“The Constitution is clear,” Miller told reporters outside the White House. “The privilege of the writ of habeas corpus can be suspended in a time of invasion. So, to say that’s an option we’re actively looking at … a lot of it depends on whether the courts do the right thing or not.”

“can be suspended during invasions” is one of those funny little clauses dotted along “”“liberal”“” states that reminds you that fascism deeply embedded into the system by design, and always as a protective measure for the status quo

Genuinely surprised no one in the US who was about to be a victim of state sanctioned kidnapping has decided death is preferable to CECOT and just started [redacted] ICE agents.

Depends on what you’re hoping to achieve. Victory and survival? Very unlikely if alone. Multiple casualties, a lifetime of trauma for the rest and a reason to think twice before kicking in the next door? Achievable alone with planning and drill, I think.

i don’t think most people have the energy to plot a rambo standoff with paramilitaries, who don’t generally announce what they’re doing in advance.

i’m not shittalking resistance, i promise, but we cannot expect people to spontaneously develop a consciousness and militancy, even in extreme conditions. that’s what organizing is for

Welcome to c/news! Please read the Hexbear Code of Conduct and remember… we’re all comrades here.

Rules:

-- PLEASE KEEP POST TITLES INFORMATIVE --

-- Overly editorialized titles, particularly if they link to opinion pieces, may get your post removed. --

-- All posts must include a link to their source. Screenshots are fine IF you include the link in the post body. --

-- If you are citing a twitter post as news please include not just the twitter.com in your links but also nitter.net (or another Nitter instance). There is also a Firefox extension that can redirect Twitter links to a Nitter instance: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/libredirect/ or archive them as you would any other reactionary source using e.g. https://archive.today/ . Twitter screenshots still need to be sourced or they will be removed --

-- Mass tagging comm moderators across multiple posts like a broken markov chain bot will result in a comm ban--

-- Repeated consecutive posting of reactionary sources, fake news, misleading / outdated news, false alarms over ghoul deaths, and/or shitposts will result in a comm ban.--

-- Neglecting to use content warnings or NSFW when dealing with disturbing content will be removed until in compliance. Users who are consecutively reported due to failing to use content warnings or NSFW tags when commenting on or posting disturbing content will result in the user being banned. --

-- Using April 1st as an excuse to post fake headlines, like the resurrection of Kissinger while he is still fortunately dead, will result in the poster being thrown in the gamer gulag and be sentenced to play and beat trashy mobile games like 'Raid: Shadow Legends' in order to be rehabilitated back into general society. --
