So
Homeland Security
Director, Kristi,
didn’t know
that habeas
corpus
is for
all of us.
It is not
Trump’s
decision
to imprison
or deport
anyone
he chooses.
But Kristi
refuses
to acknowledge
(did she learn
this in college?)
that we are
a constitutional
democracy.
While some
heard
defiance,
others heard
reliance
on
the Constitution
as the enabler
of the singularity
of authority
of the presidency.
The controversy
isn’t really
about understanding
habeas corpus.
It’s the torturous
logic
of torture
and detention
when the pretention
of
executive order
that suggests
the border
of emergency.
From enhanced
interrogation
to undoing
immigration,
by
denying
due process,
the crisis
excuse
for justified
use
is nothing
less than
constitutional
abuse.
Fast and loose
with interpretation
or not
understanding
the definition
of habeas
corpus,
Krsiti Noem,
Director of Home-
land
Security,
defined
the meaning
of this
presidency:
Because
he says
so.
