The Trump administration came to the Supreme Court on Friday morning, asking the justices to allow it to enforce an executive order that directs government officials to quickly remove, without a hearing, noncitizens who are designated as members of a Venezuelan gang. The order relies on a 1798 law that until now has only been invoked during wartime.

    I think you’re underestimating him. First of all the evidece in fact points towards him actually trying to go through with annexing Greenland. Which he might want for its ressources but it would also put him in a much better position against Canada and since he’d be loathed by all his former allies anyway at this point he might as well go all in. Also none of what’s happening is intended to solve the so called immigration problem. It’s first and foremost a front for forced labor. And it’s not gonna stop at immigrants. If they declare you an enemy combatant and throw you in jail it doesn’t matter if you actually are or if your political activism just inconvenienced them. You can’t do anything about it because at that point your consitutional protection is already gone.
