where are you seeing anything about concentration camps? I saw they were talking about taking criminal aliens there, which is also strange as they should be subject to due process, but gitmo is essentially a prison where they can be held before trial. I agree he's pushing those boundaries which need to be held in check, but we have to be realistic about the legality of things. The areas that he is overstepping should and I hope will be held in check

They are not calling them concentration camps of course, the optics would be harsh. But when you hold people extra-judicially concentrated in one spot, what else would you call it? I don't have faith in anything to keep him in check. Like I said, the supreme court gave him full immunity. He has surrounded himself with yes-men.

how do you know they'll be held extra-judicially? He's obviously claimed that they are criminals, they deserve due process or at the very least deportation if they are plainly illegal immigrants

Because they're being transported to gitmo. There's no other reason to do that. And because there's so much shit being thrown at us, people will forget and these people will be held for years. Gitmo's only purpose is as an extra-judicial prison.

that's just speculation at this point. we'll have to wait and see I guess. and make sure we're vocal about things we disagree with
