They Draw First Blood? Trump Admin Eyes Habeas Corpus Suspension!

Invasion? They Call This An Invasion?

Heard about this White House deputy Stephen Miller flapping his gums about suspending habeas corpus. Habeas Corpus! Sounds like some kinda jungle vine you gotta hack through but it's supposed to be about keeping the government from locking you up without a good reason. They sayin' it's 'cause of an 'invasion' at the border. Invasion? I've seen invasions. This ain't an invasion. This is politics. And politics is war by other means but it's a war that normal people get caught in the crossfire of.

The Constitution: A Paper Tiger?

Miller says the Constitution is clear but they’re looking at options. Options? Seems to me the Constitution ain't a menu it's the law of the land. But what do I know? I'm just a grunt. But even I know a stacked deck when I see one. 'The Constitution is clear...' Famous last words right before they ignore it. They push you they push you until you give them war.

Do the Right Thing...Or Else

So apparently the President will decide based on whether the courts 'do the right thing'. The right thing? Meaning rubber stampin' every deportation order? Reminds me of a certain colonel back in 'Nam. 'Do as I say not as I do.' Power corrupts. Absolute power corrupts absolutely. Just because someone is powerful doesn't mean they are right. Remember that!

Magna Carta: History Lesson or Just History?

They even bringin' up the Magna Carta. Magna Carta! That's older than my knife! All this talk about rights and laws and they're about to throw it all out the window. "No man shall be arrested or imprisoned...except by the lawful judgment of his peers and by the law of the land," What happened to the law? Did it get lost in the jungle?

Opioids and Tariffs: Blame Game!

National emergency! Opioids! High tariffs! China Canada Mexico! Sounds like a bad action movie plot. Blaming everyone else but themselves. Always someone else's fault right? It's never about the people it's about power. And sometimes the only way to fight power is to become power. But I'm tryin' to walk away from that so...

Radical Rogue Judges and the Art of War

Miller's calling the judges 'radical rogue judges' at war with everyone. War? Sounds like he's looking for a fight. But I'm too old for this @!#$. But you know what? It ain't over 'til I say it's over! But hopefully it doesn't come to that. Let's hope everyone remembers the real enemy isn't each other. It's the ones who benefit from division.
