It is long past time that Republicans DEMANDED that judges explain their pseudo-powers, using the US Constitution. Fight them in the court of public opinion. You have Leavitt, Vance, Patel, Ramaswamy, Bongino, etc. They all can decimate the left with cogent arguments. Do it!

The post you responded to mentioned a SCOTUS case where the majority and the dissenting judges DID explain themselves.

(I don’t think Leavitt, Ramaswamy and Bongino are lawyers; and it takes lawyers to fight lawyers.)

I don't know that you'd recognize one, as long as your thought is ruled by emotion instead of logic and legal facts.

It is true that the J6 people were denied their due process rights. But they were the *accused*.

That has nothing to do with the fact that 'due process' as a legal concept and right under our system simply doesn’t apply to *victims* of crime except, as I wrote previously, in the narrowest way.

I guess you two don’t know what a woman is because you aren’t biologists.

Invaders have no rights, the only due process they get is to check that they are invaders, we could shoot them if we chose to do so.

The Bill of Rights belongs to “We the people of the United States.” That means citizens ONLY.

At war with, or under invasion. President Trump has declared the huge influx of aliens from other countries here illegally is an INVASION. The Alien Enemies Act applies.

The real question is if President Trump’s declaration can be valid. IMO, it can.

Rand is an idiot and an open borders shill.

2ndA arguments regularly turn on whether nonviolent felon or 18 year old US citizens are part of “The People” covered by the 2ndA.

Invaders who aren’t even legal immigrants or visitors are NOT part of “The People”.

It is facially absurd to even consider if they are.
