An open letter to the U.S. Congress

The Constitution & Rule of Law are in peril. DEFEND THEM Use Byrd & impeachments

Kilmar Abrego Garcia is not home. Kristi Noem does not know what Habeas corpus is. Alina Habba oversaw a corrupt arrest on lying charges of a member of Congress. The Trump regime is defying court orders. Justice and the rule of law are in danger. I am alarmed by these developments and you should be too. Habeas corpus is the cornerstone of the Anglo-American legal tradition: it is the bulwark against tyranny. A senate-confirmed presidential appointee who cannot explain Habeas corpus and refuses to affirm it should not remain in office. Do your job: question her again and remove her if her defiance of the constitution persists. As acting U.S. attorney for the District of New Jersey, Alina Habba oversaw the charging of Rep. LaMonica McIver when the latter was carrying out her constitutional duty of oversight at an ICE facility. Publicly available video footage directed contradicts the concocted felony charges of assault. I am alarmed: you should be too. How would Congress react if this had happened under a Democratic administration? Kilmar Abrego Garcia is still unjustly imprisoned after unjust rendition in a foreign country. All in the Trump regime who are in contempt of court orders need to face consequences. It is for Congress to take action now. In less than six months, we have lost foundational liberties and the rule of law is in peril. International monitoring organisations now list the USA as a failed democracy. Our former allies are advising their citizens not to travel to the US. Congress can stop this. The congressional oath requires you to DEFEND the constitution against all enemies foreign and domestic. If Vladimir Putin made a wish-list it would include economic failure, civil strife, the dismantling of American science, medicine, agriculture and manufacturing. Trump's ruinous policies are serving those goals. I ask you to do your job: defend the constitution. Use all the tools at your disposal to compel Trump and his officials to obey the law and constitution. Subpoena, censure, and remove, all who undermine the rule of law. Honor the courage of those who died defending the constitution by finding your courage. That means impeaching and removing all who are shredding the constitution and the rule of law: Trump, Rubio, Noem, Bondi, Hegseth and RFK Jr to start. It also means inspiring on the Byrd rule in the senate.
