the people who follow his unlawful unconstitutional orders need to be held accountable for their actions when the next adminstration HAS to clean up this administrations messes.

This type of abuse is old as the hills. The rights enumerated in the constitution only apply to citizens. Look at how wiretapping is done among the "Five Eyes". The USA just has allies do the snooping on its own citizens, conveniently dancing around the same constitutional protections. It's unclear if even under the most charitable reading of the constitution if this should apply to an unlawful foreign resident of another country.

Cruel and unfair, definitely. Much like the electoral college, everyone likes to complain about it while not doing too much. If you find the above distasteful, then it should be made clear in US case law that aliens are eligible for constitutional protections. Until then, Trump and co. will gladly keep doing what they are doing, because they don't care about "being fair".

Uuuuhhh t's going to be citizens, how is this not obvious?

I don't understand it, it's like everybody sees what's right in front of them, knows history and what the Nazis did and how they rose to power, how they maintained it, their goals

And then we see that they are also supporting Nazis and they published their plan online, and people are still doubting how far this will go?

We literally have concentration camps in America, tax-funded. And we sent people there to die without due process

This is just one more step of power that they have, they're going to be able to come after citizens and do that too. They're coming after Free press right now, and they're arresting judges.

Nobody is immune. You can be the perfect white citizen and if they disapprove of you, I don't think there's much stopping them.

Course they don't even have to do any of those things, they can just tweet about you or mention you and destroy your entire reputation and career and livelihood by making up lies

Bold assumption it won't be citizens houses. Unachievable by a competent administrative.

I mean they already are. They've been doing this since March.

The only reason we know is because one of the many employees within ICE who have been leaking information to the press in the hopes we would pressure congress to do their jobs, also leaked this.

If you know anyone in the conservative camp that's still blissfully unaware/not pissed yet, loop them in. Their voices are the most important when it comes to giving Congress one last try while they're still collecting paychecks paid for by our tax dollars.

If it comes down to us fighting we will have to join together anyway if we stand any chance. The next civil war will not be left vs right, it will be Americans refusing to follow orders vs. corporate billionaires controlling both public and private military (Blackwater, Palantir, etc.).

it was supposed to be a secret?

Let's face it, tRUMP is such a narcissistic fool that the only real shocking thing about all this is that he didn't rage-tweet about it in the middle of the night whilst sitting on the toilet in-between faxing top secret documents to Russia and the Saudis.

[–] [email protected] 8 points 3 days ago (1 children)

Faxing top secret documents to Russia and the Saudis is what he was doing during Biden's term. Now, he probably just gave daddy Putin his username and password

DOGE accounts keeps getting accessed from Russia, so...
