    A hearing is part of deportation.

    Without Due Process it’s literally just human trafficking, which is a felony in every single state.

      Without due process Trump would be in jail, so he’s very much aware if it’s importance.

      “Cannot give every person it wants to deport a trial” can be freely translated to “nobody would get deported”.

    As someone outside the US, I was told that people were very keen on keeping lots of guns to react in case the government tried to pull this kind of shit. When’s the part where they react?

    I’m sarcastic; I know why it isn’t happening, and realistically it would be a terrible thing, but, you know, we’re living in the weirdest time.

    That’s such a coincidence. Some guillotining could be done without trials too!

      “THERE were two “Reigns of Terror,” if we would but remember it and consider it; the one wrought murder in hot passion, the other in heartless cold blood; the one lasted mere months, the other had lasted a thousand years; the one inflicted death upon ten thousand persons, the other upon a hundred millions; but our shudders are all for the “horrors” of the minor Terror, the momentary Terror, so to speak; whereas, what is the horror of swift death by the axe, compared with lifelong death from hunger, cold, insult, cruelty, and heart-break? What is swift death by lightning compared with death by slow fire at the stake? A city cemetery could contain the coffins filled by that brief Terror which we have all been so diligently taught to shiver at and mourn over; but all France could hardly contain the coffins filled by that older and real Terror—that unspeakably bitter and awful Terror which none of us has been taught to see in its vastness or pity as it deserves.”

    Key words there being “it wants to deport”.

    The problem isn’t the trials, it’s the selection criteria.

        Articles of Impeachment need to be filed every week, add to the list of charges each time because there is plenty new every week.

          Records don’t mean shit when the ruling party is actively destroying records of things they don’t like. History is written by the victors, and it’s happening in real-time right now.

            I don’t have all the answers, but isn’t it obvious if the choice is Impeachment without removal vs no Impeachment? And the whole without removal isn’t even guaranteed.

              “impeachment without removal” is just performative showoff. Without removal, they’d continue to do as-do, and they’d even feel more emboldened (if that was still possible).

    Whattt? Is Trump saying that the US of A, the “greatest” country in the world, can’t engage in its secondmost favourite activity which is literally suing people?

    Not picking favourites, but the Biden administration, not even the Clinton administration, had this “skill issue”.
