If the Courts give Trump full authority to use the military to assist in rounding up migrants...

[kentuck]

He has effectively gained control of the military and his "coup" is complete, in my opinion.

He will use them to crack down on our citizens, especially Democrats.

His lawyers are telling the Courts that they have no authority to order him to do anything if they are in the lower courts, or even the appeals court. The only Court they "might" listen to is the Supreme Court. And they will not listen to the Supreme Court if they do not rule the way they want.

That seems to me to be where we are today?

Because if they are permitted to have the military in one state, they are permitted to have them in all the states.

1. Governor Newsom, take it to the Supreme Court. Please.

Get the traitors on the record.

2. Been saying this from the start

ICE is already targeted people who are not immigrants, that will be their primary purpose at some point, to detain and arrest Democrats.

If we don't stand up to ICE now, you and your loved ones will live under the threat of being sent to a foreign concentration camp in Libya, Rwanda, El Salvador, or any other hellhole.

5. According to Mierda47, they are $h1tholes. There, I fixed it. Have a great day. n/t

3. Did the trump admn do judge shopping for a favorable judge because...

it sure seems that some judges are facilitating his installation of fascis/Gestopo tactics.

And I'm certainly not sure or appealing to SCOTUS as six of thosse jurists ruled that he has immunity for 'official acts', which means to me he can commit crimes with impunity.

[moniss]

4. The eventual argument will also be that he his

immunity covers contempt of court also. So the SC effectively neutered itself. They may very likely keep this in place all the while Crumb The 1st is in office and then "magically" decide to restrict immunity once he's leaving. That leaving may be for a long time. I look for them to create a situation for themselves where they declare things are too messed up to hold an election. He will just declare it, the SC may rule against him and he will ignore it. I can easily see a much more expansive deployment of the military in the states. We are after all only 6 months in.

6. They won't listen to the SCOTUS

he's already made that clear with the Abrego Garcia case.

[kentuck]

8. I agree. They will not feel obligated to obey the Supreme Court.

Obviously the Courts do not see the danger if giving this authority to such a authoritarian figure. I had hoped for more from our Courts.

7. Trump is the Commander in Chief, he can do anything he wants pretty much.

Even if he couldn't use the national guard, he could use active military as he's already doing.

As far as I know, the military is just protecting the federal buildings. I have heard they have detained a few people and just handed them over to the police.

9. Well, well, well

Seems like it’s coming down to whether you want to live and die in a prison in a foreign country, or whether you want to live and die in America.

[NoMoreRepugs]

10. 15-20million CITIZENS need to be in the streets opposing this DICKWAD.

Numbers matter.

[Hekate]

11. Ahem. We have been. I hope you have shown up as well.

[NoMoreRepugs]

13. Have been out. Saying we need 10-15million people at a time out on the streets - not over time.

[kentuck]

12. He will test the limits of their ruling.

He may try to arrest a "big name" Democrat?

I suppose it has crossed the mind of Hillary Clinton, Barack Obama, Joe Biden, Governor Walz, Kamala Harris, and a few others?

It is like giving matches to a pyromaniac.

[rampartd]

14. they want to "liberate california from its 'socialist" govt"
