still dont know where or who he sold all of them to??
We have not forgotten! States are stepping up to challenge unconstitutional actions, but we, as citizens, must do our part too. Staying informed, demanding accountability, and supporting legal challenges are essential. Democracy thrives when we all refuse to be complacent. #StayVigilant"
He won’t give them a hearing. The rule of law is gone? 🤷🏼♀️🤬
He doesn’t plan to leave office, so… but yeah. You, Sir, are an inspiration. Thank you for all of the memories past and future! <3
He won’t care. Just toss them in jail and go from there. He isn’t worried about laws. Silly you. 😢😢😢
I love you George. But they are clearly not concerned with legal procedure. You know personally how that goes.
Even worse: They make the mistake of not calling it “repatriation program”. Nice time line in episode 6 here:
What part of any of this makes you think they will follow the standing laws? They genuinely believe that the law doesn't apply to them, and they can do whatever they want.
I’m sure they’re going to try to find a way
Hint: they don't intend to play by the rules.
Sounds like they plan to just get the military to go round people up under the guise of a "national emergency" which allows them to suspend certain rights.
They will skip the hearing and just deport. MAGA is above the law now.
He’ll eliminate that. He’s king remember. Supreme Court 😡
I think you're mistaken though, Trump can do whatever he wants he will deem them a national security threat and bypass any court
That's when we form a insurgency and fight them as necessary.
They won’t follow the law, silly goose.
Thinking isn’t their strong suit.
George, he will suspend the ruke of law under the "eminet threat" language because it's a crisis.
You think HE cares about trials? Watch...
You're assuming the laws apply, but they have never applied to him.
you think he’s going to voluntarily leave office?
