Beyond shameful!
NDAA shouldn’t even be with us; doesn’t seem Constitutional to me.
Still, due process is a cornerstone of our legal system, is it not? It is one of the few things that separates us from every other country.
The on going Maniforte case is how due process is corrupted.
Not unrelated, the turd in the punchbowl is how “unlawful enemy combatant” has been expunged from the lexicon.
It is the leftists who demanded even prior to 9/11/01 that those who clearly fall into that category be provided counsel and a trial. The uncomfortable fact, is even those who are citizens are clearly capable of causing mayhem.
Due process died, if you hadn’t noticed.
“...due process is a cornerstone of our legal system...It is one of the few things that separates us from every other country.”
Well spoken, sir. Look at Tommy Robinson in UK for an example of where it is not.
The new “Red Flag” laws are intended to deprive us of due process here in the U.S.
“Eternal vigilance is the price of Liberty”.
Well, yes and no to the slogan, we are a country off laws. We are a country of lawyers elected to represent the people who pass laws delaying justice in order to enrich their fellow brethren in the legal profession at the expense of the public to whom they continually lie. Murderers caught with multiple dead kids buried in their yard spend eons on so called death row being defended, and cared for at tax payers expense.
