AND SPEAKING OF TORTURE AWARENESS

 The trump administration is again ramping up to send undocumented individuals to Guantanamo, according to Political:

The Trump administration is planning to dramatically ramp up sending undocumented migrants to Guantanamo Bay starting this week, with at least 9,000 people being vetted for transfer, according to documents obtained by POLITICO.

That would be an exponential increase from the roughly 500 migrants who have been held for short periods at the base since February and a major step toward realizing a plan President Donald Trump announced in January to use the facility to hold as many as 30,000 migrants.

TORTURE AWARENESS MONTH -PLEASE DONATE TO THE MEN HELD AT GUANTANAMO

 A little late on getting this posted but please remember the men that my government

illegally held- some for decades. It is difficult if not impossible for most of these men to put their lives 

back together because my government also labeled them "the worst of the worst." Even though

they were never charged with anything- nevertheless a crime.

 Annihilation of the now

Justinian in Corruption, Donald Trump, Roger Fitch Esq, US politics

Trump's campaign of destruction ... Fake emergencies ... Pointless and farcical executive orders ... Gangsterism ... Looting ... Corruption ... Shakedowns ... White rage ... Christian nationalism ... Roger Fitch unloads 

"Trump leaps from one impulsive, uninformed notion to another, unaware or unmoved by the harm he is inflicting. When reporters challenge him with facts, he often becomes irate ... The least informed, least curious, least logical, least credible, least responsible president in history is not about to change. He cares deeply about acquiring power to inflict harm, knowing nothing about the victims. After all, the recession won't affect him or his crypto-empire. What does he care if Americans bear the brunt of his unhinged behaviour?" - Jennifer Rubin, the Contrarian.

Donald Trump kept his campaign promise to be a "dictator on Day One". No longer an incipient fascist, he's an unabashed tyrant. His destruction of the existing order during his first 100 days has been described as "Roosevelt in reverse" and compared to the Chinese Cultural Revolution. His authoritarian actions are likened to those of Erdogan, a mad king or a Roman emperor (e.g, Augustus, smashing the Republic). 

 

Powered by fake "emergencies", Trump has "gone 1984". His Orwellian-titled executive orders are designed to destroy what they purport to protect, through (now) nonsense-named agencies like DOJ's "Civil Rights Division", dedicated to eradicating existing equal opportunities for women and minorities and abandoning enforcement of police reform consent decrees, while dismissing voting rights lawsuits

At Homeland Security, the "Office for Civil Rights and Civil Liberties" is stripping civil liberties from citizens and immigrants alike. The gutted Education Department's "Office of Civil Rights" is "rolling back" and "re-orienting", now targeting minorities. 

Trump's contempt for civil rights, culturemedialawyersjudges and universities (especially Harvard), along with unlawful tariffs, DOGE raids, cruelty (even to native Americans and children) and ultra vires deportations, are horrifying. 

America's self-destruction will get as bad as Americans allow; so far, they're responding as if in a Milgram Experiment.

Trump's first 100 days have come and gone. The Guardian reported on the 141 "Executive Orders" he signed. Law prof  Michael Dorf provided helpful "Can he actually do that?" comments on many of them.

These EO's, and those that followed, have been, by turns, silly (Ending Procurement and Forced Use of Paper Straws); propaganda (Reinvigorating America's Beautiful Clean Coal Industry; false declarations (Ending the Weaponization of the Federal Government); defamatory (Addressing Risks Associated with an Egregious Leaker and Disseminator of Falsehoods); vindictive (Rescinding Security Clearances …from Specified Individuals); and punitive, sanctioning Democrats' legal representatives.

Trump's executive orders directed towards individuals and their past actions are ex post facto, "Bills of Attainder" that are specifically prohibited under the constitution. 

Others are also clearly unconstitutional, such as Directing the Repeal of Unlawful Regulations, and revising supreme court precedent.

There's gratuitous meddling (Protecting Children from Chemical and Surgical Mutilation (not about male circumcision); union-busting (Limiting Lame Duck Collective Bargaining Agreements that Improperly Attempt to Constrain the New President); and open corruption (Pausing Foreign Corrupt Practices Act Enforcement…).

EO's are shameful and deadly (Withdrawing the US from and Ending Funding to …UN organizations and Reviewing US Support to All International Organizations); laughable (Eradicating Anti-Christian Bias); pointless (Designating English as the Official Language of the US); and alarming (Unleashing America's Law Enforcement). 

There's even "Restoring Truth and Sanity to American History". 

Imagine, Donald Trump lecturing on truth and sanity

Who drafts these EO's? Trump's "criminal defence counsel" in his felony cases, the front bench in his Justice Department, are now simply crime counsel, unscrupulous mob lawyers. 

In Trump's EOs, they have turned on their own tribe, the private bar, with tribute being exacted and paid, e.g, by big law firms whose business interruption insurance doesn't cover government libel, extortion and solicitation of bribes, secondary boycotts or pro bono shakedowns.
