This is how a democracy dies

This is one of the worst decisions ever in the Supreme Courts history.
Basically makes it legal for Trump to round up anyone not here legally and send them off in a matter of hours or days with no rights of any kind.
I'm near tears

1. Would it be effective if citizens changed their IRS withholding amounts to "99"? Would the Treasury not receive as much

$$ for the regime to spend?

[JMCKUSICK]

6. Interesting concept

[TnDem]

19. re: money

The Federal Reserve, (not "federal" and there is no reserve" BTW), prints money out of thin air with quantitative easing.

[SheltieLover]

2. Just a horrific decision!

[JMCKUSICK]

7. Sadly, I think it will be worse than we can imagine.

[SheltieLover]

9. I am afraid you are correct, John.

3. The law does not apply

if the federal government has permission to do anything it wants, what do we need a Supreme Court for?

[DENVERPOPS]

14. Exactly

Think of the Republicans in the U.S. House, and the U.S. Senate, and the entire U.S. Supreme Court Justices who are all enabling Trump and are all 100% in lock step with the Republican Party.

They are all so short sighted and/or stupid to realize THERE IS NO JUDICIAL OR LEGISLATIVE BRANCHES OF GOVT IN A TYRANNY/DICTATORSHIP.

18. The Supreme Court, just signed it's own demise.

Trump will have no need for a court after this. They’ve given him immunity from prosecution. They’ve taken away the rights of immigrants, this will also be used to get rid of American citizens. They’ve taken away women’s rights, now the senate may bow to him. If they do, he will dispense with them. Some of these idiotic lawmakers better develop some spines or they will find themselves extinct.

[stillcool]

20. that's just it...what do you need lawmakers for?

The GOP owns it all. Has nothing to do with spines. Just votes.

[Duncanpup]

4. FUCKERS!

[bdamomma]

10. SC

aiding and abetting in a coup against the US.

[erronis]

5. Since the thugs don't care about your stinking US citizenship, this applies to everyone.

How are you going to argue your case when you are in a pen with no access to phones, legal representation?

[J_William_Ryan]

8. It's codification of unitary executive dogma.

The president is not subject to the law; the president is above the law; the president may ignore the rule of law – in this case the right to due process.

It also runs counter to Plyler v. Doe, the 1982 decision striking down state laws that deny funding to public schools which provide education to undocumented migrant children, reaffirming that those undocumented are entitled to the right to due process and equal protection of the law.

[tavernier]

12. So will SCOTUS be allowed due process

once We The People have reclaimed our country? They will certainly plead for it, I bet.

[Duncan Grant]

13. It's time to throw a broomstick into the bicycle spokes.

Eventually, some very evil MBAs will make all of this cheaper and more efficient. Atrocities are inevitable.

[0rganism]

15. This is the opposition's call to arms. Past this point, only direct action by the people means anything.

Here's the question for anyone supporting this disaster to answer: how are you going to prove your citizenship on the spot to an armed man who hates your guts?

Without due process, the honor bond of our society's institutions, we are nothing beyond the tools in our hands and our willingness to use them.

Above all, do not let the ICE thugs or their allies transport you or anyone you care about anywhere, ever. Any business that hosts federal enforcers cannot be allowed to operate normally. If these agents of exile can do as they will, all is lost.

Oh, who am I kidding. We'll find a way to normalize this new circumstance like we always do. This is not a situation to be resolved internally, not anymore.

[Jit423]

16. Do the receiving countries have to take whomever we send to them? Can they refuse and sue the US?

[Skittles]

17. it's corruption

THEY ARE BEING PAID

[debm55]

21. Agree, Skittles

[ReRe]

22. "Disappearing People" legalized

Remember the date: June 23rd, 2025. The date that the SCOTUS legalized the disappearing of people. People as in you or me or anyone, for absolutely no reason. That is exactly where this is going. Period.
